A deep-field image of the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) captured by the James Webb Space Telescope's Mid-Infrared Instrument (MIRI). The image showcases a vast cosmic landscape filled with countless stars, nebulae, and interstellar dust. The LMC, a satellite galaxy of our Milky Way, is a popular target for astronomical research due to its proximity and abundance of star-forming regions.

@WigAndPens Look what arrived today. A present for my eldest for completing her PGdL (and starting studying for SQE1).
And something very nice for me!

Thank you, they’re lovely

Thanks Amanda.
I share your views that some CoP cases would absolutely benefit from mediation.

But there are undoubtedly cases where mediation has no chance of helping.

Much better than the built in camera

Aldous Huxley’s quote comes to mind, β€œReality cannot be ignored except at a price; and the longer the ignorance is persisted in, the higher and more terrible
becomes the price that must be paid.”

Meme β€” 3 images from Seinfeld of George and Jerry talking

George says
Why do billionaires care if they lose all their money? They'll just pull themselves up by their bootstraps and make it all back with their unbelievable work ethic. 

Jerry says 
Plus if they're poor all the money will trickle back down to them making them rich again.

Who is "Europe Invasionn" and what role is their disinformation playing in the #UKRiots? 🧡🚨I wanted to do another thread on the X account β€œEuropeInvasionn”.

Every time Elon Musk retweets false racist information from EuropeInvasionn, I'm going to post this thread I did on EuropeInvasionn, and make this point - if anyone should've been arrested over Southport - it's EuropeInvasionn open.substack.com/pub/marcowen...

and

"I went along for my appointment to have a query basal cell carcinoma removed, to be greeted by a PA. I was told if I didn't agree to let them do it, I could go back on the list. I'd been waiting months as it was, I went ahead but regretted it instantly"

French national living in Leicester for 42 years faces deportation Leonarda Zarcone found out she did not have residency when she returned from a wedding in France.

Who could possibly have predicted that elderly very long term residents that don’t really use computers would be rendered illegal by the UK government’s approach to EU citizens’ rights?

There will be thousands of others in a similar situation.
