“The UK has been ranked ***189th*** out of 218 countries for nature, with some 56% species in decline and 15% threatened with extinction… rewilding – large-scale restoration of nature to the point where it can take care of itself – will help reverse this collapse in biodiversity”

"It's not climate change, it's likely just someone not putting out a cigarette proper-" AND WHY IS ALL THE GRASS IN ENGLAND SO DRY THAT A COUPLE OF CARELESS CIGARETTE BUTTS COULD ENGULF THE NATION IN FLAME???

There was an actual tapestry. Inside the original double album cover is an image of the needlepoint I worked on when I wasn't playing or singing. You can see where I stitched the words "thank you" before I gave it to Lou. From "A Natural Woman" Photo by Jim McCrary Courtesy Lou Adler / Ode Records

I don't want a "Smart Fridge" that orders milk for me. I want a fridge that lasts 25 years and doesn't have a privacy policy that allows it to share my late-night snacking habits with my health insurance provider.

When manufacturers first started doing cake box mixes, all you had to add was the liquid element. Then housewives complained they didn't feel like they were baking properly, so the egg & fat elements were removed, in order to appease said housewives. I want to go back to just adding the water!

If you tell Yodel InPosts's virtual assistant you need to speak to a human, it triggers a "let's keep the conversation respectable" response. So we're now at the stage being told by companies AIs that we're being rude for asking to speak to a human...
