In other news, I might have to put both the heating and the big light on today. 😱

In my family we say "I'm fair frawn" to mean you're freezing cold*, and there's something about the spikiness of those words that reflects just how cold you are?

* East Anglian vernacular.

I would like for just one mainstream broadcast journalist who is genned up on the Earth crisis to press a prominent government minister on how distant their policy positions are from safety and material reality.

To do this calmly and coherently and assertively.

More than one journalist, more than once, to more than one government minister would be great.

But let’s start with one. I’ve been waiting a long time for just one

What are steps I can take to deshittify a used iPhone so it's e.g. not a control freak and spy?

And for the avoidance of doubt, I'm not interested in a lecture on why I should use some other phone, thanks. It's about making the best of what I've got

We got *another* Zhang Yuan ost? 🥰

Should we focus on the drop in support for the NHS' 'founding principles' reported by the Kings Fund, or should we celebrate that despite the continuing engineered crisis, around three quarters of the UK population *still* support the idea the health service should be 'free to use, available to everyone & tax-funded'?

Support for the NHS actually remains pretty high in comparison with other aspects of UK society.

Glass half full or half empty?

"the kinds of big, human questions Bradbury wrote about: censorship, surveillance, climate, otherness, wonder, and what it means to remain human in inhumane systems."

Who would have thought that work as a light guardian mostly consists of resisting adorable smiles from the captured lights???
