Yesterday we were all waiting in the Epstein line. Today, the entire country has turned into investigators, tracking which files are disappearing. Sixteen gone so far. There’s been a remarkable amount of teamwork, with people working together to identify the missing documents.

The White House has been caught.
The administration inserted a photo of Bill Clinton, Michael Jackson, and Diana Ross into the Epstein files and falsely implied it showed them with victims.
In reality, it’s a publicly available fundraiser photo featuring Jackson and Ross’s own children.

The explosion of extreme and dangerous misogyny in our schools is down to influencers like Andrew Tate.

So it's much better to astroturf this issue, make some shitty people think oh cool a hack I can use, get everyone else mad
Then you can cut accessibility.

So, the Christmas Tree is supposed to arrive today. We've used the same company for eight years. Seven of those years have been fine. But, of course, all the kids & I remember is the year that it didn't turn up & we had no Tree.

Suspect some female Tory MPs are quietly dying inside at this. When you’re so desperate to get in a bit of gratuitous foreigner-bashing that you find yourself arguing *against* preventative strategies that try to prevent sexual violence, ffs, what have you become?
Dog-whistle and factually incorrect. Ladies, raise your hand if you were sexually assaulted by a boy at school? I’d wager this or a family member is most women’s first experience of sexual violence

At De Montfort Hall for Tom's Drama Group panto. On one level, it's wonderful to see 60+ severely disabled kids being fabulous. OTOH, the noise means that Tom is in meltdown & currently wailing.
Once he's on stage, he'll be fine - we have this every year. But the 2hrs beforehand are fraught!

Do you think Esme has been infiltrated into the village as a spy - by Russia, possibly, or folk beyond the Felpersham by-pass? That's why her accent keeps dancing hither and thither and why she's so keen to know about everything? Being totally boring is such good camouflage. #TheArchers
