Trump - the king of fake news and hypocrite extraordinaire - has the gall to welcome someone elseโ€™s resignationโ€ฆ weโ€™re talking about a man convicted of rape and of tax fraud - who did not resign and never would. Incredible. And btw, I resent his interference in our media and our country.

in my experience on meadow land 1-1.5 acres per full size horse 0.5-0.75 for a pony and no more than 0.25 acres for a Shetland, those little buggers get fat sucking air. May need more space to properly exercise, poorer grazing requires more space or supplementary feeding.

I'll give you a learned rant I just bought a Aldine press 1502 book with English blind-stamped bindings possibly by Garett Godfrey and have found that both the British Library Bindings collection and British Armorial Bindings sites are of line in whole or part for the foreseeable future I'm pissed

Some actions have life time impact and should , a child abuser should never be employed in child care even if they have found God (whatever that means) we should all seek forgiveness, but that does not mean acceptance.

I feel like this photo of masked, armed men pepper spraying a pastor protecting his community is going to be a defining picture of this moment in America for a long, long time.

I have a 1890 Sammelband of the tracts of James Leatham (the Aberdeen socialist printer) including works by Elenore and Karl Marx, and the founders of the Scottish labour party. This would be enough to get you identified as the enemy within, no need to go modern.

Manchester synagogue terror attack: two killed and suspect shot dead Police say they believe they know identity of man behind car and knife attack that left four people seriously injured

Attacking a synagogue on Yom Kippur is a shockingly vile act of antisemitism. My thoughts are with the Jewish community. We must stand together to defend the right of people to practice their faith without being subjected to hatred and discrimination

Too many however there, we use limousine service ( but not rich, with two people used to work out same price as Heathrow express)

If we look at time all about same because of transfer times on helicopter and Heathrow express. So comes to convenience as such limousine hire is probably best door to door no transfers, however it is possibly most risky however a good driver would get round any hold up.

I was first aware of trans folk in 1960 when in the UK there was a cause cรฉlรจbre when the April Ashley went to Morocco for surgery, my parents explained it all to me (at age 8)including the surgery but more importantly the fact that it was unusual but not weird and essentially nobody else's business

I worked on the project to implement the 2006 ID card Act, the first issue is the data framework in which a register exists. unless this is addressed -> crash and burn. Failure to create a definitive framework is a major reason government linkage fails. Current plan is to work without addresses ๐Ÿคก's

Actually persuade others to buy books. If AI were to work How would we know it had unless we have an ability to check the output?

Here are two minutes of lowlights from Trumpโ€™s rambling, hour-long address to the UN General Assembly that Twitter is calling one of the most embarrassing moments in recent US history.

So did American taxpayers foot a cash bribe to an admin official?

Does he get to keep it?

Does this count on his GS pay scale?

Assuming he declares it, is it regular income or capital gains?

Can a state prosecute for fraud?

Chat Gpt is just so negative about this!

๐Ÿšซ What not to attempt
Building a DIY cyclotron, linac, or betatron at home โ†’ too dangerous (radiation, high voltage, vacuum hazards).

Attempting to replicate fusion devices like Farnsworth fusors without experience โ†’ also produces neutrons = radiation risk.
