If there’s one thing I’ve learned, it’s to be the fourth or fifth person to ask someone how their holiday was. 🏝️😉

Last night I dreamed I had to be somewhere at 9.30am - I was on trains and buses but didn’t know where I needed to be. Hoping tonight I might find out.

In defiance of international rules, our used tyres are exported to India, to be pyrolysed at vast cost to workers' health & air quality. The government sits on its hands. At @fightingdirty.bsky.social, we want to mount a crowdfunded challenge. Could you help? 🧵 stop-uk-tyre-exports.raiselysite.com

A gobsmacking story. Water companies let toxic waste disposers, for cash, dump their loads into sewage farms. The sewage sludge is then spread, untested, on farmland, potentially poisoning vast areas, entire ecosystems and the people (you and me) eating the food. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

What’s in the millions of tonnes of sludge sprayed on to farmland? The answer won’t make you happy | George Monbiot
Thanks to breathtaking negligence, the liquid fertiliser used to help grow our food bubbles with a lethal cocktail of toxins, says Guardian columnist George Monbiot

Looking back on your life, what have been your "necessary losses"? Here is a superb and clarifying read on the life-shaping art of letting go:

Someone I don’t know just paid for my tea in a cafe I almost didn’t go into because I’m not earning much at the moment. I needed a change of scene to get some work done. How kind. How timely. Maybe kindness is always timely. ❤️

“The greatest hazard of all, losing the self, can occur very quietly in the world, as if it were nothing at all. No other loss can occur so quietly; any other loss — an arm, a leg, five dollars, a wife, etc — is sure to be noticed.” ~ Søren Kierkegaard

The weirdest paradox is that after you hit 35, you pretty much feel like you’re both 20 and 60 years old at the same time forever. Like it’s just a lifetime of thinking “but what do I REALLY wanna do with my life” while you fire up the blood pressure machine that lives on the kitchen counter now
