@syulang@climatejustice.social @PhilipCJames@mas.to @wood5y@mastodonapp.uk @UkeleleEric@mstdn.social But years of petroleum influenced government policy has said that it should profit international conglomerates. It's not public infrastructure for people to be able to efficiently travel to work, let alone have 😱 fun at the weekend. The corporate lobbyists & right-wing think-tanks surely couldn't be wrong🥴

@Tattooed_Mummy yep when our rescue passed we tried to get another rescue dog but had the basic stipulation that it had to get on with our remaining rescue dog. That, apparently, was not acceptable (around 5 organisations) so we got a puppy.

@DarkOptimism @goodlawproject And not forgetting this from their CEO... "Palantir CEO Alex Karp thinks his AI technology will lessen the power of “highly educated, often female voters, who vote mostly Democrat” while increasing the power of working-class men." https://newrepublic.com/post/207693/palantir-ceo-karp-disrupting-democratic-power

@ChrisMayLA6@zirk.us @sjwrenlewis@econtwitter.net Did you watch https://www.channel4.com/programmes/wrestling-with-trump ? That wrestlemania approach to politics, that the "news" papers love drives intelligent debate away

@syulang@climatejustice.social @PhilipCJames@mas.to @wood5y@mastodonapp.uk @UkeleleEric@mstdn.social yep small, unkind, selfish, anti-social ones that it should learn to regulate 😉

@pete @ChrisMayLA6 And interesting that quantum computing, particularly if it has a Moore's law equivalent, is likely to make the investment redundant.

@ChrisMayLA6@zirk.us Swindells by name swindles by nature 🙄

Stan is still feeling sorry for himself after opportunistically getting out of the gate (we suspect the postie left a small window of opportunity) and gallivanting across the road to our neighbour's house. This was Thursday so in 35C heat. He got heatstroke 🙄 meaning we couldn't leave him with a relative as dog sitter to visit our great-nieces naming ceremony. He's still off his food but capable of begging for morsels of my breakfast toast. Fortunately it's cooler today. He's not sorry and won't learn from his experience 🤦 #Dogsofmastodon

The only sound was the Buzzard call between parent & young. #silentsunday

Go Ben Healey go 🚴 #tourdefrance get EF Education Easypost a win

@Lana@beige.party up until recently the only time the England flag was waived by anyone was at a football match, on the rare occasions England got to the World Cup Quarter/Semi Finals the country would go flag mad. Any other time and the general opinion was that the individual waving a flag was a twunt / wasn't an English thing to do. Over the past couple of years right wing flaggots called 'raise the flags' started putting flags along roads in the name of 'patriotism' although intimidation, fear and anger is what they brought. They were illegally put up, allegedly dangerous to drivers and some councils, fed up with the cost of removing them & intimidation/ attacks on their employees removing them, got a court injunction to stop it.

@Maker_of_Things@cupoftea.social love Machynlleth, have a fun day

@catsalad@infosec.exchange when you discover dogs do you stand your ground & hiss or run away? P.S. my dogs get confused by cats that stand their ground 😅

@catsalad@infosec.exchange I think Ian Dury struggled with that view and came up with this... 😁 https://youtu.be/CIMNXogXnvE?si=aLDndG0-9irf1rRV

@CiaraNi@mastodon.green 👍 saw it on Digging for Britain and was amazed at how it could communicate different commands in battle.

@ChrisMayLA6@mastodon.me.uk yep the increases in pension age 'due to people living longer' clashes, which is a trailing indicator, against the leading indicator of quality of life decline (i.e. the ability to work longer) will cause problems.

@davidho@mastodon.world our favourite place names, for fans of police drama, are the nearby Fetcham & Bookham 🤭

@Remittancegirl@mstdn.social however there's an assumption that you can schedule your life to be able to wash & dry it in a day 😉 Also, unusual in winter# in the UK, an assumption it will dry in less than 12 hours without the use of a tumble dryer. A spare fitted sheet takes less space than a tumble dryer. Winter# as in cold & wet for a long period can be relative in the UK covering any period in the year 🤭

@Remittancegirl@mstdn.social @Bumblefish@mastodon.scot And TradWife / CottageCore often seems to be associated, almost like a gateway drug, with a whole bunch of 'traditional' right wing anti-feminist values. FFS who would want to go back to hand-washing clothes 🙄. I remember the mangle, washboard etc... at my Grandmothers. So to any romantic CottageCore picture add a filter if winter cold; grey and wet.

@suearcher@toot.wales a bit of Welsh "sunshine" to welcome you 🤭

@beecycling@wandering.shop and where is this mythical Britain with actual wet stuff falling from the sky 🤭

@beecycling@wandering.shop have a listen to this, like a mantra... https://music.youtube.com/watch?v=RRMGnskdqig&feature=gws_kp_track
