Perhaps they could consider setting new targets before axing the old ones?

Yarp.

Got a gull stuck in the decorative grill on the front of our office once. Spent the whole morning shrieking, seemed like he was stuck. Called the council, SPCA, building owner, nobody wanted to help.

Then after a few hours the bastard quite calmly hopped up and flew out.

That gull was a dick. We named him Greg.

100%. Unless the toilet has a dedicated ass-wiping professional I’m not paying to use it.

Education is really important. But you can lift people out of poverty just by straight-up giving them money too. A properly-funded welfare system (or a UBI) would go a long way to truly ending poverty. Childhood poverty is such a strong predictor for anti-social behaviours like gang membership, crime, unemployment, that it blows my mind we don't just funnel money to people to break them out of the inter-generational poverty loop.

Is this satire? If not, good lord.

Similar to what happened with Mastodon. You get waves of people jumping in, and with every wave the engagement grows.

The memes are definitely better on lemmy already, anyway.

NZ Post claim they delivered a parcel to me this morning, but no sign of it anywhere on my property.

Normally I’d just roll my eyes, but this one contains some medication.
