I liked the entirety of ER but rewatching it and realising I never once liked John Carter was a surprise

Oh, he's very much both. Don't waste your time reading anything he's written, he picks his facts alright, then misapplies them. With no benefit of the plummy accent to paper over the mess. But I did enjoy this clip!! 😄

Yes, when lost (phone or person), very useful, potentially life-saving. To surveil? Not so much! 😱

I thought cinnamon is toxic for cats to ingest, like eucalyptus, not sure about in candle form though? Love to Poppy 😻 🐾

Why are corps spending millions? Because the profit earned from us, buying things we don't need, makes it worth it... for them! Eat real food where you can, folks.

@katebevan.com Kate, help! I can't find that wonderful post about the cats being denied catering during a meeting, do you have it? 😻

This can't be true or the cats on your bed are malfunctioning: they are explicitly designed to manoeuvre you to the very edge 🐾😻

Or, I should say, some people don't have sides. But if they do, they can't just get over it. Obviously 😁

Ps Dave is insane to think people don't have sides 😵

None of which privatised water would be - or have been - capable of doing without effective regulation. Infuriating.

Atrocious lack of editorial standards at the weekend, not for the first time - even worse due to holidays??

This afternoon one side of the bus was sunny, the other shaded. Two women had shoved their large bags into the floor space of the only remaining seats in the shade. With a 1.5hr journey west ahead: "Do these bags contain ice cream or can they go in the sun while I sit in the shade, please?"

Being reported he's offered to cover the costs of the by election - easy to offer, knowing full well it's out of the question for a candidate fund an election 🙄🙄🙄

Is there a scenario where he won't be allowed to stand, fit and proper person type thing, which he can rail against, woe is me, establishment bs, etc?

He revels in the drama, fulfilling the requirements of his role. Think it's more likely, and much sadder, that he can see straight through the dangerous, grifting charlatan but does it anyway

Every summer I repost this article on how to spot drowning. Please read it and pass on. In the last few years I’ve had SIX messages from people who saved a kid’s life after clicking on the link from my feed. slate.com/technology/2...

Drowning Doesn’t Look Like Drowning
Drowning is not the violent, splashing call for help that most people expect.

the two times i almost drowned, i couldn’t call for help and didn’t flail around like on tv — an important read Drowning is almost always a deceptively quiet event. The waving, splashing, and yelling that dramatic conditioning (television) prepares us to look for is rarely seen in real life.
