Pornhub is deleting videos with 'sleep/sleeping' in the title and now sends a warning message about how the content is illegal/nonconsensual when people search for sleeping videos
Thank you to Gisele Pelicot and every woman who's fought to make this world a safer place for women
Gisele Pelicot, whose husband drugged her and allowed different men to rape her over the course of 10 years, is holding a public trial and allowing her name to be published, even though she didn't have to.
Her husband wished for a private trial, which would have allowed their names to remain anonymous, but she wanted to shame the men who have raped her and hold them responsible publicly for what they've done.
She told the court that she hopes her testimony might help spare other women from similar ordeals. She said she pushed for the trial in open court in solidarity with other women who go unrecognized as victims of sexual crimes.
Her strength is so unbelievable.

Butterflies will sometimes land on a Caiman and drink its salty, crocodile tears to in order to survive. This helps the Caiman to feel both less sad and more fabulous.

.@GillianKeegan we think you meant:
Every day, Government underfunding of our schools is causing disruption to our childrenβs education.
Children should not have to learn in crumbling buildings, in huge classes, taught by teachers not qualified in their subjects, without textbooks or other resources. Iβm announcing I will properly engage with @NEUnion to solve the crisis in our schools. #ValueEducation

25 yrs ago today in Buffy history, our hero was depressed and alone in LA working at a diner where she ran into Lily-formely-Chantarelle-soon-to-be-Anne then caused an uprising at a factory in a hell dimension while brandishing a hammer & sickle - and the s3 premiere "Anne" aired

Not one mention of the catastrophic flooding in Libya at PMQs.
Where is the concern for the victims of fires in Europe or the droughts across Africa?
Where is the outrage at fossil fuel giants destroying our planet?
Where is the hope for future generations?
Wake up!

Chronic underfunding of education is leaving our school buildings unsafe and literally crumbling around pupils and staff. To add insult to injury Government has announced it wonβt be covering the costs of dealing with this emergency β just how will this crisis be resolved with no additional money? How important is pupil safety to this Government? #ValueEducation

The govt has waited until the end of the summer holidays to communicate with school leaders that they must close parts or all of their school. It has refused to publish the list list of schools in danger and has racked up an 11.4bn bill for school rebuilding/repair. Disgraceful.

Some species of gray langurs have a special relationship with Spotted Deer
They notify each other when predators approach
In return, the langurs give the deer fruit from tall trees the deer canβt reach
This type of relationship is called mutualism

Eton gets Β£30,000+ a year from you in subsidies to provide 24/7 care for rich kids aged 11+ for 320 days a year.
The poorest state schools get Β£5,500.
Why are we paying to house and look after the children of the richest?
While not providing for our own?

Our government is so deluded that 40% of its MPs believe we can avoid catastrophic climate breakdown... by continuing to make it worse.
That is completely insane.
If you hadn't yet released, no one is coming to save us. No one. They are criminally out of their depth.
