In light of COVID-19 we’ve decided that it’s best for now to postpone this event. Hopefully see you all at the rearranged date in the not-too-distant future!

Important: around 20% of people don't return their postal vote. If you have missed the deadline or just forgotten, don’t worry. You can still complete the form & take it (in the envelope supplied) to the polling station by 10pm tonight. Your vote will still count. #GE2019

Now there is a big chance of an election bang on the end of term, this information is more important than ever: STUDENTS can REGISTER to vote BOTH at home AND at university, then CHOOSE where to vote at the LAST MINUTE. REGISTER TO VOTE NOW.
STUDENTS! YOU ARE ALLOWED TO REGISTER TWICE: once at home, AND once at your uni address. You are allowed to vote in BOTH places in LOCAL elections. You are allowed to vote in ONE place in NATIONAL elections, but you can CHOOSE WHICH at the last minute. gov.uk/register-to-vote

ok twitter, so I filed a Public Records Act request for rejected vanity plates in CA. I spent *days* combing through the documents, which show the applicant's intended meaning and the DMV's comments. My abs still hurt. Bonus plates in thread. @LAmag lamag.com/citythinkblog/reje…

This is why the petition website keeps crashing. Will now just "treat" myself to opening the website every hour or so. Like a tea-break.

So over the last few months kids keep coming into the library asking if we have any books about this thing FORTNITE. We don't and I'd never heard of it so I tried asking what it was.
