My friend @Lazarou
Made a very profound point upon noticing whom the Labour Party seems to be most attacking: the Green Party, that is
He said, "The Labour Party are more concerned about another left wing party, then they are about a racist party."
Once you see this, you can never unsee this.
Gosh!
@ologies.bsky.social yes, outside the USA we all know he's lying.
At the new ProPublica Narrated, you can listen to narrated versions of our important new investigations alongside the most compelling journalism from the ProPublica archives.
Give it a listen here:
"One day with a million people in the streets, that's a holiday; that's not a campaign. What you need is to have people in the streets every weekend for months on end. Despite rain, despite snow. That's how they showed their resolve to stand against the government.”

Seit über 25 Jahren bin ich beruflich im Marketing tätig. Aber selten habe ich so kreatives und so kraftvolles Guerilla-Marketing gesehen, wie es einige Davoser:innen gestern inszeniert haben. Und selten hat eine derart knappe Headline alles gesagt, was es zu sagen gibt.
@ewen i feel ya. News has been turned off now for a couple months and is likely to stay that way for a long while. Im also unsubscribing from everything that contributes to the dark side.
We are about to get a "post-American internet," because we are entering a post-American *era* and a post-American *world*. Some of that is Trump's doing, and some of that is down to his predecessors.

@PicsbyMargot i think i like the cropped one more. The pollarding stands out more! Nice pictures!
@eliocamp i use the bom weekly then daily to plan my work (outdoors). I used to be very successful using it in avoiding and working around the worst weather. ( >6mm rain and id be washed out).
About a year ago they adjusted their prediction reporting, and it became useless to me. I’ve now worked right through days that predicted 10-20mm rain without seeing a drop.
There was no outcry at all.
All the keyboard warriors are just complaining about a layout change but dont seem to need the data to be accurate or anything.
@dallo this is no surprise. The coalition has ignored their concerns and focused solely on the dying out boomers. They have no grassroots support from a generation who are likely to need a social welfare system and renter protections.
I would think they’re likely to move Green as much as left.
@jimfrost damn. I thought they were after mine exclusively. Lol.

@ewen if you look at who the video was talking to, it wasn’t us photographers but the graphic designers who are already targeted by canva. The sweetener at the end for existing licensees - FONTS!
So basically the affinity purchase by canva is developing their existing offerings for design and we get to ride along with it.
Want the advanced ai selection tools, then subscribe.
At least thats my take.
@geoff_eg This is interesting to me. I've just repurposed an old laptop to Linux Mint, and really Affinity 2.0 is the big sticking point to moving across properly for a test. I'd be keen to know of any guides or rough steps to setting up Mint/Winboat/Affinity if you think its secure and worthwhile. I'm a total linux newbie...
@twizzt affinity 2 user, which also doesn’t catalogue. Have just adopted digikam, which is performing well with cataloguing. Only complaint is with photos on the NAS refreshing the index is a bit slow.
@WayneMoranPhotography Thanks for posting your map! I hope that one day it will be invaluable to me! Looking forward to your updates on the trip!
