That choice always made complete sense to me.
Or Duncan Grant and Vanessa Bell buying paint and decorating the walls.

Good, but this is a day late and a buck short.

Thornberry et al. knew full well how wrong Labour were/are on 'trans' (cringe). We begged and pleaded with them for years. They did nothing.

Right when we needed their voices most, they stayed schtum to avoid upsetting their transphobic leadership.

Here is the cool part: I am using them. None of this "I should". It is very much, "and it is getting messy in here."

Sometimes in society, some people (not all) will only develop some balanced character by having the shit kicked out of them so they don't inflict foolish/awful ideas. These young men never got that beating on the playground. It's not too late. But we know they didn't get it.

there are like 50 people in the country who want the UK to get involved in the Iran War, one of them is Kemi Badenoch, one of them is Nigel Farage, and the other 48 are newspaper columnists

I had a moment in my writing career that 16 year old me would have been super impressed by. Even 46 me is impressed. But that 16 year old girl within me... she kinda went and had her dreams come true.

I haven't had work in months.
I'm a good art director, expert pixel artist, and although I prefer to do art, I can also make entire games from start to finish if necessary, as pictured. Not the greatest coder, but I get the job done (like Chapell Roan I guess).

please share

A couple of things. I would lay bets for him, and in the early days of online gambling we had a thing where I would get him in to certain games without having to pay. I got a cut.

It doesn't occur to me to gamble. Which is interesting because there are successful gamblers in my family.

He mostly did blackjack and poker.
The funny thing is I have absolutely no interest in gambling.

I'm so sorry I need to ask and I really hate doing it, but Edith has once again fallen sick (directly thanks to our landlord still poisoning us after more than a year of stalling repairs) - She's vomiting and not slept for 3 days.
