The project is complete. The feline has expressed her satisfaction.
A tabby sits contentedly in the gutted shell of an old cathode ray tube television. There’s wallpaper on the back of the TV and a paw print-shaped light hangs on the back wall. The floor is lined with a fuzzy brown blanket.

The "delete it, who cares?" mindset of a lot of studios now reminds me of how the BBC didn't think it was important to save their history either and mindlessly destroyed millions of pounds worth of their own IP.
Wipe Out: When the BBC Kept Erasing Its Own History
In the 1950s, '60s, and '70s, the BBC was so intent on erasing its original programming that employees could wipe a show with just three words on a generic form:

Emission Nebula (NGC 7822),

🪐🌌🔭
NGC 7822 is an emission nebula visible in the constellation Cepheus. It is located in the eastern part of the constellation Cepheus, about 9° north of the bright star Caph, in a stretch of the Milky Way strongly obscured by interstellar dust and unlit nebulae; the most suitable period for its observation in the evening sky falls between the months of July and December and is considerably easier for observers located in the regions of the Earth's northern hemisphere, where it is circumpolar up to the warm temperate regions.

Keir Starmer, "Don't forget what the Conservatives have done"

"Don't forget partygate.. Covid contracts.. The lies.. The kickbacks.. The division.. The scapegoating of minorities.. The failure to invest.. The trips to the bookies.. The decimation of your public services..

"Don't forget any of it"

Just think. If the men of the 1850-51 #FranklinSearch expedition had been a little less uptight, our maps could have been blessed with Cape Boobies.
A screenshot from the Inuit Heritage Trust Place Names Program site. It shows Cornwallis Island and Griffith Island (Qikiqtaaluk/ᕿᑭᖅᑖᓗᒃ). There are several orange dots on the map showing the Inuit names and history of places that were named by outsiders in the 19th Century. Highlighted is Cape Dungeness, named by the 1850-51 Franklin Search expedition. The Inuit name is Amaamannguap Nuvua and is a lot more accurate: "Named for two hills behind this point that look like breasts."

Let's not forget that the unelected Liz Truss was almost successful in bankrupting the UK in 46 days.

“UK CEOs not paid quite such grotesquely, obscenely disproportionate sums as their US counterparts”

Cry me a fucking river. They’re all part of the problem, not the solution.

Eine leckere Nussmahlzeit.
#sqrlpix
Rotes Eichhörnchen, von vorn gesehen,, hockt auf den Hinterläufen auf einer Baumscheibe, leicht nach vorn gebeugt, eine Hasrlnuss zwischen den Pfoten, die es zum Mund geführt hat, und daran knabbert. Der Schwanz ist nach hinten hochgestellt, und das Schwanzende ragt über den Kopf hinaus. Rechts und links unscharfe Grünpflanzen. Im Hintergrund unscharfes Grün.
