It is so lovely to see my Equinox image in today's national press. I don't earn a lot of money from it but it does all count and is also quite exciting if I am honest to see my work published. Glast day of Summer did make me laugh a bit though 😂

Aussie in Pommieland. Disturbed by how gullible Brexit proved Brits to be. Looking to get back into Europe. Loves wearing out first adopted tech. Infosec is my hobby, and healthcare is my career. I know all the shortcuts.
The British right has now descended to the point where 'the England team are not English' is becoming the consensus position
I know bankruptcy. I know adultery. I know paedophilia. I know insider trading. I know misogyny. I know bigotry. I know racism. I know election fraud. I know incitement. Why would you think I don’t know about building codes? I know everything.
"I am the code." So Trump is building the East Wing that does not comply with fire and safety codes, a death trap (that is why the architect resigned from the project). So much for its supposed use to prevent death and destruction. (He does the same thing with ship design, catapult design, etc).

It’s amazing how many Republican senators and senate nominees in close races are suddenly against the Iran War this week after backing it 100% for 7 months. Is there an election coming up soon?
As a criminal lawyer, it is wild to see so many obviously prosecutable offences committed by a single individual over a short period of time with such apparent impunity.
Emma Yeomans@yeomans.bsky.social · 2d agoWorrying scenes in the Channel today, for all interested in asylum policy and maritime tactics. A small boat from Normandy spent more than 30 hours at sea. Those on board now on their 2nd rescue vessel as Border Force forced to play cat and mouse with far-right activists who have their own boat.
I don't think I've ever heard an American president threaten to annihilate another country during a speech to the UN. You must all be so proud.

I want my country back. By that, I mean a country where I would be confident that a thug who livestreamed himself stabbing an RNLI dingy on an active operation would a) Be universally condemned b) Be swiftly arrested, put on trial and if found guilty, face many years in jail. I miss that country.
Piers Morgan "I come across in the most despicable manner imaginable" We all nod. And stop listening. And change channel.
The Stars in Avalon. Photo taken at silly o'clock (😂) this morning on Glastonbury Tor. Lightened a bit for the screen.
Trump's polling at 29% and the Press won't cover him. I think that qualifies him in the LOSER category.
1) Trump comes up with a plan. 2) Plan proves to be detached from reality. 3) Plan fails. 4) Trump deflects blame. 5) Things get worse. 6) Trump comes up with a new plan. 7) New Plan is detached from reality. 8) Plan fails. 9) Things collapse. 10) Trump loses interest. 11) Repeat step 1.
JD Vance walked right into this one. He never saw the follow-up coming. “People who break in and vandalize a building should be prosecuted.” Kaitlan Collins: So about January 6th…
To instill fear, intimidation, and violence against its own citizens. Trump rushes to cement his dictator status. 🤬
Jack Hopkins-The Original@therealjackhopkins.bsky.social · 4d agoWhat does a sniper position at Memorial Circle actually defend against? Not China. Not a submarine. Not a missile. It overlooks a bridge, a traffic circle, and the front door of the National Mall. Those are places where Americans march. www.jackhopkinsnow.com
it's true that knowing who to ask for help is an important skill for a pelican, but I didn't expect to be saying it about the bird. (h/t Lillia)

It's been three days since he said this, but I think it deserves an encore: “If we buy $2 billion worth of bananas from Brazil, we’re actually losing $2 billion. So if we stop eating bananas, we actually save $2 billion.” And this guy is in charge of the world's largest economy.
"The family make the mile and a half journey by car" This is why our roads are so congested and knackered.
Angry People in Local Newspapers@apiln.bsky.social · 3d ago“I think I shouldn’t have to pay a charge for parking on this clearly signposted private road because I’m doing the school run” isn’t the slam-dunk legal argument you think it is, Mr Loud Shirt In A Built-Up Area.
The horror has come to our city: ICE has shot a person in Austin this morning. As the facts emerge, I am demanding a full, independent investigation, immediate release of the body camera footage, and accountability for any ICE officer who broke the law.
