A hen and her chicks had to be a Santa and elf situation. For some reason the chicks look a little cross after putting the elf hats on though, maybe they wanted to be Santa @ZhiZhu

The Jacobean Corsetry building on Virginia Street in Glasgow. Originally built in the late 18th century, this tenement is one of the Virginia Buildings, which were at the heart of the city's tobacco trade. This trade was controlled by Glasgow's Tobacco Lords who made their fortunes trading produce from the slave plantations of the British colonies in North America and the West Indies.

I understand that by the end of the 19th century three quarters of the tobacco sugar and cotton plantations were owned or managed by Scots.
The Scottish Institute of Chartered Accountants was the first in the world, and the Glasgow Chamber of Commerce is the oldest in the world. We took double entry bookkeeping all over the world. That is why shortly after the 1707 Union the English chancellor said β€œwe have catched Scotland and we will not let her go.”

Je n’ai pas besoin que Sandrine Kiberlain, GΓ©rard Jugnot ou d’autres pseudo cΓ©lΓ©britΓ©s, viennent jusque dans mon salon m’expliquer, la larme Γ  l’œil, le teint blafard (30h de direct, Γ§a fatigue !) la voix Γ©touffΓ©e d’émotion et remplie de commisΓ©ration, qu’une mauvaise fΓ©e s’est penchΓ©e sur mon berceau !

The image is a close-up portrait of a person with facial hair and a hat. The person is looking directly at the viewer with a serious expression. They are wearing a red baseball cap with the letters "MAGA" in white capital letters across the front. The person has a dark beard and mustache, and is wearing a gray shirt. Text appears above and below the person's head.

The text above reads: "WHEN YOU LACK THE VOCABULARY TO EXPLAIN JUST HOW STUPID YOU ARE". The text below reads: "WEAR A HAT".

I don't think sharing all the money from everyone with over Β£100m will make anybody feel b much etter off as everything they spend money on will just become a little bit more expensive.

The absence of multimillionaires will not create much more food or much more energy.

But giving all that money to governments will take the power from the multimillionaires and return it to the people.



Overdue stuff done today:
Cleaned my kitchen and removed all the space-blocking boxes I was too lazy to sort and get rid of.

Feels good and MUCH more space available now. Little thing, but big effect. Am proud of myself and thought I'd share :drgn_happy:
