Russian nursery school children taught to fly drones — The Telegraph Militarisation of the classroom suggests Moscow is bracing for a protracted conflict

I cannot even with this story

Ah. It took a hit in the recent winds. Maybe I could shore it up for a bit

huh, overnight too? its the night temps I'm afraid of..

oh, and there is no money to replace it or officer time to do the Epstein style redactions. Yeah, I guess so. Who would be a councillor? it's a serious of impossible choices...

Gardeners of bluesky, when are we putting tomatoes in greenhouses? Thermometer said -0.8, but I have leggy triffids in my house...

Longest week ever. And it's only Tuesday. If anyone has any adulting tips, I'm all ears. Those bank holidays can't come soon enough.

Can't the council redact addresses on the internet, but make them available in person/ to developers/ officers? There has to be a happy medium here..

Homes not lab space. Thank you Oxford Lib Dems. I also note support for a city centre playground and (this should not be radical), public toilets..

Ironically, I got my child's long (long long long) awaited EHCP the day this was published. I advocate loudly - I dread to think how tough it must be for someone who doesn't know how to do this. Keep pushing @oxfordshirecc.bsky.social and @libdemsoxon.bsky.social Continued progress is much needed.

Oh.

TFW you sidegigged too hard in the morning, sprinted for the train and are turning up at work with wonky train makeup slightly sweaty and unbrushed hair. WHY AM I LIKE THIS?!

Nah you’re right though. I did start back too fast after winter. Also I cram too much stuff in to my life…

Thank you Oxford Mail for publishing my letter. Fed up of candidates promising things their council has no chance of delivering in an attempt to get elected. It’s wrong.

I am still broken from the weekend’s allotment efforts. any recovery tips welcome. This could be a long season.

Cycle commute lessons. Today I used about four times as much makeup setting spray as I thought I needed and the full face has stayed in place. So there’s a thing. Sharing in case anyone else needs to know.

TFW you run out of energy halfway through the job

Just me and my lil’ hoe. #outdoorgym #allotmentlife

Fear of the plot inspection. Still. Spuds are in. #allotmentlife
