#fifa #worldcup and it was this point that we welcomed the Vogons and their awful poetry as the planet was destroyed to make way for necessary hyperspace bypass. So long and thanks for the fifa.

For 3 years at 16, I had the joy of working with about fifty 80 - and 90 year olds at a national charity. It shaped my entire way of living and working. Here are some you might want to know that you probably don't see alot on here.

A thread 🧵 from my friends since past.

Our simple job is to become a space faring civilisation. In order to do this, we need to resolve our terrestial issues first.

Nilhilsts like Trump and countries like Saudi where everyone and everything can be bought and sold are the enemies of our future.

Fuck them.

If anyone has people in their network who work in charities which deal specifically with issues of rural poverty I’d be grateful for any connections. Not rural homelessness, although I appreciate there’s a crossover. Scoping out a possible follow on to Outsiders focused on this subject.

@davidsquires.bsky.social so I bought the Lowry one which is great but I would love to bookend it with the Jackie Charlton one which had me in tears....

Hopefully you can persuade them on that one and hope you get a share of the proceeds

Oh look. An opinion piece in the NYT that opines that the genocide in Gaza is not genocide because it's not organised and gas chambery enough.

It's just a somewhat clumsy attempt to destroy the other terrorists(gift}

Wow. I could not have written a better article if I was head of the Public Investment Fund of Saudi Arabia. But I'm not, and neither are you. Looking forward to your next article confirming public executions leads to better university results! The Economist my ass.

This used to be called Russian Vine, but nothing good comes out of #Russia, so now we call it Ukranian Vine, because like #Ukraine it grows strong and nurtures and protects, in this case, #honeybees
