I think maybe I've been Online too long but every time I see this creepy advert I cant help but think someone out there is probably seeing it and being inspired to write some really strange porn.

Like imagine if your mattress had a mouth...

Big point of order here, this is taxis for medical appointments. They're not allowed much in the way of money. Like nearly nothing. How are they supposed to get to appointments?
Dismal framing. Every aspect of most asylum seekers’ lives is controlled & paid for by the Home Office. They can’t work, are told where to live & have no autonomy or dignity. So they aren’t *choosing* to use taxis & don’t need to be “banned” from doing so. The HO just needs to get its act in order.
Government to ban asylum seekers from using taxis
The ban is set to come in February and any exemptions will have to be signed off by the Home Office.

90% of the disabled and chronically ill people who have been eligible for covid boosters in the past are also being denied boosters on the NHS now too.

It's a shame to focus on NHS staff specifically rather than just trying to get boosters back for everyone.
Okay, here we go.

Health & care staff are no longer allowed a Covid booster, but they're still expected to look after COVID+ patients.

NHS/govt is reneging on its duty of care. Staff will become unwell, and patients too will suffer.

You know what to do

This boat, now in IWM London, came from a vessel that was attacked by a German naval raider in 1940. The raider's captain ordered his men to fire on survivors in other boats. He was later convicted of war crimes and died in prison.

Something certain people might like to reflect on.

I’m not an expert in the law of war, but an order to kill injured people who were not posing a single threat to anyone would seem to me to be a possible war crime.

So my brother works for an company that manufactures audio equipment and he's expressed an interest in moving to the research and design team.

They generally only accept graduates with a degree in audio engineering and he doesn't have a formal education in electronics but they've been supportive.

Reading letters from the Princess Liselotte of Palantine, the German sister-in-law of Louis XIV, and it's wild because she had this super informal writing style that almost sounds like modern texts

Like at one point she goes "wish to god my son didn't love holding chunks of bread like a peasant"

Hey @nature.com, have you got an explanation for how the hell THIS happened? & especially why you accepted a paper with such a bizarre piece of genAI slop in it?!
& more to the point, why we should take you seriously at all going forward?

“Call it,” she said.

When they didn’t, she took out her phone to call the office herself, but the agents tried unsuccessfully to take her phone...”
