@DreyfusJames That poor woman looks and sounds like a bloke. How unfortunate.

So I have been chronically ill for about nineteen years.

And I came to belief in God about five years ago, baptised in Jan, 2024.

And since then there have been times that I have prayed for healing. Nothing changed. I had begun to think that maybe my sin is preventing it. Or

@CharlotteCGill It's another one they kept asking if we wanted it until the one time they got a yes or had it forced upon us regardless

@andyburnham Burnham: devolving power to the regions is the answer.
Also Burnham: Rejoining the EU and pooling power at a supra-national level is the answer.

@AngelaGhadx9 @CharlotteCGill @loonytunes2022 What century are you living in?

@katiewaissel24 If I've got just one, hiking in the Alps for me 😊

@AshyCompounds What you're deliberately ignoring is that the government previously reduced the cash ISA tax free deposit allowance. This rule change prevents people getting round that. People are really complaining about the original allowance reduction, but you know that don't you?

@Trish_NornIron Appreciate my jolly hols are low on the list of priorities, but l was thinking of having a few days in NI next week. Do you reckon I'd be okay to get from Belfast airport to Ballycastle in a hire car? 😬

Wonderful introduction to the Watercolour paintings by North Yorkshire artist Simon Palmer
One of my favourite artists. These are well chosen selections of his work

[EM Burlingame - 蒲 奕 言 @EMBurlingame]

Excerpts from This Our Restoration by E.M. Burlingame (out 1016-06-07) - a 🧵

1/ "The Slow Hate of the Saxon"

"The Saxon is patient. He is practical. He is, within his own community, remarkably tolerant of eccentricity, dissent, and difference… And he is slow to hate. This slowness is not squeamishness. It is not the absence of the capacity. It is the discipline of a people who learned, over eleven centuries of hard experience, that hatred deployed prematurely is hatred wasted."

@MrTCHarris At least he's nailed that age old problem of how to maintain a good look after going bald 🙌

Dr Robert Wilner injected "HIV positive" blood into himself. Guess what happened?

Nothing. Because the particle that they call "HIV" doesn't exist
