Don't do this. It's not wildlife photography, it's unethical clout-chasing.

I get the frustration with Starmer, but endless outrage without a viable alternative isn’t a plan. If we want something better long-term, we need to define it and organise towards it.

Saw the sky today. And further than a couple of metres. Exciting. I think we've already had this year's full quota fog.

You don’t have to vote or engage with politics for political parties to hold data on you. If you’re on the electoral register, they do.

That data can be profiled and used to infer characteristics. If it isn’t handled lawfully, that’s a risk to us all. To you!
They say no one is above the law, but Reform UK has tested that theory by ignoring the legal data rights of the very voters they claim to represent.

That changed this week 👇

My therapist just told me to limit my social media activity. I guess what I'm trying to say is, does anyone know a good therapist?

Big news: I ordered a coverstitch machine today. I now feel obliged to make activewear. I guess then I'd have to wear it and be active.
