True humanitarian, used her fame and wealth to support so many. Humble, kind, compassionate and generous. She was unique in far too many ways. #RIP #DollyParton

Today I learnt that my downstairs neighbour is a racist pig. New couple moved in, chinese. Been here all of a day. The string of insults about them that he came out with while talking on the phone outside my window, about their culture and appearance, i’m genuinely shocked.

They’ve been doing this in France, and it produces huge amounts of clean energy and uses existing built-on land rather than fields. Should also be looked at for canals, reducing evaporation. It’s clean, cheap and beneficial.

Thames Water lenders preparing legal challenge in event of Burnham nationalisation. Bullying to extract cash from customers/govt. TW shares are worthless, debt trades at discount. Must enforce laws, impose fines, bankrupt TW. Creditors will get little. Nationalise, TW violated licence terms.

I can dream, can't I?

I tried meal prepping and accidentally created six containers of regret.

Petition: Codify rules for MPs' attendance in Parliament If I didn’t turn up to work, I’d be fired.

Er.. On one hand, i’m thinking “at least Ivanka isn’t going to feel so singled out anymore”…

Appeasing Trump. UK would need to divert £44.7bn from essential NHS services to pay for new medicines under the terms of the UK-US trade deal. US corporate profits boosted. Could result in more than 200,000 avoidable UK deaths. Self-sufficiency for essentials saves lives.

If companies can't run data centres without polluting our air and water, pushing up energy bills, abusing workers' rights, harming local communities or wrecking the climate – then they shouldn't be allowed to run them A safe climate and healthy environment are necessities – tech bro profits aren't

Remember all those times your parents told you off for leaving a door or window open? “You’ll let all the heat out!” Well it was a damn lie! Windows open, door open, and my living room is STILL over 25C at 11:30 at night… #HeatWave

…for a little more context

Renewables and battery tech mean it’s cheap to produce, runs at a surplus and ensures supply. Energy has moved on, so why are fossil fuels being allowed to dominate? We currently PAY renewable sources NOT to operate so fossil fuel sources can in the UK. Why?!

The Tories brought us 15 years of austerity 15 years of NHS underfunding ready for privatising 15 years of thousands of people dying in 'eat or heat' poverty Whatever they say the ex-Tories now deciding policy for Reform UK plan to give us more of the same meme via Godfrey Combrink

BREAKING: Greenland and 86 other countries have announced they are two weeks away from a nuclear weapon. Willing to negotiate settlements with Trump.

The older I get, the more I understand why cats just walk away mid-conversation

Interesting, isn’t it? Tax profits on one, turnover on the other…

I’d be surprised if even 10% of what’s charged actually goes towards looking after the child. If health and social care are to stand a chance of recovering, privatisation has to go. It’s nothing more than a scam in most cases.

This is a brilliant idea to force corporations to either raise pay rates for their employees or lower their payouts to CEOs 💯💯💯🎯

Whoopsie…

So, Makerfield MP Josh Simons has resigned, which is conveniently located for Andy Burnham to run (even citing Burnham in his resignation letter) Burnham also seems to be the only one who shows a lead against Starmer in voting intention. This might get interesting… #Labour #UK

Wes Streeting resigns and the sun comes out. Interesting?

When you do the “evil world class villain” voice in your head is it always in german? Is the remnant still left over from the world wars? Or are you starting to hear an American east coast accent? A little is a frump twang? #us #usa

I won’t pretend they’re perfect, but they are actually delivering on pledges. The economy is growing, things are starting to be fixed, and there are actual achievable plans that don’t leave financial black holes. Something reform have never been able to offer, or the tories ever bothered to do.

I don’t think people really appreciate how much of a difference having a NHS makes. NI is no different to an insurance premium, but likely cheaper, and there’s no excess to pay Healthcare in US literally bankrupts people, very frequently. You DO NOT want to copy that model

Thank you University of Oxford! 🐝🌎

If anyone can explain the plot to #ReturnToSilentHill more than “man goes back to silent hill and has random flashbacks in a creepy town” i’d be keen to hear it. Whole thing was just confusing spam…

Just in case anyone doubts that a Reform government would usher in a soggy mash of Trumpesque policies.

It’s so nice to see #Batman and #ThePunisher reprising their roles in #TheAccountant2

These birds are outrageous lol

It definitely feels like tomorrow should be Thursday.

#Cassandra on #Netflix gets real dark….

So, the #FuckWit is now officially in charge, and already announcing all manner of #FuckWittery I think i’ll give TV a miss this year.

Seeing this post a lot… What I want to know is how far back in the queue I am (do you think abyss customer services have a feedback form?)

I admit it. I’ll like anything that involves a picture of a furry animal. Rabbits Dogs Cats Raccoons Squirrels Middle aged men
