- Anyone know why London isn't getting stricter measures? most of the country north of Watford Gap is now. I hope it's not economical only.fadein11
- actually it can't be as the stricter measures only seem to be home based.fadein11
- I thought the suggestion was that LDN was going to be 'socially shut down' fairly soon, no?Nairn
- no doubt, my point was London's stats have been similar to elsewhere for a week or so now but measures haven't been put in place yet.fadein11
- I'm not moaning either, just confused why it seems to be happening slower there.fadein11
- whilst Dom is in town, there will be no strict measures. can't break 'em if there are none

https://www.nytimes.…yuekit - It paints a picture of a guy who is basically a trust fund baby, failed again and again in business while portraying himself as rich and successful.yuekit
- If real it show purely legal loop holes taken by everyone and shows... No Russian funds!... But as atlantic did with anon hard to really trustdeathboy
- Plus nytimes not very a epitome of truth these days. Foxx some not others and their ghost editing really makes the queztionabledeathboy
- As far as atlantic. Do u question fiction on account there vs anon?. Woodward's book highly ghti g intelligence similar to assange. And yup all the info on Bidedeathboy

Pic of the Day
I KNEW I should've taken a photo with another bin in frame so you can see the numbers are actually done that way!
I've highlighted the ADT 'security alarm' and, usefully, some fairly impressive dog eggs.
If you squint you might just about make a right-way around 6 in the bins behind, but it's not at all clear
- i've googled a few different ways, yet can't come up with anything of symbolic meaningimbecile
- So you can see in rear view mirroreryx
- 44 + 44 = 88. Heil hitlerzGnash
- It's on at least three sides. I'll check the fourth aspect next bin day.

Because I'm infected with 'ciao' I often use it in emails when I see that the client is Italian, which I did on an enquiry earlier.
Said potential client just phoned up to confirm the order and said her name and I'm profoundly confused because she's clearly 110% Indian, haha. I'm guessing she's married an Italian and her forename is one of those that could as well be Indian as European.
- Lol... I use buongiorno a lot here, but my only connection with Italia is that I own a FiatOBBTKN

Coronavirus
A baffled world is watching as the US is overrun by COVID-19 infections and deaths — with no end in sight.
Political leaders in countries across the world are baffled as the US, once seen as a superpower, struggles to get the coronavirus outbreak under control.
Across 13 countries including Canada, Australia, and Spain, the US has been viewed in the most negative light over the past year, and they are especially critical of the US's handling of the pandemic.
The disapproval goes beyond the pandemic and extends to the actions taken by President Donald Trump.
Some officials told The New York Times that Trump's rhetoric and actions are eroding democracy globally.

I found out that I lost the job I was on, prior to covid, because the company wants to diversify. I was told they hired someone else and didn’t bring me back based ‘solely on the color of their skin’ (direct quote). I have to say, it was a real sword to the chest, especially after being unemployed for six months and blasting through any savings I had.
- What the...! C'mon, tell me this is a joke mateOBBTKN
- Fucking hell, I'm really sorry to hear this. I'm going on ten months unemployed, so I feel your anxiety and pain.Continuity

- I belong to a union (film industry union) I’m going to talk with them tomorrow because my contract was never formally brokenFawnDog
- And the job was a tv show for HBO Max. The people at HBO are the ones who want to diversifyFawnDog
- if you're a freelance, at will, and you were in between assignments, I think they can choose whoever they want for whatever reason they want on the next round.shellie
- also looks like they can't win awards anymore without hitting a diversity quota in front of and behind the Acevedo next year which i, for one, am for.shellie
- Affirmative action is straight up racism.moldero
- I'm sorry its effecting you. Try to think of the people who have been shut out of the industry. I feel like i'm one of them. There's two sides to this coin.shellie
- *Acevedo = scenes.
Sorry for the typos. still in bed typing in the dark.shellie - Shellie, It’s a tricky business to navigate because of the unions, but I am happy to help if you are interested in pursuing the film industryFawnDog
- Thank you Fawn. I have been diligently trying to cross over from advertising &18 yrs of experie means nothing. I have no friends inside to hire me on trust.shellie
- what's the best way to contact you?shellie
- I'd also say affirmative action isn't racism moldy. how would we be able to compete against families that can l pay their unqualified children into opportunity?shellie
- and people tend to hire people they feel they could be friends w/. ppl who look and think like they do. and entire groups are a shut out even if they're qualfieshellie

- Am in film as well, funding is almost non existent if you're a (up and coming) white guy. I know a few who have walked away from the industry.inteliboy

- This is as illegal as it comes. You're in a film industry union which was most likely created ages ago to fight this exact situation. Go to war.CyBrainX
- whether racism or "balancing" it's worth going to war on it because it's your job and you're being unfairly singled out. No doubt some who've encountered theben_
- same will blame minorities for what's happening to them, but it's clearly not as simple as that and clearly Fawn knows this.ben_
