I repeat myself but

Fuck Wes Streeting
Health Secretary Wes Streeting says that the British Medical Association, which represents Britain's doctors, is a threat to the NHS. Streeting took a record £225k from private healthcare-related donors in just two years.
British Medical Association ‘threat to future of NHS’, says Streeting ahead of doctors’ strike
Health secretary accuses doctors’ union of ‘cartel-like behaviour’ and tells it to ‘get real’ over pay demands

I've never been so excited to sign up for a newsletter in my life, sincerely.

I am a HUGE fan of Pam's work. And also her cat.
FINE, fiiiiine, I did it. I'm making a newsletter so people can keep up on shop updates. I generally only do a shop drop once a season at most so this combined with my aversion to emails makes it so I physically cannot spam your inbox.

join if you want updates from me

Truly, these are the moments when busting out the word "technically" should make a big red flashing light go off with a klaxon loud enough to drown out the rest of the sentence.
These people are among us and they really are posting through it.

The Boomers grow older, as they predicted.

And then, one day, they saw down every tree in the orchard to build their retirement cabin.

"I'm done with the orchard," they tell their kids and grandkids. "It's all yours. Enjoy!"

And now, they're annoyed when their descendants complain.

I keep telling this story.

Imagine a vast orchard, bequeathed to the Boomers by their parents.

They spend their working lives tending it, growing it, selling the apples and cider. They show it to their kids, and they say, "It'll be up to you to keep this going when I retire."

Talk about robbing the future from a generation.
The median age of all U.S. homebuyers is now 59 years old.

Just 15 years ago, it was 39 years old.

I have a stinking cold and have done for the entire week.

...which means I now know that, on these ADHD meds, even when sick I can get more done in a day, more efficiently and with more focus on what actually needs doing, that I could on an normal day before I had these pills.

Fucking Hell, eh!

Can none of these millionaires sex criminals write in full sentences? Have you heard of paragraphs? Punctuation? No wonder ChatGPT sounds like a genius to these clowns.

the only legitimate reason for a news organisation to sit on an email for years is so you can do this:

In case you missed it: Teen Vogue, previously a remarkably useful source of US political news, recently fired all the black women in their organisation and their entire political journalism team.

You can unfollow them now; I have.
