There aren’t enough *medical* staff, and somehow they’re finding the money for this? Who are these people going to be? What are their qualifications? Are they just random scolds?

I loved this stuff. The candy was awesome, too.

I cannot read that poem without thinking Niemoller was just a whiny little bitch because the leopard ate his face.

Has Robert Jenrick always been *this* horrible, or is he amping it up to ride this hideous racist wave? I mean, he’s a Tory, so I assume he’s always been terrible, but it seems as if he’s trying to distinguish himself as exceptionally vile amongst the other hard right wingers.

Argyle Park is not what it once was, which was a decent little local taxi firm. They merged with other companies some time back, started pushing their app, instead of the phenomenally efficient dispatcher lady, and finally pushed me to get my driving license.

Ag, gotcha! If some of them are British, they May very well be keeping quiet, because the government really is out to get people.

Four. A tortie girl and the mini panther in the photo, who are sisters, and then the Siamese mix boys, who are brothers.

People over here are being arrested every week for protesting the genocide in Palestine. There is a concerted effort on behalf of the mainstream media, led by the BBC, to marginalise any protest. The government is actively persecuting people and organisations who protest.

I don’t post enough pictures of her, because she’s a bit camera shy.

Siobhan gets some lap time.

A shiny black cat looks sleepily at the camera.

Oh gosh, I must’ve missed hearing your kitty is under the weather. I hope he’s on the mend.

Yeah, I was down there yesterday, which is why it was in mind, and it’s getting better, but it’s still a disgrace it’s gone on this long.

God, at this point, I’d be grateful if they just finished the bloody shopping precinct in Birkenhead and sorted the market debacle.

There was something wrong with the drawer mechanism on my washer that caused a leak, too. It needed a new part, but you are not wrong about the foul grime in the drawer when it was removed. Even though it technically wasn’t the problem, I was still properly ashamed of myself.

Basically a rustic round loaf, baked in a Dutch oven, with a dramatic fast rise and a slashed top to allow rapid expansion. (I am a baking bore, apologies if that’s more information than you needed!)

And the crumb looks superb.

Well-earned smug face.

Nice! I usually make country loaves, but that’s as fine a sandwich loaf as I’ve ever seen.

Oh my gosh, how horrible for you! Albert went missing for a couple of days last spring, and I had a breakdown until I found him. I’m so glad Nigel is home.

I worked there! First as a key op and then as a Desktop Publisher. My zines were fucking elite, I tell you what.

My flu jab hit like a train. 1.5 days of shivering, joint-aching misery. Solidarity!

That’s definitely one to treasure forever.

The Greens requested an interview on the Laura Kuenssberg Show with Zack Polanski when he was elected leader, but were denied, with a promise to interview him during Green conference instead.

This was then scrapped citing the Manchester synagogue attack. Polanski is both Jewish and from Manchester

All too easy to imagine him sweatily looking at every picture he could find and choosing whether or not to add it to his pile of “evidence.”
