@PhilipProudfoot Also, as a female, I have no control over where my aim is. Most likely down my leg and into my bloody shoe. That's what happened last time I had to squat. 😣
Elon just called Hitler a socialist again, and every time he does this, Grok corrects him and points out that Hitler was a fascist.
Never deleting this app.
Yesterday in the UK, Bristol police arrested this child under the Terrorism Act for holding a sign with the words “plasticine action group” on it.
For anyone who’s unsure, it’s not yet illegal to mention plasticine action, Morph, Wallace & Gromit or Chicken Run.

Horrified disabled activists have called for answers from the DWP, after it revealed how a staff member accidentally tipped off an abuser that their victim was seeking domestic violence support.

President Donald Trump has said his administration is rolling back environmental protections established by the 1973 Endangered Species Act, saying it has been used to hold back human activity “unreasonably.”
“For far too long, Radical Climate Activists attempted to hold our Great Country hostage by drastically and unreasonably expanding the intended scope of the Endangered Species Act,” Trump wrote on Truth Social.
Why does he hate wildlife and the environment so much!! 😡

A sixteen-year-old boy was arrested in Bristol for holding a sign saying “PLASTICINE Action”.
This is exactly what people said would happen when Palestine Action were proscribed.
Yet another wrongful arrest that will make people frightened to say anything about Palestine.
Shocking decision from the government to approve a data centre over desperately-needed social housing.
31,000 people in Tower Hamlets are on the waitlist for council flats. This centre will do nothing for them, except consume an immense amount of water and energy. Appalling.
You can spend 20 years becoming an expert in someone you love.
Know every expression. Every sound. Every tiny sign that something isn’t right.
Then someone who has known them for an hour can walk into the room and their opinion carries more weight.

Hitler said communism was a threat to Germany. Then he burned books to control thought. Banned unions to break workers. Rounded up dissidents to silence opposition. Handed the economy to industrialists to secure loyalty. And called every step "national security." You're quoting him, copying him, serving the same oligarchs. We remember how this ends
The billionaire Epstein class desperately wants the working class fighting over race, immigration, gender & pronouns.
Because the nightmare scenario isn't left vs. right.
It's millions of working people suddenly looking upward & asking:
“Wait. Who the fuck took all the money?”
“I haven’t had a holiday since 2010.”
Imagine saying that after 16 yrs in paid employment
Working 90 hrs a week at today’s minimum wage: - £952,000 earned & almost 90 weeks’ paid leave accrued
As an unpaid carer: £71,926 (if eligible) & not one day of paid leave

⚠️ This hedgehog was brought to Tiggywinkles after being found out during the day, struggling to move. As many of you know, seeing a hedgehog active in daylight is often a sign that something is seriously wrong.
An X-ray revealed the heartbreaking reason...
This little hedgehog had been shot with an air rifle. The pellet, clearly visible on the X-ray, had caused devastating internal injuries.
Despite our team's best efforts to help, the damage was simply too severe, and sadly this patient couldn’t be saved.
Every loss is difficult, but cases like this are particularly heartbreaking. Time and again, we see wild animals suffering because of deliberate acts of cruelty, and it is something that never becomes easier to witness.
Hedgehogs are one of Britain's most loved and increasingly vulnerable wild mammals. They deserve our protection - not our harm.
If you suspect that someone is deliberately harming wild animals, please report it to the police or your local wildlife crime officer.
This little hedgehog didn't get the second chance it deserved, but by raising awareness, we hope we can help prevent another animal from suffering the same fate.
💚 Thank you to everyone who supports our work and stands with us in protecting Britain's wildlife. You can help hedgehogs right now by putting out a shallow dish of water in a shaded garden spot. Water is a life saver, especially in this hot weather.

Carer's Allowance was introduced in 1976 and turns 50 this year. Whilst the world has changed beyond recognition, the benefit has stayed largely frozen in time. Carer's Allowance no longer serves its purpose and needs to catch up with modern life. ➡️ https://t.co/r8ibI1ZGI4
Every conversation seems to be:
“I’m on annual leave.”
“I’m off next week.”
“I’ve just got back.”
I’m genuinely happy for them.
It just reminds me what so many unpaid carers have lost:
the freedom to stop
I genuinely DO NOT get the endgame. If the plan ends with a ruined planet, collapsed economies, and no working class left to spend money. What are billionaires actually hoarding wealth for? To sit in a bunker with numbers on a screen that don't mean anything anymore? Like what is the actual point? 😭
If an unpaid carer’s CV landed on your desk, what would you see?
A gap in employment…
Or 10, 20 or 30 years of leadership, crisis management, safeguarding, advocacy and coordinating complex care?
How should that experience be valued?
