Just one of many problems with this ill thought out idea.

Also an English degree makes people very employable. There are so many English graduates working in marketing for a start.

Wait, new Barnaby has been the lead for over 10 years?

Six weeks ago, I picked up a year-old tawny owl with a broken leg off the main road near our home and dropped him off at our nearest vet.

After a few days, I received one of the most bizarre phone calls I’ve ever had, asking “So when are you coming to pick up your owl?” 🧵

Just good things for most people.

Probably a bit of all 4 if I'm honest.

Paracetamol? I hadn't even heard that one!

No. You only have to own 25% or more to legally have to be on Companies House as a person with significant control .

None of those answers fit. It's not ALL politicians, it's mostly those that have been in power, so Labour and Tories, and Libdems to a lesser extent (actually Reform too but I blame the media for overplatforming them). I don't blame independents, the new left wing party or the Greens for this mess.

This is a really clever way to out across such a simple message!

How do we fix this mess?

*as MUCH as I do.

I have fat thumbs!

Just realised this is the NEXT one, not the one I bought yesterday. Exciting!

Wow. Any excuse to push him as someone to put into power. He's obviously not in the running.

This is my issue (and I've got the same rule). I've now made a waiting list for my wishlist because over 100 in my wishlist seems ridiculous.

But free speech AGAINST violence? Oh no, lock them up!

We have caulk here. It's the chalky stuff you use to bridge gaps between plaster board and things like door frames. You don't generally have to use it much in DIY as it doesn't wear out like silicone.

I have Dyspraxia rather than ADHD (although I'm increasingly wondering if I have both) and I'd say a lot of my early trauma was thanks to how teachers and other kids treated me because of undiagnosed Dyspraxia. (Also just an anecdote.)

The climate doesn't care how many renewables we have - only how little fossil fuels we burn.

@mikebernerslee.bsky.social explains why making things more efficient increases the amount we use.

Found it on another post. London.

It may be because I have COVID and my brain is not functioning as normal but I can't see where this is going to be on that page. I'm guessing probably not Scotland but I would LOVE to see this one!

Sick of Nigel Farage being featured on the BBC when the Greens and even the Lib Dems are ignored? Sign this.

As someone who is probably fast approaching perimenopause, I've been paying a lot of attention to the latest research and modern HRT. We need to talk about it more!
katemuir.bsky.social
It’s time to rebrand HRT!
And why synthetic hormones are a bit like ultra-processed food.
Please read my essay on why HRT has been given such a bad rap, in science and popular culture, and how women are the losers in this ideological battle. open.substack.com/pub/katemuir...
