Whenever you see something beautiful (e.g. a well cared for public space, an art gallery, or a flowerbed at a train station) or participate in something special (e.g. a community fair or show) — you almost certianly have a volunteer to thank for it.

"I have not myself ordered dessert since 2004" is one of the saddest lines I've ever read in an opinion piece
Pudding is for fat people and babies, so why is it making a restaurant comeback with the young?

I assume "up to £1000" means the fine will be based on the quality of music being played
Mozart - £50
Abba - £100
Spice Girls - £250
Ed Sheeran - £750
K Pop Demon Hunters - £1000

After the Green Party's "Zionism is Racism" vote, the Leader of Haringey Council, which is controlled by the Greens, wrote to various Synagogues in the borough to "reassure" them.
I want to show you Highgate Synagogue's reply. I believe it is worth reading in its entirety.

Hugely significant statement has just been issued from the Church of England Interfaith Advisors, raising acute concerns about antisemitism in the UK, and the language and public narrative that fuels it. They vitally call for the Church, political leaders and wider society to take concrete action in order to counter this virulent tide of antisemitism. Please read and circulate widely- this is an important call from church leaders most experienced in interfaith 👇

I’m glad they’ve shown us that they are. The question is, will anyone on the left fight this Jew hate?

Yes, and absolutely yes!
Church bulletins, informational materials, social media posts, etc.
I feel pretty strongly about this; there's no need to be using AI for any of the above!
Our witness should be one of value of human creativity (even if it's MS Paint or something 😅)

Can you imagine grapes so big that two people had to carry one bunch?! Our SuperZoners can! Yesterday we learnt about the spies who went into the promised land, and brought back news of tall and strong people, and grapes so big that each bunch had to be carried by two people!🍇💪

I've seen a few (and one significant) examples of mass AI translation embraced by Christians online in recent days. While AI can be a helpful tool, and (for better or worse) has its place in the modern world, I'm uncomfortable with the enthusiasm for these kinds of resources. 1/
