On 23 Dec 2025, #UKgovt lost a huge #Judo contest. #GretaThunberg used the #UKgovt's own power against it.

In July, the UK banned #PalestineAction as " #terrorist". Arrests for supporting PA total ~2,500, mostly older people. #Greta is the latest.

UK public opinion opposes the arrests. But Greta's fame takes the disdain global.

If Greta is convicted, the UK globally looks cruel. If she is acquitted or uncharged, it globally looks weak.

The UK govt has trapped itself, with no way out. #ukpol

As Tokyo welcomes the Deaflympics — a century-old celebration of Deaf culture and sport — Japan is starting to listen to calls for improved inclusivity. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/sports/2025/11/15/tokyo-deaflympics-deaf-athletics/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #sports #deaflympics #disability #sports #paris #paralympics #tokyo #judo

Went to first Judo class last night. They spent the time getting me to practice breakfalls as expected but beyond that I felt just as lost as at my first BJJ class. I like that Judo gyms are nonprofits - only $40/month! Also has a very cozy community service vibe which is different from BJJ gyms I've been to. Think I'll focus on Judo for a bit before finding a BJJ gym.

Turns out there's a good judo gym near-ish my Seattle apartment so maybe I'll mix in a class there once a week. Would be fun to go back to BJJ and absolutely launch people lol
