Didn’t even watch #miraclemeat but I’ve ventured back to Twitter to look at all the idiots getting upset because they really think they’re making meat from Humans 😂

Day one of the notorious #GrandNational Festival.
Four horse died at #Aintree racecourse last year.
It’s #TimeForChange and tighter safety measures.

WE’re projecting testimony from women who’ve been mistreated and betrayed by the Met Police onto New Scotland Yard. We’ve been inundated by women sharing their experiences with us. Their stories are chilling. This is way bigger than #DavidCarrick.

@wep_uk#RottenToTheCore “You’re a young attractive female in a male dominated profession; you should expect some male attention.” Said the investigating inspector in his closing statement about a sexual assault by a male officer. I was 20 and also an officer on duty 💔
" oh it's only a joke. Surely this doesn't need reporting" police officer to me after I reported an individual for saying they would find me and rape me. They knew where I worked, lived, everything. I was terrified but apparently that isn't enough

COVID-19 is real. Racism is real. White privilege is real. Police brutality is real. Jesus wasn't white. Trickle-down economics doesn't work. Climate change is a threat. Legal abortion saves lives. The UN is important. Your world isn’t the world. Everything is not about you.
If you're a bit strapped, pop down to the Members' Dining Room at the House of Commons for pressed chicken and caramelised onion with tarragon and chive jelly, pickled vegetables and thyme sourdough at £2.84.
Don't forget to vote against free schools meals while you're there.
@ATDazzles Saw The Book Thief at @octagontheatre last week. One of the best musicals I’ve ever seen. Would love for it to go to the west end so I could see it again!
my family was just forced to vote at gunpoint in russian cosplay of a “referendum” in southern ukraine:
- they come to your house
- you have to openly tick the box for being annexed by russia (or for staying with ukraine if you feel suicidal)
- all while armed gunmen watch you
UNBELIEVABLE! The membership list of the white supremacist Oath Keepers just leaks — and it includes over 80 Republican politicians, 370 police officers and sheriffs, and over 100 active-duty members of the U.S. military. They must ALL be fired or impeached from duty IMMEDIATELY!
Word of the day is Zugzwang [tzoog-tzwung]: a situation in chess (and life) in which a move must be made, but each possible one will make the situation worse.
1.3m people attend Notting Hill carnival and 38 people get arrested. [0.0029%]
“Nationwide headlines”
105k daily Reading and Leeds Festival and they have a 16 y/o dying from Ecstasy, 50 people were ejected for “serious disorder” [0.04%] and tents were set on fire.
Silence…
