My friend's tortoise showed his displeasure at being held in the air for a load of selfies by pissing all over his tshirt and shorts. Never pisses on me and I've had him sit on my head for long periods. I knew I loved this animal.

At my current place we've been told various times the business has increased ~20% at least 3 years in a row so it's all a bit galling. If you see me out this weekend, pay me no mind and record absolutely nothing you see me do. Because I won't remember any of it.

My ex-colleague was a finance head and they increased his salary MASSIVELY to get him back. The salesman who left also got a better package to return. The same with credit control. You have to visibly handle money or already be rich and paying in via reputation to hold any value. The rest? Peons.

I feel like again and again capitalism shows us why loyalty isn't rewarding, unless you're already rich. And as a technical person, who works behind the scenes, we have basically zero value now.

Was offered a new job. I'm off work but went in for a retirement party, so was going to tell my boss. But I don't want to leave, I like it there. Just want them to offer me more. That made starting the conversation so much harder. I couldn't do it. I chickened out and I'm going to call later. CALL.

What do Reform voters think will happen if migrants get deported? Landlords, power companies, supermarkets suddenly charge less and employers pay more? No. The opposite will continue to happen and next it'll be LGBT funding scrapped, then women's and children's schemes...

He's spent 20 years telling everyone they're a victim of the people he accepts money from, but they're too fucking stupid to see that. Ironically using supposed British identity erosion as a weapon whilst simultaneously saying identity politics is stupid. They're also too stupid to see that.

Migrants shouldn't be allowed to work. But they shouldn't be subsidised by the public, either. But you know what should be subsidised by the public? All the St George's cross and 'stop the boats' graffiti.

11 days after my tests, 9 days after I was told to expect a result, 7 days after I was contacted by the UK Health Security Agency and 5 days after I started calling my GP twice a day (as instructed), I found out my infection was E.coli. Which, obviously, cleared up days ago. Efficient.

Of course, any Palestinians lucky enough to escape may end up becoming a revolutionary force. But the world will call them terrorists when trying to take back their homes, propogating the apparently-eternal Israeli victim status.

I love that the governments of the world are sitting back pretending that they don't know exactly what'll happen when Israel conquers Gaza. Not-so-spoiler alert: it's the same fucking things they've said all along. Destroy Palestine, kill it's people and expand their own territory.
