1/4. JDA told 35 very sick men in Granville Motel, Port Moresby, to go back to Manus because of #APEC. Our medical treatment will stop for 1 month until APEC finishes.
In the last 2 weeks #JDA told 35 sick men to agree to return to #Manus be forced back by armed police at 2am
2/4. Yesterday Sandra Furphy said to 15 of the men on her list, 'are you ready to go back #Manus or not? If not maybe something bad will happen and police will come at 2 o'clock in the morning for you. It's better you go back Manus, so it's not forced.'
3/4. Some #Manus men on her list have been very sick for a long time who always need to be near hospital and doctors. Other the sick men on the list only arrived in last few weeks for urgent treatment and some are still waiting for treatment to start.
4/4. We don’t know why we will be forced back to #Manus. Maybe so Granville Motel can accommodate #APEC visitors. Or maybe so #PIH hospital does not have to treat us during APEC. Or maybe Australia does not want APEC visitors to see how sick we are. t.me/ManusAlert

Australia paid #JDA $15,489,956.23 this year but they do nothing for us except bully us to stop medical treatment.
Nobody has settled in PNG.

1/3 URGENT Please help us.
At 4am tonight and tomorrow night they will come & take sick refugees to #Manus from Port Moresby.
There is a new list of about 30 names.
Immigration said that they will come with about 100 police.
They were very violent on Friday.
2/3 Early Friday morning, 17 cars brought police, navy & immigration to violently force 16 men from their beds & escort to the airport. One man was hurt so badly he couldn't go to #Manus & is still in hospital, seriously injured.
Don't let them attack us again.
3/3 Men who are very sick are also now very afraid because in a few hours 100 police will come.
We are remembering when they attacked us in Lombrum #Manus. It is the same.
Please pray for us.

1/4 14 men were forced from Port Moresby back to #Manus today by police & immigration. We believe 50 sick men total will go back because PIH Hospital has a contract to be health provider to APEC. PIH is sending us back because of contract to treat APEC delegates & workers.
2/4 #JDA said sick men may return to Pom from #Manus & be treated by #PIH in a month. We have also been told that there will be no medical treatment in Port Moresby for us until next year.
3/4 We are suffering mentally very much. It is 1 year since the #Manus Lombrum Blockade. We suffered trauma because of the cruelty & attacks upon us. Many men feel no hope. 3 men tried to kill themselves in last 24 hours. We saved them.

So, I've waded through the Evangelical Alliance's new pastoral "guidelines" for interacting with trans people (ughh, the things I do to expose #transphobic #ciswits to the world), and let's just say it's time to tear this particular sh*t-bag a new hole.

So, straight off the bat, first page of text, the use of #language is . . . well, yeah, see for yourself:

"It is important to remember that transgender is not simply an issue to be debated;" - p5, #Transformed

*sigh*

When such language gets reinforced by insisting...

1/12 #APEC media: Australia paid many $Billions to private companies #IHMS & #PIH to provide limited medical services to #Manus refugees for 5+ years. Nothing to upgrade Manus Island Lorengau Hospital that’s a run-down, little provincial hospital servicing an entire community.
2/12 When #Manus refugees need X-rays, scans, dental treatment, surgery, emergency services, in-patient or out-of-hours services, they are sent to #Lorengau Hospital. This strains the already overburdened island health service. #APEC has triggered a Manus health services crisis.
3/12 While 5 critically ill refugees remain, PIH hospital Port Moresby discharged all PNG patients & cancelled dozens of sick refugees’ treatment. PIH/Australia refugee contract conflicts with preferred #APEC provider role. Dozens of sick refugees were forced to return to #Manus.

A key insight for me has been to understand ideology—religion, philosophy, and politics—in terms of biological metaphors. When I say “memetics,” this is what I mean. Ideas are an emergent layer on top of humans, related the way that biology is related to chemistry
No analogy is perfect and we risk confusion if we extend the metaphor too far. E.g., biological entities do not form symbiotic relationships with chemicals, but humans do something approaching symbiosis with ideas
On the other hand, concepts like mimetic desire are quite like chemical reactions from the meme’s perspective

[ YOONKOOK AU 🔞 ]

yoongi and jungkook hate each other but jungkook’s boyfriend is roommates with yoongi, so they’re forced to see each other everyday. one day they drunkenly hook up at a party and continue to hook up behind jungkook’s boyfriend’s back.

- smut 🔞

- angst
- cheating
- top ! yg
- bottom ! jk

♡ please don’t reply to the thread, just rt/quote!
It was a perfect night to attend a party. The sky was clear, the winds were calm, and it was the weekend. The only downside to it all was that Jungkook’s boyfriend was throwing it in his apartment. The apartment he shared with Min Yoongi.

"Please, if you are reading this, tell the Australian Government that we need urgent medical care for our brother Abdi. This is his knee broken since Friday, still no medical care."

Via ManusAlert on Telegram (1/n)
"Abdi, a Somalian man, was playing soccer on the ELRTC soccer field at 6:00pm on Friday,27/7/18, when he collided with another man. Nothing has been done to help fix Abdi’s broken knee because there are not proper medical facilities to treat us."

Via ManusAlert Telegram #Manus
"He can’t sleep, can’t sit well, and no staff care about him.
Because the accident was late & the hospital has no doctor at night and because the PIH clinic is closed then too, he could not have any treatment on Friday night."

Taekook AU! Guk is known to be the best & most wanted badboy in the campus. A funny, relax & cunning guy that likes the attention, as much as he hates the goody two shoes, lit teacher's pet, Kim Taehyung. But what happens when badboy witnesses goodboy being taken advantage off.
Jeongguk leans back on his chair, eyes glued to the wall clock in front of the class above their professor's head. It was almost lunch and he coulndt wait to get out of class. Why? Simple, its because-
"Jeon, are u even listening?" A voice snaps at him, making him instantly frown
With all the fucking students in their class, why the hell does he have to be paired up with him. Of all people. He simply ignores him, eyes still glued to the clock as if the nuisance was even there to begin with. Like hell, he'll rather be buried ten feet on the ground than
