A very, very, simple reminder....

The President of the United States is a liar.

🎵 Yes, I remember it well… 🎵

Almost everything we argue about is a substitute for the thing we should be arguing about: the immense wealth & power of an oligarchic class, which captures governments, ruins lives and wrecks the living planet. This class redirects our rage at scapegoats. To resist its lies is to resist its power.

Here's a reminder: fruit and vegetables are fruit and vegetables. Canned, frozen, fresh, whatever you can afford, and whatever is easiest for you to consume is ok. Don't let the internet make nutrition complicated. ♡ #nourishyourbody

Cold War Steve fixed it.

The shared excitement over NASA’s recent mission compared to the general indifference to SpaceX missions speaks to the power of something seen as the product of communal human effort rather than just the ego and avarice of one obnoxious dork.

We elected you to Congress to be a check on executive power, not a spectator. You swore an oath to defend the Constitution, not to protect a man who threatens democracy, threatens war, and threatens the future. Stop hiding behind voters. Stop punting responsibility. DO YOUR JOBS.👇

End of the day time for donkeys to go in for treats and rest

We organised an emergency rally with less than 24 hours notice in Margate tonight. Hundreds and hundreds of people on the beach ready to vote for Rob Yates & the Green Party Thursday from 7am-10pm It's so close between the Green Party & Reform - and we're taking them on!

Ministers are reportedly exploring how to cancel dangerous spy-tech firm Palantir's contract to handle NHS data after over 150k people joined me in calling on them to break the contract. Join us - together we can kick out Palantir out of our NHS: you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/st...

Our public services aren’t for a secretive profit-hungry US tech firm. Sign the petition to tell the Government to scrap all contracts with secretive US tech firm Palantir. you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/st...

Witnessing the rise of Nazis in Germany, Hannah Arendt said: “The death of human empathy is one of the earliest and most telling signs of a culture on the verge of descending into barbarism”. Where is UK heading - attacks on minorities; curbs on human rights, millions in poverty,

Spotted in Washington, DC.

So much shit is happening that every day there is less and less talk about the Epstein files. He raped and beat little girls, ffs.

Dear world: DO NOT COME

You need 10 signatures from people who live in the ward to put in your candidate nomination papers. The Conservative candidate only got 8 votes. This might well be a record for a Tory candidate.

Actually, this on a banknote

Come on all of you, big strong men Uncle Sam needs your help again He's got himself in a terrible jam Way down yonder in Vietnam So put down your books, pick up a gun Gonna have a whole lot of fun And it's 1, 2, 3 What are we fighting for? Don't ask me, I don't give a damn Next stop is Vietnam

Just seen a Twitter screen grab of someone referring to Andrew Tate's 'desert trek' into Dubai as 'Lawrence of dry labia'

Jimmy Kimmel tonight: The reason Trump hasn't testified yet about the Epstein files is you can't put him under oath. If he swears to tell the truth, he's already committed perjury. 😆

Pretty difficult to refute a single thing in this perfect assessment of where the f**k we are, from @iandunt.bsky.social:

I would sign, but 38degrees continues to tell me my session has expired each time I submit (saying I don't want to have their incessant emails)

I do love a ghost gable like this found near Ancoats in Manchester - but it's rarer still to find the intangible signs of the puff of smoke from the chimney...

My husband @mjowen174.bsky.social is very down and it’s difficult to see. He had a thriving writing business until AI came along but now he’s struggling to find work. Please repost this far and wide in the hope that he can find some writing work. www.mathew-owen.co.uk

I deeply resent “working class” being taken by much of our political/media class to mean “mostly racist”.

When will there be accountability ❔

Look. People get divorced for all manner of reasons, and it's nobody else's business. However. When a politician is using the slogan: Family. Community. Country. It's perfectly reasonable to point out that they are recently divorced and live in the SE of England miles from Gorton and Denton.

Kicking off We Rise: @globaljusticenow.bsky.social Youth Network Conference in Leeds for a fantastic day of discussion, debate and organising.

A woman weeps over the genocide in Gaza as she waits to be arrested as a terrorist for holding up a piece of cardboard. Parliament Square today.

This Daily Express poll needs some help. 😉 Link to poll: xd.wayin.com/display/cont...

We just published our full analysis of the ICE killing of Alex Pretti on Bellingcat www.bellingcat.com/news/2026/01...

The Nazi SA - Sturmabteilung, or Storm Troopers - were often recruited from the dregs of society: barely literate failures incapable of holding down a job and only fit for murder and terror. The scum of Germany. Hitler gave them free rein to vent their rage on their betters. Sound familiar, America?

🚨The Petition calling for by-elections to be called automatically when MPs defect to another party now has 55,000 signatures! Let’s get the 100,000 needed! petition.parliament.uk/petitions/73...

From Terry Pratchett's 'Guard's Guards' when the guild leaders have to accept the demands of the dragon:

Amazingly, Zahawi only got round to deleting the below after the press conference announcing his defection to Reform.

EXCLUSIVE Following the news that one of the first things a Nigel Farage Reform government would do is ensure that “the young are taught correctly about our history”, I have been passed these leaked pages from Reform’s proposed GCSE history textbook. mrhenrymorris.substack.com/p/exclusive-...

Most Europeans are too naive to realize that Ukrainian soldiers like these are the only thing standing between us and Russian troops. If we want to avoid fighting Russia inside the EU, we need to support Ukraine more and ensure that Russia is defeated

Oh, sorry, one last thing..... This is worth a repost every once in a while, just to remind ourselves what the hell is wrong with the world and how we ought to wake the fuck up and do something about it. The Wrong doesn't stop with this creature, but it's a top example. @kornetzke.bsky.social

RT if you think giving people knighthoods is all a bit silly but still think it's hilarious that Farage still hasn't got one.

From the CWS ARCHIVE. 20th August 2024.

A reminder that Nigel Farage has pocketed more than £400,000 this year from GB News. No wonder Farage is cheering Trump on in his attacks on the BBC.
