Last Notes npub1pz03fppy7ktex5q0hzqqrfqvwjdvw5muhg8emha8thnluwklpa0qpmfcuq Aloniaxx I looked at their website before it was taken down, and yes, it was disturbing, with gleeful reports of direct actions already taken on airbases and info on "training camps" for other actions, for which you had to sign up and maybe pay a fee I don't know I didn't look that far into it and 2hrs later it was gone anyway. npub1pz03fppy7ktex5q0hzqqrfqvwjdvw5muhg8emha8thnluwklpa0qpmfcuq Aloniaxx Landlords put rents up sometimes. Labour has already dealt with some aspects for renters. Her actions are entirely within the rules. My comment about her ethnicity was my comment...media are choosing to target women and people from different ethnicities, as they do. npub1pz03fppy7ktex5q0hzqqrfqvwjdvw5muhg8emha8thnluwklpa0qpmfcuq Aloniaxx Minister rents out a house on a fixed term deal npub1pz03fppy7ktex5q0hzqqrfqvwjdvw5muhg8emha8thnluwklpa0qpmfcuq Aloniaxx Do female archaeologists spot patterns differently to male? npub1pz03fppy7ktex5q0hzqqrfqvwjdvw5muhg8emha8thnluwklpa0qpmfcuq Aloniaxx Good article, except they just couldn't help themselves by adding this; "Reports have suggested that several senior ministers are in Downing Street’s crosshairs for what would be Keir Starmer’s first reshuffle as prime minister. Some expected Starmer to make ministerial changes before the summer recess, but he decided not to and allies say he does not intend to in the autumn either.", thus doing exactly what Rayner is referring to, without a shred of irony on the Guardian's part. npub1pz03fppy7ktex5q0hzqqrfqvwjdvw5muhg8emha8thnluwklpa0qpmfcuq Aloniaxx 'Management' has been the fastest growing sector in the NHS this past 25yrs or so. npub1pz03fppy7ktex5q0hzqqrfqvwjdvw5muhg8emha8thnluwklpa0qpmfcuq Aloniaxx How does NHS find a way forwards? Talk to the midwives on the front line, get them to come up with the outline of a viable and feasible plan instead of having one imposed on them again. npub1pz03fppy7ktex5q0hzqqrfqvwjdvw5muhg8emha8thnluwklpa0qpmfcuq Aloniaxx I'd add that all they have to do is shut their wallets and stop buying anything but essentials. npub1pz03fppy7ktex5q0hzqqrfqvwjdvw5muhg8emha8thnluwklpa0qpmfcuq Aloniaxx Persistently voting against the gov whom you are part of over a period of time, and posting it in the press and social media = time for action to maintain party discipline. It wasn't just one event for them, it was an accumulation of events. It's sad for them they couldn't see how this would eventually affect them. Working WITH gov would surely have been better? npub1pz03fppy7ktex5q0hzqqrfqvwjdvw5muhg8emha8thnluwklpa0qpmfcuq Aloniaxx How? How would that be achieved in reality? npub1pz03fppy7ktex5q0hzqqrfqvwjdvw5muhg8emha8thnluwklpa0qpmfcuq Aloniaxx Interfering with/damaging equipment needed for defence of UK, incl for training Ukraine pilots, is an attack on UK security. I looked at Palestine Action website before it was taken down and they were running "training camps" for such "actions". That isn't supporting Palestine, it's attacking UK. npub1pz03fppy7ktex5q0hzqqrfqvwjdvw5muhg8emha8thnluwklpa0qpmfcuq Aloniaxx Lifting the 2 child benefit cap won't cure mouldy rooms and rats. Councils should have power to impose 8wk rule on landlords to resolve all such problems, or face compulsory purchase. Some action re no-fault evictions and significant restrictions on right-to-buy has happened, but there's room for a lot more. npub1pz03fppy7ktex5q0hzqqrfqvwjdvw5muhg8emha8thnluwklpa0qpmfcuq Aloniaxx "Young people said they had experienced not having enough water to shower, rats biting through their walls, and mouldy bedrooms, among a number of examples in a report on the “crisis of hardship” gripping the country." Not a single mention of the fact that it's landlordism that causes/creates unhealthy "Dickensian" living conditions. npub1pz03fppy7ktex5q0hzqqrfqvwjdvw5muhg8emha8thnluwklpa0qpmfcuq Aloniaxx Sorry, my comment wasn't aimed at you speciically, but more generally. npub1pz03fppy7ktex5q0hzqqrfqvwjdvw5muhg8emha8thnluwklpa0qpmfcuq Aloniaxx It's a pity they're so busy on dozens of fronts that single issues get lost and people are all too willing to believe "nothing's being done". I have 12 or so lists of all that Labour's done in 12mths, plus upcoming plans, but strangely, no-one's talking about them are they? npub1pz03fppy7ktex5q0hzqqrfqvwjdvw5muhg8emha8thnluwklpa0qpmfcuq Aloniaxx More speculation masquerading as "news". npub1pz03fppy7ktex5q0hzqqrfqvwjdvw5muhg8emha8thnluwklpa0qpmfcuq Aloniaxx But those who DO qualify will never have to face a re-assessment....I'm pretty sure that's also been glossed over. npub1pz03fppy7ktex5q0hzqqrfqvwjdvw5muhg8emha8thnluwklpa0qpmfcuq Aloniaxx WOW....that truly is a deeply offensive image for muslims. What prompted you to use it? npub1pz03fppy7ktex5q0hzqqrfqvwjdvw5muhg8emha8thnluwklpa0qpmfcuq Aloniaxx I suppose if stats were available for what young people choose to listen to as opposed to what's pushed on them it'd be clearer whether they actively prefer older music or not. I saw some vids once of young people hearing 'old' music for the first time and their astonishment was real and very funny. npub1pz03fppy7ktex5q0hzqqrfqvwjdvw5muhg8emha8thnluwklpa0qpmfcuq Aloniaxx Nothing beats Private Eye for nailing it on the head. npub1pz03fppy7ktex5q0hzqqrfqvwjdvw5muhg8emha8thnluwklpa0qpmfcuq Aloniaxx Derbyshire County Council, now ReFUK, has just closed all adult education centres in the county...and other councils now also under ReFUK are failing hugely...I think it's naïve to assume the population will fold so easily into their arms, especially give the major clusterfuck of the US showing a taste of what may come under ReFUK. npub1pz03fppy7ktex5q0hzqqrfqvwjdvw5muhg8emha8thnluwklpa0qpmfcuq Aloniaxx Fiona Hill, in a recent Guardian article, says that the UK is a target of Russia and has been for a while. UK is on the outskirts of Europe and not fully integrated. UK is highly vulnerable and already under attack on multiple fronts. I'm sure some of that defence spend will be on cyber security, the new and most dangerous frontier of warfare. npub1pz03fppy7ktex5q0hzqqrfqvwjdvw5muhg8emha8thnluwklpa0qpmfcuq Aloniaxx Ordinary people need to have it pointed out to them very simply and clearly as to how it'll directly affect their daily lives, their private lives, their financials, their freedom to travel, to have children and to work. That's what's missing. npub1pz03fppy7ktex5q0hzqqrfqvwjdvw5muhg8emha8thnluwklpa0qpmfcuq Aloniaxx For 14yrs Tories failed to adequately deal with immigration. It was they who created "hostile environment" Theresa May, followed by Patel and Braverman. They utterly failed to facilitate dealing with asylum claims promptly, deliberately causing a massive toxic backlog that ReFUK has capitalised on. npub1pz03fppy7ktex5q0hzqqrfqvwjdvw5muhg8emha8thnluwklpa0qpmfcuq Aloniaxx “Care companies should be recruiting from those workers. (the pool of those not working due to exploitation in previous jobs)They can also extend existing visas. They could recruit as well from people who are on other visas, who are already here. But we do think it’s time to end that care worker recruitment from abroad,” Cooper said. One minute people are wailing we're "poaching" staff from abroad, the next they're wailing we need them. npub1pz03fppy7ktex5q0hzqqrfqvwjdvw5muhg8emha8thnluwklpa0qpmfcuq Aloniaxx Some online education is worthwhile, it's been a feature of remote learning for decades, for example in the OU and rural Australia. Face to face visits tend to be most beneficial for the elderly, a large percentage of the NHS patients and GP appointments. npub1pz03fppy7ktex5q0hzqqrfqvwjdvw5muhg8emha8thnluwklpa0qpmfcuq Aloniaxx Possibly...I didn't save the article, but having done some visits during my training both in medical and psych fields, I know first-hand the benefits of a face to face home visit. It's always been the "cinderella" part of health care, prevention has been on the back burner for too long. npub1pz03fppy7ktex5q0hzqqrfqvwjdvw5muhg8emha8thnluwklpa0qpmfcuq Aloniaxx Apparently some of the community preventive work is going to be done face to face by specially trained supporters, and some trials have shown it to be effective as home visits are appreciated and preventions can happen in a timely manner. I think it may even have been the Guardian who published the story a few wks ago. npub1pz03fppy7ktex5q0hzqqrfqvwjdvw5muhg8emha8thnluwklpa0qpmfcuq Aloniaxx “Never have we so hurt and mistreated our common home as we have in the last two hundred years. Reducing greenhouse gases requires honesty, courage and responsibility. Those who will have to suffer the consequences will not forget this failure of conscience and responsibility.” — Pope Francis. Very sad to read of his death this morning. He spoke out about lots of things other Popes never had. npub1pz03fppy7ktex5q0hzqqrfqvwjdvw5muhg8emha8thnluwklpa0qpmfcuq Aloniaxx Those 'blocs' will have been jockeying for position since Nov 5th last yr, ie planning for the worst, hoping for the best. They'll all have longterm strategists and eventually there'll be a new equilibrium that more or less everyone is happy with (US excepted). npub1pz03fppy7ktex5q0hzqqrfqvwjdvw5muhg8emha8thnluwklpa0qpmfcuq Aloniaxx Various types of cloud today with some sun peeking through. Unsure if we'll get rain. Have 2 lists, one for outdoors and one for indoors, two letters to write, one with a proper pen on proper paper, the other an email. Bread machine's on doing it's thing. npub1pz03fppy7ktex5q0hzqqrfqvwjdvw5muhg8emha8thnluwklpa0qpmfcuq Aloniaxx Weather's set to start changing this weekend in UK though it looks like the Midlands won't get much rain. Been watering a lot, but it's rain which brings the slugs out. Was going to start packing winter clothes away, but temps set to drop a bit too, so will leave some out. Have to decide when to sow English runner beans too. Little jobs piling up. Got a bit sunburnt yesterday though mowing and patio clearing for my neighbour. npub1pz03fppy7ktex5q0hzqqrfqvwjdvw5muhg8emha8thnluwklpa0qpmfcuq Aloniaxx Integrity is often such a fragile thing when confronted with huge piles of money, offers of huge increases in power, or threats of retaliation. npub1pz03fppy7ktex5q0hzqqrfqvwjdvw5muhg8emha8thnluwklpa0qpmfcuq Aloniaxx Not sure of the meaning of that term. npub1pz03fppy7ktex5q0hzqqrfqvwjdvw5muhg8emha8thnluwklpa0qpmfcuq Aloniaxx Our observations in the staff room was that many male nurses only did nursing in order to climb the greasy pole into the better paid roles. npub1pz03fppy7ktex5q0hzqqrfqvwjdvw5muhg8emha8thnluwklpa0qpmfcuq Aloniaxx During my nursing career a much larger percentage of male nurses were promoted up out of direct nursing into the teaching/management roles than were the female nurses. Besides which, many female patients still don't want a male doing their personal care. npub1pz03fppy7ktex5q0hzqqrfqvwjdvw5muhg8emha8thnluwklpa0qpmfcuq Aloniaxx Peeling it right back I'd ask if anyone had interviewed the children as to why school was a problem for them. I suspect it may be because of decades of gov diktats on what must be taught and how, which naturally would exclude certain kinds of children who have difficulty fitting into that mould. Also, a lack of staff who would be able to offer an alternative way of learning for such children. npub1pz03fppy7ktex5q0hzqqrfqvwjdvw5muhg8emha8thnluwklpa0qpmfcuq Aloniaxx That's twice in 2 days I've been attacked instantly for posting either a simple comment or a factual post. It's become quite unpleasant on here unless I'm posting beige stuff about the weather or plants. npub1pz03fppy7ktex5q0hzqqrfqvwjdvw5muhg8emha8thnluwklpa0qpmfcuq Aloniaxx I would guess that the percentage of women in all 3 of those groups is very high...this means taking the physical safety risk of public transport outside of daylight hours. The only way around this would be for women travelling at the same time to self-organise into groups. A time-consuming thing given the long hours already worked and responsibilities outside of work. npub1pz03fppy7ktex5q0hzqqrfqvwjdvw5muhg8emha8thnluwklpa0qpmfcuq Aloniaxx I'll never forget those brave brave men going up onto the roof to clear away highly radioactive debris, day after day, at huge risk to their lives. They're probably all dead now. npub1pz03fppy7ktex5q0hzqqrfqvwjdvw5muhg8emha8thnluwklpa0qpmfcuq Aloniaxx Monty Don, an avid gardener and TV personality in the UK recently did a grand tour of lots of lovely gardens around the UK and visited Harrison's...it was virtually an untouched very neglected site when Harrison first bought it and he spent decades developing it into a bit of paradise on earth. Amazing. npub1pz03fppy7ktex5q0hzqqrfqvwjdvw5muhg8emha8thnluwklpa0qpmfcuq Aloniaxx America is lucky to have him, although generally they don't realise it. Apart from all those who attended that event. I hope he stays safe and away from 4th floor and higher windows.... npub1pz03fppy7ktex5q0hzqqrfqvwjdvw5muhg8emha8thnluwklpa0qpmfcuq Aloniaxx To become a Probation Officer you need a degree, then a further 14-21mths specific training depending on what degree you did, so it's not simply a matter of hiring more staff. npub1pz03fppy7ktex5q0hzqqrfqvwjdvw5muhg8emha8thnluwklpa0qpmfcuq Aloniaxx Reports that Sand Martins and Swallows have started arriving in the south of UK, so the Swifts won't be far behind. I really must find someone to go up the long ladder and install my Swift box under the roof overhang behind the gutter. We have a little squadron of about 12 who come back to our street every year. npub1pz03fppy7ktex5q0hzqqrfqvwjdvw5muhg8emha8thnluwklpa0qpmfcuq Aloniaxx But isn't it all just wild speculation and opinion? No-one will know the details until the actual budget. npub1pz03fppy7ktex5q0hzqqrfqvwjdvw5muhg8emha8thnluwklpa0qpmfcuq Aloniaxx It's fake dear. You can read an article dated 18th Jan 2025 by 'Politico' for more information. npub1pz03fppy7ktex5q0hzqqrfqvwjdvw5muhg8emha8thnluwklpa0qpmfcuq Aloniaxx You won't find anything, because it's fake news. It's already been debunked on bluesky by an actual person who is in the thick of it. npub1pz03fppy7ktex5q0hzqqrfqvwjdvw5muhg8emha8thnluwklpa0qpmfcuq Aloniaxx "could help stop arctic permafrost from melting"...errrrmmmm, and how exactly will they do that? npub1pz03fppy7ktex5q0hzqqrfqvwjdvw5muhg8emha8thnluwklpa0qpmfcuq Aloniaxx Yes, but the usage of 'liberal' isn't as clearcut as that is it? People bandy the word around until it loses any meaning. Especially the Americans. npub1pz03fppy7ktex5q0hzqqrfqvwjdvw5muhg8emha8thnluwklpa0qpmfcuq Aloniaxx I don't understand why in sentence 1 it's "liberal norms" and then further down it decries "liberal elites". I've never known if 'liberal' is an insult, a progressive, a free-thinker or a danger. npub1pz03fppy7ktex5q0hzqqrfqvwjdvw5muhg8emha8thnluwklpa0qpmfcuq Aloniaxx I can only suggest you go out and find a nice hedge near you and make notes or take photos of what plants, shrubs, trees there are in it and then try to start your own. If something grows well somewhere, then that place suits it. I used to garden in a fairly hot dry place with soil containing a lot of limestone and had to do that before buying/planting stuff for my clients. npub1pz03fppy7ktex5q0hzqqrfqvwjdvw5muhg8emha8thnluwklpa0qpmfcuq Aloniaxx And the excitement of watching the image appear in the developer tray as dad jiggled it back and forth. I'm sure it wasn't good for us to be breathing in all those chemicals... npub1pz03fppy7ktex5q0hzqqrfqvwjdvw5muhg8emha8thnluwklpa0qpmfcuq Aloniaxx My dad used to have a darkroom, and he taught me how to unload black and white film into the canister, mix the right chemicals, develop it and then do all the adjustments to make prints, do the mixes for developing, fixing and rinsing. I still have some of those photos upstairs in a box, but sadly don't have any he did himself. Mum threw them all away in a fit of anger. npub1pz03fppy7ktex5q0hzqqrfqvwjdvw5muhg8emha8thnluwklpa0qpmfcuq Aloniaxx I've taken photos from about age 8 on various cameras and I can count on my fingers the number that came out extraordinarily well, by chance and many that came out well, but without that 'special' element. npub1pz03fppy7ktex5q0hzqqrfqvwjdvw5muhg8emha8thnluwklpa0qpmfcuq Aloniaxx What a happy accident! npub1pz03fppy7ktex5q0hzqqrfqvwjdvw5muhg8emha8thnluwklpa0qpmfcuq Aloniaxx Hmm, yes, it needs a bit more thought. npub1pz03fppy7ktex5q0hzqqrfqvwjdvw5muhg8emha8thnluwklpa0qpmfcuq Aloniaxx Ooooh, close enough to relate to an onion? Speaking the phrase could blur the boundaries very well as it depends on the accent... npub1pz03fppy7ktex5q0hzqqrfqvwjdvw5muhg8emha8thnluwklpa0qpmfcuq Aloniaxx "Rotting onion"? Implying that the rot is on many many layers? npub1pz03fppy7ktex5q0hzqqrfqvwjdvw5muhg8emha8thnluwklpa0qpmfcuq Aloniaxx It's revealed just how few actual practical safeguards there are in place, and the weakness of believing in integrity, rules and oaths. npub1pz03fppy7ktex5q0hzqqrfqvwjdvw5muhg8emha8thnluwklpa0qpmfcuq Aloniaxx Very nice! A bit reminiscent of some of the photos in the book "Framed", l.a.Eyeworks. npub1pz03fppy7ktex5q0hzqqrfqvwjdvw5muhg8emha8thnluwklpa0qpmfcuq Aloniaxx Just how "innocent" is childhood though these days and what is the actual period of "innocence"? Personally I think it probably only lasts til about 8yrs old, or until they realise Santa isn't real. The first step into the world of lying adulthood with a smidge of understanding why. In our family there was always general talk about saving for something nice, or hols up to leaving Primary School and a bit more after. npub1pz03fppy7ktex5q0hzqqrfqvwjdvw5muhg8emha8thnluwklpa0qpmfcuq Aloniaxx It's hard even in the outside world sometimes to get people to listen to you and engage on a level playing field, but it's actually even harder here in some instances. I don't know what the solution is really. npub1pz03fppy7ktex5q0hzqqrfqvwjdvw5muhg8emha8thnluwklpa0qpmfcuq Aloniaxx Sadly though Roberto, although they're large public instances, they can set all the rules they want, both written and unwritten and that there is a key problem. npub1pz03fppy7ktex5q0hzqqrfqvwjdvw5muhg8emha8thnluwklpa0qpmfcuq Aloniaxx My sympathies. You're unlikely in my experience to get any feedback nor explanation. Sorry. npub1pz03fppy7ktex5q0hzqqrfqvwjdvw5muhg8emha8thnluwklpa0qpmfcuq Aloniaxx Good point, well made. npub1pz03fppy7ktex5q0hzqqrfqvwjdvw5muhg8emha8thnluwklpa0qpmfcuq Aloniaxx Israel is deeply embedded in the heart of UK gov and has been for decades. It wields immense power, plus is a big buyer of arms UK sells. npub1pz03fppy7ktex5q0hzqqrfqvwjdvw5muhg8emha8thnluwklpa0qpmfcuq Aloniaxx "Dead catting" is their MO. We should know that by now. npub1pz03fppy7ktex5q0hzqqrfqvwjdvw5muhg8emha8thnluwklpa0qpmfcuq Aloniaxx I know I've posted up this most excellent image of this statue of Judith holding the severed head of Holofernes...but it's just SO great. npub1pz03fppy7ktex5q0hzqqrfqvwjdvw5muhg8emha8thnluwklpa0qpmfcuq Aloniaxx Ta. I have a detached retired nurse kind of interest in these kinds of things that happen to me. npub1pz03fppy7ktex5q0hzqqrfqvwjdvw5muhg8emha8thnluwklpa0qpmfcuq Aloniaxx The cold, which started with 4 days of a bad sore throat, progressed to very runny nose and lots of sneezing (which I perversely enjoy), went on to intermittant total nose blockage coupled with temp spikes has now entered the tickly dry unproductive cough stage. I have therefore ordered a job lot of Fishermens Friends after finding very little in the way of decent cough sweets up the shops the other day. Interesting how colds can be so different in how they manifest. npub1pz03fppy7ktex5q0hzqqrfqvwjdvw5muhg8emha8thnluwklpa0qpmfcuq Aloniaxx Scottish humour. As a fellow van driver, albeit not a white Transit style van, I do love seeing stuff like this. npub1pz03fppy7ktex5q0hzqqrfqvwjdvw5muhg8emha8thnluwklpa0qpmfcuq Aloniaxx Polio, diptheria, measles, mumps, chicken pox, HPV, covid, Guinea worm, TB, influenza, Dengue fever, Hep A, Hep B, meningitis, Mpox, pneumonia, Rotavirus, shingles, tetanus, whooping cough, cholera, anthrax, rabies, smallpox, typhoid fever, yellow fever. A little list of vaccines that have been saving lives for decades. All these illnesses can and do kill. Robert F. Kennedy Jnr wants to stop vaccines. He wants pandemics and mass death by the most horrible illnesses imaginable. npub1pz03fppy7ktex5q0hzqqrfqvwjdvw5muhg8emha8thnluwklpa0qpmfcuq Aloniaxx Polio, diptheria, measles, mumps, chicken pox, HPV, covid, Guinea worm, TB, influenza, Dengue fever, Hep A, Hep B, meningitis, Mpox, pneumonia, Rotavirus, shingles, tetanus, whooping cough, cholera, anthrax, rabies, smallpox, typhoid fever, yellow fever.

He wants pandemics and mass death by the most horrible illnesses imaginable. Bookmark this. npub1pz03fppy7ktex5q0hzqqrfqvwjdvw5muhg8emha8thnluwklpa0qpmfcuq Aloniaxx It seems strange to me that they're both pragmatists and yet highly religious, vry contradictory positions on the face of it. npub1pz03fppy7ktex5q0hzqqrfqvwjdvw5muhg8emha8thnluwklpa0qpmfcuq Aloniaxx In my long experience both socially and of psych nursing, I honestly think there are people with a strong disposition to be easily persuaded by conspiracy theories, cults, religions etc. I also think some countries are much more prone to it than others, maybe due to their media, or cultural beliefs or traditions or just plain ole habits. npub1pz03fppy7ktex5q0hzqqrfqvwjdvw5muhg8emha8thnluwklpa0qpmfcuq Aloniaxx I went out once with my new camera about a year ago with the intention of trying to photograph some local birds. OMG I had NO idea it was so difficult. I have a new-found respect for bird photographers. npub1pz03fppy7ktex5q0hzqqrfqvwjdvw5muhg8emha8thnluwklpa0qpmfcuq Aloniaxx Ohh, thanks for that. I had wondered if they were in an African league but as I'm not an avid footie fan I didn't look it up. So they've had acceptance problems a long time. npub1pz03fppy7ktex5q0hzqqrfqvwjdvw5muhg8emha8thnluwklpa0qpmfcuq Aloniaxx Oh, is that really the case? npub1pz03fppy7ktex5q0hzqqrfqvwjdvw5muhg8emha8thnluwklpa0qpmfcuq Aloniaxx Besides which, since when is Israel in Europe regarding the football tournament?? npub1pz03fppy7ktex5q0hzqqrfqvwjdvw5muhg8emha8thnluwklpa0qpmfcuq Aloniaxx For non-Brits this is really much too hard to explain for numerous cultural and humour reasons without pissing off a huge number of people. npub1pz03fppy7ktex5q0hzqqrfqvwjdvw5muhg8emha8thnluwklpa0qpmfcuq Aloniaxx Those in the last 6mths of life are already in purgatory and whilst working in nursing homes delivering palliative care the teams I worked with did all they could to allieviate both mental and physical suffering, thereby often bringing that life to a peaceful end. The balance between allieviation of suffering and accelerating death is fuzzy and it's only when you know your patient that key decisions about escalating treatment can be made at the right time. npub1pz03fppy7ktex5q0hzqqrfqvwjdvw5muhg8emha8thnluwklpa0qpmfcuq Aloniaxx Interesting. So Kennedy and his sidekick want vaccines withdrawn...bring on the biological warfare induced by the actions of a "true American" on the people. Get yourselves and your children protected asap I say. #USpol npub1pz03fppy7ktex5q0hzqqrfqvwjdvw5muhg8emha8thnluwklpa0qpmfcuq Aloniaxx "As journalists, we, like FBI investigators, used evidence to show how social media was a vulnerable “threat surface” that bad actors such as Cambridge Analytica and the Kremlin could exploit. PhDs have been written on the weaponisation of social media. But none of this helps us now." npub1pz03fppy7ktex5q0hzqqrfqvwjdvw5muhg8emha8thnluwklpa0qpmfcuq Aloniaxx The phenomenon has been known about for a very long time, but we neither pay attention to history (lest we forget) nor do we take steps to avoid a repeat of the worst of history. We kind of get what we deserve for that. npub1pz03fppy7ktex5q0hzqqrfqvwjdvw5muhg8emha8thnluwklpa0qpmfcuq Aloniaxx The MSM and western leaders are so stupid that they didn’t realise hundreds of people filmed exactly what happened in Amsterdam. Much as "citizen journalism" is slated and derided, it's the unvarnished record of stuff that is actually happening right there in front of them and we should be thankful these tiny snippets of truth can escape out into the wild and inform us. #Amsterdam npub1pz03fppy7ktex5q0hzqqrfqvwjdvw5muhg8emha8thnluwklpa0qpmfcuq Aloniaxx There are 800k pensioners who qualify for winter fuel payments, but haven't yet claimed it. A big push (publicised) to get those signed up would help. That would then leave approx 900k in the situation described by USwitch. (How did they get those stats anyway?) npub1pz03fppy7ktex5q0hzqqrfqvwjdvw5muhg8emha8thnluwklpa0qpmfcuq Aloniaxx If the 20% tariff comes in on imported goods the UK will be severely affected as apparently the trade with the US is worth about £149billion though I'm not sure what kinds of goods that represents. npub1pz03fppy7ktex5q0hzqqrfqvwjdvw5muhg8emha8thnluwklpa0qpmfcuq Aloniaxx Someone's done the sums and apparently every adult in the UK is paying £12.50 to the King every year, whether they like it, know it or agree with it or not. I can feel my rage bubbling under like a volcano about to erupt. #RoyalMillions npub1pz03fppy7ktex5q0hzqqrfqvwjdvw5muhg8emha8thnluwklpa0qpmfcuq Aloniaxx I'm hoping Spaniards are now re-considering their urban landscapes to make them more flood resilient...they're going to have to make quite drastic changes. npub1pz03fppy7ktex5q0hzqqrfqvwjdvw5muhg8emha8thnluwklpa0qpmfcuq Aloniaxx For my cousin and others in the US. Lovely poster. npub1pz03fppy7ktex5q0hzqqrfqvwjdvw5muhg8emha8thnluwklpa0qpmfcuq Aloniaxx "The royal family charge the RNLI in the Scilly Isles for the lifeboats crossing ' their ' beaches when they are launched . npub1pz03fppy7ktex5q0hzqqrfqvwjdvw5muhg8emha8thnluwklpa0qpmfcuq Aloniaxx Awww, so there's more than a grain of truth in that post, which I read primarily as a sweet joke! npub1pz03fppy7ktex5q0hzqqrfqvwjdvw5muhg8emha8thnluwklpa0qpmfcuq Aloniaxx "My fellow Americans- npub1pz03fppy7ktex5q0hzqqrfqvwjdvw5muhg8emha8thnluwklpa0qpmfcuq Aloniaxx “Solar panels are a vital technology to help achieve our mission to deliver net zero. However, they may not be the best option for all new homes, for example those surrounded by trees or with lots of shade overhead. It is also crucial we set standards for new homes in a way that allows for future innovation and flexibility in technology and design, which is why the building regulations do not mandate one particular option.” npub1pz03fppy7ktex5q0hzqqrfqvwjdvw5muhg8emha8thnluwklpa0qpmfcuq Aloniaxx All the bulbs are planted. The writing on some of the labels had faded, but I know the difference between tulip and daffodil bulbs, alliums not so much. Some are in 2 troughs, the rest in the ground under the Worcester Pearmain. The soil there is in desperate need for some compost top-dressing so that's something else added to the ongoing list. I need LOTS more bulbs too! Whoo hoo...trip to my fave garden centre being pencilled in on calendar as we speak. #gardening npub1pz03fppy7ktex5q0hzqqrfqvwjdvw5muhg8emha8thnluwklpa0qpmfcuq Aloniaxx I have just used my last shop-bought teabag and so now I'll be using tealeaves in the little re-usable bags from now on. Another tiny victory. If only I could find a decent little container to re-use for my coffee machine. I've tried a few and they're useless. npub1pz03fppy7ktex5q0hzqqrfqvwjdvw5muhg8emha8thnluwklpa0qpmfcuq Aloniaxx Thorpe utterly fails to realise KC3 has no power to restore lands, give back bones etc nor give the country away and let it be a republic. Only Australians and the Australian government can do that. She's barking...up the wrong tree. npub1pz03fppy7ktex5q0hzqqrfqvwjdvw5muhg8emha8thnluwklpa0qpmfcuq Aloniaxx #SilentSunday Part of today's walk. npub1pz03fppy7ktex5q0hzqqrfqvwjdvw5muhg8emha8thnluwklpa0qpmfcuq Aloniaxx I wonder whether it's a case of "word association" for him...Stormy Daniels is in the news again about to make more revelations (she who said his was like a little mushroom), coupled with the constant swirl of knowing he's been accused of rape and other attacks on women, and with his internal knowledge that he's well past his prime despite fake tan and fake hair and dodgy dancing....it's very telling. npub1pz03fppy7ktex5q0hzqqrfqvwjdvw5muhg8emha8thnluwklpa0qpmfcuq Aloniaxx I'd be interested to know soil test results. I'm wondering if it needs some lime?
