Lobbying is probably a big grey area between legitimately arguing your case and corruption, but the fossil fuel flavour is simply.protrcting their business model at the expense of everyone and everything and should be illegal, full stop.
Yep, denial of reality doesn't alter reality. Decarbonise now.
I remember thinking the same in that passage (am 3 books in now)
Is she arguing for regime change in the US?
put a small bomb next to it, you'll probably find a chest of some sort behind.
Duolingo humorous question. Japanese Kanji spells "Niwa ni wa ni wa niwatori ga ir" which means there are two chickens in the garden. A bit like the English "the train goes from two too two to two two"
This made me chuckle. It's pronounced
"Niwa ni wa ni wa niwatori ga iru"
We've become so immune to the horror of it all, but when it's all laid out in one place it still has the ability to be shocking.
how odd, I'm literally listening to it right now and this appears on my timeline.
It is absolutely gorgeous, thank you so much.
It's almost like policy is being run by a narcissist unable to externalise the world beyond others' respnses to threats.
This, a million times this. Reform should not be handled by the press as anything except an extremist project. If we can get back to demanding an apology from Farage for years of racist bullying too, that would be a start.
MAybe it's just the company she keeps

Probably a bit harsh, there was some social history in there too, feudalism and industrialisation. Maybe it's different now, I was in school in the 80s :D
British may be an exaggeration in English education. I don't think the other home nations merited a mention at all frankly, and the only mentions of Empire were in relation to the loss of the Virginia colonnies.
School was basically 1066, the Tudors (quick gloss, 6 wives and the armada), roundheads good cavaliers bad, defeating Hitler....err that's it, and that's for the ones who didn't spend history classes sticking compasses into peoples heads and telling teacher to go f himself :D
"We called London a war zone and moved to Dubai by mistake"
I too have witnessed the weird blue thing hanging over Wexford
There is nothing she won't stoop to, awful human being.
Or is it the Beirut bomb? By this token expecting bombs to rain down on Downing Street because of the US sailors press ganged into the service of the Royal Navy....
Interesting legal precedent that killing your own people and interfering in the US 2020 election is punishable by death. Very much looking forward to its obvious logical conclusion.
"Defending our corporate people, intetests and value"
Fixed that for him
Many of my favourite albums won't trouble any top 5s. Not everything has to excel, sometimes they just have to hit your listening mood.
Saruman, banging out facile tweets about the inevitability of civil war because too many Buckland immigrants are corrupting the purity of Shire blood, having huffed too much tobacco at 3am. Sad times.
Macro photo of a brown stink bug in face view on a leaf, guarding a tightly-clustered bunch of eggs that are shaped and colored exactly like a full tray of dark beer with foam on top.
Finally, the bug is back with a round of the Guinness.
We haven't yet, 3 episodes in so far. Definitely something to look forward to then.
This got me wondering if Le Carre ever expressed an opinion on the adaption which led me to this lovely thing.
I'm enjoy the new series, but it does feel very un Le Carre like, too much momentum and rather implausible scenarios

WHAT A STUPID TIME TO BE ALIVE.
Hard to argue
Lizardman's Constant
I remember having a chat with a colleague a couple of years ago and he said "they don't make music like they used to".
I chucked some Wolfmother and Greta Van Fleet his way.
He reported back that maybe they do :)
Thinking about it I might chuck some Castle Rat his way
Given current events it's only a matter of time before Kiddie Stare is made by CBS
ha ha, top work!!!
