US Ambassador to Poland is a joke. Just been catching up. It's an(other) embarrassment. Esp over trying to pressure people to nominate THAT for a nobel award.

Every spineless Democrat that can't do the bare goddamn minimum of recognizing that hey, it's perfectly cool to fight in this environment when tens of thousands of Americans are protesting every few months, so let's at least not KEEP CAPITULATING TO A FASCIST DICTATOR... Primary into unemployment.

Also somehow making enchiladas today, so boiling (previously dried) beans and house smells of it

Bought wrong yoghurt so back to shops today but with Sunday trading it wastes more time somehow. What do you mean I can't start at 8am? Ah well. It's fresh air.

TikTok is now under US ownership and their new ToS reads like a guide to giving fascists everything they need to put you on a list.

They’re collecting information about immigration status, citizenship, sexual orientation, whether you’re trans or non binary and physical or mental disabilities.

So what I’m getting from this is no independent reporter can currently confirm if the President is alive. Is that correct?

Made peanut butter and chilli cauliflower salad last night for dinner. Our vegan years really fed us well, we still eat the dishes we learned then most of the time.

Went to the new Market Place food hall on Leicester Square. Pretty nice use of venue, decent variety - better than the chain restaurants on the square. We went fairly early and no problem getting a seat, but also they have an upstairs. This is my non-whiny post :)

Honestly, this slide into open-faced chaos can all be tracked back tk the insane decision to go the the British public with a decision like that, rather than to lead and explain why membership was so important. So cowardly.
