Happy Sussex Day! Sussex Day has become a popular way for residents to celebrate its rich heritage and everything that is good about the county. The date was chosen because it is St Richard's Day, which marks the life of St Richard, Bishop of Chichester from 1245 until his death in 1253.

Well I've learned something new today- upside down ok sign is a white power thing. Ugh.

Don't like avocado on its own, don't mind it as guacamole. I hate sprouts and baked beans 🤢

I don't want a social media 'ban' for kids that they will get around in two mins. I want a govt that uses their time & money for proper, science-backed policies, that calls out racist behaviour for what it is, that doesn't arrest peaceful protesters & that acknowledges what is going on in the world!

In 1908 the Lancet called for an 18+ age limit on reading in bed for U.K. children.

This. And it's same but different for kids living in a 'safe rural idyll'. Friends are miles away, there's f-all to do (until you find they discovered wild swimming way before you did without any of the safety measures) and no public transport if there was & it was affordable. Bloody ridiculous.

Being an academic in the UK is to be told that your research having a real-world impact is hugely important... only for you to wake up every day with the government announcing a new stupid policy clearly devoid of any fact-based evidence or underpinning research to justify it.

Same, we went to the pub or went round the shops. Mostly the pub, of an evening.

Also conversations about social media bans need to consider what we want young people to do instead. What will they do? Because concerts cost £££. No youth clubs. No libraries. We used to entertain ourself hanging out on the High Street. There is fuck all for young ppl on High Streets now

As I’ve said for a while, this plan doesn’t ’rein in’ the tech giants, it gives them more information and more power over us.

Breaking: Under 16s impose social media ban on Government. It’s too much to expect ministers to be able to cope with the extremism and disinformation they encounter on X and Facebook. At their age they’re too easily convinced that immigrants are dangerous and of the need to bring back “real bins”.

Hundreds of thousands of disabled people with lifelong conditions are being put through “pointless” benefit reassessments, contrary to official guidance. My exclusive in today’s paper: www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

I don't understand why they're banning rather than insisting social media changes (from damaging algorithms, content, addictive features etc) Well I do understand, it's money as ever

I'm not sure the UK government is in any position to moralise about the dangers of the internet while continuing to treat X as an official communications platform.

I know it’s practically blasphemy to say so, but society should not require everyone to work. Some people can’t. Some people shouldn’t. Some people contribute more by *not* working than they would by working. Work isn’t that important.

Pittas are helpful too, I keep in them in the freezer, toast them and chuck cooked meets, cheese, salad in them

Excellent! All nutritionally dense, need little to no prep and are quite 'moreish'

Fruit that needs very little prep- blueberries, raspberries, strawberries. Salad bags. Little baby plum tomatoes, sugar snaps. Cheese slices (rather than a block you have to cut), you can also get individually wrapped mini blocks. Yogurt tubes. Cooked chicken pieces. Humus, bread sticks

Remember this fact, the poorest 20% pay a higher percentage of tax than the richest 20%. In almost every country. The system is rigged and it is time to take back control and unrig it.

This “we used to just politely disagree with each other” bullshit seems to ignore most of the history of lgbtq+, women’s rights, civil rights, blah blah blah

Also wetlands, bogs and moss which lock away more carbon per square metre than trees by far. Basically preserve environments and eco diversity! We must build and work collaboratively with the rest of life on this planet, not competitively any more.

My kingdom for a UK leader who will say "immigrants are a key part of our communities, they are our neighbours, friends, colleagues, partners. We will not tolerate racist and fascist violence against them" and who is willing to walk the walk of defending us. Without "legitimate concerns"-ing it.

I'm reading Between the Chalk and the Sea at the moment, by Gail Simmons which is about the rediscovered pilgrim path along the south coast. I'd say it was peaceful and reflective rather than definitely cheery, but I am very much enjoying it!
