A thing of which I will never tire: popular images used to represent hacking and/or the dark web ImageImageImageImage
Particularly enjoying the guy in the hazmat suit who can project binary from his face
The ubiquitous faceless hoody is quite the thing ImageImageImageImage
And I'm sure the Wachowskis can be glad of their legacy contribution to people's understanding of what code looks like ImageImageImageImage
And in that first set of images, I am very here for the l337 hacker clearly at his gran's house, using her Edwardian barley-twist leg table, with lovely table lamp.

What if C H O N K but make it horse Image
The Ardennes draught horse originates from the Ardennes area of Belgium, Luxembourg, and France. Considered one of the oldest breeds of draught horse, it may be a direct descendent of the prehistoric Solutré Horse.

There is going to be a mental health crisis unlike anything we've seen before. PTSD will be widespread, and look who we've got running the country.
When soldiers return from active duty, the TRIM (Trauma Risk Management) system helps deal with issues arising from acclimating back into civilian life. It's designed to provide support in the aftermath of traumatic events. Which is what we have here, on a huge scale.
It won't just be frontline healthcare workers either. I fear a massive trauma response from the wider population, as and when Covid is brought under control and we begin to return to whatever 'normal' looks like at that point.

Tories don't think they're behaving callously towards families in poverty. The genuinely believe, in the way believe things you've been explicitly and implicitly told throughout your life, that poverty is a *punishable moral failing*. 1/
Bad decisions by parents. Drink and drugs. Layabout attitude. Wanting something for nothing.

It's ideological moralising, pure and simple.
(Hypocrisy too, since the majority of these traits are in plain sight amongst the already wealthy.)
I grew up in a pretty Tory environment. I believed - again - through explicit and implicit messages - that there were 'common people' and there were 'nice people'. Nice people didn't have strong regional accents. Or get drunks. Or were poor.

#goatse
Or this was designed by someone who absolutely DOES remember it, and knows they can get away with it b/c almost nobody else does.
Also: that person has REALLY long arms.

I see the Tories have managed to make a massive grift out of free school meals.
Featuring the ex CEO of Diageo, Paul Walsh, who used to work with a current cabinet minister. Giving out £6 worth of nutritionally deficient food for £30 cost to taxpayer and the rest goes on 'admin costs'.
