Nationalising Thames Water will not in any way threaten the stability of UK financial markets https://www.taxresearch.org.uk/Blog/2024/04/29/nationalising-thames-water-will-not-in-any-way-threaten-the-stability-of-uk-financial-markets/. Treasury sourced rumours that financial markets that nationalising Thames Water might cause massive upset in UK financial markets are deliberate misinformation intended to reinforce the Bank of England's policy of excessive interest rates.
Laws are never equally enforced or applied especially when you have tons of investors money. It is a sad reality. https://bsky.app/profile/lonestartallboi.bsky.social/post/3kiib4qnjt324

I moved from Substack to Ghost, which was fine
I have some long articles and think it would be good to add a table of contents.
Edit the layout to add it in
In order to have a custom layout I need to move from the small tier ($9mo) to the medium tier ($25/mo)
I can't justify that, I don't have enough subscribers. I don't want to install Ghost on my own machine - pain in the ass.
Can't I just pay an extra couple of bucks?
Ridiculous.
And there's no-one to email, of course.

USC went from cancelling their valedictorian’s commencement speech on a made up claim of safety, to canceling all commencement speakers, to canceling commencement altogether—all to prevent the student USC educated on genocide studies from applying her USC education at USC.😑
What a complete failure in leadership.

I really enjoyed 3 Body Problem on Netflix
Remembered I'd read the first volume on Kindle unlimited ages ago but bought the trilogy
The second book is so hard to read. Full of people making speeches explaining things, like the SF written in the 1950s.
Really interesting characters with fascinating internal lives, but those speeches, just not necessary.
Needed a really good edit, but maybe it works in the original literary tradition.
Sticking with it because I want to know what happens.
