My husband of 5 years bought me £30 Lego for my birthday this year. I wouldn't mind so much, but he also bought himself £150 Lego the same day. Unfortunately he's not been able to finish his AT - ST walker as some of the pieces appear to have mysteriously gone missing. Shame.

One theory is that the witchfinders could not get any traction in Welsh villages because they could not speak Welsh.

Another is that the Welsh villagers liked their witches and protected them from any witchfinders who dared cross the border.

Also taking pictures on media row at Turning Point USA's AmericaFest this weekend was Myron Gaines, the misogynistic, antisemitic host of Fresh & Fit who has used his platform to both deny the Holocaust and say that "Hitler was right."

it's 30 years later and this still happens.

Jenna Ortega revealed in an interview with The New York Times that she quit Twitter after seeing explicit images of herself generated by Al when she was a teenager. She also became inundated with messages from fans that ranged from "disgusting" to "absurd."
"I hate AI," Ortega said. "I mean, here's the thing: AI could be used for incredible things. I think I saw something the other day where they were saying that artificial intelligence was able to detect breast cancer four years before it progressed. That's beautiful. Let's keep it to that. Did I like being 14 and making a Twitter account because I was supposed to and seeing dirty edited content of me as a child? No. It's terrifying. It's corrupt. It's wrong."

“Maybe you are right,” said Toad. “Maybe Frog does not want to see me. Maybe he does not want me to be his friend anymore.”

Frog sits off on the distance, an island unto himself.

Thinking about all the times communities have taxed the wealthy to fund public works etc and gone “this overwhelmingly makes our community better in every way” and then the larger government goes “that’s stupid and will never work and besides, our billionaires earned that money fair and square”
