Finally ordered Christmas wrapping paper after being indecisive for a month. Hoping I'm more successful at it than last year 🤭
It's taken me 30 minutes to wrap a square box 😭

I’m sitting in a Domino’s Pizza parking lot waiting to hand over some cash to a guy in exchange for an Empire Plastics Santa Claus blow mold. It feels like I’m doing a drug deal.

Few things better on a cold, rainy night than a massive pan of risotto 🤤

Just eating this straight from the jar and it's phenomenal. The best peanut butter I've ever had, even better than meridian which was my previous favourite 🤤

GB News broadcasted a package last week on analysis of people with "foreign sounding" names.

Peddling unverified and racist statistics on national TV is dangerous and we must call it out.

The Liberal Democrats are calling on Ofcom to investigate and take swift action.

Every Christmas ad in the UK:
How do you feel about…
Old people? *sad* old people?
Babies? Pregnancy! Nostalgia about babies? Children with nostalgia? Um…
Talking vegetables? *sad* talking vegetables? Characters from your childhood books? Talking to babies? Nostalgic babies?
Uh
Um
CRY DAMN YOU, CRY!

Labour’s “we have to do it, or racism will get worse” argument is striking. Any other public policy failures British ethnic minorities should be on the hook for? Can we be blamed en bloc for Rachel Reeves’ budget next week too? www.ft.com/content/37b0...
Defence of Labour asylum policy reveals backsliding on racism
Home secretary’s framing of failures is partly low politics, but also a result of ministers’ poor approach to race relations

I'm sure I'm not the only person who voted Labour as my number 1 priority was to end the pattern of increasingly extreme right wing government, not, as Labour strategists seem to think, because my pen slipped and I meant to put my X against the Refuk candidate's name.

Why is it that all this government and several of the opposition parties seemingly have to offer is 'tough, tough, tough' on everything? What happened to empathy and compassion? What happened to working hard to make as many people's lives as possible better?

Omg I just dropped my phone in a pan of potatoes (and water) and it's fine??? (apart from the US port which should dry out). So lucky 🤭
