Felt the same about the UK yesterday

*Four Seasons Landscaping gets ready*

I mean the most reassuring thing I take for this is that the US has a series of democratic checks and balances in place to prevent one man from making a unilateral decision to take it into a war..

I just want to say for the record that when the history books are written centuries from now, I believe the election of Donald Trump in a free and fair election in 2024 will go down as one of the most senseless and self-destructive own goals in human history

New Alien Earth trailer was very intriguing too

The current slightly 'can't really bothered' SW branding is beginning to look tired and shabby

Deliverance is still the album that kept the Sabbath dream alive (to paraphrase the Workhorse movement) that everyone sleeps on..

Absolutely agree. I still have a mental block around semis being at Wembley though. Feels strange somehow

Well, at least the drummer will ne solid..

Seeing them for the first time in May (possibly about 30 years late to the party but nevermind!)

Absolutely legendary tune

Such beautiful floof!

Its slightly baffling how the US can be so concerned with Harry's visa application when they voted Trump, a man found liable for sexual abuse, into the White House

The value of our psychology team is not really captured in the data that the hospital routinely uses. Our work is often more behind the scenes, quieter, unmeasured. I'm usually ok with that- it's realistic, but it can seem like we're not contributing to the metrics, & this makes us a bit vulnerable.

Poverty is as much a causes as a consequence of mental ill health.

We therefore need a trauma informed approach to poverty as much as a poverty informed approach to mental ill health.

Essentially at any moment we're about 30 mins away from America going full Fahrenheit 451 aren't we..

It's nearly 5am and Republicans just rammed through their pro-billionaire, anti-middle class budget blueprint.

In order to pass massive tax giveaways for billionaires, they're going to defund Medicaid, slash veterans benefits, & force kids to go hungry.

Make sure everyone knows it.

Trump fires Black joint chiefs chair Hegseth accused of promoting diversity US secretary of defense had questioned whether history-making air force general CQ Brown Jr got job because of race

How's that descent into white rule going America? This is utterly terrifying.

I guess like other providers they still rely on the Openreach infrastructure which can be the speed decider. I think they have a 'what speed can you give me' tester on their website

If its broadband only, I've been with Zen for the past few years and they've been very good. Small provider with good customer service

@foldfm.bsky.social are unmatched right now. Truly special music

Trump presumably projecting in anger because hasn't yet been able to resolve his unrequited love for Putin, or figure out a way of dismantling democracy enough to allow him to continue in office for eternity as per the Vlad playbook. Well not yet anyway.

Not a band I've listened to - thanks for the tip! New album is great 👍

Such an beautifully idiosyncratic soundtrack, veers from the metal of power mad, by way of Chris Isaak dropping a worldie and landing on Duke Ellington..

um

Kinda wish the “no universal healthcare” energy matched the “no tik tok” energy

Just a dystopian nightmare dropping on a Monday lunchtime

Goodnight 'Land of the Free', stay safe

YESS! And let's not forget the one time home of Mr Barney Greenway.
