How much do you think it costs to make a pair of Nike shoes in Asia? Before you open this thread, take a guess. Settle on a number and then compare it to what you'll learn in this thread. 🧵

Finally! The landlords of these shops know exactly what the people renting their shops are doing. The rent for a small shop in a crappy part of town where I live is about £800/month - only criminals can afford this. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

I know I post a lot of Cornish sunsets, and I hope it isn’t boring. I do it in the hope it offers people a moment of calm. I took this a few summers ago in Carbis Bay. Pause for a moment and drift away on the warm breeze. May it soothe you from any anxiety. Rest well, my friends. 😊 #nature #peace

Far from ableist, cities that work for cycling also work for a variety of mobility devices. But the devil’s in the details: mountable curbs, plentiful curb cuts, smooth asphalt, lane width (minimum 2.3m/7.5ft per direction), visual cues, and gentle gradient (less than 2-4%) for bridges and tunnels.

Am currently unable to talk as my speech valve was removed last week due to infection and it's probably going to be a few weeks until I can get a new one put in. It's giving me quite an insight into what 'full-time' disabled people face when navigating the world, and it's not a positive one.

Senator Chris Murphy took to the Senate floor on Friday to break down the corruption flowing from the WH. He connects the dots, and makes a clear argument regarding who what where and why Shitler and Muskrat are destroying our govt!! This needs to be shared far and wide!! youtu.be/hycoCYenXls

I’ve started watching Zero Day on Netflix, so far it’s top notch. De Nero is brilliant and the writing is sharp. So far so great!
