Black and white photo of Marjane Satrapi with the quote: "The world is not divided between East and West. You are American. I am Iranian, we don't know each other, but we talk and we understand each other perfectly. The difference between you and your government is much bigger than the difference between you and me. And the difference between me and my government is much bigger than the difference between me and you. And our governments are very much the same."

You know that guy, Paddington?
I erm, knew his mother.
There are offenders out there, living among society, who view Epstein as a hero. They live among us. They look normal. They succeed in life. The obligation is on the rest of us to protect children. Keep your childrenβs faces off the internet. Keep your children away from social media. Do your bit.
I shall probably burn for this. However, there is something of the 1970s wannabe hippy about Christ in the Lady Chapel at Wells Cathedral.

Also I forgot to thank you for your writing on politics. I enjoy reading it.
Take care.
Also on data services and governance I'm sure you are aware of @thescouseoracle over on Instagram who is shining a light on the absence of governance in government contracts with big businesses like Palantir.
Thank you for replying. Boycotts are never subtle. I understand entirely that there will be an impact on other businesses.
It's not easy to find a way to make a difference but I feel an obligation to do so.
May I ask if you sell your books on any other online platform?
I will see if I can borrow one from the library.
I do not use Amazon. Mr Bezos doesn't need any more money and his ownership of the Washington Post has denuded it of integrity.
No joke: I got angry hate mail today for writing an obituary of a Black woman scientistβbecause the person felt she did didnβt deserve the recognition.

Photo of 7 year old Diana Crespo sitting with her parents at a table in a restaurant. Her dad is giving a thumbs up.
The public made noise for Liam Ramos and it got him released from Dilley.
Now we must make noise for 7 year old Diana Crespo.
Her parents were taking her for emergency medical care when ICE grabbed them, and sheβs rotting in the camp sick and exposed to measles.
Get them out!
Child at the podium: βA woo woo woo.β
Mamdani: Thatβs how I felt when we came up with this plan. Together, we will expand the idea of what is possible in our cityβand what sounds and noises we can make at a press conference.

Watch this powerful message from Jon Stewart.
If you're living somewhere outside the USA, one thing you can do is pressure your leaders to boycott World Cup and Olympic events here.
Van Hollen: "They really think the American people are stupid. I mean, we can all see the video. We saw the video with Renee Good. We saw the video with Alex Pretti. The real domestic terrorists are in the White House right now."
The people who spent years defending and even lionizing Kyle Rittenhouse and Ashli Babbitt now want us to believe that an unarmed mother in her car and a disarmed nurse were domestic terrorists who deserved to be murdered by law enforcement.
nursesonja β’ 7h & Threads Let us not forget, it was the same administration that reduced us to wearing trash bags as protective gear while we watched the hospital go up in flames around us during the pandemic that just murdered one of our own on the streets in broad daylight. As a nurse & as a person, I will never forgive. I will never forget. I will never back down. This was never about border control. This is about total control. O240 Q5 G34 β 21
The nurses are pissed

A man told me yesterday that it was important to "take emotion out of the equationβ when analysing the situation in the US, at which point I told him very calmly that "a woman who disagrees with you is not necessarily emotional".
Ladies, it was a breakthrough.
I should have done this years ago.
