*shrug* let's give it a go - genderless animist/feral buddhist, also plural so mostly use we/us instead of I/me - this is emphatically not a couples thing nor a royalty thing :) - (we're earhartsease on tumblr in case that's relevant)

More than 50 MPs and Peers have joined me in urging David Lammy to immediately meet with the lawyers of those on hunger strike.
The government needs to wake up, take responsibility, and show some humanity before it is too late.

fascinated by the "universal" tropes that are in fact very northern hemisphere-centric
one example is "south = warmth & light" - except south of the equator, at noon the sun is in the north, and houses in australia are built north-facing for light and warmth (and artists probably want south light)

@jesszafarris.bsky.social @robwords.bsky.social do you know anything about the history of "the" being /ðɪː/ before vowels in british english (and to some extent in US english), but these days in US english it's increasingly /ðə/ (the usual pronunciation before consonants) even when it's a vowel?

the audio on this video is bloody marvellous
A huge fireball exploded at a waste facility in an Australian suburb in western Sydney, sending flames 100 metres into the sky. Authorities are investigating the fire’s cause, but say a chemical tank exploded in the blaze, sending concrete debris flying and causing damage to nearby buildings.

Excellent point! The "Benefits Scroungers" are the businesses paying their workers a pittance and having their wage bill subsidized by Universal Credit.
Here’s just one of many reasons why the success of Your Party, the continuing rise of The Greens, and the re-emergence of the SNP and Plaid Cymru are so important.
Our economy should work for everyone, not just a select few.

HOLY SHIT. They found the genes for fibromyalgia - and it's *not* autoimmune, it's the central nervous system. It's very cool to see some progress made on the thing that's ruined my life since late teenage years!
Medical Republic: 'Fibromyalgia finally gets a genetic fingerprint'
'Additionally, certain risk loci overlapped with long covid (BPTF) and ME/CFS (OLFM4, RABGAP1L/GPR52), two poorly characterised disorders, albeit with different lead variants.'
