Ask me about Hotel Del Luna, I want everyone to watch it. :) I like cats, art, info about early years education and neurodivergence. And Hotel Del Luna. If I follow you I don't expect you do it back, don't feel like you have to. :)

I think the only useful application is to actually look at the areas where someone does well so as to suggest things they might put their effort in if they're struggling in other areas. That way they can get a bump in confidence.

IQ is a great indicator of intelligence, in that the second you see someone obsessing over it online, you can usually conclude they’re dumb as rocks.

Counterpoint: in my country, Meloni wouldn't have got as many seats were it not for the FPTP portion of our system.

At least the Greens will get as much coverage as Reform across all the channels now.

I am looking forward to the Greens enjoying the same level of media platform as Reform, given they have the same number of seats.

I was wondering about that. I know there are guides on how to report suicides, is there any risk that being too specific with the details might as you say I spire someone else? I didn't read the articles simply because other than he was caught... I don't want to pry in her business?

Hi all UK voters, very brief politics, will be back to music/history immediately. * Parties get funded based on votes, your vote is worth about £1 per year, so worth something to them. * Even though a smaller party probably won't win, they can build up support ahead of 2029 or whenever.

I was in London when John Major won. That was a bummer. I was in London when Bush won in 2000. I went to bed that night with the news saying Gore won, and woke to headlines of Bush winning. Disaster the world never recovered from. Go forth. Vote the Tories out.

Ridiculously, you now need ID to vote in the UK, because Boris Johnson tried to rig elections in his party’s favour. I’ll be putting mine in my bag tonight so I don’t forget it, or have a panic trying to find it, in the morning. And then I’m going to goddamn well VOTE.

The last few years have been pretty stressful personally and due to all the stuff that politics affected but I find myself much less excited about tomorrow than how much I'd have thought given how much I pined for the election. It's almost like I got numb. I hope things do get better.

Oh man. It would be gutting if the Libs were so close. Come on, Lab and Green folks in Con/Lib marginals: give the Tories that extra shove into the bin. (That said: would also be funny if this MP count happened, the Tories went hard right with a new leader, and two Tories defected.)

Keeping Trump out of the White House isn’t the only thing that needs doing and it isn’t enough to solve all problems facing the country & world but if it isn’t done then all those problems get exponentially worse in ways I don’t even know how to express and it scares me when people pretend otherwise

Mississippi is the poorest state in the US.
Even though the state gets federal welfare funds, it is difficult to get welfare.
The money was all getting stolen, and they got away with it.
Now the journalists who exposed the story are facing a lawsuit and jail.

It's more insidious than that, I'm afraid. UBI would mean far more people have the option to *not* work a given job. It's less about celebrating grind and more because the people at the top are worried it would make normal people far more resistant to the routine exploitation they depend upon.

Why do we celebrate entrepreneurs for chasing passive income but condemn the idea of universal basic passive income as making people lazy? Both strategies aim for financial security without daily work. Let's normalize a financial floor for everyone, not just the investment-savvy with enough capital.

The 14th Amendment says if you were involved in an insurrection you can't be president. SCOTUS said they won't allow anyone to enforce that because of reasons they made up. The Constitution doesn't say the president is immune from criminal law. SCOTUS decided he is because of reasons they made up.
