A Czech peasant finds a magic lantern. Rubs it. Three wishes.
First wish: I wish the Chinese army would occupy Prague... and then go home.
Second wish: ditto
Third wish: the same!
The genie is puzzled: "why would you wish such a thing?"
You should see the picture in her attic!!!

When i looked at Internet censorship a few years back, it was clear that many uk institutions were just loading up US censor tools, as is, and...
...what the US considers adult is very different from what uk folk do.
Shame!
A spider's view: today the shed is a scene of death and destruction.
The ogress returned, and instantly set about her life mission of scissoring through carefully constructed web structures, and expelling undocumented arthropods from the place.
Correct.
The policy very much followed this picture, which we felt did not represent community aspirations - or further trans people's health and safety in any way.
We listened. We discussed. We put a policy in place

Last week, i wondered aloud whether carrying a banner in support of Palestine Action was now terror... but perhaps one asking for Palestine action might not be.
Now i realise that any banner not containing the uplifting message "Palestine must be destroyed totally" is terror.
Oh, FFS!

And i thought I was mistress of the truly awful pun!
I used to be out there and quite political... but age and a degree of impairment means i can no longer get out as much as i would like.
So i works from home, attended by MY floor (see pic above) and take my life in my hands once a week cycling into the centre of Letchworth.

Cause 100 years ago, twas the middle classes appointed to do the dirty work for the ruling class (titled nobs).
And now the labour government fills much the same role for billionaire techbros (just plain nobs).
Perhaps the lazy wasps should join a gym.
