Tomorrow evening it’ll be my annual duty to vaguely shepherd the activity on the #duvetknowitschristmas hashtag and urge people to give small sums to charity. 7.30pm? Something like that?

After years of complaining about cancel culture, the current administration has taken it to a new and dangerous level by routinely threatening regulatory action against media companies unless they muzzle or fire reporters and commentators it doesn’t like.

In Germany, scientists have made a breakthrough in treating Parkinson’s by implanting a chip in the brain that sends precise signals to restore movement. A stunning leap in neuroscience—witness the power of innovation and the beauty of science in action. Powerfull content

It is very nearly the tenth anniversary of that brief moment when, for 2 or 3 days, British newspapers remembered refugees are desperate human beings who need our help, rather than scum that it's okay to threaten with violence.

Fans should not be paying the price for the historic bad decisions of ownership/management and the Glazers' debt interest. We have always supported lawful protest for fans who are prepared to get off their backsides and walk the walk and we believe that's most effective when we talk the talk too.

this Times headline is very misleading as the following pars - in the same article - explains more fair to say “a handful of packed state schools have no room for private pupils says 2022/23 data”
Packed state schools have no room for private pupilsOfficial government estimates suggest that the moves will lead to a drop-off in private school pupil numbers of 37,000. Given the increase in fees, 35,000 are expected to seek a space in the state sector instead.
Ministers have stressed that nationally there is enough capacity to absorb any transfer in pupils, and that thousands of children every year move between the state and private system.
Nationally, there are 578,000 unfilled places in primary schools and 465,000 unfilled places in secondary schools.
Some 83 per cent of primary schools and 77 per cent of secondaries have at least one spare space.
However, figures released

I can’t think of a better way to honor Jimmy Carter than donating to Habitat for Humanity. He and Rosalynn first began volunteering with the nonprofit in 1984 — 3 years after leaving the White House. They volunteered every year until 2020, eventually helping to build and repair 4,390 Habitat homes.

A late #duvetknowitschristmas entry, due to going down with #theflu overnight and having to make a sharp exit from the matrimonial bed and our family Christmas. I think this hits most of the requirements - see the alt text. And I've donated to @rhodri.biz's excellent cause
#duvetknowitschristmas entry, including: a clothes rail; hats at a jaunty angle; a step ladder; an unused fitness machine; a washing rail, an offcut of the hall carpet; a long forgotten dressing gown; a guitar; pictures that used to have pride of place on a wall somewhere; Jos sticks; a small wicker bowl; some boxes; a defunct printer; the corner of a self portrait of the previous occupant; some feet; and a duvet

Airbed in my 10 year old nephews room. #DuvetKnowItsChristmas
Airbed next to a black bunkbed. The top of the bunkbed is covered in boxes and assorted belongings of a 10 year old boy. The rear wall has a red chest of drawers covered in piles of books, mainly graphic novels. A giant cartoon character beanbag is next to the chest of drawers.

Waking up to Christmas morning at my parents. In the "storage room" while the roof insulation is redone. And a wee donation to @centrepointuk.bsky.social #duvetknowitschristmas
The edge of a white duvet and dusky blue waffle bedcover fill the bottom half of the picture. The rest is a large pile of filled really useful boxes, old pillows and wool blankets and suit covers. To the left there is a large cardboard box covered in fragile tape which is acting as a bedside table with a pair of glasses on.
