Happy World Walrus Day! The English word walrus probably comes from Dutch and means “whale horse.” The Albanian name for a walrus, lopë deti, means “sea cow.” And the Navajo word for a walrus is tábąąstííntsoh bideeʼ hólónígíí. It means “big otter that lies on the shore, with tusks”

100% this. Have had this very conversation today! The hypocrisy is real. What would the press be saying as well?
What would Nigel Farage be saying about Keir Starmer right now if a former leader within his party was going down for ten years for being in effect a traitor to his country?

“Did Nathan Gill ever say anything you disagree with in return for his bribes from a Kremlin stooge?”
“Did you, in your roles as his boss, friend, mentor & party leader, ever question his full-throated support for an enemy of the UK and if not, why not?”
You can have those for nothing, lads.

Rachael Johnson: "Boris did his best".
Only because his best has always been fucking awful.
Let's consider Boris Johnson, a moral man and a great politician: I'd love to talk about all three of them, but I only have space for Boris.

Just a couple things that some of the 1500+ January 6 defendants have been convicted of since Trump released them back onto our streets.

This has been my worry all along with the breakfast club nonsense. You can talk about funding all you like, the long and the short of it is that school leaders end up with another job on the list, another extension to their working day, and the job becomes ever harder...
And this is from DfE advice!

I have done the unthinkable…. Put the volume up on my phone. Have a call coming and can’t miss it. Also have things to do so can’t watch it compulsively like I would usually do. No doubt the noise will frighten and confuse me when it does ring. 🤣🫠

Well, it's not sudden. It's just suddenly being REPORTED. This rot was a deliberate policy choice, and I kept the receipts. Because I'm not the BBC.

I never understood the push to get ALL women to have children. children are a blessing to the community overall, if it weren't for them I wouldn't be able to illustrate books for them!
However, not every woman should be having their own kids when she doesn't want them.
