Got an email from a company called TalentBurst for an entry-level position whose main requisite is "Have some computer knowledge".
I would have felt insulted but I laughed out loud too much.
If you rely on that company for "talent" acquisition you might want to reconsider. #JustSayin

Reps of Trump’s family have held talks to take a FIN stake in the US arm of crypto exchange Binance, a move that'd put Trump in bus with the firm that pleaded guilty in 2023 to violating anti-#moneylaundering requirements.
At the same time, the founder, Zhao—who served 4 months in prison after pleading guilty to a related charge—has been pushing for the Trump admin to grant him a pardon.

Hello, my name's Grant. I am on disability, as having to deal with schizophrenia for a majority of my life. I’m getting proper care for this, and have managed to stay afloat well for some time. However, my expenses have increased, and I’m battling to stay housed. Any assistance coming in, would be for covering basic living expenses, to maintain my housing, electricity and other utilities. Even with using strategic frugality, and having expenses down as low as possible, there is still a small budget shortfall that will cause me to become un-housed. I’m seeking assistance to help cover the shortfall in the utilities. Due to being disabled, I am not able to find work to help cover this shortfall.

While every system could be improved, and protecting #rights and #freedoms for all is a balancing act, our #HumanRightsAct is a proportionate and well-drafted protection for the fundamental #liberties and #responsibilities of everyone in this country.
The Act guarantees the rights to #FreeSpeech and expression, to life, to #liberty, to security, to privacy, to assembly, and to #FreedomOfReligion or belief. It prohibits torture and guarantees fair trials and the #RuleOfLaw.
Judicial review is an indispensable mechanism for individuals to assert those rights and freedoms against the power of the state." humanrightsact.org.uk/
