I squeal about the child. A lot.
I also post pics of things (mostly plants, bugs, the odd mushroom, sometimes birds) I find on my walks.

![[Scene is a kitchen - a middle aged woman called JANET is boiling peas at the stove. A younger more colourfully dressed woman named LIZ approached her.]
JANET:
Ugh...
LIZ:
What's up?
JANET:
I am so bored of cooking peas!
LIZ:
Have you tried...
AI peas?
JANET:
AI peas?
LIZ:
They're peas with AI!
[Liz holds up to us a packet of peas labelled: Pea-i AI - Peas with AI].
LIZ:
Al-powered peas harness the potential of your peas
JANET:
What
LIZ [Now a voiceover as we cut to a whizzy technology diagram of peas all connected by meaningless dotted lines]
Why not take your peas to the next level with Al Peas' new Al tools to power your peas?
[Show a techno diagram of a pea with a label reading 'AI' pointing to a random zone in it]
LIZ:
Each pea has Al in a way we haven't quite worked out yet but it's fine
[Show Janet and Liz now in a Matrix-style world of peas]
LIZ:
With Al peas you can supercharge productivity and make AI work for your peas!
JANET:
What
LIZ:
Shut up
LIZ:
Our game-changing Pea-Al gives you the freedom to unlock the potential of the power of the future of your peas workflow
From opening the bag of peas
to boiling the peas
to eating the peas
To spending millions on adding Al to the peas and then having to work out what that even means.
JANET:
Is it really necessary to-
LIZ [Grabbing Janet by the collar]:
THE PEAS HAVE GOT AI, JANET
[Cut to an advert ending screen, with the bag of peas and the slogan:
AI PEAS: Just 'Peas' for god's sake buy the AI peas.

Surely there are several agencies actually responsible here:
-Labor, since 16 workers were violently killed
-Defense, since this is one of their suppliers
-EPA, since detonating twelve tons of explosives is probably bad
-the FBI, to investigate any potential crimes

Migrants already pay substantially more into the country than the average Brit, and take out far far less from the public finances. This move is pure and simple scapegoating and deflection from this government, while, as said, ignoring the reality of people's lives. 53/

one of the other things that class difference allows abusers to do is convince themselves that a) this would happen to the girls anyway, b) that they're actually doing them a favor, c) to be cheap as fuck about the whole thing and get off on that too.

this is an exaggerated version of something I've encountered a lot talking to other men about #MeToo stuff; they could imagine themselves as the accused man (and thus, in their heads, as the 'wrongly' accused man) but not as the victim of abuse.

one of the underlying factors in all the Epstein stuff is that his correspondents - even the ones who likely did not participate in abuse themselves - are completely incapable of imagining his victims as people. he is real to them, the girls aren't.
