5 wildlife-killing balloons in every free @ComicRelief fundraising pack + option to buy more. Plastic pollution on a monumental scale and an embarrassing lack of environmental awareness from an organisation that should know better shop.comicrelief.com/categories/fun… #RedFaceDay #RedNoseDay
There must be dozens of celebrities that campaign for the environment and fund-raise for @comicrelief. Somebody please have a word about the balloons. @LennyHenry @ferrifrump @JuliaBradbury @ChrisGPackham @BillOddie @Dawn_French #balloonsblow
So @ComicRelief are knowingly putting animals at risk with balloons. That is disgraceful. telegraph.co.uk/news/earth/agr… #RedNoseDay
We're urging @EmmaFreud to take urgent action on this issue. Did the 'Blue Planet Effect' completely bypass you? #RedNoseDay @OurBluePlanet @BBCEarth

Let's hit Japan hard and make them rethink their decision to leave the IWC and resume whaling. Join us in protesting the @RugbyWC_2019 and @Tokyo2020. 💥🐋 @iwc_int @rugbyworldcup @Olympics

More of why #InspirationPorn is harmful to disabled folks: In TV/films, you rarely see us disabled go through 100s of appts, procedures, hospital stays, insurance fights, alone. Reality: the scariest times, we endure alone. But “too much” medical care/loneliness wouldn’t sell.
So disabled folks are surrounded by false societal projections foisting bad expectations on us. If we need high care or loved ones aren’t present for that care, it’s projected as “wrong” and the wrong is with us. Not with media, medicine, ableds for failing disabled reality.
Some ableds do this deliberately bc actual disability discomforts them. A film will only show one infusion, a show will cut various appts (even medical shows) bc disabled plots are so focused on answers or “getting better,” when many disabilities have no cure, don’t get better.

Ranking of different foods/commodities by #environmental footprints changes based on production differences, but also based on the assumptions of the modeler(s) and the functional unit (denominator of the footprint). Here's global livestock with crude protein as the denominator
Here's a UK specific example using nutrient density as the functional unit where beef has a lower carbon footprint than chicken.
Here's a ranking using essential amino acids as the functional unit that shows beef with less land use than peas.

@KatherineFaire1 @FewingsBj @notesforreview No pressure at all. 🙂

Gather around children, Uncle Paul has a little story to tell.

No! Wait! Don’t block me! I’ll be pretty quick. Promise.
@KatherineFaire1 @FewingsBj @notesforreview Back in the olden days when the internet was just a pup, there was no Twitter, Facebook or Google. Even MySpace (RIP) wasn’t invented then.

They were dark days, my friends. “Just Jeeves” and “Alta Vista” were crappy search engines plagued by porn pop-ups. #embarrassing
@KatherineFaire1 @FewingsBj @notesforreview Correction. Hashtags weren’t even invented then. #darkdaysmyfriends

Okay, are you ready for a tale of tragedy, comedy and mice?

We have another story, and you’ll be glad you came for the ride:
(if you’ve been following us for 2+ years you’ll have heard this one already. Sue us.)
A few years ago we realised the museum was – among many other things – ‘too brown’, so we had a makeover.

As in, rip-out-the-organs-dust-down-the-bones-and-start-again makeover.

Fundraising tip:

Immediately after a meeting, write down every question that was asked - to the word. It feels tedious but it's the fastest way to improve your pitch.
Second fundraising tip:

Number your slides. Not even joking.
Third fundraising tip:

Prepare for questions more than you prepare your "pitch." You're not giving a TED talk.
