DAVE MATTHEWS: “I don’t want my taxes to pay for masked thugs to roam our streets & terrorize our communities... She was trying to get away. He shot her 3x in the head. Murdered in cold blood. They’re trying to tell us not to believe what we see. FUCK ICE.” (H/T @marcofoster.bsky.social )

Political cartoonists are not fuckin’ around this week. (thread) 1. Pat Bagley

How clean energy could save us trillions As clean energy prices fall, a fast transition to renewable energy is the cheapest option on the table. Experts say it could save us trillions in energy costs alone. www.dw.com/en/fossil-fu...

WHEN YOU'RE THE DUMBEST ONE IN THE ROOM AND NOBODY IS WILLING TO CORRECT YOU

Firstman Liverpool

Ex-Twitter bots out in full force today defending ICE, slamming Starmer, bigging up Trumps approach to Greenland etc. It's a hard read but an indication of what technology can do to destabilise and misinform the population. The same argument holds for left & right though.

…but it won’t pass unless we push it 📣 Email your MP before Wed. Please. It takes seconds to email them and could make the world of difference… Just hit the link below: www.compassioninpolitics.com/write_mp_acc...

I want to see pictures of the World Cup in the USA and see empty stadiums. I want to hear how it was the first World Cup to lose money and they won't be going to a War Criminal's country again. Lets make it happen.

Good morning, Bluesky! Breakfast after storm cleanup. @ Jack's in #Alderney

Really happy to be joining one of our favourite groups, @bobpetesarah.bsky.social at their September Barrowlands show. This is going to be an amazing night. Psyched. We'll be bringing it.

Exciting announcement from Birlinn today - we are proud to be collaborating with them and @agnesowenslitest.bsky.social on centenary plans across 2026 and to bringing Agnes Owens work to a wider audience 💫

GREAT interview with The Twilight Sad. I’m so proud of them ❤️ www.nme.com/news/music/t...

"Janet began to hate the sea. There was so much of it, flowing, counter-flowing, entering other seas, slyly furthering its interests beyond the mind's reckoning; no wonder it could pass itself off as sky; it was infinite, a voracious marine confederacy."

Editorial in the National Catholic Reporter: "The vice president's comments justifying the death of Renee Good are a moral stain on the collective witness of our Catholic faith. His repeated attempts to blame Good for her own death are fundamentally incompatible with the Gospel."

"Paris, the City of Light, is also the City of Death." If you like graveyards, foxes, cats and The Doors then perhaps you will enjoy this feature on historic cemeteries of the French capital – a longer version of the article I wrote for Smithsonian Magazine. smallfinds.substack.com/p/the-parisi...

Nearly 30,000 people have cancelled their World Cup tickets after an innocent woman was shot in the face and Donald Trump called her a terrorist. Don't go to this dangerous hellhole, it might cost you your life.

They want this guy to run for Mayor... 13/9/25, 'Middleton took part in the far-right rally in London. He led the march near Waterloo station alongside Tommy Robinson. In 2013 he was convicted of unlawful wounding of a male police officer and common assault of a female officer.'

Word and meetings are not sufficient. By request, we are deploying a contingent of Heard Island Defense Forces to Greenland to send a simple message. Flippers up and F*%# right Off! -General Thaddeus Snowclaw

Ask your MP to support a ban on lying in politics. Amendments 13–18 to the Hillsborough Law will make it a criminal offence to deliberately mislead the public. Tell your MP to back it today: www.compassioninpolitics.com/the_public_a... #TruthInPolitics #HillsboroughLaw

"When I was a very small child, I had a sense, whereof I know not, that William the Conqueror was the first king of England and that history began in 1066. When I was a slightly less small child, I was delighted to learn that this wasn’t so..." Regarding a surprisingly complicated question

TLDR how it works for those unaware: Various utterly dishonest Rightwing "media" post claims Reform and Farage make without even attempting to directly challenge them, nor adding relevant facts from other sources that dispute their claims. It's then launched around Twatter & often reposted by Musk.

The threat to shut X in the UK is a threat to the whole far right ecosystem. They're going to throw everything at stopping it because they know it would cause them almost irreparable damage. That's not the case for more moderate voices on left and right who have choices..

WSJ investigation: In the past 6 months ICE agents have fired at vehicles 13 times, leading to: * 8 people shot * 5 of which were U.S. citizens * 2 died * no victims drew a weapon The playbook: Agents box in a vehicle, block attempts to flee, then fire www.wsj.com/us-news/vide...

I am going out on a limb here, but got to say, if you are allowing the spread of child abuse images you should be "censored". Or, you know, prosecuted and locked up. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Philadelphia Sheriff Rochelle Bilal warns ICE: "No law enforcement professional wears a mask... Those that come into our communities wearing a mask to commit crime... You getting arrested". "Fake wannabe law enforcement... The criminal in the WH will not be able to keep you from going to jail".

Normalise calling X "X, the child pornography site"

Amazing what someone will do to stop people talking about the Epstein files

Yeah i live here, at least for now it's this stupid🤔...

Historical literacy😂😂😂 have you met the average American? They're to busy attacking an 17 year old at McDonalds because they forgot their sweet and sour sauce! Because obviously that's a true crime against humanity. Serious priorities , you know what I'm sayin🤔...

Food for thought🤔...

Just sayin🤔...

I think I've now also made a judgment about Paul Nurse's character too.

An absolutely disgraceful stance.

Greenland’s five main political parties have rejected Trump’s desire to take control of the country. They say only Greenlanders can decide the island’s future and stressed they want to be Greenlanders, not Americans or Danes, AFP reports.

MTV is closing music channels down. Here's the video they opened with: youtu.be/W8r-tXRLazs?...

#Trump is #Epstein

ICE is claiming that the officer feared that Renee Good was about to seriously injure or kill him at this moment.

I don’t think we should have ceded control quite so quickly and without so much as a fight.
