I remember when there was a discussion on Twitter about Shein's manufacturing practices and some apologists invented all sorts of fantastical machinery and technology to avoid facing the more horrifying truth. Reminds me of this comedian's joke.

Maybe time to once and for all rid ourselves of any illusions about the American government. Keep talking when needed, be polite, be the adult in the room but never trust the Americans, and never ever rely on them for anything.

Enjoyed a breakfast of small meat (lamb and more) and foul (beans and more) at the Yemenin Kitchen in Lodge Lane.
I'm also a sucker for the flat bread and sweet tea.

If you want to dress well this fall, imagine yourself as Big Jim Collie, a Scottish crofter in the 1970s who lived alone in a bothy and rode a rickety old bicycle through the Lairig Ghru, the highest mountain pass in the highest mountain range in Britain, while sustaining himself on a bit of dram.

Ukraine is a secondary topic for both Trump and Putin in Alaska. This is a mafia meeting arranged by war criminal Putin to restore Russia internationally & economically. Trump wants his "peace" glory and Putin used that to get this summit. But it's mainly about money for both of them, as always.

Went to one of my favourite places, Tasty Polish Cooking in Norris Gree, yesterday. Loved this beetroot soup and then great fried, breaded chicken (which is hiding a load of mashed potato).

Thoroughly enjoyed steak, breaded fish and a selection of interesting sides at Drykela, a Brazilian place in Wavertree. The coffee with the milk pudding dessert was delicious.

All through the night and into the morning, Kharkiv was under massive russian attack—14 drones, 10 missiles
While the city shook, the US shook hands with those who sent them
When Ukraine burned, when its cities were hunted in the dark—why did the US trade support for betrayal?
