THE BUDGET is right
Not worth the fight
That hand that feeds thou shalt not bite
Out of mind, out of sight
Eyes on the trophy
More tea and coffee
Are you done yet…?
Sir, yes, sir!

Summary: Richard Stallman’s dignity is defended, at last, by Microsoft
In recent months a group has started a petition on GitHub to pressure the Free Software Foundation to not reinstate its founder, Richard Stallman, as chair. The petition has been widely recognised as being based on false accusations against Mr Stallman (e.g. evidence of defamation by cyberbullies), resulting in Microsoft, owner of GitHub, deciding to close down the petition’s GitHub account, citing “cyberbullying” as the reason. Microsoft issued a statement explaining that it will not tolerate its platform being used for bullying and wanted to protect Mr Stallman’s human rights. █

Significant normality just 15 minutes away now…
THE SNOW is falling
The pacifying film is rolling
Economies falling
Businesses stalling
Have an enlarged dinner
Just a couple or two
COVID will spread
But no employer you can sue
Stay at home, dirty plebs
Due to our lack of curbs
Oh, and install the "app"… we must know where you are and who you meet! █
