Just recalling that the foolish, hubristic Crassus, the most corrupt man who came to power in Rome, money from extortion and property speculation, met a grizzly nemesis at the hands of the Parthians. Following ill-advised expansionism.
The Parthians ruled lands in modern Iran.
No reason.
I was annoyed by the Council first giving me a 2nd green bin, then a year later telling me I had to pay extra to have it emptied. The 2nd bin gets used 2 or 3 times a year; I walk it to the next street on bin day as our Council only requires a permit on the second bin & not the main one.
Itβs a scam.
You should have known already: Catholics and Jews should have nothing to do with the "Christian nationalist" movement because they will be the next for suppression after the Muslims. That's what these people are really about. Islamophobia is recycling of old anti-Catholic tropes.
It's a small thing in a desperate world, but itβs pure malice
Denying gifted female Afghan student with a scholarship a chance to learn is just unforgivable

I'm looking forward to the llama, llama, llama, chameleon notes celebrating our pop history
I miss your Dad. He was a thoroughly decent bloke and the world is much poorer without him.
Can this be so?

βElon Muskβs Tesla given go-ahead to supply electricity in Great Britain.β A subheading underneath says: βOfgem licence means firm can replicate Texas setup of powering homes, businesses and EVs.β
Ed Miliband must step in and bar Tesla from holding an energy licence.
Elon Musk is a threat to our national security and clearly not a fit person to operate in our energy industry.
We canβt have the lights go out because heβs having a strop on X.
every day we get closer to elon musk promising to dig a tunnel to solve this problem
The Lemkin Institute has issued a *THIRD* trans genocide warning, noting the next stage is widespread containment - and this was before the 4th Circuit ruled today that states can essentially do whatever they want to make trans people "appreciate their sex".

Within just a few hours of this morning's genocide warning from the Lemkin Institute, the 4th Circuit ruled that trans adults can have our care banned and be forced by any means to "appreciate our sex", and Iowa made it ILLEGAL to protect trans people.

Isn't that what drew us here in the first place?

Kaiju, it's always Kaiju....
"inspired by" hmm. Do they think that's enough to give them a way out of a law suit?
i cannot believe we are into year 2 of the groyper regime, the camps are open and the state is revoking id's, and we are still getting "oppressed minorities are kinda rude on the internet :/" hand-wringing
yeah we're a little tense right now, believe it or not. fucking shut the fuck up about it
I've been here for the last 18 years π
Front row seat in the Paris tram.
Lunch, not a croque but a "mexican spicy chicken" toastie
The Paris day travel card includes the funicular at Montmartre, which meant that my buggered knee was spared all the stairs pictured.
Sacre CΕur in Monmatre, with even more steps.
Anyway, here are a few pictures from earlier today now that I have a high speed network connection again.
....AAAND home. The cat, who has just demolished a bowl of Sheba, wants me to know how he has suffered over the last 3 days with little more than an automatic feeder full of his favourite food and sole occupancy of the sofa.
IT IS TIME
The man looked up from his beach chair.
"Really?" He said. "I've only just retired."
Death held up a timer. A single grain was about to fall. And then... It didn't.
CURIOUS
Vetinari shrugged.

It appears Steve may have somehow managed to get himself onto the new UK banknotes. Heβs pretty chuffed about it, but Iβve had to explain that this still wonβt help him pay off his bar tab.
And now they've just done an emergency stop at the top of Castle hill, because they were not watching the road and almost ploughed into the back of queuing traffic. Not confident with this driver.
My bus driver appears to be following a new route, or is very confused. The onboard signage says the next stop is Jesus Lane, but they've missed the turn for that and gone via Midsummer Common, Chesterton Rd and have just done an illegal right turn up Castle Hill.
Oopsie!
Oh, and look, here's that class action suit! That anyone with half a brain would have seen coming! From, like, a million miles away!
Just because you work in tech doesn't mean you're smart.
Unlikely as I would never set foot in a slave state.
The BBC are really going out of their way to not call these The Peter Files.
