I really don’t mind repeatedly explaining the same financial stuff to my mother, I really don’t (ok, maybe a tiny bit).
But I wish she’d fucking let me get a complete sentence out without interrupting.
Hail Eris!
“When we got there, the whole warehouse was full of cheese wheels on top of one another,” said Daniele Retto, a spokesperson for the local fire brigade department, according to NBC News. “We had to call the unit that specializes in the search and rescue of people under the rubble, especially after an earthquake. They spent hours moving the wheels by hand, one by one, and found his body only in the morning.”
Yikes.
There’s going to be an element of placebo effect, and the fact that women aren’t (biologically or socially) equipped to deal with the effects.
(Not disagreeing in principle with your point.)
I suspect the ones just playing along would use “she” or “they”, and the hardcore would carefully cycle through all three (or more).

There is only one strand of mainstream grassroots activism today that threatens intimidation and violence against its political opponents. While Just Stop Oil and other eco-activists are willing to break the law by blockading roads and disrupting cultural events, only the trans mob poses a violent threat. Needless to say, this is a threat aimed almost exclusively at women.
The very fact that there is now a credible threat of violence against Joanna Cherry’s Edinburgh appearance amply demonstrates the dark turn that has been taken by trans activism. There was a time when trans activists would have been satisfied with merely silencing and shaming women for having the temerity to talk about their rights. Those days are long gone.

It’s telling that this, from you, is high praise.
Does Peg Tittle have a new one out, or is this the first time you’ve read *It Wasn’t Enough?” If the latter, you’ll need a hanky.
We were talking about this at sewing, sample quote: “Our whole village has oil, how is it supposed to work?”
NatWest announced the changes in a leaflet first sent in June, entitled “tomorrow begins today”, advising customers of changes to their terms and conditions.
The new rules, which come into force on Sept 11, state that: “We may apply limits to payments to and from your account, for example, to the amount of cash you pay in or withdraw, or to payment types where there is a high risk of fraud, scams or other crimes.”
Anne-Marie Morris, a Tory MP who sits on the Commons treasury committee, added: “We should not be moving to a cashless society without consumer consultation and consent.
The weather keeps catching me out, the last few days.
I let Dog out first thing and it’s grey and chilly, so when I get dressed I put on a long-sleeved top.
I poke my head out before we go for our walk, and it’s still grey and chilly so I put my coat on.
Ten minutes later, the sun starts appearing, the humidity rises, and suddenly I’m much too hot even with my coat tied around my waist.

An old CO detector that was in the bin with, presumably, something on to pressing down the self-test button.
Wow: you really do need to line the tin. Even if it’s non-stick.
Idiots.
Wet Island.
Well, that was unexpected!
One of the half-dead tomato plants I stuck outside to see what happened.

The more interest the newspaper thinks there is, the more likely they are to publish something. It certainly won’t hurt, and you did say you wanted to help them out if you could.
Could you write a letter (email?) to the local newspaper about them, that might get a journalist’s attention.
I can’t wait to see this “evidence”.
