Making America great again... one light bulb at a time.
The DEI ban is one (awful and nonsensical) thing, but removing all women in stem from government websites under DEI ban. What?
Also women make up 50.5% of the US population. They shouldn't even need any help under a diversity programme. They are not diverse.
Imagine if someone suddenly decided they wanted to make Yorkshire a holiday resort. π€
Oh man. That does sound like a rough month. Sorry it's been so shit. I've given up for this year as I actually tried rearranging it for the following weekend only for Gav to come down with covid. π And there's no point in going out for fancy food if you can't taste it, eh? ππ€£ Never mind. π€·ββοΈ
Tell me about it. Mine was a couple of weeks ago. Cards didn't turn up on time coz of the snow, friends forgot and I had covid so ended up cancelling all my plans. It was SHITE. Ps happy birthday...π€£π
Hmm flank should be OK, esp as diced so will have been against the grain. Maybe it was just a bit too long in the freezer!
I thought freezing would tenderise meat? Maybe this cut just had more sinew on it. What did you use?
After two days of driving about in the snow I have some advice...
For those of you who can't drive in the snow, don't drive in the snow.
For everyone else, get winter tyres!!
A front wheel drive car with winter tyres will perform better in snow than a 4x4 with normal tyres.
Nah. Just sleet.
Why is the BBC leading with a story about Elon Musk's opinion of the Reform Party?
A nobody person remarking on a nobody party. Stop giving these people airtime!!
It's amazing what people can learn when they check the weather isn't it? π€£
People freaking out about the snow and panicking about getting to work tomorrow but obviously not bothering to check the weather forecast.
Which tells us it's going to rain overnight.

@captainbongofury.bsky.social good to see you here! Went to Raazi on the back of one of your tweets last night and really enjoyed it. So ta for sharing that tip!
Ah they are lovely but I'm thinking more everyday... like crockery, cutlery, bedding, dressing gown. But then I find something and I'm like... I can't spend it on bloody plates!! Even though I know the plates would bring me a Lyne piece of joy every day.
And I love these but... a) way over Β£150 and b) they wouldn't last two minutes. www.abask.com/products/cas...
Although I am intrigued by this... lunaralights.co.uk/products/moo...
Google searches are coming up with ridiculousness such as... www.selfridges.com/GB/en/produc...
If you suddenly found yourself in possession of about Β£150... and you didn't NEED anything, but you wanted to spend it wisely on a little piece of LUXURY to make your life a little easier/ nicer... what would you spend it on?
Thank you. I was very chuffed with myself. 80kg is heavy...ππ€£ I go to www.believeachieveuk.com and highly recommend. It's all weights based, small classes of 6 with one PT and they sort individual programs for each session and take us through each set. Lots of great banter too. π
This is what I was saying to gav earlier. There's little fat on my arms and legs, it's all on my belly and I know I have a fair bit to lose but not a third of me's worth...π€£ I'm currently borderline overweight/obese but can walk all day and deadlift 80kg so, I'm not perfect, but I'm OK. πββοΈ
Anyway... I'm thinking about goals for next year and losing almost a third of body weight absolutely is not one of them. I'd rather be heavier, stronger and healthier.
The scale for men isn't much better, but at least they're allowed some muscle along with their skin and bones. Us women don't need any, it seems.
I know BMI is bullshit but today I checked my ideal weight for my height and, apparently, it's 55kg. I've only been at this weight once in my adult life and I was basically doing ALL the cardio and very skinny. Ie... no muscle. How can that be achievable, sustainable or healthy?
We got there! Christmas is done. π
(My parents were supposed to come for dinner, but flu has hit them, so they cancelled, leaving me with almost a kilo in cheese and two desserts to consume. The planned brisket has gone in the freezer and we had hanger instead. π)
Christmas breakfast, starter and main. Will we make it to dessert and cheese? I've had the Christmas pudding and panettone in the cupboard since, at least, last Christmas so it would be good if we could squeeze it in somewhere!!
Already forgetting what day it is.
I had a friend who genuinely thought it was just idiot in an Irish accent.
It's unbelievable but we think about Β£230 million a year goes unclaimed in Sheffield. It's what people are legally entitled to, ranging from #universalcredit to #FreeSchoolMeals.
