I'm back on the #FT after letting my subscription expire for a few weeks. They gave me a discount though, but it is still quite expensive.

I did think about signing up for a Revolut Metal account, but that would involve having a Revolut account.

I had better cull some other subs, as they're starting to get out of hand again.

Alexandre Roure of the Computer & Communications Industry Association, whose members include many Big Tech groups, says the debate about blunt market access restrictions for non-EU tech companies “only distracts policymakers from the real task: finally delivering a functioning digital single market with clear, simple and practical rules”.

In private conversations, several Big Tech lobbyists and executives also express confidence in their ability to continue dominating the European market given the paucity of homegrown alternatives and the lack of urgency among many consumers.

Listen to this interview with FT journalist Laura Hughes about the ongoing legacy of lead in the UK. I have no idea how comparable it is here but apart from the ancient infrastructure I doubt it'll be so different.

“So, Chad has a 6.1 birth rate because of subsidised crèches, does it? Shared child-rearing duties and free IVF explain Afghanistan’s 4.8? Finland (1.3) should send a research delegation to Mali (5.6)?”

Welcome back to the guild~

It’s been a long time since I last posted from this series.

And somehow, this exact frame of Natsu, backlit by the moon, shoulders squared, eyes burning with that look, felt like the right one to start again with.

Confident. Determined. Slightly chaotic.

This boy has never once known peace, and we love him for it. 😂🔥

The plot thickens over ,
and ! The has reported today that the was involved also. The metaphorical stench is becoming overwhelming - comparable to that of a traditional tannery in real life - which I experienced in nearly fifteen years ago !

@ChrisMayLA6

The also points out elsewhere that the rally was driven by big players who saw an opportunity for a bargain. Which suggests to me - at any rate - that confidence may be rather less fragile than various commentators and interested parties suggest. may well be seen as less risky than in current circumstances. It may just be enough for the to build in a bit more headroom/resilience into its projections to avoid 'bear raids' on .

Use of rather than to organise.

According to the one reason why was surprised by the extent of the opposition in the to the proposed changes to benefits for people with disabilities was that critics communicated with one another in writing rather than electronically . Monitoring failed as a result. A lesson perhaps for people organising elsewhere?

Like Father like Son. Grifters and liars, both significantly enriched by it as well

'If there’s one family that hasn’t profited off politics, it’s the Trump family,’ president’s son says in an interview’

Even someone this thick can not belie the words that come out of his arse surely? The smirk gives him away.

My bumper sticker version with a hat tip to the #FT: “Stablecoins aren’t inherently dodgy, but fractional reserve banks are, so the latter should be much more tightly regulated than the former”.

A defeat Keir Starmer cannot afford

Retreat on welfare cuts would be an irrecoverable blow to the UK prime minister’s authority

It is just a pity he didn’t consider the consequences then isn’t it - too much time hanging out with #McSweeny and #McFadden and not enough time with his #conscience, common sense, the party or his back benchers.
