It's the last day to sign this petition to the UK government. It's leaped a lot over the weekend, but I'd urge anyone who hasn't to give a message to Keir Starmer and David Lammy by adding their names: petition.parliament.uk/petitions/70...

Unbelievable. Donald Trump has been invited to a state visit to the UK. We should not be rolling out the red carpet to celebrate this man. Agree? Add your name to the petition today: you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/no...
No second state visit for Trump
Unbelievable. Keir Starmer has handed Donald Trump a letter from King Charles, inviting him for a second state visit to the UK. It’s totally unprecedented, and should not go ahead.  This is the...

"Will you join in our crusade?
Who will be strong and stand with me?
Somewhere beyond the barricade is there a world you long to see?
Do you hear the people sing?
Say, do you hear the distant drums?
It is the future that they bring when tomorrow comes!
One Day More!"

Think the Christmas DNA kits are starting to come through on Ancestry. Had a few new matches this week, one is a very high match but I know exactly who they are. Doesn't help solve my mystery but sorts more from that cluster of cousins.

After playing a fictional member of the Resistance a long time ago, I never could have imagined it ever happening in real life, but here we are.
Mark Hamill posting rebellious content in a battle against a dictator and his robotic sidekick is the most Star Wars shit ever.

@macmmret.bsky.social not sure why it wasn't showing before.
No, it comes up with 5, but I know that one group there was an affair and know how they link, and the other group there were two different wives (the two extra groups are on my aunt's paternal side not her maternal). My mum's maternal line (the side I'm looking at) has exactly the same. 1/2.

#GeneticGenealogy Q. I've done the Leeds Method on my great aunt's results. I know which ancestors each group represents, but none represent her maternal grandfather (her mother was adopted and I know the bio mum but not bio dad). What's my best next step to identify who he was?
