Why do the Windsors keep sending out press releases to announce "new photos" of their brats?
A new photo of Charlotte just "dropped". It's all over the flagshagging royalist media if you want to read about it.

@fkamiah17 because they have realised, that their entire existance relies on them being seen as influencers, a bargain basement kardassians clone as it were.

@Wen @fkamiah17 @AmFearUaine Many moons ago, I had a black retriever/springer cross dog, who I used to leave outside the library when I popped in. Trouble was the librarians knew him from a puppy and loved the softy and they used to go and bring him in and ply him with biscuits....

I did comment that they were happier to see him than me, and they agreed!

For the avoidance of doubt, no one at all has a 'legitimate interest' in anything I do on the Web, and there is absolutely no need to keep asking whether I'm going to make an exception for your website.

I'm not.

@simon_brooke I truly hate the enshittification. Pretty much every website these days has this, and cookies.

It should be required to have a reject all just as prominent as the accept all.

Or default to reject all so you have to choose to share.

@simon_brooke My other concern given the tracking companies and the value is that no matter what you opt for, they track you anyway.

Dear people who think George Galloway is cool - and I know you're out there - today he's announced that the Workers' Party has a policy to leave NATO, and that he doesn't think children should be taught that gay relationships are "normal" in an interview with Novara Media.
Have a word with yourselves.

Edit: Here's a link to the Novara interview with Galloway, with thanks to @virek for providing it.

@fkamiah17 @selzero galloway has never missed the chance to jump on a profitable bandwagon.

And wasn't he employed by the same russian propoganda tv station as salmond?

Oh I’m so anxious about everything. My heart is pounding. I’ve just got to focus on getting the result I need - a temporary suspension of my PhD studies. It will mean that my income is also suspended, but we’ll have to muddle through. As long as I don’t lose my PIP… 😬

"International Criminal Court (ICC) prosecutors have reportedly gathered testimony from staff of two major hospitals in the Gaza Strip, in what is believed to be the first confirmation that ICC investigators are speaking to medical workers about possible crimes during Israel’s nearly seven-month war on the besieged territory."

@Thebratdragon@mastodon.scot avatar

@fkamiah17 @MadeyeTheCarnaptious given that the US does not admit the authority of the ICC and has a standing diective that force may be used to remove any US citizen from its jurisdiction, that seems an odd move by them.

Keith's on GMB this morning trying to deny he said that Israel has the right to cut of power and water from Gaza. He "misspoke". Funny that several other shadow ministers - including Emily Thornberry and David Lammy - said the EXACT SAME THING on national television in the days after that interview with Ferrari, eh?

Remember: fossil fuel companies want people to focus on what uses #energy so we don't talk about the supply side.

They benefit from #environmentalists spending time and energy bickering with one another about whether AI uses too much #electricity, whether to support more #nuclear plants, whether we should mine more #lithium to have grid scale #batteries, and so forth.

That doesn't mean we can't talk about these things, but be #mindful where you spend your energy.

@adam fossil fuel companies hate wind and solar because their only cost is infrastructure, whereas fossil fuels have a constant need to be replaced.

Things I could do this coming week:

  1. Take the bus to the seaside and walk on the beach
  2. Take the bus to Biggertown and browse the charity shops
  3. Running
  4. Start my tapestry kit
  5. Follow a new path out to the woods

WEEK 31: Sorry for the Xitter link, but the police brutality on display here - clearly kneeling on protesters' bodies and punching them - is something else, even for German police.
Taken at the Berlin Peace Camp when it was dismantled on Friday.

but but but, if the Police do not hire brutal thugs, who else will employ them, think of the brutal thugs, happy as they finally have a job that aligns with their skillset.

Will no one think of the brutal thugs.

Having never had a smartphone (although, to be fully transparent, my wife does have one), I'm deriving a certain amount of amusement from the continuing rise in commentary on the health & wellbeing benefits of the 'dumb phone'.... which directly parallel my reasons for not wanting one in the first place.

"When that old order fell, it took the form of a well-earned landslide, and a clear step towards something genuinely new. After a decade and a half, the Bute House Agreement breathed new life into those fading hopes. Now it seems more likely that real change will come crawling out of a tomb, in a faded red rosette"

@simon_brooke I suspect the SNP fracture lines will spit out 2 or 3 new factions. The right whingers will go alba, the centre, don't know and the left a Scottish socialist party that will Align strongly with the SGP.

Whether the yellowtories, red tories or blue tories will gain seats or power I do not know.
