A few weeks ago I went to Hay-on-Wye in Wales. It is a small book town, two hour by car from the closest big city (Cardiff or Bristol). It is a vibrant little town with cafes, hotels, and over two dozen book stores selling on the order of hundreds of thousands, or more, books.
Most people I know who are into books haven’t heard about it, much less visited. I first heard about it from @paulg on X and was curious enough to check it out. I highly recommend it if you like books and find yourself in the UK.
Primary school are being encouraged by local authorities & LGBTQ teachers/representatives to do away with separate boys & girls sport/races! Yet again girls loose out! This is not right. #SaveWomensSports
Elitist, entitled tosh. Billions of smallholders, subsistence farmers and nomadic peoples are entirely dependent upon livestock for nutrition, health, income, education, cultural status, and more. This populist rhetoric will leave the world’s poorest without help or hope.
