@angryaboutbikes @judeinlondon It's a lot easier once you know there is literally nothing you could do or say that they would like.

If Hannah Spencer had said “Oh it’s great being an MP, there’s a cheap bar where you can post up before late-night votes” then you’d be seeing a timeline full of outraged “Centrists” and Labour MPs preaching the virtues of teetotalism at work. I’m sick of the circus.

@eneribehave What's the documentary?

I watched a documentary yesterday where a woman went to the police and said she’s been getting vile emails off her ex from 20 years ago, you see her on the body cam talking to the police with all the evidence including being sent pics of her husband going to work from the stalker

@danielgoyal What's a good level of occupancy? Genuine qu

For the last three years the NHS (England) have run at 93% bed occupancy. This is the worst in the history of the NHS It is the worst in the entire OCED We also have 40% fewer beds than the OCED average Again, for the cheap seats: the NHS is too small!

The profit motive will end life on Earth if we let it

"UK's biggest ever environmental pollution claim reaches High Court." Good luck to everyone in the High Court today. Speaks volumes that decent people like gillie Nathan Jubb @gillieUB keep having to resort to the courts just to get something done while the regulators do nothing, absolutely nothing. bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…

Roundup often gets a bad rap since it, you know, causes cancer and other terminal illnesses. But don’t forget it played a huge role in collapsing the bee population, which may lead to the most deaths in the long run.

Outside the Royal Courts of Justice where the Goddess of the Wye & River Wye guardians are awaiting the start of the biggest river pollution case in UK history. Thousands of people are challenging the chicken farming & sewage pollution that is killing their river. bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…

@VeryBadLlama This was me in the catfood shop yesterday when the teenager tried to explain to me why my cat isn't eating. *thousand yard stare to horizon*

whenever AI pops up unbidden to try to “help me” with my writing

@catshealworldd She's a bit busy

I need a moment to reset. May I see your cat? 🥺

@KayleighBritta6 @cem_uk_ So fucking what? It's *not* a corporate jolly. In fact that's exactly what fucking well pisses me off.

@cem_uk_ In the corporate world it's actually very normal to have a drink at a business lunch or dinner. Nobody is getting smashed but a glass of wine or 2, or a whisky whilst you're discussing financials and profitability is completely normal.

Call me crazy, but I don't think there should be a bar in parliament, tax-payer funded or not. I think any politician who goes into work drunk, should be kicked out of their job, same as they would be in literally any other job.

@JossJo_1989 @cem_uk_ Well put on some bloody yoga and woodworking classes or something if they need to relax

@cem_uk_ Parliament isn't just about MPs. There's a workforce of over 7,000 people. You're putting people out of their jobs by removing the hospitality.

@cem_uk_ But if not drunk how to establish and securely maintain the kompromat cabal with the drunk journalists?

@marypatf @Bad_Babette NO

@Bad_Babette Maybe even nipnop piercings

Actualy your know, mine Frend Cleet would looked Grate with an Belley Buttom peircimg

@ozlemycy @strzyga_demona So does mine! Or at least comes to investigate

@strzyga_demona Benimkiler de kakaları temizlenince çok mutlu oluyor, gelip beni tebrik ediyorlar

evde iki tane kedi tuvaleti var. birini kaka birini çiş için kullanıyolar. iki kiloluk canlılar tuvalet kullanımı için birlikte bi karar almış ve resmen uyguluyolar bu kararı yıllardır

I suppose Hannah Spencer has a problem with me having a swift 3-4 pints on my lunch break too, does she. take it up with Arriva love.

@CaliTenDay Where does she end up?

Friend started running a while back, and I asked how many miles she does a week and she told me she doesn’t know, that she just goes outside and runs and stops when she’s tired.

Planting trees is certainly good. But it doesn't create a forest. Existing forests should be aggressively protected. There is NO substitute for a natural forest.

@Bad_Babette I'm not liking when my cat friend look sick

Your Know. I would looky, So Sick with an Belly Buttom peircimg,

@WalterBestBoy @pepperbug Ours always got a bald spot from spot on, so we finally got her to take a pill, but she went very quiet for a day and had diarrhea for a bit 😢

@pepperbug can't speak on the harness training but for flea and tick prevention: in my experience cats absolutely hate it, like you put the goo on and for the next few hours they get super jumpy/worked up. that's a normal response, but if it's worse than that (1/2)

we have been floating the idea of harness training lugosi. i have never harness trained a cat before and i'm also inexperienced in flea & tick prevention treatment. do any of our friends here have any experience with these things? lugosi for attention

@TriciaDearborn That sounds very true. i know an elderly perdon who watches ai YouTube 'stories'. They are very dull to me because the stories barely make sense, in exactly the way you describe. They are a string of tropes lacking any narrative arc that aligns with my understanding of 'story'.

But a manuscript generated by AI feels like porridge. Impossible to separate out the elements, impossible to untangle.

If you're thinking about using gen-AI to "write" books, this 🧵 is for you. I’m a highly experienced editor who’s been in the biz a long time. Recently I’ve had manuscripts come to me where the author has used gen-AI – not for writing, I’ve been assured, but for
