Also, it's NOT 'Rosie the Riveter' and never was. THIS is 'Rosie the Riveter', a totally different image.

THIS DAY in 1942, this iconic WWII poster was displayed for 1 week only in selected locations only, and forgotten until the 1980s when the image rights were sold and it was rediscovered.

And if you're wondering why GB Women's #Curling win over #Canada is such a big deal, it's because Canada's captain Rachel Homan is the GOAT, the Lionel Messi of Canadian Curling.

Like many, I'm engrossed in the Winter Olympics #Curling.

If you wonder why all the brush heads are yellow, it's because they have to come from the same manufacturer, after the 'BroomGate Scandal' of 2105 where teams used high tech fibre heads to gain unfair advantage, which also damaged the ice.

Mixed news on UK GDP ... but a long, long way from the "OMG IMMINENT CALAMITOUS COLLAPSE OF OUR WHOLE ECONOMY !!" predicted by Right Wing Media after the last Reeves Budget.

Several years ago I was one of many who provided info which put Nazi Fantasist Bonehill in jail, by providing evidence which linked him to 11 separate anonymous accounts.

“Man behind satirical Crewkerne Gazette AI videos was jailed in UK for hate crimes.”

Oh, dear, oh dear, Zia. Another #Reform Tantrum.

1. Statement is from the Debating Society, not #Bangor University. At the request of the students. One does not represent the other.

2. Threatening funding from a group that disagrees with you is ... very Berlin 1934.
