Ironic that the Green Party voted to abolish landlords while @zackpolanski.bsky.social lives rent free in the Prime Minister's head.
Starmers worried about the Green Party challenging this governments failures.

Cooked for just myself tonight. Did slightly too much, so had to eat out of a mixing bowl.
Kitchen scales said 767g of food.

British politics is a mess. Food, energy, housing are all too expensive. Major parties are all flogging the dead horse of trickle down. So I’m joining the Green Party. Britain needs an economy that works for workers, for small businesses, and future generations. @greenparty.org.uk

I'm on my way to a Chanukah event. It should be a celebration but instead our community is once again mourning.
I will be thinking of everyone in Australia and those around the world in the Jewish Community who know this fear and loss.

Vegetarians! Vegans! Anyone who enjoys cooking! Here's a thread of recipes for the veggie / vegan dishes I cook regularly and which have helped me massively cut down on the amount of meat I eat these days. First, a cheap, easy., quick dal which *everyone* should be able to cook:

My regular reminder that eating less meat is one of the easiest things you can do to help mitigate the effects of climate change and lots of other harm we do to the environment. You don’t have to quit meat altogether and it doesn’t have to be an all or nothing thing about your identity
