"Wouldn’t it be good,” suggested Ryder, “if someone had the overarching #nonpolitical role of identifying to #parliament and #government unfairness that ought to be redressed.”

New rule of law centre?

Former judge wants to reinstate lapsed academic post

A Lawyer Writes

I apologise for the negative post, as it's not usually like me.
I've done a great job of filtering out the non-English posts, and even most of the vulgarity. Now, I need to do something about the constant Marxist/Communist/Leftist junk in my timeline. I didn't join so I could be your comrade and commiserate on the evils of capitalism, or talk about people getting killed, or on the feminist front, how bad men are, or on the race front, how bad white people are, or how good or bad this politician is, or whatever people want to complain about this week! Where are the normal people who post things about pets or animals in general, gardening/plants, their daily lives, good food or drink, clothing, music, theatre, going to interesting places, good times with friends, interesting discoveries, etc? I won't go back to Facebook because of inaccessibility, but at least my timeline there was pleasant! Perhaps, I just need to review my friends and make sure that those whom I want to see more often have higher priority or some such. I'm adding some tags that probably don't belong here, in the hopes of attracting those who share some of my interests. I wrote an introduction and pinned it to my profile for those interested.

Completely #NonPolitical toot to make you smile:

How can tea biscuits be both so airy and yet so filling at the same time??

P.S., I lied. NOTHING is non-political. The fact that I have the relatively restful state of mind to make a silly toot about tea biscuits means that I'm not dodging bombs, or ducking lynch mobs, or worried about being outed or doxxed in some way because of my sexual orientation or gender identity.

P.P.S., Nevertheless, please #CW your toots, because having the frame of mind to discuss heavy topics without having some kind of psychological collapse is yet another form of privilege.

#nonpolitical #dogs If I could bottle cuteness and sell it, I could buy out Bezos and Musk.
In lieu of political news, I've put up a cat pic post featuring my little furballs. I know there are more serious things going on, so this is just my way of taking a breather from the bad news and serving up some #brainbleach for a little while.
