Ad targeting at its *best*
Yes I *am* interested in these grants
(And also who funds them -and grants them)
I mean what’s more fascinating than funding oneself to conduct global efficient lobbying as a “charitable” activity
“Charitable” like lobbying for private healthcare…
Or GM “to save the planet” …
BTW U.K. how is this “charitable” influence going?

"There was a core group of awkward squad MPs centred around Steve Baker, John Baron, Peter Bone, Douglas Carswell, Chris Chope, Philip Hollobone, David Nuttall and Mark Reckless, although others would drift in and out."

"They would meet for an hour, every Tuesday morning at 08:30 in Room R, an out-of-the-way committee room in the parliamentary office building, Portcullis House, to go through the Commons agenda, seeking opportunities to push their views&agree on tactics. "It never, never leaked."
"On govt side, the whips spotted there was an organised low-key insurgency under way, but, as 1 senior figure now admits, they didn't spot how organised&more importantly how strategic the whole exercise was. They dismissed the group as chronic conspirators w/time on their hands"

More of what created the issue in the first place is not going to help at all.
As in you don’t extinguish fire with more fire.
But what is the water/foam/ice that could extinguish the disinformation fire?
Simply put: Common ground.
And this can’t happen if we do not live in the same world.
There is common ground to be found: We all need water, food, a roof over our heads, à reason to get up in the morning. Hope, a future. And a planet.
Not like there’s no common battle that we could unite for.

Today both my kids went in the mountain to plant some trees with the National Forests Office (cedars & black pines)
I only noticed at noon my 5-yrs old had forgotten to put on his t-shirt
He did tree-planting trek in his pyjama top
Well they had asked for a “comfortable outfit”..
He’s now proudly jumping in the living-room telling his brother: “Yeah you can go to school as a Hogwarts student, but I went in my PYJAMAS!”
Simple joys 🥰
I can now fully focus on holidays -well theirs as I’m working (getting close to 10 years w/o a full week off but hopefully it will be a thing again in, like, months)
Only 240 years of French History to go before the 31st!

The only way that would work is if said investors did not speak English, tho in that case, they can't understand the speech.
(Yeah I do know disaster capitalists will indeed get opportunities from the ashes while getting the laws curbed as they like to fit their needs)
Do I have the strenght?
I mean, translating is my jon, but it's late...
(High-skilled: "Well we kicked out most of our low-skilled key workers and the British ones are home with Covid, so technically, those left are high-skilled")
(Low-tax: "Have you heard about our tax havens?")

When the world wreck’s bite seems to much to bear I find music a much more efficient bandage than movies or even books -captures and lifts my soul better I guess
Here’s a soul bandage for you tonight
It’s not exactly happy music but f**k is it beautiful
If you’re more in ”I need to express my rage” mode rather than nostalgia may I advise this
Feel free to reply to this with not-that-much-heard-of music
It’s my favourite style
A little more soul bandage

Hello @Steam
My brother lost access to his account when he refused to (immediately) send $377 to one of your so-called support employee? (The one w/the certificate w/a blurred name)
He sent a ticket but is now asked extra info he can’t send as ”ticket has been created already”🤦‍♀️
Could you provide an email address owned by a human who could sort this mess? (DM is fine)
My brother is a good customer spending all the little extra money he has on your service.
He’s also (mentally) disabled and only speaks Google trad English.
The whole thing is extremely distressing for him @Steam
will you please fix it fast?
