Homosexuality is not a choice, but homophobia is.

Since Starmer was elected, @BBCNews and @BBCPolitics have been on a crusade to destabilize and bring down the elected government, having previously enabled Brexit, propped up a succession of incompetentTory PMs, and boosted the far-right Reform. People now are truly sick of it.

Which country are you in? Serious question as you may be ordering what is normal for there but they will have mince with a lot of fat and bacon the same as your preference but is not the norm in that country.

Wait, wait, wait. Milton Keynes has Ultras? What! Following MK Dons?????

Such an underrated band!

That's nothing! Thanks to the fertile imagination of Howard Sounes, nothing, for me, will top www.prints-online.com/sunday-sport...

I still think 'triffid' whenever I see one, having read the book before ever seeing an amaryllis!

Gladys Mae West obituary: mathematician who pioneered GPS technology She made key contributions to US cold-war science despite facing huge barriers as a Black woman.

No joke: I got angry hate mail today for writing an obituary of a Black woman scientist—because the person felt she did didn’t deserve the recognition.

Which just makes me want to share it again: www.nature.com/articles/d41...

The rood screen is pretty cool, too!

Vaguely interesting bit of trivia. High Wycombe in Bucks would have been the 'second largest town' in St V and the Grenadines in the 1980s. No one has a clue why almost everyone from St V & G was sent there by the Home Office!

Yep. What do do in the event of my death and key safe both done!

Hope your chronicling of your experience is cathartic for you. I'm sure it helps others too

This one captures the insanity of Trump et al.

Um, that's a complicated spread of cooking times! Squid needs long slow or very fast otherwise goes 'rubbery'. Shrimp goes rubbery if over-cooked and cod just needs to get up to 100C to be fully steamed/cooked. I'd create the tomato sauce then add cod, to the boil, and repeat, shrimp then calamari

Taylor Swift masters dispute - Wikipedia

Rights get sold and re-sold with bewildering frequency. If you remember Taylor Swift famously ran against this issue (and others) en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Taylor_...

Understanding Spotify royalties - Spotify

My understanding is that Spotify pays who ever owns the rights. Record label/publisher. Artists are supposed to get a share of that but I would imagine many are treated like Bonnie. support.spotify.com/us/artists/a...

If you are lucky enough to have leftover haggis try it as a 'stuffing' for chicken breasts served with a whisky, mushroom and cream sauce. Sorta/kinda Scots 'kiev'

That very milky tea took me way back!

You should try the Mitchell's brand chutneys and pickles. They are on another level. Most Asian food shops stock 'em as they are THE brand in Pakistan

Important to read if you have the time and can drive the font to a higher level. Messages from Bill Clinton and Barack Obama concerning the status of the US on numerous dimensions.

Um, so much my favourite film I got a Betamax player to watch it when there was a VHS issue with copyright!

My dad used to buy them as a group Xmas present for we four boys. They were awful covers!

Yeah, share your pain. Google maps sent me back to High Wycombe from Croydon via Epsom yesterday!

Strength to you and keep sharing if it helps. It's obvs a very tough time.

DO IT!!

I've an Aldi three minutes away on foot so it's my corner shop. There's also a 24/7 McDonald's, the smell of ancient cooking oil, long past when it should have gone to lorry fuel is always awful!

you know, it's fine if you don't watch The Traitors or whatever, but please don't come into the mentions of someone who's enjoying it to tell them you don't watch it/you think it's horrible/it's not behaviour to treat as entertainment/it's shit. Just scroll past and let people enjoy stuff, please.
