Good
morning afternoon! Woke up to a shiny new thread and title today - lovely way to start off the weekend!
I was kind of hoping for a recap because the last thread just flew by and I have no hopes of catching up. But what you said,
@Palpatine, sums this whole thing up (and it made me laugh too!). The Gruesomes are just so boring! We can just say that they must have been
bleep-ing, and that covers it all!
Won't get into the merits and demerits of a certain person of the fake orange variety, but in my experience they're all different coins of the same global currency. The end goal is money and power, all we can hope for is that even if for PR, they might help make at least a few people's lives a bit easier. Pretty sad, but it is what it is
Yesterday I came across a post by a passionate young wildlife photographer, basically lamenting that the candidates in our ongoing elections aren't talking about climate change (let's not debate this!

) - this summer has been brutal on wildlife - and urging them to vote for the ones who do/push their candidates to talk about it.
Good kid, intelligent, and apparently well-traveled, but seems fairly innocent too. It will be really sad when he realises that the world is full of Sparries who only contribute greenhouse gases every time they open their mouths. There are good, genuine people too, but the Sparries and Smegsies seem to be overrunning the whole place. They're definitely quite loud and incessant
It all just ties in in ways that give me a headache every time I think about it. Sometimes I long for the days when this whole Sussexes drama was just like a saas-bahu soap (in-laws drama) and we could just cringe-laugh at Smegsy's fashion sense.
Oh well.
Typing everything between meetings. 46C at 12.30pm today. Hoping that my airconditioner and I both survive the afternoon (I'm feeling very sick and people's ACs have started catching fire/exploding). I'm using ice packs to keep my laptop cool enough

The weather was supposed to be cooler today

Worried for tomorrow (polling day), if the heatwave persists.
