'believe survivors' doesn't mean 'believe the victims only when they're women' or 'why would they want money for damages' or 'his music was really good though' or 'but he had a hard life too' or or or or
in the private sector i think i averaged 0.94% since covid - during which inflation has been insane. My salary should have been 45% higher to keep pace , instead i've gotten around half that from being promoted into a new job. The UK's wage stagnation is a real problem.
This species is now listed as a species of “Least Concern” according to the IUCN–a powerful reminder that policy and action can make real change.
Choosing sustainable seafood protects the ocean and people who depend on it.

Hyper Terrain Markup Language?
A footpath sign, with angle brackets serving as arrows on each side of the words "foot path", so the end result looks like an XML or HTML tag.
Hoping there's another sign at the end labelled </FOOT PATH>
Meanwhile the other parties just don't think we exist.
💯 this, the greens had my support long before labour cocked up everything because the only party who seems to care about our village, even before she was elected is the local green councillor. She sends out regular newsletters with content based on problems people have raised and what she is doing.
I have gluten free snacks and a sleepy pile of determination!
I have survived most of the day! Now just to survive 3.5hrs of train and taxi to home...
(my actual factual opinion on AI is going to remain: you don't get to steal other people's work and then charge for it, you skeezy ass motherfuckers.
since I don't have time to deep dive every single model to see if they trained it ethically, I opt out until we've resolved this situation.)
Somehow I suspect these types have never cooked food themselves and don't get the entire concept of eating without someone else making it.
Lettuce hope.
A very special Happy Earth Day to everyone posting AI generated "happy earth day" graphics. Amazing job. You definitely get it.

This is going down a dangerous path
An Egyptian funery technician cuts a few corners to save on costs and 1600 years later they're finally getting exposed as a shoddy operator, except everyone thinks it's really cool.
His full name is David Lubega Balemezi. "Lou Bega" is just his little bit of moniker.
Well attempting to get back to my hotel in London at 10pm on a tube strike day has been an adventure for sure. So far 39 mins walking , one bus for 20 mins and another 29 mins walk to go!
8% of adults in England and Wales faced domestic violence last year. A quarter of those were stalked by the perpetrator.
And the council still insists on publishing names and addresses together on the internet, except for its councillors, due to, you know, the risks
The social media pivot from chronological timelines to popular-first was done at least partly to throttle real time organizing
UK HE, everyone. Will Labour ever acknowledge this crisis?
This is the crux for me. It’s not about whether Starmer knew about the failed vetting; it’s that Starmer created a situation where the appointment didn’t allow for failed vetting
A clip from The New York Times reads: "But only the entities that officially paid the tariffs are eligible to recover that money. That means that the fuller universe of people affected by Mr. Trump’s policies — including millions of Americans who paid higher prices for the products they bought — are not able to apply for direct relief. The extent to which consumers realize any gain hinges on whether businesses share the proceeds, something that few have publicly committed to do. Some have started to band together in class-action lawsuits in the hopes of receiving a payout."
The average American family paid $1,700 in tariffs last year, according to the bipartisan Congressional Joint Economic Committee. Few will ever see any of that money back. The refunds will go to companies, if doled out at all. What a joke.

Surveying the two dominant strands of the timeline today... "Ousting an unpopular PM is a bit like arriving at the airport for a flight. Sure, doing it too early has some costs, but..."
VERY COOL PERSON: It's four-twenty, you know what that means?
ME: Hell yeah! [starts shoving blackbirds into a pie]
