Asking again:
Who's that guy next to B. Johnson's favourite hacker? (Innotech Summit/Lawrence Lessig at Second Home/2014)
(Does he look "ThomasBorwicky" -Or is it just me?)
@peterjukes @carolecadwalla @brexit_sham @PeterKGeoghegan @fascinatorfun @cockneycampaign @libdemfightback
@peterjukes @carolecadwalla @brexit_sham @PeterKGeoghegan @fascinatorfun @cockneycampaign @Libdemfightback "20 May 2015: Lawrence Lessig has already transformed intellectual-property law with his Creative Commons innovation. Now he’s focused on an even bigger problem: The US’ broken political system."
"Lawrence Lessig: The corruption of Democracy in the USA"
@peterjukes @carolecadwalla @brexit_sham @PeterKGeoghegan @fascinatorfun @cockneycampaign @Libdemfightback An Innotech summit theme going superwell with Jennifer Arcuri's associate current hobby (hello @MartynMcL)

No.
1/ Lies are the reason the UK got in this mess in the 1st place. More of what made it sick is not going to heal it.
2/ #BreakingNews: They are better at it.
3/ What remedy then? Leveson II/Law against fake news. GNU led by Bercow to write a constitution closing the loopholes.
That's like saying:
To heal the USA, be more Trumpy than Trump.
Also, that strategy has been adopted by the Labour party. Not going that well, is it?
What to do then?
This 👇
Refuse to fuel the divisions: Focus on what unites us.
All of the UK can unite behind "Brexit benefits". A funded NHS. A more equal society. Avoid environmental apocalypse. Make the establishment accountable.
United we stand.

If "Find a solution for the Irish border not screwing up the GFA with the UK out of SM/CU" had been a pre-requisite to the Referendum, we'd still be waiting for it.
So don't give me "people made an informed choice"
Don't blame reality/neighbours, blame the "It'll be easy!" liars
And please understand that the reason it matters is not the lorries.

💥OMG! This is dynamite!💥
The EU funds an anti-corruption *charity* based in Berlin, that has a UK *independent* chapter that @joswinson's husband is the interim director of!
Not companies, non-profits!
With public accounts!
He makes less than his wife!
transparency.org.uk/who-we-are/who…
@joswinson So, to clarify, this is bullsh**.
The EU donation was not for the UK branch, in any case, there's no companies around, only a not-for-profit charity with many chapters (&many funders) as anyone bothering to take a look at their (public) account can see. Smearing disinfo campaign.
@joswinson To clarify some more.
There is a UK company associated with the charity TI UK (common practice I'm told?), that "Mr Swinson" is not a Director of.
IAC as an employee of the associated charity, he didn't get to pocket the EU donation made to another entity.

Aproveitando a onda de combate à corrupção, tenho uma notícia CHOCANTE para vocês:
- Corrupção não é a maior ameaça à democracia.
CALMA. CALMA. CALMA! Antes de me xingar, entenda:
+
Antes d+nada, isso ñ significa q corrupção é algo bom ou inofensivo. Pelo contrário. Dinheiro desviado é dinheiro q mata gente, PORÉM, ela não é a maior ameaça à democracia, ñ do jeito q vcs pensam.
Pq?
Vamos, primeiro, estudar um pouco sobre a presença d corrupção. +
+TODOS os países do mundo têm corrupção, uns mais ou menos, mas tem e sempre vai ter. Mesmo países com penas severas são ineficazes p/erradicá-la pq sempre vai ter alguém mais poderoso q precisa dela e vai abafar o caso. Até pq o problema da corrupção ñ é o corrupto em si +

This is about to begin... again. #UnitedShades
That white guy next to me works on #UnitedShades. Tommy is THE BEST!!!!
This book was over 30 years overdue from the Mobile public library. (I'm sorry.) Once I knew I had had it out more than 10 years, I dreamed of returning it - & filming it. Dreams come true. I felt compelled to give a donation. Most expensive book I don't own. 🤣🤣🤣#UnitedShades

Home
no one leaves home unless home chases you
fire under feet
hot blood in your belly
it’s not something you ever thought of doing
until the blade burnt threats into
your neck
and even then you carried the anthem under
your breath

#home #warsanshire #poems
#WhereAreTheChildren
only tearing up your passport in an airport toilets
sobbing as each mouthful of paper
made it clear that you wouldn’t be going back.

you have to understand,
that no one puts their children in a boat
unless the water is safer than the land
no one burns their palms
under trains
beneath carriages
no one spends days and nights in the stomach of a truck
feeding on newspaper unless the miles travelled
means something more than journey.
no one crawls under fences
no one wants to be beaten
pitied

#b Excellence is overrated, competence is underrated.
Competence is knowing what to do in a situation and how to do it. It is not the same as excellence.
Excellence is dependent on other people, like judges, examiners, teachers, assessors, inspectors, auditors. But we can't control these people and whether they think we're excellent or not.

#b 'Teknik menjawab' is not a series of rituals that you carry out to secure an A in the exam. You don't get guaranteed an A just through superficial actions like highlighting keywords or drawing meniscus or inserting isi tersirat.
The problem is students and teachers treat teknik menjawab as some sort of pseudo magical ritualistic gestures that will bring a certain outcome. Draw a pentagram, slaughter a chicken, and your wish will be granted.
Some remote Pacific Islanders in 1940s came in contact with Allied and Japanese soldiers who were more technologically advanced and thought the soldiers were gods who had many "cargo" (canned food, electronics, modern stuff)
