Lives in a patchwork of fields and neurodiversity with a pirate cat. Writer in residence at “The She-Shed,” - has probably forgotten to feed the kids.

@PhilipProudfoot @OVOEnergy Or that they might have had meters mixed up with next door, but their phone team were utterly impenetrable when trying to make them see sense.

@PhilipProudfoot @OVOEnergy I was recovering from chemo at the time, so I did not have the brain capacity to challenge it. I thought they might have been trying to recover a debt from a previous occupant as I had just moved in.

@linmeitalks Even if this were true, it's the point of social housing. She likely did not have that job when she was allocated the housing, but it's afforded her the kind of stability where she could work her way up to a job that provides for both her and her children.

It’s a good job the pensioners agreed to take the hit, because it would have been a real shame to have to tax the billionaires.

@RedDyke69 @MDJO @JamesMelville @robprogressive live rurally, and quite often do

Hace 16 años, un hombre se encontraba solo en una colina cubierta de hierba durante un festival de música en el estado de Washington, Estados Unidos, y comenzó a bailar solo.

La gente lo miró y luego desvió la vista.

Algunos se rieron.

Su compañero de habitación se acercó y le advirtió que lo estaban filmando.

No se detuvo.

Entonces un desconocido se levantó y se unió a él.

Luego otro.

Entonces la ladera se inclinó.

En cuestión de minutos, cientos de personas corrían desde el otro lado del campo para ser parte de algo que, treinta segundos antes, había sido un hombre del que se reían en un campo.

Alguien que filmaba desde lo alto de la colina dijo en voz baja:

"Mira lo que un hombre solo puede llegar a hacer. Solo un hombre puede cambiar el mundo".

El vídeo se viralizó en internet en 2009.

El emprendedor Derek Sivers lo proyectó en una conferencia TED para explicar cómo empiezan realmente los movimientos sociales.

No con la primera persona lo suficientemente valiente como para iniciarlos, argumentó, sino con la primera persona dispuesta a unirse a ellos.

Collin Wynter, el hombre que bailaba solo, dijo después que no tenía ni idea de que hubiera hecho algo especial. Simplemente estaba cansado de ver a todo el mundo sentado sin moverse.

@robprogressive A stable workforce needs homes and childcare. Landlords get paid, businesses can afford staff, the child care industry continues. the treasury gets paid. Otherwise it's council houses and state nurseries but investors would get cut out.

@IsabelOakeshott @reformparty_uk Cleaning the street pays quite well, as long as prior claimants are being paid the going rate and it's not being used as cheap labour, putting other people out of work, I imagine quite a lot of people on Universal Credit would take up the offer of decent paid wok.

@mariellaf1 thought Mike might need it dumbing down

[Rwby Tuesday @TuesdayRwby]

@mariellaf1 because people taking exception to ideologies were pretending to care about academic fraud and using him as a an easy target

Observing, I find it depressing watching people relentlessly and viscerally demonising people for relentlessly and viscerally demonising people. The glee ever palpable.
Teaching by example is a diminishing virtue.
Signal that one, by all means.

@Jenny_1884 because public sector workers get paid a fraction of those with similar roles in the private sector, but generally this is offset by job security and public sector pensions, its a gamble that you will live that long to see it pay off in the end

[Rwby Tuesday @TuesdayRwby]

@AllisonPearson dont you think it would also be nice if ordinary people could afford a haircut?

[Rwby Tuesday @TuesdayRwby]

@Lord_Talbot64 @JohnHealey_MP dont be silly, you can cook a jacket potato

[Rwby Tuesday @TuesdayRwby]

@JohnHealey_MP this will just about cook a jacket potato

[Rwby Tuesday @TuesdayRwby]

@NoTwoTier @andyburnham @UKLabour for families who already cant afford to put the oven on, this does not even cook a dinner a week, they have simply no idea of the scale of the problem

@sleafordmods @TRobinsonNewEra say what you really think

[Aaron Bastani @AaronBastani]

When you realise…Anthony Gordon completely changed the game.

@RobertLeVeneur Absolutely, and when it comes across an answer you have already surfaced through logic and careful iterations, says you have arrived at the correct answer either by accident, or instinct. Rude.
