This opening lack of letters is becoming a bad habit.

Well you got me beat, Donna! I had another opening drought.

I have absolute faith in you, Dave! 👍🏻🙂👍🏻

Keep up the incredible work, sir!

Oh, no, DM! Are you going to be sent to El Salvador??? ☹️

On a whim, I went for my *other* starting word this morning, which led directly to this.

When was the last time you heard a politician in the media asked anything like-

-How will you make sure asylum seekers can reach the UK safely & refugees are protected?

-How will you make sure people coming to this country to work or study are treated equally & with respect?

I cannot remember.

No, you're not! 😉

Welcome back, Dave. 👍🏻

Nicely recovered, DM!

Same here, MR, but I was able to step away and try a different connection.
Not pink though. Oh, no.

I'm going to keep on keepin' on with that "four furrow" for a bit longer, Donna. 😋
It sure felt like I was owed a green by line 4!

So true.

Look how big tins of #QualityStreet were in the 1970s!
Here's my mum holding her "sewing tin" (now basically a family heirloom), which I remember from a long-ago family #Christmas

Cover of The Power Fantasy issue 12

I haven't been this excited about each new issue of a superhero book since #Zenith in #2000ad in the late eighties. @kierongillen.bsky.social and team are just knocking it out of the park with Every. Single. Issue. of #ThePowerFantasy

The absolute bloody vandalism of austerity in one chart. Good analysis of the overall picture here.
