The Department for Health and Social Care (DHSC), which was responsible for purchasing and delivering Covid PPE, said it was unable to provide a statement due to the pre-election period
Cowards.
Hindsight is 20/20 and they couldn’t have known how long the pandemic was going to last, but yeesh what a waste.
One person said they’d spoken with colleagues who had chosen to go hybrid, and those colleagues reported doing work in mostly empty offices punctuated with video calls with people who were in other mostly empty offices.
This is the crux of it. All of our meetings now are virtual. Full stop. Companies had to adapt during COVID and to do that they got things like teams and SharePoints going. Now these tools are still in place and the genie is out of the bottle. No going back
True, but like Watchtower by Hendrix, the covering artist to the original’s lunch money, and now that song is his.
Horrific.
The letter from the MIA is extremely well written, and conveys a lot of humanity and sympathy. I’m moved.
What are the YT alternatives? I use it by default and I’m to exhausted to look for another landing place
Right, I forgot about the children huddling in a hospital in Gaza as bombs drop around them…
Humans were a mistake.
Oh hey, remember how terrible we are to animals?
Imagine some jackass coming up and blasting your bestie with a .45-70. RIP, Bob.
Someone told me recently, that no good thoughts happen after 8 pm. I took note of this and it is surprisingly accurate. After 8:00 I find myself very edgy, and prone to negative thinking/anxiety.
Earth sea. I haven’t read it yet, but it’s at the top of my list
Their algorithm is already abrasive enough. I routinely find myself following people I did not elect to follow. Throw some stupid adds in there, to just make it worse…
LOCK HIM UP! LOCK HIM UP!
This is… Horrifically accurate.
Long sigh… I GUESS we should apologize to the First Nations
It was just an accident, bro! We were aiming for that hospital full of children
The year is 1325. Some Aztecs see a snake getting eaten by an eagle out on an island of a vast lake. They take this as a sign from the gods that they should build their city here.
2025: this once vast lake is now a metropolis with routine water shortages
Very well written and thoughtful response. This is a point I was going to make but was too tired to.
They can’t compromise, and that shoots the entire movement in the foot
Honestly, I’m a large proponent of conversation and environmentalism. Hell, I sit on a land trust board, and have a very strong technical background in checks notes environmental science.
The thing I keep rolling my eyes at with Greenpeace is their seemingly complete lack of regard for science, like you point out. How can anyone take these guys seriously when most of what they do are stunts.
I doubt anyone would listen even if they did have the technical expertise they need, because support for environmental issues is paltry to begin with. However, it would give them a leg to stand on.
This.
Bubble gut and Jorts isn’t exactly a good look.
Oh it’s a look, alright but not a good one.
