My 40-year-old wife went to buy champagne for our wedding anniversary dinner. I phoned the off licence after she left, gave a description of her and what she was buying and requested they ask her for ID. She came home absolutely beaming. It's the simple things.

70 years ago today, Rosa Parks refused to give up her seat, sparking the Montgomery bus boycott. We all must continue to carry her legacy, fighting for equality and speaking up against injustice.

Read the thread.
The consequences in their lives both professional and personal are unbelievable.
And this is in Europe.
Scary

If I wasn’t aware that I’d retired, I am now.

I’ve been getting personally addressed letters from every charity under the sun in the run up to Christmas.

Don’t want to be a scrooge, but…there are limits to my generosity.
Unfortunately.

🚨🚨This is no "peace" plan, it is a recipe for further suffering and #Russian imperialist expansion in the #west. It is difficult to appreciate just how much damage the #trump administration has done to #Ukraine and its war efforts. It is disgusting beyond words. 🧵 www.theguardian.com/world/2025/n...

GOOD NEWS! Researchers at the University of Exeter have found that getting vaccinated against shingles- a painful and debilitating condition that can flare up years after infection from varicella zoster virus- not only LOWERS the risk of infection, but can also PROTECT against Alzheimer’s disease!

Created by a Sicilian immigrant- Baldassare Forestiere, the #undregroundgardens in #Fresno is worth a visit. He built 10 acres of living quarters and citrus plantations . Much has been lost over time, but still worth a visit.
À man before his time !

L’inégalité salariale entre genres existe encore.

A partir d’aujourd’hui, et jusqu’à la fin de l’année, on bosse gratos les filles… 🤬
Selon un rapport de l'INSEE,l'écart de rémunération entre hommes & femmes à temps plein reste de 14,2%.
A partir du 10 novembre,11h30(aujourd'hui) les femmes bossent gratis chaque année, selon Les Glorieuses(newsletter féministe)
2167 serait l’année de l’égalité salariale si on continue à ce rythme

Arrgh! Just started this beautiful pattern from @purlsoho.bsky.social and just realised - as I get to the end of the short rows shaping the collar - that I've made a 1 st. mistake on one of the 1st ones, leaving me 2 stiches out to be equal on the front sides. Any advice welcome! Should I frog it? 🧶

Rory Stewart, "Trump is destroying the global order. Trump is on Putin's side"

"Trump wants a deal, a pro Putin deal. Putting Ukraine and Europe in a vulnerable position"

"I'm worried we'll get a repeat of what he did in Gaza. He will declare peace and victory when it really isn't a peace at all"
