What have you been reading today? Everything counts, from a novel-length fic to the labels on your washing!

Baseline social media stuff (DW/LJ/Twitter). Many children's books (to the toddler). Dabbled in The Economist. Guardian articles, particularly a lengthy article about the way benefits changes since 2010 have affected the poor and middle class. The personal stories were pretty heart-wrenching.

Lots of Highway Code and show me/tell me revision for the UK driving test.

Baseline stuff, plus a couple book reviews, an article on the genesis of Gamergate, and I leafed through a clothing catalog that showed up in the mail. Oh and in bookmarking a bunch of open tabs I had to re-skim each one in search of the right pull-quote.

Mainly blogs and depressing election stuff. And a shopping list and use-by dates.

(And I seem to be lagging a day. But then I am nocturnal at the moment, and the day in question did start on the 28th. Just... quite late.)

Didn't I say? ;) It's the only manifesto I read this year - but then I did feel strongly enough to join the party a few months ago (and shouted at my local rep when they wobbled on the citizen's income!). But it still struck me; I hadn't expected so much *hope*.
