My father went and got himself a sausage and bacon sandwich from the sandwich shop in the village... and did not even consider getting me or mum one. I am packing my little knapsack and running away! I can no longer thrive in this household!

yep it really is. Even a single author writing a book is almost definitely gonna go through different versions and change some of the ideas before it is complete. It's just how stories work.

I desperately need Destiny players to let go of the idea that there was this one true original complete story of the game that would have been perfect and fixed every problem they have. *grabs them* I need you to understand that stories *change* and develop over time. Even if what had been released

Google’s emissions are up 48% in 5 years. Microsoft’s are up 30% since 2020. Those soaring figures are being driven by mass investments in data centers to power AI tools. Generative AI is a climate disaster and data center expansion must be stopped.

If your area got a new Labour MP then it is your duty to email them and say that you are happy the Tories are out but that transphobia should have no place in the party. Make Starmer gently walk back his support for Rowling's position!

So to confirm, now we have near-final numbers: Every time 19 Tory MPs get a bit grumpy this parliament and stick their letters into the 1922 Committee... ...it'll automatically trigger a leadership contest.

Something that's important to do now is WRITE TO YOUR MP. Particularly if they are new. Not a form letter or autogenerated one. An actual personal one. Not frothy. Just firm and clear. Ask them their views. When they respond, tell them how it aligns (or doesn't) to KEEP your vote.

A total of four seats for the Greens, up from one, and Lib Dems up a massive 61 from 8. There's a story there, and the story is there are people who are left-leaning, but cannot vote for labour with a clear conscience. (Climate change ignored and anti-trans rhetoric.)

Also eat something salty, with the water as the salt helps with better rehydrating! If you have to be out, gatorade, or even vitamin water, basically drinks with electrolytes, will help a LOT more than plain water. But also plain water works if you can't get the other stuff.

If you're in the UK, reading the press coverage of the general election, and thinking 'yay, it's going to be like 1997 on Friday', take a moment to remember 1992. If you don't recall, find someone who does. Go out and vote tomorrow. Every vote matters. Tell your friends and get them voting too!

This means romance authors. This means poets. This means screenwriters and playwrights and actors of anything remotely risqué. And eventually, anything secular. They have no point of satisfaction until they’ve erased all of non-Christian expression.

I know smut may seem like a frivolous thing to be upset about, but crushing it is part of fascism. Controlling all forms of sexual expression is fascism. Only allowing certain kinds is fascism. Smut peddlers are always canaries in the coal mines.
