We Are the Beautiful Ones

I haven’t been able to stop thinking about a piece of 1960s mouse sociology . (A sentence I never thought I’d write. And yet, here we are.) It all started when I was at home, doomscrolling on Instagram , and a video about a mouse utopia hijacked my feed. In 1968, an ethologist named John B. Calhoun built a perfect world. He called it “ Universe 25 .” It was a sterile Eden , engineered for perfection: unlimited food, no predators, no disease. Its purpose was to answer a haunting question.

Policies introduced under the banner of reform have created a perfect storm of poverty, despair and preventable deaths. The gap between the support offered and the real cost of livin...

Write to Your MP – Demand Action on Gaza

If you’re heartbroken by the humanitarian crisis in Gaza and want to make your voice heard, here’s a letter you can send to your MP. Feel free to copy, adapt, and share. To: [Your MP’s Name] House of Commons London SW1A 0AA Subject: Gaza Starvation and Siege. A Humanitarian Catastrophe Demands Action Dear [MP’s Name], I am writing to you as one of your constituents, deeply alarmed by the ongoing humanitarian catastrophe in Gaza. This is not about religion or politics. It is about fundamental human rights, the denial of food, water, medical care, and safety to over two million people. Children are dying of hunger. Civilians are being killed while seeking aid. Hospitals and clinics have been bombed. Medical workers have died while trying to save lives. Homes, schools, and shelters have been destroyed. As of 28 July 2025, over 59,900 Palestinians have been killed and more than 145,000 injured, including many women and children. Starvation and malnutrition have claimed at least 147 lives, ...
