They’re moving toward US healthcare - ie ‘free’ won’t cover what you need. Paying WILL be necessary. What’s the cost of US care? Inhaler: £300 Ambulance: £2,500 Baby: £10,000-30,000 2 week hospital stay: £1,000,000 Protect our kids future = protect a fully public NHS No to privatisation!

I didn’t know where to start with the schema for LittleSteps AI Then I found the real starting point: the system’s surfaces. UI, auth, provider behaviour reveal the rules → the schema flows from that: Surfaces → Rules → Schema #softwareengineering #schema dileeparanawake.com/surface-firs...

Mind blowing. $4tn = $495 for each person on a planet of 8.1Bn people. While people starve. Insane. Our country is divided. People hate because they can’t afford to feed their kids, or heat homes. Fix hate by fixing the problem - falling living standards & wealth inequality. #TaxWealthNotWork

Disgraceful racist attack on @mothinali.bsky.social I wonder how many people would be out hating if they had secure jobs, access to good schools, secure housing and things felt like they were on the up? My guess is a lot less. If we fix the cause - falling living standards - we fix the hate.

Work should pay enough to eat. “Uber for nurses” - they pay nurses with more debt less, for the same work, because they’re more desperate. Unchecked, extreme wealth turns markets into monopolies. Stand against greed, and stand for people. youtu.be/Ntf6wXx2Phs?... #TaxWealthNotWork

So fed up of being told “it’s not that you’re autistic - you just need to talk about normal stuff, in a normal way” So the issue is I speak like an autistic person, but the issue is definitely not my autism? 🤦‍♂️ I’m calling BS on this.

A Green Party graphic with a green textured background features the headline from The Independent: “Can Zack Polanski turn the Green Party poll surge into votes?” followed by the subheading, “Enjoying their highest opinion poll ratings for decades, the Greens are well placed to capitalise on Labour’s current woes, writes Sean O’Grady.” Above the headline, a large speech bubble says “YES!” next to an image of Zack Polanski smiling. The top text reads “Bradford District Green Party,” and at the bottom is a green banner with the link Join.greenparty.org.uk and the Green Party logo.
