“We need to talk about Nicky. Or Baroness Morgan of Cotes as she now insists on being called by family & staff alike. Not even Nicky addresses herself as Nicky any more.”

Brutal but good from ⁦@JohnJCrace⁩

“Some people are born great, some achieve greatness & some have mediocrity thrust upon them.”
“What secured her a place in Government was effortlessly closing down the investigation into Boris’s financial dealing with Jennifer Arcuri before it had even got under way”
The BBC needs to be more transparent and accountable. “This from a minister who doesn’t understand the meaning of democracy, having secured her position in the cabinet by lying to her constituents & helping herself to a peerage”

“Brighton and Whitby both received blue flag status for their high water quality, clean beaches and facilities this year but Brighton had 28 sewage spills between May and the end of August this year and Whitby nine.”

That’s the good end. Read on for #BrexshitBritain
Very bad luck if you live in or visit Kent, Sussex, Isle of Wight or Hampshire relying one Sourthern Water for clean water.

And the official figures are likely to be an understatement..

“It may also need some serious branding work. The phrase “left behind” is not entirely ideal for instilling the sense of possibilities and excitement that the move is meant to entail.”

“In a leaked Twitter message written during the investigation, Wigmore was confident that the NCA would find in their favor. “You forget that throughout..we were privy to who said what & why… the NCA were very willing to cooperate with us & gave us everything we needed to know.”
I think that needs some explanation from the @NCA

@YvetteCooperMP

Who was involved or had access to the Leave EU/Banks investigation such that the suspects knew who said what to who. Who was so “helpful” in the NCA and why?
Who do you think should be alerted @brexit_sham @Turloughc @shady_inf0

sugar baby kirishima angst hcs 🥰

he understands that bakugou has things he doesn’t want to share, and he has parts of his life that are private, but it makes him feel like shit because he doesn’t even have the option to keep secrets when he relies on someone for everything.
he tries to start hiding things from bakugou, stupid things, like what friends he talks to most, what they talk about, but it ends up backfiring when katsuki thinks he’s cheating.
so now, ei has absolutely nothing private, and it makes him feel even less like a real person, and more like an accessory for a famous rich guy.

More companies than ever are waking up to the importance of diversity.

But *awareness* doesn't automatically lead to *effectiveness.*

Many teams are overwhelmed, asking "how can we hire more women?"

And I'm here to tell you, it's not rocket science. <thread>
First, gender is far from the only dimension of diversity.

Effective diversity is intersectional, aimed at removing systemic barriers for *all,* not just favoring one group over another.

I've previously written an explainer on intersectionality here: medium.com/awaken-blog/in…
But back to the main question!

I see a lot of companies thinking they have to commit to big goals and big budgets in the pursuit of diversity.

We can create complicated plans all day, but if you're overwhelmed/scrambling, I suggest starting with what's right in front of you.

Now that the embargo is up I can now say #Borderlands3 has the worst jokes & writing of any video game I've ever played. The guns may feel good but mowing down enemy after enemy for repetitive missions & brutally uninspired side quests for 30+ hours absolutely sucks. (Thread)
I can't comment on how it compares to the others in the franchise but the humor is about what it's always been (according to my colleagues). I guess that means it has always been bad. I think fans will feel right at home OR like they've outgrown literal toilet humor.
This game feels like it was written my immature middle schoolers who think erections & poop are the funniest things in the world. I'm positive that Borderlands 3 thinks drawing a penis in the bathroom stall is the pinnacle of comedy.

Good morning! Today the House Oversight Committee will hold a hearing on "The Trump Administration’s Child Separation Policy: Substantiated Allegations of Mistreatment." I'll be livetweeting parts of the hearing (from 10AM-12PM).

Here's the livestream. oversight.house.gov/legislation/he…
Today's hearing is broken into two panels. Up first will be four members of Congress themselves testifying about what they witnessed firsthand at the border on a recent trip: Representatives @AOC, @RepEscobar, @RashidaTlaib, and @AyannaPressley.
The second panel includes both government and non-government witnesses. Members will hear from Jennifer Costello, Acting DHS Inspector General, Ann Maxwell, Assistant IG for HHS, Columbia Law's Elora Mukherjee, @youngcenter's Jennifer Nagda, and former ICE Director Thomas Homan.

1/8 My favorite #quote by #JosephStalin, which explains the scientific, #DialecticalMaterialist explanation of true freedom in material reality, not just as an abstract ideal. #StalinIsBack #StalinLives #JVStalin #Stalin #StalinQuote #StalinQuotes #Truth #MELS #MarxismLeninism
2/8 Having an #objective, #rational, #ScientificSocialist, #Dialectical, & #Materialist viewpoint allows us to accurately see & evaluate & analyze #Truth & #Reality as they truly materially exist in this universe.
3/8 An idealistic, dogmatic viewpoint, which capitalists have, however, makes one irrational enough to 'see' freedom where freedom stays trapped on a piece of paper while people are oppressed in their actual lived lives.

》》Lay you down

•When it feels so right
It can never be wrong•

For the 1st time, Jimin tries marijuana at a party, enjoying with his friends.

Until he wakes up naked against his bf's big brother, Min Yoongi. The one he was supposed to meet the same day.
☣ Angst and NSFW content. Irrepressible desire. Cheating, lies, culpability, betrayal.

Forbidden but unstoppable feelings.
Jimin didn’t know why he had agreed to come to this party, which was taking place at someone he didn’t even know, with people he didn’t even know.

Maybe because his friends had long insisted that he accompany them.
