I’m Sarah, I’m a politics graduate from Yorkshire. A teachers wife, an ex-NHS worker & trade union rep. I’m now a Heart Failure activist & a chronic illness spooner. I like ideas information & random interactions with interesting people. Lefty & woke. #UKPolitics #Books #Poetry #Cooking #Health #Education #Cats #HeartFailure #Socialist #Woke #TofuEating

How to be An Genius:

1. Pay $44bn for a site worth 1/2 that
2. Sack everyone who knows how it works
3. Release far-right troll army
4. Turn genuine validation into a badge of idiocy
5. Kill most of your ad revenue
6. Inflate API price to recoup money
7. Everyone stops using API and scrapes site instead
8. Massively limit the service to end scraping
9. Service is now unusable
10. Remaining advertising value destroyed
11. Kill a cornerstone of the internet
12. Lose $44bn

@[email protected] I can’t wait to see it all once you’re done, send pics won’t you?
I’m catching up on book club books for the next few weeks, but when I said I’d read ‘The Watchmaker Of Filigree Street’ to you, I realised I’d only read the first three chapters then got distracted. Very good.
I’m also crocheting another bear for one of Evie’s friends. This one has the working title of ‘Bernadette’ 😂
Have you got your new glasses yet? Or I suppose what I’m asking is, are you reading? 😁
I know it’s not #caturday yet, I just had to share this pic.

@[email protected] Ooh, pretty! I love that teal colour with the orangey tones. Exciting! 😍
@weaniejeanie53 @[email protected] Ah, I miss Blackford too. No matter how god Flynn is, I think I always will.
@[email protected] Glad to hear it & no, I won’t tell your accountant 😆
I’m dipping back into the news again & after a six week break from politics, nothing has changed. At all. It’s still just as dire, depressing & undemocratic. I wish I had the energy to go protest.
I’ve had a bit of vertigo back the last few days so avoided screens. I’m less dizzy today though so I’m catching up.
Any idea f your deliveries exciting or is it all colanders & dish cloths? 😁
@[email protected] I’m (reluctantly) listening to it too. It amazes me how fast the PM is to admit that it’s only when information is in ‘the public domain’ that it becomes an issue for him. Don’t tell me they don’t already know what’s going on with corruption, nepotism, tax dodging & sexual violence! If he did don’t k is, he’s not doing his job properly & should resign immediately. Of course he won’t. They do not care. Unless they are caught.
@[email protected] thank you, I must admit that I’m rather fond of him. 😊
Studio Ghibli sends 2023 new year wishes with rabbit illustration from Hayao Miyazaki

It's that time of year again – New Year, New Me. But for Studio Ghibli, it also means sending new year's greeting cards, called nengajo.These are typically written on postcards, and sent to family, friends, and those who've helped you out...

Over 100 billion people have lived on our planet.

Just 622 have been to space.

Just 12 have set foot on another celestial object, our barren moon.

Not a single human has been to another planet.

We know of no other planet that can sustain human life.

Why is it so damn hard to get people to care about protecting the only home we've ever had and the only place we can live?
