  • I had a conversation about this with a friend who is racially marginalised but white passing a few weeks ago. She is dating a non-white passing person of colour and it seems very frustrating because she doesn’t feel able to talk about it without complaining to someone who has a worse experience of it.



  • I got into trains because knowing what train is coming at a specific time means being able to pick the one with AC and phone chargers or comfy seats.

    I hate BR Class 150 so much. I actually preferred the 142 because it felt so old that it was like riding on a heritage railway. The 150 is just shit.




  • It depends on the circumstances but most of the time you will want grey. If you are in a big bloc who have experience protesting, know police strategy, have a decent (protest experienced) lawyer and police station support lined up, know each other well, and are likely to do things like break police lines and want to make it harder for cops to identify which person that is, its perfect.





  • I feel this. I’m arguably one of the biggest gossips I know. I hang out with (mostly) neurodivergent people and have friends who just don’t feel comfortable doing it because people are shitty to them when they do it, which is a bit of a shame.

    Gossiping can be useful to identify trends and wider feelings among people. It recently actually really seems to have helped my friends identify that a particular man they hang out with tends to make the women around him feel unsafe.
