Just voted for Labour. Need to get out the Tory MP who was sycophantic in her defence of Boris partying.

Steven Pacey reading Joe Abercrombie's First Law series is outstanding. The books themselves are among my favourites, but Steven makes them even more special. He has different voices (and accents) for the characters and manages to stay consistent with them. His pacing is also excellent.

Yeah, I was quite surprised by this as I'm so used to how capitalism ruins everything.

This is what I read and it was a shock to me that companies not only improved the quality of the cloth when they realised people made garments from sacks, but also strove to provide fashionable designs and wash-off labels. There are some really gorgeous prints on here.

Nowadays, it feels like they would make the original packaging more coarse, then sell the product with nicer packaging at a premium, whilst making sure their logo was indelible.

Thank you for sending me down a delightful little rabbit hole looking into this

Childbirth, but my son's birth, not mine. Lost a lot of blood and had to have meds to slow it, surgery to stop it, and a transfusion to replace it.

I don't think anything would have got me before then, but I'm vaccinated, so who knows?

I thought someone might have already shared this...

It was in the comments on another post a few weeks ago and I ended up watching the whole thing.

There is also a good You're Wrong About podcast episode on this.
