I hate snow! It's a pain in the ass!
We have had about 1cm which is just enough to make our drive and close a problem, and there is more forecast this afternoon 🙁

There should be a complete ban on the sale of fireworks to members of the public, unless it is for an organised event, conducted by a certified individual or company, time and location-limited, and with an HSE compliant risk-assessment.
That’s it. That’s the first post of 2026.
Happy New Year. 👋🏻🥂

Water companies in the UK have been dumping toxic sewage sludge on farm land.
This sewage is polluting our rivers and contaminating the soil that grows our food and could also cause a risk of cancer.
We need the UK government to stop this immediately. Please sign the petition.

The volume of water needed to cool the servers in data centers has become a nationwide resource issue.
Volume isn’t the most pressing problem in Morrow County, however. The issue is pollution, which Amazon’s data centers have exacerbated since its arrival.

The pandemic of Covid-19 is still ongoing.
Covid-19 continues to pose a life-threatening danger to every human being.
Repeated infections of Covid-19 inevitably result in serious illness and early mortality.
Respirator masks are necessary for safety in all public spaces.

An enormous dereliction of duty by Starmer's government. Covid is a continuing problem that is becoming an economic nightmare. Catch Covid three times and you have almost a 40% likelihood of being left chronically ill. Long Covid is why the disabled benefit system is becoming unaffordable.
The MILLIONS of people who were denied vaccines are suddenly realising.
@rthonwesstreeting.bsky.social this was a terrible idea.
Not only will the NHS struggle this autumn / winter, but people will suffer and die unnecessarily.
It isn't too late for a U-turn!
