London food friends: A friend of mine has asked for suggestions / recommendations for a restaurant in central London for a pre-Xmas get together of friends. 4 people. Prob late November. Perhaps something xmassy but doesn't have to be. She was leaning towards European and/ or Gastropub. Mid budget.

Such a bizarre claim from mainland China to lay claims to Taiwan, an island with at least 15 indigenous nations/tribes, and an island that China had as a colony for 200 years from late 17th century, and they have nothing to do since late 19th.
doesn't make sense.

A reminder that this anti-trans panic is 100% bullshit and exactly none of our country’s problems are related to someone expressing their gender identity and everyone who isn’t a hate-filled weirdo knows it.

Wow
A limited run of 25 very beautiful, tin-lined 8” copper prospector pans with exclusive solid copper handles, an ash spatula which can be etched with words of your choice, bundled up in a cotton bag.
Special without the schmaltz, not just for Christmas.

Yesterday's Sunday roast dinner was lamb Raan, another recipe from @sabrinaghayour.bsky.social 's Persiana Easy. (Pete's so enjoying coming from this book!)
He served it with a big old cauliflower cheese and some long stem broccoli. So good!

Cruelty is the point
A man rushed to the Broadview ICE facility searching for his wife. They followed every legal step, but ICE took her into another room and she vanished. He tracked her phone there when the signal died. Police told him to “look up her name online.” He sat in the parking lot, weeping, with no answers.

Your semi regular reminder to not buy Cathedral City cheese. Other cheddars are available, and superior in some cases.

If you know anyone in a similar situation re immigration issues (EU and otherwise), I can highly recommend @airecentre.bsky.social. Their legal team collected all the info needed and then issued the application on my behalf.
They are a charity so all their work was pro bono.

Excellent news: I've been granted settled status which allows me to apply for benefits. This is going to be another battle in the weeks to come so I can't afford to celebrate yet. If you would like to help, please donate to: paypal.me/karohemd
Proceedings have moved on by one step but a resolution is still weeks if not months away so I still need extra funds to help me pay bills etc. Anything you can spare would help. Preferred method is paypal: paypal.me/karohemd
Reskeets appreciated. Many thanks in advance!
I have updated my post about my struggles with mental health, battling the legal and benefits systems and a lack of funds over the last year:

The processes are very slow so any amount would be helpful. Donation options are in the link.
Please reskeet.
