Jonathan Ashworth: "I've wanted to see a ceasefire for 2 years"

The collective position of the Labour shadow cabinet (which you were part of) for months after October 7th was to reject a ceasefire & Labour instructed its MPs not to vote for a ceasefire in Nov 2023.

I've seen that iceberg meme with the '9/11 fic' label but never questioned whether there was more than one. This has been a wild way to find out that we all haven't been thinking about the same one when we've seen that meme 😆

A photo taken on the morning of 9/11 showing the White House Chief of Staff, Andy Card, whispering to President George W Bush. A crude white speech bubble has been drawn in, leading from Card's mouth.

Every time I've seen references to the 9/11 fic, I always assumed it was the one I had come across. Seems that's not the case.

That was pretty much my face when I found it. I skim-read it, as I couldn't believe someone had written it and put it out in public!

Ok, I have never heard of the PC 9/11 one, but the other definitely existed for a time, too. I skim-read it when I came across it as I couldn't believe it was an existing piece of writing. It was well-written but the subject matter was a huge yikes! It was never finished before it got deleted

Yes. And it seems like they want their biases confirmed rather than objectively investigating the deeper reasons why there are more people with mental health illnesses, and why more people are being investigated/diagnosed as neurodivergent.

Iirc someone wrote a fic where Ed and Stede were employees working in the World Trade Centre when 9/11 happens. I think the plot was (loosely) them working in different companies but end up meeting when trying to escape the burning buildings.

Here! Various versions in case anyone prefers one format over others. I used 32ct linen, 2x2 for the crosses, 1 strand for backstitch, but in hindsight kinda wish I used sewing thread for the backstitch for a finer outline at this tiny scale? The floss looks ok though!

And a couple of minor notes:

I will not back down.

Trump is now calling for the arrest of elected representatives checking his power.

What else is left on the path to full-blown authoritarianism?
