Nice article from @lisaburton.bsky.social I'd add only one thing on the question of difference. Reform is very English nationalism and Anglo-norming is part of its MO. Welsh and Scottish people should beware of that. Devolution is an easy target yorkshirebylines.co.uk/news/home-af...

It's called unspokens. It where the character is in a thought process of what's happening to them at the moment. The actor is going through a thought process of things that's happened to them in real life and that process puts the character in the emotional state of mine that they're dealing with.

Americans should be ashamed that we’ve NORMALIZED CORRUPTION.

82 years ago today my grandfather, who lied about his age to enlist in the military, was in one of the first waves of landing crafts to hit the beaches of Normandy. He's been gone a long time now, but today I remember him and the other brave souls who fought and died for a righteous cause.

The real tragedy of Brexit is how many people are still living in 2016. Whining won't make the damned thing go away any more than strokiing the turd and calling it "my precioussss" will make the bugger work.

Brexit is not a punishment. Brexit is a sovereign choice of the UK. Votes have consequences. Your positon amounts to our treating the UK exceptionally cos some of you didn't want Brexit. Fine. How do we tel the difference? Or is the expectation that we treat all Britons exceptionally?

Seems there are some "pro-EU" people who think that leaving the EU didn't mean losing stuff like FoM, and therefore that was the EU "punishing" the UK for the result.

Having poor people starve is a failure as a species! We are a failed experiment! If you think it’s ok for one person to be worth $1 trillion dollars as the world starved, then we must conclude we are an evil species!

"Japan is building a wind and solar hybrid platform in the open ocean — so the two technologies can share a single foundation and generate power around the clock. It produces a more consistent 24-hour electricity output than either technology alone #ActOnClimate #Renewables #ClimateActionNow

The Albanian people have been massively protesting for several consecutive days against slumlord crook Jared Kushner and Crimestress Ivanka seizing land in their country to the sum of billions of dollars to build a trashy resort. I hope they don’t stop until their evil corrupt deal is reversed.

In this video, I say the obvious about Trump’s proposal to increase the military budget by nearly 50%: it’s a bribe to officers and soldiers so that they will side with him when he tries to overthrow the Constitution and stay in power indefinitely. snyder.substack.com/p/trumps-mil...

THIS is a projection..... from the most dishonest president in our history 👇

sam alito in callais: it is just a coincidence that partisan gerrymandering looks like racial gerrymandering. it doesn’t mean anything tennessee republicans post-callais: yee haw boys we are gettin’ the negras outta government

Derrick Coleman declined his Mobile Sports Hall of Fame induction, saying he could not accept the honor while Black voters face diminished representation under newly approved congressional maps. “We cannot settle for silence,” Coleman said.

Photos of newly arrived immigrants at Ellis Island. Augustus Sherman took the photos between 1902 and 1920 when he worked as the Chief Registry Clerk. Striking to me how the outfits all look good because they have a discernible silhouette (shape and drape).

Keith David has finally received his well deserved star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. Today is his 70th birthday!

Wait, the Nazi Tattoo guy was *also* shitty to women? No. Couldn’t possibly be. Who could have guessed at such a thing??

Gone but not forgotten: youtu.be/1_-Vu8LrUDk?...

Kremlin envoy Kirill Dmitriev, with whom Witkoff/Kushner have been “negotiating” for over a year, shared that Russian and American officials tomorrow will be signing a memorandum on building a tunnel, under the Bering Strait, between Chukotka and Alaska. Don’t even ask me to comment on this.

Holy Cow, that one statement he made about "if you like your insurance, you can keep insurance " KEPT being trotted out by conservatives. It was a mistake, but it wasn't misinformation. He MEANT the law wouldn't require you to change. But insurance companies choosing to discontinue policies ...

Not political misinformation, GOP and MAGA misinformation.

ANGIE CRAIG: I don't think you understand the difference between error rates and fraud rates. I honestly don't. SNAP has one of the lowest fraud rates of any program BROOKE ROLLINS: You can't be serious when you say that CRAIG: Your own data says that

The local elections in one chart. Labour has been squeezed between the Greens in young wards and Reform in older working-class wards www.economist.com/britain/2026...

Why does a president need immunity from committing TAX FRAUD unless he is and has been committing tax fraud?

"Energy was flowing before he attacked Iran, he ripped up the nuclear treaty. These are incompetent moves by people ignorant about world affairs." Why can nobody just lay it out this simply for these asshats?

This steel executive doesn't seem to realise that the UK chose not to be a European country. This is going to be a constant issue, as Europe will continue to protect itself from unfair competition and protect its future economy, which will hurt the UK www.theguardian.com/business/202...

Yes, of course! But I was answering the question in the context of the questioner’s ”represent the remain voters”. If you are taking an overview of where over 50% of GE24 Labour voters have gone: PC Greens SNP LD/Ref = Con minor left parties In that order (proportionate to pop in countries).

Ken Jones, a retired San Francisco firefighter, has died from lung cancer after Blue Shield denied his treatment claims Any 2028 candidate who does not champion universal healthcare is a non-starter. I will not vote for someone who kills my neighbors for "shareholder value." You can go burn in hell

The only way that Labour can assemble a winning coalition next time round is with a positive offer on Europe. The old coaltion is not coming back. Europe's the only way to generate enthusism. And two year's from now is too late for starting to become pro-European. news.sky.com/video/e...

I’ve now seen one story since the NYC power grid added just a massive amount of renewable energy. About 20% of the city’s grid is now renewable energy! Should be a huge good news story! Share the news: www.thecityreporter.nyc/2026/06/03/c...

Can’t wait for them to use the opposite logic when the blue states redistrict next term.

There is no legal recourse the Supreme Court will allow. It’s “white’s win always” and there’s nothing anyone can do about it. thehill.com/regulation/c...

black people electing black people to congress in districts where they form a plurality or majority? potentially invidious racial discrimination. the only way to escape constitutional scrutiny is to elect a white conservative, then we know dr. king's dream of colorblindness has been achieved

crazy that under the precedent set by callais, a lily-white congressional delegation formed by "partisan" gerrymandering in a plurality black state passes constitutional muster, while any majority-minority district is constitutionally suspect
