Sir, I bow down to your ability to sit through the entirity of that speech to bring us the glorious highlights. I couldn't do a single minute lest my head explode, Scanners fashion.
You know, I never really took to football but now the geometry and hard core debate of VAR is coming to the fore I might have to get viewing.
Oooo, it's all go in Margate on Thursday, lots of other events as well, well worth a visit.
I love that the wonderful @womensartbluesky.bsky.social have highlighted Beatrix Potter today as the amazing natural scientist she was 🥰🥰
Graphic that shows that Tulse Hill station is 2 minutes from my house, so for the 11:02 train, I could leave at 10:55. But there are stairs and no lift so I have to go to West Norwood station that's 10 minutes from my house and I have to book a wheelchair ramp 24 hours before and turn up 10 minutes before the train to make sure the station person is there, just to pass through the station that's 2 minutes from where I live. And that is why I usually drive everywhere.
I'm the same, I will definitely buy a ticket to support the film though.
Huge hugs, I know that poisoned feeling only too well xx
A Black man was killed by ICE (off duty) in Los Angeles on New Year’s Eve. And like Renée Good, he was an American citizen. But most people have not heard about Keith Porter.
I need y’all to realize this. Black people experience this lack of visibility all the time when it comes to being victims.

How lovely for both of them, I worked at Illumina for a while and they were great.

I don't need to imagine this, my poor octogenerian dad spent several hours in a Croydon hospital corridor ER overspill last year, which at one point included watching another patient vomiting over his bed rail with nobody to clear it up for ages. Not good.

Add 32 people killed in ICE detention in 2025
We've all been caught out at one point or other! 🤣
A shameful bunch of lies posted by the DHS. They defame the victim, Renee Nicole Good, who didn’t threaten anyone and was simply exercising her First Amendment rights.
Call the Endnote support people, I had something similar happen and they were wonderful, at no extra cost
I was excited when someone in New York city offered to swap apartments with me for a month. It's a while since I've gone back to my second country and my latest US passport is unused. But they backed out and I've got to say, I'm mostly relieved, who knows where we'll by May!

Please stop using the term 'child porn'. Here's why.

Denmark's PM Mette Frederiksen is clear: if the US attacks a NATO ally, the post-WWII order is over. NATO only works if borders aren't changed by force. Break that rule-and the alliance breaks with it.

Listening to this I imagine I'm doing a vigourous exercise I can no longer do. It stimulates the same neurons that fire when the exercise is being done. I unexpectedly discovered via hypnosis that part of chronically ill grief was these neurons 'feeling' neglected. That blew my neuroscientist mind!
It started well, I got refered for the tilt table test that got me a venous return insufficiency diagnosis but they basically fell apart once COVID struck and then I got shunted to the back because instead of expanding to take on people with Long Covid, they of course... didn't
No surprises, I live in London and it's been over 5 years since I've seen the large central London hospital service I'm supposedly under. I can't switch back to my local South London one as they basically invented and widely spread ME gaslighting so I'd just use up all my energy screaming at them 🤬🤬
Moving back home from a few months by the sea, you are keeping me going strong through the packing and cleaning and wonderfully accompanying my delicious rest periods 🥰🎵🩵💚
They just keep piling on the pleasure I feel for leaving the party after being a member for 31 years.
Is there some way we can donate all of our money to FIFA in these terribly troubled times for them?
Just gonna leave this here
