Paging Liz Kendall

Donald Trump proposes a 1.776 billion slush fund for terrorists. In my book "On Freedom" I proposed $1776 as guaranteed monthly fixed income for Americans. Each kind of future is possible. We choose.

Just been on a round trip to the emergency vet with Edgar. He's fine. Perked up when we got there & the most the vet could hear (through his purring) was a slight wheeze that she wasn't concerned about. I mean, it's not like he just got bored & faked a crisis....is it? Obviously Oisín is unimpressed

In a turnabout of roles, the cats are sleeping & I'm rampaging around the house yelling that it was supposed to have stopped raining by now

This is a brilliant idea to force corporations to either raise pay rates for their employees or lower their payouts to CEOs 💯💯💯🎯

Edgar has discovered he can torment me by jumping on the glass fronted china cabinet. He already *is* leading his best life

Englishness is not about skin colour, it's about being outraged at the emergence of single-file queues in pubs.

You know what? People who don’t like kissing don’t have to watch romances. Sober realists aren’t forced to sit through SFF. Grouches can eschew comedy and squeamish people are welcome not to watch horror films. Just let things exist for their target audience.

Miserable weather this #caturday sleepy Edgar, grumpy Oisín agree

Gutted to see the news about Anthony Head

Weekend reading! I've just started Threshold by Jordan Hawk. Book 1 was very good, so fingers crossed for this one. Next up is Laura Laakso's 3rd, Roots of Corruption. I loved her first two urban fantasy mysteries in the series & this looks excellent, too. #BookSky

Nothing to do with our democracy but he'd be right to tell Vance to fuck off

Maple syrup is amazing because it’s just a socially acceptable way to drench a full plate of food in sugar water. Outstanding work Canada.

Great day of BD (aka drinking heavily in the name of work) ended with a hug from WC 😊

Beyond where I was where it all went horribly wrong now 😊 #KnitSky

It’s the puppy herder’s first day on the job and the sheep understood the assignment with being supportive and encouraging.

Edgar jumped on the shed. So Oisín jumped up there, too. So Edgar bit him on the butt & Oisín leapt to the fence. While typing this, Oisín jumped down, Edgar raced after him & Oisín leapt up to a different fence. Edgar thinks he can't jump on fences for some reason Oisín: thankfully!!

i’m old enough to remember when comic book supervillains were fictional

Storm starts Me: *gathers up knitting & races inside before coming back for my kindle & phone* Oisín: *races inside* Edgar: nope. Nope. Nope. Wait. HAIL?!!! Nah. Fuck this shit. *Races inside*

Occasionally, threads throws up a good un

61% of all political donations in the last quarter came from just 14 people Reform took in £9.3m from a handful of super rich donors British democracy is being bought. We urgently need action to take the money out of our politics

I had no idea this sort of thing existed. It hasn't been covered by any CLE seminars on AI that I have attended.... Yet another AI trap for the Legal Community.

Finished! I'll try to get better pics of the colour in daylight but I'm pretty pleased with my first go at holding two strands together #KnitSky

A reminder of what Nigel Farage said following the murder of Sarah Everard by a serving police officer.

Nigel Farage is so determined to exploit this tragedy and divide our country that he couldn’t even bring himself to condemn thugs attacking police officers.

Saw a 'recipe' in a Facebook Short where you pour molten chocolate into a full can of plain Pringles, so that it oozes down into all the gaps, and then after cooling it in the fridge you can pull out and break up a cylinder of sweet-salty chocolate-Pringle brittle And … I fear I want to try it

"The students who cannot read a 20-pg article today are the voters who will not be able to read a bill or the jurors who cannot follow a closing argument, tomorrow." The most important argument against AI in education is that it's incompatible with a free society. www.chronicle.com/article/my-s...

80 hours of work a month? That's, like, 4 times the number of hours Trump puts in

Look for the helpers :)

We rate dogs has apparently never seen a panda eat a carrot

I have to admit, this is brilliant. A memorial for $3 gas with flowers and a tombstone. It's funny because millions of Americans were told prices would magically come down. Instead, working families get higher costs while trump and Republicans shrug and move on to their next culture war.

What's the point of holding the biggest international event in the world in the US if the host nation can pick your squad? This tournament is going to be a farce!

Oisín is not a lap cat so this is a real treat. He did insist on playing with the circular cable before he settled down but then there was room for both my project & little O on my lap

Rubbing my eyes here but is Chris Mason committing a journalism...?

Getting there. 50 stitches left on the needles

So, the birthday honours included the surviving Chuckle Brother & a royal plastic surgeon? Why do we keep on with this nonsense?

Hail storm

I would REALLY like to see the cat road collisions petition actually get somewhere this time. Two weeks left to get it over the 100k line so ministers can't just shrug and go "nah that's just for dogs" as they have previously. Please sign and share:
