I'm just glad he doesn't cut them top half / bottom half.

True confession: sometimes I will cut a book in half if it is too big/heavy. I’ve gotten carpal tunnel/forearm strain too many times from holding heavy books in the past

Without doubt, Birmingham New Street is the most confusing station in the country. Whoever designed it should consider another, entirely different, career.

Belfast ranks 32nd per capita for asylum seekers in the UK.
Northern Ireland hosts 2,379 in total. That’s 0.1% of its population.
NI is 97% white.
Asylum seekers are not “illegal migrants”; they’re going through a legal government process.

Belfast houses more asylum seekers per capita than almost any other place in the UK.
One in 200 people in Belfast is an illegal migrant.
Who could possibly have foreseen civil unrest?
It’s the immigration, stupid.

Musk as a trillionaire- anyone as a trillionaire- is a grotesque economic, moral and political problem. We cannot have individuals with that level of power, whatever they might have achieved.

The neurodivergence toolkit I helped write... was awarded "Highly Commended" in the VC awards last week, and was accepted as evidence in a parliamentary consultation today. We WILL make things better for disabled people. Sometimes I wish it weren't quite so exhausting though.

Renée Good was 37.
A mother.
A wife.
A human being.
After she was shot, a voice on the recording can be heard saying, “fucking bitch.” Multiple news organizations have reported hearing the remark.
You can debate immigration policy all day long.
But look at her family and tell me:
Is this justice?

We do this not because, as RHG imagines, we hate the texts, or something similarly silly, but because we are inspired by them (or real events that sit behind them) and want to understand them *more fully,* as an adult does, rather than merely venerating them, as a child does. 20/
