Husband is shivering and not looking great at all. We get told 'that's not life threatening,' and whilst I appreciate his head isn't half hanging off, I'm just wondering if I need to seek a second opinion or another hospital or I just don't know. 😔

bandage covering a deep hole with bone exposed and co codamol...he's in quite a lot of pain.
I know the NHS is in a mess but surgeon at large hospital didn't even look at his wound and wasn't going to read the notes until I made him. I'm really worried of the consequences of this, feel fobbed off

And yes, it is greed...they're getting away with it and there's no excuse for it!

We run a small catering business and we either accept our own profits getting squeezed again or we put our own prices up and put off our customers.
The cooking chocolate we use for our brownies was 49p a bar in Tesco, they put it up to £1 before Xmas then reduced it to 70p after!! Insane mark ups!

My winter garden today. Eerily still, frozen fog, frozen trees by ice and stillness, absolutely no wind, just the birds flitting between the trees.
Ice cold and beautiful.

There's always been a certain loyalty to a 'team' as such...My family always voted Labour for example but some of it is now cult like and that's scary. I see this happening here in the UK and the states in particular.

No I hadn't, just followed and clicked your link. I teach and I see the damage daily of excessive social media usage in the kids and their adults so I'll have a listen. It's something that really interests me.

Most humans are well balanced. Some are crazed lunatics.
Some are vulnerable and thus being exploited by crazed lunatics.
Some are just plain selfish and greedy.

Why does there have to be extreme sides? There used to be a time when debate was more rational and less polarised and I enjoyed talking and listening to people with many opinions. Twitter is just a hate fest full of warped 'facts', racial slurs and disinformation now.

There's a few people who belong in Musk's brainwashed den coming over here though, I've noticed... 😬

Agree with the meme but you do know there are places in the middle of last stage capitalism and communism.

We are less connected now than we ever were...none of Twitter and Meta's connections are truly meaningful.

I'd really like to but we run a business page on Facebook and also need to keep in contact with local area groups for marketing or networking. Any ideas on how to get round that? I'm less bothered about social contacts as I talk to and see the people I want to have in my life.

Exactly! Appeasement didn't work and it still doesn't work. Neither does just ignoring the problem and hoping it will go away. He needs to fight this head on along with the backing of the EU.
Things are incredibly dangerous right now.

In the face of human suffering and disaster, MAGA never says "How can I help?", but "How can my entrenched world view by magnified by this event?" They say "Look at how this tragedy proves everything I already thought before this tragedy occurred."

I know this, but the fullest extent gets even more bizarre and extreme by the day.

Most Americans on X are not even showing the slightest sympathy or acknowledging any climate truths, they're just blaming California. It really is quite horrifying to watch.

They've sat by and watched this unfold for far too long now. It's a bit like how people sat and watched Hitler and tried to appease him...look where that went. It's time to get tough. And the time is now.
