Inflation is running at 4.4%. University employers have offered us 1.4%; yet another effective pay cut. Why would we accept such a damaging offer? HT @ucu.org.uk

Does anyone else find it crazy that you can walk into a bookshop and be charged £9.99 for a paperback novel that took the author a year to complete, but £17.99 for a completely blank notebook?

Cool! Does Jesus pay off student and credit card debt?! Does this mean we can stop paying and say it’s on God’s tab? Thought not. Full of poo and fascism the lot of them.
Get us off this timeline please.

I still have a few old copies of Loaded from the 90s. I was flicking through one a few months back and discovered that I'd cut up many of the pages to make wraps. It's possibly the most 90s thing ever and engulfed me in a tremendous wave of nostalgia.

Ah yes. Similar here post lockdown
Since giving up drinking, I now realise my council recycling bin is actually a perfectly reasonable size.

I feel this acutely
Had to give up about 2000 books last year as we moved across country and into a smaller house (we're empty nesters).
I look at one of my bookcases now and get a pang.
Getting used to it... slowly.

Also aware of which books I didn't give up. A few have gone everywhere I've gone for 30 to 40 years.

anil isn't kidding. this level of transparency and detail — talking to voters like adults — is remarkable. i would imagine it also helps people feel like they are part of something bigger. and, christ, mamdani is insanely charismatic and good on screen. like, you just want to watch him talk!
This @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social video is absolutely INCREDIBLE. The numbers he cites, the strategy and results they produced — it’s the future. When have you heard *any* campaign talk about this, ever? (Video split in 2 to fit in Bluesky’s limits)

Spent a few hours this morning at the Plaza, putting the second layer onto this thing. Just building visual rhythms at this point. Still have a little bit of layer 2 to go, then things start to get interesting. #lisboaportugal #art #jenniferhathawayart #oilpainting #samba
