So, the Orange man wants to reopen Alcatraz. An "improved and expanded " Alactraz. Which closed due to the high costs of operation. And which will cost millions to bring up to any sort of reasonable specification. Nice how he likes to spend taxpayer money.

You can do tours in a Paddy Wagon.

To my American friends: whilst I love you, you need to understand that your country is now a toxic morass where too many of you shout and post memes but do not *do* anything to stop this descent into Tyranny and a new American isolationism. Protest in public. Write your President. Flood his office.

In this article the authors "focus on the consequences of emotional labour for senior probation officers in England and Wales" and look at how organisational priorities and goals might be "refocused to ameliorate the emotional toll felt by SPOs and benefit the organisation as a whole".

We could all use a cat or two.

Well, the FOTUS has imposed his tariffs. Canada and Mexico have started their responses. Neither will be bullied. Life is going to get interesting.

The Orange Cheeto has shown that he lacks the intelligence of an orang-utan by telling the Davos meeting that Canada could become the 51st state in order to avoid tariffs. He also said that the US does not need Canada's cars and lumber. Clearly not aware of either economics or history.

Still worrying about all my friends in SoCal but hoping to see them all at Gallifrey One in less than a month.

One of the best memories.

Thank you for this vote of confidence @donkoclock.bsky.social. 🙏 💙
