need a way to convey "I do not want any part of the country, no matter how red they voted, to suffer a devastating natural disaster; however, if you're wringing your hands over federal cuts to meteorology infrastructure after making 'both parties are the same and voting is stupid and things have gotten worse for me under Biden [mentions 20 things that are explicitly state-level and come from a particularly brutal republican governor and majority]' posts all last year I do hope you get struck by lightning or a really big hailstone while everyone else around you is miraculously spared" but like. shorter.

At long last, R Kelly may be held accountable for the decades of abuse he’s inflicted on girls and women. To the reporters who have spent nearly two decades of their career at this point pursuing justice, to the activists/organizers at #MuteRKelly, and to the countless others who have worked tirelessly to make this moment possible, thank you.

And to the victims, past and present, I wish you healing and strength during this process. “No matter what happens, we stand with you.”

This is Alice Mpofu-Coles, a 53-year-old activist and PhD research student at the University of Reading who also volunteers with refugees. 

She told BuzzFeed News that the book is made up from extracts of a journal she wrote during her struggle with breast cancer. She’s been writing it for over 10 years.

A former Zimbabwean diplomat who came to the UK as a refugee herself in 2002, Mpofu-Coles was diagnosed with breast cancer in 2007.

She had lost her brothers, parents and first husband in a short space of time, and her daughters – Michelle, 26, and Tadiwa, 21 – were still young.

“I started writing into a journal daily about how I feel. I didn’t have many people to talk to so I just used to write talking to God,” she told BuzzFeed News.

“It is a mini bio about the struggle with breast cancer: the resilience, the support, the doctors, the lows and ups, the reflection [on] my childhood,” she said, adding that it also looks at how she coped with the deaths of her husband and family.

The book, called ‘Dear God From Your Poached Egg Breast’, also covers her time as a female civil servant and diplomat for Zimbabwe’s government, working and studying through cancer treatment and chronic pain, and contains “an infusion of African innuendos to 'Dear God…’” she said.

Apple: Literally design their phones to become an expensive toxic brick within a few years

Gas Companies: Actively work to prevent anything being done to develop, promote or in any way make green energy sources widely known of available or affordable to anyone because slowly murdering the planet makes them millions of dollars

Big Companies: Literally dump toxic crap where it will cause serious harm to the earth and the species on it

Governments: Clearly what we need to do to save the earth is make people pay money to use carrier bags so they can actually carry their shopping home
