@jk_rowling You’re not untalented. I love your stories - from Harry to Cormoran & Robin. My young kids are just starting to learn about Harry’s world. But, I have had to frame you the same way I had to frame the school production of Jungle Book & Kipling. I think you’re projecting pain.

@2A_AllDay What has already happened to his own daughter?

[Laura Muir @LM_Counselling]

@infovoy_v2 @theAliceRoberts They did say that it puts artifacts and archaeology in the wider neighboring landscape at threat, but they need PR to help them write in more consumable sound bites unfortunately. It’s hard to get their gist by just skimming , which is what gen pub often want to do.

@Airbnb @AirbnbHelp @Airbnb_uk claims they will help. Then, 20 mins later (‘after careful consideration’ 😏)… nada. Just despicable.

[Laura Muir @LM_Counselling]

@Airbnb @AirbnbHelp @Airbnb_uk will absolutely never use Airbnb again. Doctors note & clear photos. Contacted immediately. Run around and lost so much money. Terrible. Hotels going forward. Better service.

@woodchippell @MeidasTouch @ThmsHoward Such an all around accurate comment.

[Laura Muir @LM_Counselling]

@btcidiot @githii It’s different in every state. I think the companies probably want their actual price marked. I guess locals all know what the tax is (%), so no surprise. It is annoying, tho.

@NandosUK @DeliverooHelp Your dedicated team was so rude and dismissive on the phone. I explained that 3 hotel staff witnessed this, but they kept saying they have a photo of him leaving the food - a photo they wouldn’t share or describe. Here I am sick, alone with two young hungry kids. Awful service.

[Laura Muir @LM_Counselling]

@NandosUK so dismayed that my delivery was witnessed by hotel staff as being taken away and Nandos refusing to refund. Sick in hotel with small, hungry kids and you just stole £40. Wouldn’t even share the supposed delivery photo. Shame on you.

@Culture_Crit Istanbul or Edinburgh. The architecture mixed with the natural landscape does matter.

@HalifaxBank I was not advised and was told that I owe money, but they can’t take payment.

[Laura Muir @LM_Counselling]

@HalifaxBank been trying to pay bill since 6 June, but you keep rejecting payment and send me in 7 circles of hold call hell. calling from Korea each time. Please help. 😩

@carolvorders I grew up with PEMDAS (in the US). They’re just interpreting it wrong. It’s 1 in either style. 🤦‍♀️

@Joyce_Karam Not just NZs

@DavidOlusoga I wish the British could stand and look from the outside that they’re protest says so much more about the society than M&H.

[Laura Muir @LM_Counselling]

@TheSpilster My Ayi always put produce in it. I shoved extra drinks in it. 🤷‍♀️

@LeaningEmma The frantic sense of needing to escape an amorphous threat when things got bad again in the last few days made me realize there must be a bit of ptsd after all.

And that’s how April ended.

@aus_forum @LeaningEmma I know local Chinese who have started looking at ways to leave. Not wealthy ones - easier for them. More middle class Chinese who may have skills and education but not connections.
