The mum needs to be exposed and doorstepped by the Mail.

There've already been climate refugees from parts of northern california. The lengthening of the fire season means the air has too many soot particles for most of the year. https://emeraldreview.com/2024/01/climate-migration-in-california/

Don't miss this telly gold. Happening now. U & Yesterday is showing repeats of Antiques Roadshow. The expert and the owner are both wearing red trousers.

Eric Trump has just explained the purpose of crypto. He said his family had embraced it because some banks stopped doing business with them after Jan. 6. https://www.nytimes.com/2024/12/10/us/politics/eric-trump-cryptocurrency-conference.html?smtyp=cur&smid=tw-nytimes

Oh dear. 3rd hand, 80% below list, made to measure for someone else?

It's surprising there hasn't been a CEO target before. Yet another example of Americans getting everything wrong, shooting children rather than billionaire parasites. Bezos would be quite a trophy. He spends $25m or something on security.

What about Parlee?

Breaking Luigi news. He's getting emotional, shouting at TV crews “It’s completely out of touch and is an insult to the American people and their lived experience!”

That would cause hyperinflation of the throbbing vein on one's forehead. So I put him on ignore a while back.

Best hairdresser I've ever been to is down your way. 118 Railton Rd. Not the cheapest but I only go once a year. The shagginess of it requires lots of her time so I feel guilty for undermining her business model. £55 or 60 total. She's a proper craftsperson. Called Eva. One chair.

What consequences might this have? More inflation? It's already 8.5%.

Evans says he was radicalised by pain. But he doesn't mention that a consequence of the pain is an end to his sex life. Other sources say this affected him deeply. We don't yet know the details, but if it's a permanent handicap perhaps he's an affluent chad who's been forced to live as an attractive incel. Could be a good hook for the media. Maybe they'll find a girl/boy who broke his heart.

I also wonder whether his empathy with the poor is not because he can't afford healthcare, but because his back surgery was not successful. Perhaps his back isn't fixable even with unlimited funds from his family. He's in pain and deprived of a love life, just like someone who can't afford surgery. He's spent a lot of time reading about back pain and in back pain chatrooms. He can suddenly see the point of view of people who aren't from a rich family.

Such a disappointing revolution. If we'd known that the lookalike contest was going to be the highlight we could have appreciated it more fully.

I put it in the News thread. Life imitating art. https://www.lfgss.com/comments/17605406/

Plus there was a lookalike contest the other day https://x.com/taliaotg/status/1865462468954161214

Mine was put on it because she got UTIs from stress. There was a feral cat, probably her brother, which stressed her out by wanting to be friends. He would wait outside the door and spray. He was lovely but she was paranoid about other cats coming in and stealing her food. So I caught him and got him rehomed by a cat rescue charity.

Some cats like fountains, some don't. Might as well try it.

Has the vet put him on the special wet food for urinary care? Mine was on that for the whole time.

Assad has gone. It's not confirmed where to. Damascus airport and the state TV station are under rebel control. His regime still controls Latakia and Tartus in a small coastal strip. There was a report that the state's reserves of foreign currency and gold were moved to Latakia a few days ago.

Sednaya prison near Damascus, the main slaughterhouse where Assad's enemies were 'disappeared', has been surrounded. The guards have surrendered and prisoners are leaving. Syrians are saying this is bigger than the fall of the Berlin wall. A more important goal than seizing the presidential palace.

Finding the guy might take a while.

Plucky Brits may also have played a role by designing the gun. It hasn't been found but from the CCTV the cops think it might be a B&T Station Six 9. Which is a modern Swiss copy of the Welrod, which was an almost silent assassin's pistol developed by the SOE for its agents in WW2.

The SOE secret weapons boffins were based near Welwyn and gave many of their designs a code name beginning with Wel. There was the Welgun, Welbum, Welbike, Welfreighter and Welman. (Plus the Normgun, named after a bloke called Norman.)

Solving the crime by studying grainy security camera pics which have been colourised and enhanced makes as much sense as saying the twin towers were demolished by the CIA because you watched the video of them collapsing.

I got stuck in Damascus for one night in the 80s because of a cancelled flight. Security checks involved being jostled by short angry men, puffed up in their tight shirts, who turned out my gf's bags and held up her underwear, tampons etc for the amusement of those present.
