@VinceMH You can approve payments using the HSBC app too... assuming they don't try to send you a text message when setting it up.

Superb. The trademark catchiness of old school Kunt & The Gang with the venom of modern day The Kunts, and a message we can all get behind. Shove your sausage rolls, this is the one.

So here's the thing. You can only violate people's legal rights and your own word so far before they lawyer up and come after you.

I really do hope Musk changes his mind and does the right thing - the employees deserve that. But it'll be fun as hell if he doesn't.

I'm lost for words.
It seems incomprehensible to destroy habitat in a public park for a ticketed event.

@LeedsCC_News are closing 1/3 of Roundhay Park for a winter light event and have destroyed habitat that held breeding Birds, Butterflies, Bees, Mammals and insects.

Imagine how great it would be if your tweet is the tweet that breaks Twitter.

If Twitter is about to end, remember this.

1/8 It’s Children in Need season. I always feel like an absolute grinch critiquing it because it’s so beloved and obviously raises much needed cash. But my ick outweighs my discomfort at being impolite so here we go (a thread)

Did Twitter Blue tweet just cost Eli Lilly $LLY billions?

Yes.

@missradders Try requesting it through the GP rather than direct with the pharmacy. We get them from Lloyds in Horsforth so it likely depends on the branch and their availability (we were told they take time to prepare so they can only do so many without needing extra staff).

People going ‘finally time to leave after 12 years on this hell site’ and then when you scroll down, they met their partner on Twitter, got a book deal based on one thread, and found a kidney donor through retweets.

Wind turbines really coming into their own this autumn. Currently producing 41% of all the UK’s electricity, at peak demand too.
