Oof. The Rings of Power Harfoot weird quasi-Irish/ West Country accents are an unfortunate expression of 'primitivism' in contrast to the later Hobbits of the Shire. A grim reminder of the deep rooted, internalized and unthinking hierarchy of (Southern) Englishness and the rest of Britain & Ireland.

Performative cruelty to impress knuckleheads who will never vote for Labour. This is particularly cynical without any safe and legal routes for asylum seekers in place!

"the right to protest is fundamental to our democracy"
Juuuuust not if you protest genocide in Gaza, right?
When will this Labour Government understand that the people they're trying to impress are NEVER going to vote for them?

Yesterday, I came across a theodolite in LEGO Marvel Superheroes. I love it. The clever use of the black flowers to form a tripod!
Plus I love how this bicycle is stored with its tyre separate... And Ant-Man shrinks 🥹

Celebrity Traitors thought: I wonder - Are they told to use the word 'theory' and not 'hypothesis'?
Because there are several people in the cast who surely know better?

The plural of anecdote isn't data, but when similar stories and the same names keep being pointed at...
You're getting closer to being able to shed light on something important and true.
It's a vague post, but it's satisfying haha

This cup bothers me.
It has the word 'snowdrop' twice inside the rim.
Why not space the letters evenly, so there's not a big gap?
Why not align the gaps between the two words with the cup handle?

I have always worried; big and small things, which led to an unfortunate habit of not being in the moment.
But walking Mortie this evening, I wasn't worrying, planning, or ruminating. I enjoyed the crisp air, the colours of the leaves and exploring the neighbourhood with my lovely little man 🥹🐾
