Has anyone here ever donated a platelet of blood in the UK? I'm considering it (after Ramadan obvi) as apparently my blood type is needed but ngl, bit nervous. Donating normally can leave me a little light headed 🌚

Don't get wrong, happy to have this in case of emergency.
Just worried, that there is a need for this at all.
Also, the chances of me forgetting about this and having a heart attack are quite high🥴

verbal and emotional abuse are HUGE red flags. we need to have this conversation more often

I am glad to see a young woman seeing a red flag for exactly what it is and doing the right thing. I am sad her parents are trying to urge her to betray herself. I am delighted she is this wise.

This game is so stressful. On the one hand, I want England to beat France. On the other hand, I want Morocco to have a chance of beating France. Either way, I want France to lose 🤠

Since ’s #farhafilm has ignited a global debate around the Nakba (catastrophe) I thought I’d share an Al Nakba 101 🧵. Context: I have a degree in Palestinian & Zionist political history. I speak Hebrew and I lived in Palestine. 🇵🇸🏡

#MexicoVsArgentina is such an intense game. Mexico are playing super well but Argentina is something else 🔥
The Martin Bashir episode of might be the first time in a while, that I've watched something so uncomfortably. I know it's partial fiction but it does well in illustrating how he was able to manipulate her insecurities into a salacious piece. Really feel for her.

The current Chancellor telling the truth on fracking...
Quote Tweet
The wholesale price of gas has *quadrupled* in UK and Europe.
Additional UK production won’t materially affect the wholesale market price.
This includes fracking – UK producers won’t sell shale gas to UK consumers below the market price. They’re not charities.

Liz Truss' first act as PM is to oppose a windfall tax on the oil and gas giants making £170bn in excess profits.
Instead, she wants the British people to foot the entire bill for her energy package.
She stands up for the vested interests, not ordinary people.

It's like watching a candidate from The Apprentice, going through the interviews episode. Just frankly painful to watch.
The way I am so done with & their lack of service. Booked tickets over the phone in July and I still keep having to call them to resolve issues whilst *still* not having the correct passenger info online and still no email confirmation.

One of the things I love the most is when you're at jalsa and you meet an old childhood friend, you haven't seen in donkey years. Amazing.

Your friendly local Muslim & lawyer AGAIN reminding you that Islam permits abortion for a variety of reasons & keeps that healthcare decision between a woman & her loved ones & doctor.
Stop using our faith as your punchline. Call this for what it is—100% ‘Christian’ nationalism.

Another significant loss for the Palestinian people and democracy. The list is long, brutal and cruel.
