My cat kept opening cupboards and ripping open food packets while I was at work. So I installed CCTV in the kitchen with a speaker so I can tell her her to stop from my desk at work. After 12 days she learned to knock the camera away first so I couldn't see. Clever girl.

Wages of unionized workers are 13% higher than their nonunion counterparts. But unions also set a higher pay standard that all workers enjoy. In high-union-density states, median household income is $12,000 higher than in low-union-density states. This is why unions are vital.

It was a Sunday so I was having a lie-in listening to the radio. I must have fallen back asleep but was still hearing the news, so I had a really vivid dream about Diana dying. When I eventually woke back up, it was really confusing as I almost felt I was still asleep.
I wonder if Americans realize how convinced Netanyahu is that they are stupid and that he can easily manipulate them.

If Washington, or Lincoln, or Roosevelt (either one) or.... tbh pretty much every American President saw this, they'd be horrified. I can't believe how far and how fast America has fallen.
Attempting to rig elections on his behalf. Turning the military on citizens. Toying with the idea of declaring martial law. Attacking political enemies and punishing those who speak out against his regime. If this were happening in another country, what would you call it?

I hate this. I absolutely hate this. The idea that the only way to stop one group subverting democracy is for the other side to do it too is awful. But I can't condemn it. If the neo-fascist Republican Party is going to do this then Democrats have to respond in kind.
Mansion House and South Ealing are the only ones that contain all five vowels. Knightsbridge is the only one with six consonants in a row.
And we'd be able to use the Single Transferrable Vote system properly too. Excellent idea. BUT I don't think you realise just how big some Scottish constituencies are.

This is useful. I think I've run out of occasions on which I can blame autocorrect for my misspellings but now "That spelling was correct back in MY universe" might work instead.
So Bannon is plotting a Presidential bid? Maybe it's time I finally announced my own. It's true that I'm constitutionally barred from becoming USA's President because I was born in the UK, but that still gives me exactly the same chance of winning as Bannon has. politicalwire.com/2025/08/07/s...

Notice that every article calls him "former superman actor", presumably because he's done nothing but straight-to-video crap since then.
I'm not arguing with a zealot. Blocked. Of course crypto bros are going to remain loyal to the cause - they lose everything when the bottom drops out of the Ponzi scheme.
I've researched crypto extensively since it first appeared on the scene. It's a fraud with nothing to back it up except the hype, and the credulity of its rabid fans.
Crypto is a scam and a Ponzi scheme.
