It genuinely surprises me that no banking / lending institution has ever used the song Alone in an ad. (๐ŸŽถ โ€œHow do I get you a loanโ€ฆโ€ ๐ŸŽถ)

PSA: Teachers hate state testing as much as the students. Please donโ€™t yell at us. Itโ€™s just another part of education that is out of our control.

Someone hacked my Twitter account, changed the email and password and then deleted my account. Soโ€ฆthanks?

@skrishna @ScottSoCal agreed - their story, with Adira too, I feel has been presented sensitively and yet with normality.

As with your original post - which has moved me incredibly too - representation matters, to all :-)

As an older white straight male growing up in the north of of England, seeing anything outside that monoculture was important and vital, I've seen what happens to people who don't let these things in...

When I saw this scene, I announced that it was the gayest Star Trek moment - gayer than Jadzia Dax's kiss.

The banks didn't fail because of wokeism- they failed because of Trumpism. Trump and GOP repealed regulations that would have 100% prevented the bank collapse. Once again Dems cleaning up the GOP's mess

Iโ€™ve heard it said that phishers leave in bad grammar or errors to help limit potential victims to people who are impaired or not paying attention. But todayโ€™s email demanding payment from โ€œBit-Defederยฎ Secuirtyโ€ took that a bit far.

โ€œLiberal, liberal, liberal.โ€ I remember when Ronald Reagan used the term as a slur during a speech in 1988. That dreaded โ€œLโ€ word. Many Americans lump โ€œliberalโ€ together with the words โ€œbleeding heartโ€ and incorrectly believe it means people who are just plain soft on things like spending and crime.

But true liberal values are actually what hold our democracy together and the loss of them threatens our future as a democratic republic. Todayโ€™s piece looks at the state of Florida under Governor Ron DeSantis and how it is a prime example of the illiberal threat to our system.

Or perhaps, just perhaps, the nationโ€™s supposedly leading business newspaper would have better seen these failures coming if they had focused more on market, economic, and business conditions and less on obsessively rooting out the woke menace of women, people of color, LGBTQ people, and veterans(!) gaining token admission to the corridors of power and wealth.

I have a task in my notebook saying "Text Andrea" which I wrote as soon as I woke up and arranged my tasks. I have no idea who this is. I looked over my emails and messages everywhere, customers, supporters, no sign of an Andrea I would need to text today. So I asked my partner and he said "I met an Andrea in my dream", so we realised, it's one of those times that our dreams overlap, it happens a lot, and my mind when I just woke up definitely knew about Andrea. But who the fuck is Andrea now?
