I just discovered an amazing site: www.teathority.com

Not a lot of point, now.

Still??

My basic heuristic is that in the UK election individual acts of electoral malpractice are easy to commit and hard to detect, but widespread, election changing fraud is hard.

The Daily Prayer App appears to have recovered from whatever was going down yesterday, at least.

"Umm... What you got there?" meme: Ukraine asking US who has a massive arsenal directed at Iran.

I can't imagine how pissed off Zelenskyy must be right now.

Starmer criticises Trump over Iran strikes, as he defends UK position The PM told MPs that Trump had expressed his disagreement with the decision not to get involved in the initial strikes.

"The lessons of history have taught us that it is important when we make decisions like this, that we establish there is a lawful basis for what the United Kingdom is doing."

🚨 It looks like the UK government is gearing up to upend copyright law in favour of AI companies, legalising the theft of their work.

This is despite creatives' huge protests, and despite previous proposals being roundly rejected by the public.

Please spread the word.

✨ Bottom Line: Guaranteed income isn’t a work disincentive — it functions as real employment infrastructure, giving people the financial stability to seek better work, invest in skills, and participate more fully in the labor market.

I have a vague suspicion we were told a few years back that there are no ethical criteria on the Church House hires.
I don't think we were paying attention because the issue at the time was about sexual morals not racism, but these might be birds we released #ComingHomeToRoost.

Ah, books... I miss them.
All mine are still in boxes. I've been trying to experience the same vibe by using the pdf. Which, tbf, isn't teccy enough to lose it's place in time, so there's that.

Nor yet (2.30)
Maybe it's a desire to pray with theologians from the Eastern edges of Europe? (Plus India)?

Thread 👇.

A vile, authoritarian and misogynistic regime that wears it's religiosity in a twisted, performative way, has no qualms in the public execution of its political opponents and has interfered, often violently in the affairs of other countries has now turned its attention to Iran.

"special health problems"
Bless your little cotton socks, 1920s equal pay committee 🙄.

BlueSky: the social media network for kids who were excited when it was a Wet Playtime.

Screen shot of feedback form for the pet food company Nature's Menu. Feedback reads "Really frustrating correspondance. Doubt I will order from you again." Screen page says, "we are always trying to improve our service, so your feedback is extremely important to us". Above that in small red print, it reads, "an error occurred while sending your feedback. Please try again."

Well. This about sums it up.

Put a new slant on the old "is the Pope a Catholic?" affirmative 🤭.

Refugee status to be temporary as Shabana Mahmood rips up rules on UK asylum Home secretary announces 30-month protection limit, with refugees required to leave if their home countries are later judged safe

Today is a dark day for anyone who believes in sanctuary in the UK.

People who've fled war and torture should be able to rebuild their lives in peace and security - not live under a constant threat of removal.

We must not stop fighting these appalling anti-refugee laws.

Reform win a seat: The true Volk have spoken and we all must listen.

Greens win a seat: Early reports that Muslims may have ‘voted’ (an ancient Islamic practice designed to steal elections). How severely should the franchise be limited in response?

😞

Really concerned to hear the Defence Secretary refuse to rule out UK's involvement in future strikes on Iran.

Iraq lessons must be learned.
Further escalation in the Middle East makes us all less safe.

Starmer must rule out UK involvement immediately.

"...noting that the number does not include missing residents who are potentially buried under rubble...

...includes only those killed directly by Israeli military fire in its tracking, not people who died of starvation or from diseases exacerbated by the war"

Pretty sure the nuclear family is a weird anomaly rather than the norm.
Most societies have sat on a much wider base, no?

Today is St David’s Day: patron saint of Wales, of course, but also of vegetarians and poets. He was reputed to have helped introduce bees to Ireland. He is famously quoted as saying “Gwnewch y pethau bychain”, meaning “Do the little things”. Small changes and good choices matter, especially now.

Dydd Gŵyl Dewi Sant Hapus!
Happy St David's Day, peeps 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿.
