UPDATE from Peckham:

The coach has been driven away empty by police - once it had its slashed tyres changed 😂
The Met are now attempting to kettle the protesters. Multiple arrests have already been made.

@fkamiah17 Clive Dunn in the guise of lance corporal Jones is not exactly my goto philosopher, but he did say of the nazis 'they don't like it up em'

“The way in which the fiscal gap for Wales is calculated by the UK’s Office for National Statistics is sufficiently clear for a political analysis to determine which aspects of this subvention will be relevant for an independent Wales. My analysis has determined that the figure will be approximately £2.6bn, significantly lower that the figure of £13.4bn, frequently quoted in the media.”

Friday is gonna be... weird. First time in public around people who 1) know me, and 2) don't know the specifics of why I was in the hospital.

I am hoping there won't be too many comments about the weight. I figured I needed to be seen now before it's much more apparent - if they don't say much now, they never will.

(I'm not ashamed of the surgery. I am just not interested in the DISCUSSION. And I DEFINITELY don't want the "oh, wow, great job" that signals that if I suddenly went back to the same weight, folks would think worse of me.*)

*SPOILER ALERT: I now do not even like to eat, so I will be surprised if that happens, but still: I do not want my worth tied to my weight, bad or good.

Just seen someone on the dark side saying they're sitting down with their four and six year old children to watch the "nice, wholesome children's film" ... Watership Down 😱 😬
That's their Sunday ruined. I only ever saw it once and this is literally the only thing I remember about it.

@fkamiah17 indeed and according to my daughter Oliver Twist turned out less suitable than she had hoped for an 11 and 7 year old.

One of the things I hate most about living in a non-English-speaking place is that I start to lose intellectual vocabulary.

I sometimes have ideas which are really complicated to express, and I know how the structure of the argument goes, but when I get to the last part of speech production, I find that the very very specific word I need isn't there anymore, and I know that it once was.

@grrrr_shark I recommend learning a new language (preferably cymraeg) then you can have the same problem but you know, what's name, thingy....

@fkamiah17 there were two international standard French climbers (boulderes) Fanny gilbert and Luce douady (Luce was killed in a tragic accident) - supporters used to happily shout out their names in various combinations.
