The math is a bit wonky in the middle segment, but a very important point, that when existing and maintaining your life takes energy, you CANNOT spend ALL that energy on work and expect to survive. That the amount ANY person is able to do needs to cover life in a work/life balance (and fun too!)

The Guardian view on Labour’s welfare plans: betraying the vulnerable | Editorial

Seems like a solid plan... seems like a good idea to invest in research into the vast amount of problems we have at the moment even if there wasn't a sudden availability of skilled candidates to tempt across the Atlantic.

Five years in prison for nonviolent protest: it’s plain wrong, and Keir Starmer knows it | Caroline Lucas

Wishing my friends celebrating around the world a very happy lunar new year - I hope the year of the snake is a happy and prosperous one for you all #LunarNewYear2025

I’m not saying “we should stuff banned books into all the front yard community library boxes” - but I’m also not saying “we shouldn’t” 👀

On Holocaust Memorial Day we remember those murdered during the Holocaust and all genocides.

Personally if there was a discussion on whether I'd just performed a Nazi salute I'd probably avoid saying that it's a bad thing that academics were writing about antisemitism in the 1940s.

How much will this cost the treasury? Shame on this govt for taking away pensioners' winter fuel payments while giving tax breaks to millionaires and billionaires - totally skewed priorities www.thetimes.com/business-mon...

The next Summer Olympics will be held in Los Angeles, California in 2028 (Trump is excited about this). Perhaps those in the international stage will boycott the American Olympics for its human rights atrocities if things continue on the path they’re going. . . #Olympics2028Boycott

Following the WESC session on the puberty blocker evidence Base. Good to see actual experts answering questions, all medically factual and accurate (to my kniwledge) so far. Giordano has had a poke at failings of Cass as well. 1/2

Hey there cats and cat-wannabes... where is it at, and what is it?

Lawmakers buying Meta stock then banning TikTok is a conflict of interest. When we do it it’s “insider trading” and we go to prison When lawmakers do it they get paid.

Rep. Crockett is a true gem and ally.

The data is coming from inside the post... Unfortunately too often the case that when non-men and/or non-neurotypicals express themselves SOMEONE has to try and invalidate them. Most men are lovely but dammit there's always THAT GUY. The devil doesn't need more advocates, he has a legal team.

Feeding the bees! Glad they're still in there (as it has been cold and they weren't coming out and it was a bad idea to go letting drafts in checking on them too often). Hopefully next year I won't need to, as now I have them home I am going to be more restrained on my honey harvesting. #beekeeping

a friend texted me this and I felt I should share it

Just felt like sharing a few of my favourite phrases: Anything worth doing is worth doing badly. (It is worth doing even if you CAN'T do it well.) Yes, my ADHD is "all in my head" that's where I keep my brain, just like my anaemia is all in my blood... It's not a joke if you are punching down.

"It matters. There's a reason we have elections." Green councillor Rachel Millward on the councils wanting to postpone their elections amid local government reorganisation.

Generally annoyed by the tendency of people to throw around "logical fallacy" and "bias" when they don't actually understand either of those terms... I know I should not feed the trolls, but part of me wants to believe people can be better and learn if you explain things clearly enough... *sighs*
