Smeagle would approve. A new rescue is filling his dog bed, playing with his toys and drinking from his bowl. Meet Buddy. And he’s defo a dog. Though I can understand any confusion.

🆘️ On Euthanasia list at BARC, Houston for Tuesday, 11/10/26. Deadline at 5pm CDT 🆘️ ID #A2106447 🆘️ RESCUE ONLY 🆘️ 📌 PLEDGE INFORMATION 📌 🆘️ Please do not honor pledges until a freedom picture is added to ensure pledges are going to the rescue that tagged. We will be putting the dog name and rescue name on the freedom picture. 🆘️ 🆘️Rescue only (medical)🆘️ 🐾 Meet 8 month old puppy RANDY ID #A2106447 Age: 8 months Sex: Male Breed: Beagle Mix Color: Brown/White Weight: 19.6 lbs Intake Date: 11/7/2026 Status: Rescue only (medical) Randy came in with his sister (ID #A2106448) who is still at Barc but not on the euthanasia list yet. ⸻ 🩺 MEDICAL NOTES * Paraphimosis: Randy arrived with his penis exposed and unable to retract into its sheath. Veterinary staff sedated him, flushed and lubricated the area, and successfully repositioned it. * The condition recurred on 11/8, requiring continued veterinary monitoring. * Prescribed Clavamox, carprofen (Rimadyl), and gabapentin for infection prevention and pain management. * 11/9 Update: His penis was no longer protruding during the morning examination. Continued monitoring is important to ensure the condition does not recur. * Heartworm negative. ⸻ 🐾 BEHAVIOR NOTES Poor Randy is understandably frightened. He was found cowering at the back of his kennel and initially hesitated to walk on leash. But when staff spoke gently and offered treats, his little tail began to wag! He slowly gained enough confidence to walk outside after being carried through the doorway. Returning to the kennel was difficult, and he thrashed when he felt leash tension. Randy needs a patient, gentle handler who can help him feel safe. ⸻ 💌 BARC CONTACT INFORMATION ALL HOLDS MUST BE IN WRITING. DO NOT CALL. 📧 [email protected] 📧 [email protected] 📧 [email protected] Include Randy’s seven-digit ID #A2106447 in all emails. 🏡 Foster Application: houstontx.gov/barc/foster_a_… 📍 BARC Animal Shelter 3200 Carr St., Houston, TX 77026 ⸻ 🙏 PLEASE SAVE BABY RANDY! Eight months old. Just 19 pounds. Frightened, injured, and desperately needing someone to care. Randy has barely begun his life, and he deserves so much more than a shelter kennel and an uncertain future. Please, rescue groups, step forward for this vulnerable puppy! That tiny tail wag is a reminder that Randy wants to trust. He just needs someone to show him that he’s finally safe. PLEASE DON’T LET RANDY’S STORY END BEFORE IT HAS EVEN BEGUN!

HEARTBREAKING 💔 Until recently, 13-year-old Buster was living on the streets with his owner. He’s blind, and he needs a place to call home. Buster came into our care after his owner made the difficult decision to surrender him. They wanted the best for him. Now we’re asking for your help to find him a safe place to settle. Buster has the softest fur and the sweetest personality. He’s super friendly with people and other dogs. Because he’s blind, he sometimes bumps into things as he finds his way around. We’ll provide a halo for him to wear to help him navigate his new surroundings. Could you give Buster a permanent home? Or, if you’re in Essex or London, could you foster him until March 2027? Please email [email protected] with BUSTER in the subject line. If you can’t offer Buster a sofa, please share his photos. A share could put him in front of the person who can. 🐾

Super injunctions should be abolished. The rich & famous should not be able to buy silence. How many household names have disturbing allegations against them that we don’t know ? I suspect quite a few.

A huge unreported issue is graduate unemployment. Employers are slashing their graduate schemes (some by c90%). I spoke to the parent of a lad who had a first in Maths and a PhD (both from good unis) and can't find anything. No political party is facing this.

It also says something about how in the lengthy creative and managerial process it takes to put out such a product, no one in a position of authority, it seems, was able or willing to question if it was good for the brand.

It's a complete mystery how this has happened
British workers have become more disengaged from their jobs in the past decade, according to data that also shows job satisfaction has plunged to its lowest level in the survey’s 35-year history ft.trib.al/EPjMBj3

Such a brilliant reminder from Sebastian of West Hampstead's extraordinary history. Surely Tower Mansions, with former residents, Lemmy, Steve Strange, Wilson Johnson + more,deserves recognition on its own? Quite some roll call from one building! #WestHampstead #MusicHistory

Nothing in the Budget for Plan 2 student loans. Not a word. My balance is £51,726.40. It will increase every month until April 2046. Plan 2 takes 9% of everything I earn above £29,385. That’s £1,668 a year. £139 a month. Interest on my loan is 6%. That’s the cap. Without it, I’d be on 6.8%. And from April 2027 the repayment threshold is frozen for three years. So every pay rise I get, more of it goes to the Student Loans Company. The Education Secretary called the interest ‘egregious’ in July. MPs said ministers had a ‘moral obligation’ to act at this Budget. Today: £100 energy payments, cheaper food tariffs, business rates cuts. For graduates: nothing.

The electorate aren’t goldfish. Our memories are long enough to recall June 2024, when you declared that trans-identified men with penises should be able to use women’s public bathrooms. It took a Supreme Court ruling to force you to uphold women’s rights, and now you pose as our bold champion? Please.
The time for talk has long passed. This government is putting its money where its mouth is when it comes to supporting women and girls. We'll back practical action to confine misogyny to the history books - in public services, workplaces, and online. theguardian.com/society/2026…

🚨⚡ URGENT APPEAL – WE DESPERATELY NEED AN ELECTRICIAN IN ESSEX! ⚡🚨 We’ve been let down at the very last minute, and we urgently need your help. At Dogs on the Streets, every kennel we open means another dog can have a safe place to stay, a roof over their head, and a chance at a better life. We have TWO NEW KENNEL BLOCKS ready and waiting, but we urgently need a qualified, kind-hearted electrician to install the electricity so we can start utilising these kennels as soon as possible. We are absolutely desperate to get these kennels up and running for the dogs who need us. Every day we wait is another day we cannot make full use of this vital space. As a charity, we rely on the kindness and generosity of others to make these things happen. We simply don't have the resources of a large commercial charity, which is why we're reaching out to our incredible community for help. IS THERE AN ELECTRICIAN OUT THERE WHO COULD HELP US? We are desperately seeking a qualified electrician in the Essex area who would be willing to support our charity by carrying out the installation at a charitable or heavily discounted rate. We know there are some truly wonderful people out there who care about making a difference, and we are hoping that someone might be able to step forward when we need it most. ⚡ Two kennel blocks.
🐾 So many dogs who need us.
❤️ One incredible act of kindness could help us open these facilities much sooner. PLEASE, if you are an electrician, know an electrician, or have a contact who may be able to help, we would be so grateful if you could get in touch. 📧 [email protected] And please SHARE, SHARE, SHARE this appeal. You never know who in your network might be able to help us. #UrgentAppeal #DogsOnTheStreets #EssexElectrician #CharitySupport #HelpUsHelpDogs #CommunityKindness #EveryDogMatters

Serious question but what the actual fuck is going to happen when practically everyone has lost their job to AI, and governments have no tax revenue to invest in vital infrastructure, but millions of unemployed people to support?

Hey so the fact that there are no plans to put a cycle lane directly through Oxford Street is good, actually. It would work if cyclists were capable of stopping at a zebra crossing to let pedestrians get to the other side of the road. That largely isn’t the case.

Car crash interview. £874 million to get about 4,000 people off the street. That’s £190,000 each. Buy them a house. Instead it’s contracts, outreach teams and councils deciding where the cash goes. Rough sleeping rose under Burnham in Manchester. Now we’re nationalising the failure.

Young lads up here can't get a start. Shipyards gone, pits long gone, apprenticeships like gold dust. And Burnham's answer is free movement for 450 million people chasing the same jobs. Train our own fucking kids first.

Going to register my Dad’s death on Monday. I will need to pay £12.50 per copy of the death certificate. We need 6, for bank accounts, private pensions and insurance. That’s £75 before we’ve even started planning the funeral. It’s just wrong.

If anyone knows a London cab (white) with the payment title JOHNSWHITETAXIH can you PLEASE ask him to contact me urgently. I have left my bag in his taxi. He picked up from the Supreme Court at about 6pm and dropped at Bedford row #londontaxi #blackcab #lostproperty

As a pensioner with 2 SMALL private pensions, one of which is now almost non existant, I would be better off with no private pension at all and being on pension cr and warm house discount, along with no council tax. It is disgusting

Working people in Britain can't afford to put their heating on because of politicians who get their heating paid for them by the very people who can't afford to put their heating on! It's time to stop the expenses gravy train.
