It’s being reported that immigration minister Robert Jenrick ordered staff at an asylum reception centre to paint over pictures of cartoons & animals to ensure children did not feel welcomed

This government has lost sight of its humanity

The new Hugo arrived! Now I need to figure out how to arrange my awards table so that you can actually see all 5 of them. I might have to trade up to an awards cabinet. And yeah, it's a flex, so I turned on the spaceship lamp to make it special, lol. (Ignore my messy desk pls)

My teen daughter was asked by her doctor when was her last menstrual period. She said “it’s regular, no need for dates”. When I asked her why the reply, she told me that doctors can no longer be trusted and they should become accustomed to not knowing. Welcome to the new America.

and in order to hear the birds
the warplanes must be silent
