Panel 1: Mark Zuckerberg stands on the stage at a Meta all-hands meeting, wearing a little chain and a shirt that says "Cool Dude." "I think our company could use more Masculine Energy," he says into a mic. In the crowd, an employee raises their hand. "Excuse me, Mr. Zuckerberg," the person asks. Panel 2: The person stands up, asking, "By "Masculine Energy," do you mean a mature definition where men in power use their relative strength to protect and uplift those less privileged?" Panel 3: The person continues, "β¦or a more childish definition where men in power are free to be aggressive and harm others without being held accountable?" Panel 4: Zuck stands silent for a beat. Panel 5: "You're all fired," he says.

Energy firms have amassed Β£483 billion in profits since the energy bills crisis began.

There is absolutely no reason to increase energy bills, NONE.
An ethical company would absorb price rises to help consumers.
But we don't have ethical firms.

If that disgusting racist and grifting liar Nigel Farage shouldn't have been on Question Time even once, nevermind 38 times.
Give this a Like, or better yet a RP.
I think something is wrong with @channel4tv.bsky.social
On one hand they say they are behind Disabled people with the Paralympic coverage, last leg & more, then they air dispatches & try to flip the narrative to one of βlazy benefit claimantsβ
Should we try turning it on and off again?
In 1970 the UK and Norway were roughly equal, almost no debt, and owned all their Public Services.
Now the UK owns nothing and has Β£3tn of debt.

The fact that Elon Musk wanted to give Nigel Farage and Reform UK $100m but couldn't because it was illegal should be the death of Reform, who supposedly are all about sovereignty and the 'working' man.
But it won't be because they are all stupid.

@trudieskies.bsky.social any fantasy book that the characters eat bourbons and custard creams is going to be at least a 4 β by the end! Iβm glad I came across your post here that led me to your books. 33% into book 1.
I read on my kindle with mostly KU books. Iβm disabled and reading is my outlet. I read too many books to deal with a library & KU is the most cost effective way for me to read. Iβm on book 82 since I started recording my books at the start of Sept. Added yours to my tbr as I love indie authors.
Yeah I messed up, probably have done it in the replies.
