It's a case of "I'm bigger than you" so yes, it's a clear cut case of bullying. Lambie is correct, @albomp.bsky.social has walked back a promise of being more transparent, he has it on record as leading the most secretive Government in the history of our Federation.

The big money captures every leadership team in the end. Both tacitly but also sometimes explicitly including via espionage eg selling forest carbon and biodiversity offset schemes to ENGO CEOs to ensure they don't oppose the fossil carbon projects that fund the schemes.

Marcos Agustín @marcosagusstinn 🇺🇸🇺🇦 Everything they are saying is a lie. The energy price surge has nothing to do with #Ukraine. 🔸 Oil prices have risen 45% since the #Iran conflict began. 🔸 #Kyiv has been attacking #Russian refineries since 2024.

Preznit diaper-stain says he should have won eight Nobel Peace Prizes for stopping eight wars. including the Israel Iran war and the Egypt Ethiopia war (which incidentally never was). Really? All I have seen is him wage war. Who's next? Ukraine? He wants Zelenskyy removed. What a Fucking Moron -

So many times here I'm 3/4 through posting something then worry about if it's in context, who might be offended etc, so I just erase it, move on in silence, I wonder if we're not angry enuf at what's happening, if we've become too polite to protest,, I know, rambling again,,

#badpoetry
Cecil Day Lewis talking about poetry; A MAN is a poet. Poetry doesn't sell. A poet must eat. So what does a poet do? Today the answer to that question is simple. The path is already trodden. A poet becomes a reviewer, he lectures, he writes pamphlets for the British Council or scripts for the BBC. And then, throwing aside for the last time his masochistically thumbed copy of Mr. Connolly's Enemies of Promise, he settles down to write a science fiction novel.

The number of biscuit joints to use in a two-meter joint typically depends on the thickness of the wood and the specific application, but a common practice is to use one biscuit every 30 to 40 centimeters. For a two-meter joint, this would generally mean using about five to seven biscuits. #woodwork

Shimenawa' are lengths of laid rice straw rope used for ritual purification in the Shinto religion. Japan.
A vertical, black-and-white documentary photograph captures a detailed, close-up view of a shimenawa—the sacred rice-straw rope used for ritual purification and to mark sacred boundaries in Japan's Shinto religion. The composition focuses intensely on the remarkable technical craftsmanship and rich organic textures of the ritual object, framed tightly against the wooden architectural elements of a shrine building.

The centerpiece of the image is an immensely thick, tightly coiled bundle of harvested rice straw that runs horizontally across the mid-ground. The parallel lines of individual straw fibers create a dense, brushed texture that is beautifully accentuated by the monochrome tones. This massive central rope is securely bound and suspended from a horizontal wooden beam by two smaller, tightly braided straw ropes wrapped vertically around it.

Hanging directly from the underside of the main twist is a large, flared straw tassel (shime-no-ko), meticulously trimmed into a neat, bell-like shape. Flanking this central tassel are two pristine white paper streamers (shide), zigzag-folded in traditional ritual fashion. These bright white accents pop dramatically against the deeply shadowed, dark background of the shrine's interior, embodying the core Shinto concepts of purity, cleanliness, and sacred spaces.
