In August 1987 sixteen PPL employees, including Chris Lane, PPL's national manager of mergers and acquisitions, Bruce Fraser, national manager, group services, and Tom Booker left en masse to establish their own merchant bank, Campbell Capital Ltd, with offices in Sydney, Melbourne and Brisbane and financial backing from Ariadne auditor Ltd.

Who do you think Hillary Clinton should have chosen as her running mate in 2016?

Of the people reportedly on her shortlist, I thought she should have chosen Cory Booker or Tom Perez. Tim Kaine seemed safe and he was certainly qualified, but I never thought he was a good choice and definitely wasn't excited by his nomination. Senator Booker would have been a great pick and a spirited campaigner. Perez wouldn't have been as good on the campaign trail, but he would have been an interesting balance to the ticket.

Outside of her shortlist, I thought she should have picked Admiral William McRaven. At the time I think I was already mentioning my hope that Admiral McRaven actually run for President. I still think he should run for President.

So, while we're all trying to fight one of the other terrible "think of the children" bills trying to ram its way through Congress, KOSA, we should also be talking about The EARN IT Act.

Long story short, it's basically yet another surveilance bill using a "protect the children" bill, as a hideous meat-suit, putting restrictions on sites that'll make them even more vicious towards NSFW content, creating a climate where using a VPN might be a crime, and they'll be creating a federal committee to decide how best to spy on us!

Long story long, well, the Linktree is right here.

Beyond the stuff in the Linktree, I urge you to directly contact your congresspeoples and tell them to kill this bill, especially if they're on the Judiciary Committee, which is currently marking up this bill.

The members of the committee are:

Dick Durbin, Illinois, Chairman

Dianne Feinstein, California

Sheldon Whitehouse, Rhode Island

Amy Klobuchar, Minnesota

Chris Coons, Delaware

Richard Blumenthal, Connecticut

Mazie Hirono, Hawaii

Cory Booker, New Jersey

Alex Padilla, California

Jon Ossoff, Georgia

Peter Welch, Vermont

Lindsey Graham, South Carolina, Ranking Member (Ugh)

Chuck Grassley, Iowa

John Cornyn, Texas

Mike Lee, Utah

Ted Cruz, Texas (Double-ugh)

Josh Hawley, Missouri

Tom Cotton, Arkansas

John Kennedy, Louisiana

Thom Tillis, North Carolina

Marsha Blackburn, Tennessee (she cosponsored the bill, so probably not)

So yeah, do what you can, even if it's just boosting this terrible, terrible danger we need to thwart.

And, I will add, as with my previous KOSA poster, this poster is officially, for the sake of spreading it, under a CC0 license.

Feel free to spread it, remix it, add links to the bottom, edit it to be about the other bad internet bills they’re pushing, use it as a meme format, do what you will but for gods’ sake get the word out!

...And yes, for the record I was thinking of the Judas Priest song when I came up with the tagline for this one.

Rahu Nakshatras And Their Partners 🩵

*Disclaimer- These are just observations you may not think this applies to you or the people you know and that’s ok✨ please be kind and if you don’t agree or like this post just ignore it.

Rahuvians and their partners are my unproblematic couple, they really aren't into drama or negativity surrounding their relationship. Rahu nakshatras are private people, you don’t really know anything about their relationship. They could also not be into too much PDA. They may rarely post their significant other on social media not because they are ashamed but because they feel a need to protect their relationship from outside influences or comments. I would say they should be careful of being too private because it can come off like they are keeping their person a secret even if that isn't the case. They can catch people off guard when telling them they are married or dating because they keep their personal lives to themselves. I notice that even when in a relationship, Rahu nakshatras are seen as individuals not really tied to the person they are dating. Overall, Rahuvians love looks so soft and mellow and I love that for them!

how do the pokeMen play animal crossing? what are their islands like? Who are their favorite NPCs/villagers? How does Cyrus feel about Cyrus??

Ingo spends three years making the perfect town of harmony and joy and using as many train-themed items as he can. His home is a few rooms based around his job. One is a train car from the subway, another is his office, the nap room, a platform. The last two he makes are a room of train items and his bedroom. His unique-ness for decorating is sure to impress. He takes his job as resident representative seriously and makes a proper 5-Star island that gets rave reviews somewhere online. There is a heated debate if this was actually made by Ingo or some intense fan. He never bothers getting in on it.

Emmet lacks the patience for such a game but plays with Ingo because he asks. He lives in Ingo's town and basically does nothing. Though, he does appreciate his brother's love for his virtual town.

Both Emmet and Ingo love Porter. They are both saddened by the lack of trains in New Horizons. They are enchanted by his brother, who is a train engineer, too. They both decide they would be monkeys in the Animal Crossing world because train connections. They also like Timmy and Tommy for the obvious reasons. Champ is their favourite villager.

Cyrus is not big into it. There is little of interest in for him, so he would only play if forced by someone around him. (For example, his partner.) He intends to somehow make his perfect world in the game. He fails. He will deny it when asked, but he quite enjoys Celeste. Space man truly loves space. He likes the robot villagers in concept. Cyrus is horrified by whom he shares a name with. Discussed more here.

Somehow, some way, Archie gets really into Animal Crossing. He is seen enjoying the tropical aesthetics of the game and laughing as he fishes. His dedication is sweet, but the town has no theme outside of making Lilycove and filling it with various fish. His home is themed with the ocean, of course. A room for being a beach, all the mermaid furniture somehow, and a collection of his favourite fish. He only wishes there was more water in the game. His favourite NPC is Kapp'n, naturally. He loves the boat rides and his little songs. Marina is his favourite villager, strangely.

Nanu secretly adores the game and probably plays it under the guise of helping Acerola with her town. Peaceful island life is nicer virtually... No real human interaction, and he gets to laze around peacefully. He is working on recreating Ula'Ula. Most of his villagers are cats, but there is one conspicuous bull villager. Rodeo. If you ask him, he'll just shrug and say he couldn't get him to move out to get another cat. The truth? Tapu Bulu. A shock it may be, but he likes Copper more than Booker. He says that he reminds him of someone. His favourite villager is Punchy for mysterious unknown reasons.

Maxie gets into Animal Crossing solely to spite Archie and make a better town than him. Which he succeeds at! His town is five-stars, unlike that water-obsessed fool's three-star island! He has a large orchard that he cares for dutifully and a farm that makes him steady income! His home is also modern and chic and fully paid off. He makes Archie visit his town and show off to him. Archie is unmoved. Maxie likes Tom Nook. Why? Real estate. He likes Elmer as a villager because his colours make him think of Camerupt.

N deeply enjoys Animal Crossing after he is introduced to it and works tirelessly to make a happy island. His ideals for the real world blossom in living happily among pokemon/animals. He also loves making various places in real life on his island. The Nimbasa Amusement Park is most notable. He will mumble to himself about the formulas involved and seen in a daze while playing. His favourite NPC is Harvey. He doesn't have a favourite villager – He loves them all.

Lear will play Animal Crossing at the behest of others. He will they grow frustrated they do not view him as their king, and he has to do all the hard work. He does not play for long. His favourite NPC was Isabelle since she seems so nice and polite. He has no favourite villager. None of them bowed to him.

2, 3, 13 >:)

book asks thank you for playing!!

2. Did you reread anything? What?

yes i love to reread revisit regnaw!! this year i reread days without end by sebastian barry, priestdaddy by patricia lockwood, the secret history, the remains of the day, beloved, and fellowship of the ring. secret history and priestdaddy i reread ~yearly and i am actually overdue for my yearly reread of lincoln in the bardo as well. of course i recommend all these books wholeheartedly and i especially recommend reading them twice

3. What were your top five books of the year?

limiting myself to fiction only so i don’t go nuts, and in no particular order:

an artist of the floating world by kazuo ishiguro

i am now only one book away from becoming a kazuo completionist, i love you my best friend nobel laureate sir kazuo, you are so good at writing books that make the reader distrust you and your characters and the world and their own perceptions

the house of mirth by edith wharton

a mean harsh crystal clear little puzzlebox that i swallowed whole. very good at elaborating social structures that are not tangible but are still very very real and meaningful to the characters

pale fire by vladimir nabokov

i like books that feel like playing a game with the author, and vladdy nabs always makes it clear that HE is the one playing with YOU and he is going to GET you and then he DOES and it RULES

giovanni’s room by james baldwin

reading this felt like getting hit with a baseball bat 72 times. probably the most truly Romantic book ive ever read, in whichever sense of the word

prophet song by paul lynch

look, i read new releases too! everybody clap for me for liking a book that came out in the 21st century! this was a really hashtag topical, booker prize-y read and i was very very pleasantly surprised by how successfully it pulled that off. made my skin crawl.

looking for a throughline here these books are all about power and constraint and self-justification, and i think also they are all books where the author is entering into a little bit of an adversarial relationship with the reader and trying to keep them off-kilter. i like what i like!!

13. What were your least favorite books of the year?

and now onto what i HATE. i will say typically i do not finish books im not enthused about, but these are books that i hated AND finished.

the vaster wilds by lauren groff

i posted my review at the time but worth restating that beloved bestselling literary phenom lauren groff is a hack and my enemy. i did this to myself tho this was a hate read just for the joy of hating. i took notes.

a certain hunger by didn’t write down the authors name and dont care to google it

read for my book club which is just me and two beloved childhood friends, we are batting like .001 on picking good books that we all like. this book was dumb as hell and thinks it’s quite smart, which is very sad.

skinny legs and all by tom robbins

another book club book. cant quite put a finger on why this book rubbed me the wrong way bc other book club members liked it and it has the elements of a book id usually love (exuberant prose! a bunch of really wacky characters! unconventional narrators!) but this book has something repulsive at its core actually i think?

brideshead revisited by evelyn waugh

probably controversial but i got to the end and i was like? that’s it? that’s what everybody’s so excited about? i know somebody who named their DOG after this book
