Night night sweet dreamies

Amor Fati

This phrase means embracing everything the good, the bad, the painful, as necessary parts of your story. It’s not just acceptance, it’s choosing to love what shaped you.

Some things didn’t happen to break you. They happened to build you.

Good morning and welcome to Fish For Tea Friday

Lemonading πŸ‹

Choosing optimism when things don’t go to plan.
Seeing obstacles as training, setbacks as feedback, and delays as preparation.

Not every detour is a dead end, sometimes it’s just a better route.

I couldn’t possibly undertake station Pawtrols, I am busy giving Tuffty their station induction

By induction I mean testing how resilient his head is against my teeth

If we want a stable, secure, peaceful world, our governments should support democracy and self-determination everywhere, whether or not they agree with what the people want. Instead, for centuries, they have attacked democracy and self-rule, and we all live with the consequences.

We remain remarkably, dangerously ignorant of such histories, treating every event as if it came out of the blue. Again and again our governments wade in, with their bombs and missiles and special forces, and congratulate themselves on their strategic brilliance, only to create further crisis.

This is a classic example of Imperial Blowback. Foreign powers, seeking to shape the world to their demands, destabilise and overthrow popular governments, with results that - sometimes many decades later - come back to bite them in the nethers.

This is what fuelled the revolutionary movement that overthrew him in 1979. Many of the revolutionaries cited the 1953 coup as their primary motivation. They wanted their country back. Instead they got another brutal, undemocratic regime, presided over by the ayatollahs.

Mosaddegh was a very popular prime minister, and his nationalisation policy was widely supported. But the loss of Britain's loot could not be tolerated. The US and UK reinstated the Shah, Reza Pahlavi, whose only means of sustaining his deeply unpopular regime was extreme cruelty and repression.

In 1953, at Churchill's instigation, and with his assistance, the CIA launched two coups against the democratically elected government of Mohammad Mosaddegh, the 2nd of which succeeded. Why? Because he rightly sought to nationalise Iran's oil supplies, which the UK was taking: seizing Iran's wealth.

Question Time - 2026: 05/03/2026 Fiona Bruce presents an hour of topical debate from Kettering. On the panel are Stephen Doughty, James Cleverly, Shashank Joshi, George Monbiot and Annabel Denham.

I don't know how to clip a segment (sorry), but the bit I really want you to watch starts at 29'10". It's about the deep roots of the attack on Iran and why it's just as well Starmer is "no Winston Churchill". I'm surprised this aspect isn't more widely discussed. 🧡

Westminster Meeting House raided by Metropolitan Police again. Statement: β€œFor Quakers, faith and action are inseparable. Peaceful protest, prayer and nonviolent action are integral parts of many Quakers' religious life.

Whilst we take the planning of criminal acts very seriously, we believe that this incident is a deliberate targeting of committed young people who want to make our country a more equitable place. This raid is part of a systematic stifling of dissent.

That this is the second time in a year that the police have raided our meeting house dramatically illuminates the broader trend in the UK of cracking down on those who disagree with the government. The right to protest is fundamental to our democracy. It's a key part of how people make their voices heard between elections.” – Oliver Robertson, Head of Witness and Worship

EU agrees to chop meaty names from vegetarian and vegan food products Lawmakers will ban use of 31 meat-related names as part of efforts to help livestock farmers in food supply markets

So "lawmakers will outlaw use of 31 meat-related names as part of efforts to help livestock farmers in food supply markets"... just when health, climate & environment scientists are stressing the urgency of helping more livestock farmers OUT of food supply markets?
And what a silly, pointless move!

So let's hurry up and rename hotdogs, kidney beans, peanut butter, shepherd's pie, fish fingers, chocolate eggs, lady fingers, oyster mushrooms, cream crackers, etc etc!

⚠️ Being faced with the reality of what his followers think seems to have touched a nerve.

❌ Can't face the facts.

People say Farage has charisma. This isn’t charismatic. This is dismissive and rude. It’s a serious question about BNP-style racism within his party. And Farage can’t cope with that kind of scrutiny. So he lashes out.
Under the spotlight, his β€˜charisma’ turns very sour indeed.
