Cannot stop thinking about how Octavia Butler wrote a book in 1993 about climate change. It opens with deadly fires in LA in 2025. In the story, a fascist President has just won office with the campaign slogan "Make America Great Again."

She was a modern day Nostradamus. If only we'd listened.

Bayer a pharmaceutical company and Monsanto a pesticide company. Bayer bought Monsanto.

Bayer makes drugs to help with Non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. Monsanto makes a chemical we use in the USA called glyphosate to spray on FOOD crops.

Glyphosate causes Non-Hodgkin's lymphoma.

Ofsted inspectors telling EY teachers that their planning isn’t detailed enough because they don’t write down all the vocabulary that they’re going to teach is really not ok. I’ve now heard of several cases where when the teacher says they teach vocabulary the inspector has said “prove it”
