I'm really starting to feel like we're living in a psychological experiment designed to study how far a dystopian society can be pushed before the working class begins reacting violently.

July is a great time of year to capture the sunset over Ely, from Quanea Drove in Stuntney. Here with Ely Cathedral the ‘Ship of the Fens’ with a glowing sky.
Ely, Cambridgeshire 🧡

United Airlines was inundated with calls from people who refused to fly into the Palm Beach airport.

So United is letting you change your destination to Miami or Fort Lauderdale, free of charge.

It would be poetic if Voldemorange's airport ended up deserted.
