@patriotprogressive.bsky.social To be fair, you can think "where have those hands been" when you shake hands with *anyone* (though in most cases the violation of children won't be involved).

Just tripped and fell. Not clever at my age, but nothing broken.

So ... if there's any builders reading this, when you're building a brand new path to brand new houses, laying the paving stones unevenly so that some are higher than others, with trip hazards where they […]

Bleeding knee. It looks worse in real life than it does in the photo.

@GreenFire "Alternative" sounds to me like it covers stuff like CCS, fusion and hydrogen. Cf "alternative medicine".

"Mainstream" energy is solar, wind, hydro, battery, possibly nuclear.

Fossil fuels are "legacy".

@bestforbritain.org Eh? But the whole point of #brexshit was to fuck up people's lives, so how come Putin's #brexshitters are now counting success as failure?

@mistakenotmy I hope he was on a non-US airliner and didn't post that until outside territorial waters.

Tories want to put house prices up again. Same old same old. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c20zv94ldpko

Conservatives would scrap stamp duty, Kemi Badenoch announces

The Tory leader says the move would help millions buy a home, in her annual conference speech.

The Will Of The People. Putin's 17.4m #brexshitters will be having themselves another little **** at the news that even more lives are going to be fucked up.

@i47i YET ANOTHER green Trump policy reducing carbon emissions!

@j2bryson Yes. They see lives being fucked up. This is what they want and support and vote for. They're called "gammons".

@emptywheel.bsky.social Are there *still* people who think that the law actually matters in the USA these days?

@servelan He should try not hating other people - he'll have a much nicer time.

@VeroniqueB99 It's a neighbour. No point in pissing them off, I might want something from them one day 😂

@TimWardCam
In 2020 and other major protest years, we have found that it is not solely protests in D.C. that garner media attention.

Analysis of protest attendance and sudden employment loss in 491 commuting zones in the
United States find that employment loss is positively and significantly […]

@GreenFire Are they?

Not round here, I would guess (without any evidence). Protests mostly have to take place in London if you want even the teeniest chance of any media publicity, and train fares are expensive even for people who aren't unemployed.

@blog "I would expect that professional journalists at well-established newspapers to be able to call"

There's a very, very, VERY good reason why some lazy journos don't make a phone call to check a story.

It's because they might discover that actually they don't have a story.

Then they'd […]

@VeroniqueB99 Somebody just drove into my car. I got them to pay for the replacement light unit, but I wasn't bothered about the paint scratches. The bit they hit was no worse than the rest of the car, and in any case who could tell which, if any, of the scratches were actually new?

Why would anyone vote for Reform-lite and fuck up just 750,000 families when they could vote for the real thing and fuck up the lives of millions? Not a vote-winning strategy. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c708g5x2yqzo

@VeroniqueB99 I would dispute that the car door needs repair.

I claim that the entire car is so old that it's not worth doing bodywork repairs any more, and that the owner would be better off saving the money towards the next car.

@VeroniqueB99 But but but ... !!!

How on earth did they get away with that? In most places those would be rejected because "homeless people might sleep on them".

@johnpfaff.bsky.social Aww, how cute. Are there really still people who think that the rule of law has any relevance in the USA these days?
