The public deserves services that are useful, usable and safe Sign our petition for better transparency and accountability

We're having opinions again. But this time, we are going formal.
UK government is publishing inaccessible vanity sites again. We've put in an FOI request and submitted a petition for government to be held accountable for their gross waste of money. contentdesign.london/blog/the-pub...

I helped mobilize a group of neighbors to provide direct aid to nearly 50 families who are in hiding from ICE.

These folks deserve fresh, familiar foods. So we're purchasing groceries direct from neighborhood Latino markets whenever we can.

Venmo @kristina-halvorson to help, and please repost.

Right, I need help here. Been waiting an hour and a half for a medical appointment. We all know as soon as I go to the loo, they’ll call me. Is it worth the risk?

Yesterday, I went to the gym at lunch. First time I’ve lifted weights in years. Then I sat at my desk for 4 hours.

I am so paying for it today. 🀣

Hello.
Very personal, maudlin one today.

Wanted to share some things that helped me when dealing with grief:
* there’s no rule book; just many ways to grieve,
* grief isn’t linear,
* sometimes it feels like drowning. Find something to cling on to and just float. That’s enough for today.

Luna (think mother of Lottie) is right in front of the jump. As owner shouts β€˜over’ and runs towards the tunnel, Luna runs off to the trainer who has the treats.
7/10. Clever girl, to be honest.

At dog agility training. Lottie (huge, fluffy black puppy thing - not sure of breed), took the jump, ran through the tunnel, scampered off to the next field, jumped the barbed wire, sloshed through the swamp ditch and then came back.
8/10. Would watch again purely for the owner’s reaction.
