What do people with a 3-day weekend... do? 🤔 Research shows they spend time with family and friends, engage in hobbies, exercise and support local communities. Shorter work weeks build stronger societies. It’s time for a 4-day week. ⏰

Scotland instigated a 4-day week and immediately won their first World Cup game since 1990. Coincidence? 🤔 We think not.

We love reading the comments on the Crowdfunder. 😍 So many good reasons to back the campaign for a 4-day week! Make your donation here: www.crowdfunder.co.uk/p/the-weeken...

"Broken families everywhere due to many different reasons, one of these is exhaustion and depression. I'm 68 years old this year, as a teenager I believed moderately would bring us all the 4 day week.
Happy well rested people make loyal workers. We Need Change Now!"

"Having just listened to a podcast about how the "grind culture" takes away our right to rest this request felt very timely. I support reclaiming time to nap, dream and create which the 4-day week offers as a potential, if we can only get off continual scrolling on Social Media!"

We’ve had a century of skyrocketing productivity. So why do we still have the 5-day week? This is 2026, not 1926. It’s time for change.

The picture shows a digital watch with the number 5 just disappearing and the number 4 about to take its place. There are two phrases in the image also: 100 YEARS OF THE
5-DAY WEEK. TIME FOR CHANGE.

In the UK we work too many hours and get too little out of it. It’s time to put the focus on working smarter, not longer. It’s time for a 4-day week. ⏰

Instead of evidence-based policy, we get ignorance-based policy. Deeply disappointing. We hope Councils follow South Cambs example and ignore Reed’s heavy-handed (but ultimately impotent) rhetoric.

Reminder that "Death of the Artist" is about how YOUR interpretation of a work may differ from the creator and your perspective is valid. It does NOT mean "Well, they might benefit, but it's a guilty pleasure, and I'll still fund terrible things by giving the creator money."

I only did pizza for nine years, but after that (relatively) short time I got so used to the feel of dough that I could judge temperatures within two degrees by hand, nail weights without a scale, and get a full pie from phone to oven in twenty seconds. All labor is skilled labor.

I agreed under one condition - that they also add jaffa cakes as a consumable food item that can be crafted in the game.

Seen this going around but I’m Reposting it with the full alt text bc everyone deserves to read this glorious reply from Boy George

A Twitter reply from Boy George to JKR. JKR said something predictably terfy.

Boy George’s reply:

This is your obsession and it's pretty relentless and for no reason. You don't get to decided who or what anyone is except when you write. In the real world people can and always will be what they want to be. You can't stop it but you can continue to make young kids lives more difficult. You are cruel JK, you have started to look cruel in pictures. All this obsession is wearing on your expression. The pictures of you mocking 'trans' people like Winston Churchill after the Supreme Court ruling. Your endless comments about how rich you are. It's depressing and tacky and proves you are desperate to mean something but sadly you are just being mean.
As my hilarious friend David Hoyle always says.
'Ladies & gentlemen and those of you still deciding. There are two type of people, nice people and c***s.
I do not expect any positive response and you will continue to be supported by women who see you as some kind of gender hero. Women are not better than men and men are not better than women. As a man, a biological one, rah, rah, I have no issue with a girl becoming a boy or the other way around. As a gay man who has worn make-up since 14 l had lived my entire life feeling awkward and afraid using male public toilets.
It's not easy being different and you are only making it harder. Why don't you buy a nice Scottish island or a farm and start a JK commune for traumatised Terfs. Or listen to your fellow Scott Sydney Banks and he will hopefully help you understand that this is all in your head.

Love and support for the trans community in the UK today, the supreme court decision is a pitiful regressive step for the country, which will ultimately embolden bigots - transphobia is a curse on our society and the UK's weird obsession with it is driving us all into the dirt.

UK Folks. If you're concerned about the catastrophic impact of generative AI on the creative industries & the theft of artists/writers creations, then you REALLY NEED to complete the below online consultation form. This is your chance to say 'fuck off, this is not okay' www.gov.uk/government/c...

gov.uk

This consultation seeks views on how the government can ensure the UK’s legal framework for AI and copyright supports the UK creative industries and AI sector together.
