How would increasing and improving the council housing stock be paid for when there's fewer rents coming in and the council was forced to make a loss on the property sales? Right to buy was the largest privatisation in British history, a huge transfer of public wealth to private hands

Why was it a great idea? What was so wrong with people living long term in publicly owned housing and paying a fair and stable rent, knowing that they won't have to be their own facilities manager or take on the liability of a property owner?
women were kept out of meetings and career opportunities at Pixar because John Lasseter was so much of a sex pest that people decided it was easier to simply not have them in the room with him
how many talented women didn’t get a fair chance because one guy couldn’t behave himself?
Whether you use the app or browser doesn't make much difference to the security of your account. Make sure your account email address is one you keep an eye on, have 2-factor authentication turned on, and use a strong unique password (and a password manager)
It’s a good day for everyone to turn on two factor verification on Bluesky.
Also on all your other online accounts.
But Trump and Hegseth are not committing war crimes and threatening genocide because they decided it was the best way to distract from their *real* agenda. They are doing it because this is how they understand power, how they want to exert power, how they feel powerful.
He's really not a fan of informed consent is he
A powerful man sexually pursuing a young woman who works for him is oppressive. It immediately limits and reshapes her future to her detriment, whether she is physically forced into it or not. It’s coercion either way, and that is why it’s so wrong. It’s an abuse of power.
Young Wes here is just Union-questioning and we shouldn't be encouraging unionist-identifying biological politicians to make misguided statements in case they later change their minds. It would be best to let a natural referendum take its course rather than blocking it because of union ideology
He really just can’t stand it that Iran thought of the toll-collecting grift before he did.
Blowing so hard you propel your whole face through the tube like the world's most surprising peashooter
My phone helpfully 'corrected' your name in the alt text, sorry
Photo of someone playing an enormous alphorn, a big horn shaped instrument twice as long as the player is tall. Ignore the alamy watermark, that must have appeared on Lorna's photo by mistake
(found your original, the internet never forgets)
This is even funnier now the original picture is deleted
Have to say
Many thanks to @sophiemolly.co.uk and those wonderful citizen journalists and editors at @northwestbylines.co.uk for helping me publish this.
Putting "just a man" in your bio is a bit unnecessary when you're out there posting shit like this
True, although she's far from the only person defending the guy. Some are dressing it up as "he shouldn't have to resign unless he's found guilty of a crime" (and of course there's a lot of men saying "well these women should just have reported it to police at the time if it was a big deal")
When Trump or his pals want to smear someone they shout about it in advance and do the smearing loudly and publicly. They don't sneakily pay off two dozen committed democrat activists to make claims against a rando primary candidate
Campism has really cooked a lot of blue wave folks' brains to the point where they're reflexively defending sexual predators and mercenaries with nazi tattoos rather than simply ditching those guys and moving on to support other candidates in the primaries
People simply cannot help answering the question as if "really bad film" means "film I personally dislike"

Akaleven - American? They don't accept any god besides Trump
Probably trying to replace the Pope with their own just like they want to for the Greenlanders.
i have very rapidly become incapable of thinking about anything that isn’t this video
Yes, the Grink was there. I'm getting to that. He was on that island with me. And I wouldn't be alive to tell my story without him.
Correct! It's a walnut
One of Saturn's small inner moons from two angles. It looks like a ilttle circular ravioli or pirogi. This one is named Pan, which is also something you could cook a ravioli in.
why didn't anybody tell me that saturn has "ravioli moons"? WHY DIDN'T THEY TELL ME ABOUT THE RAVIOLI MOONS?
All of these pictures of the moon from Artemis are amazing, but y'all should really be including alt-text on them.
