Dr Rasmussen made an excellent narrative essay of the basic 'primer on vaccination' lecture so many of us have given for years.

You know, some days I sit and think about how absolutely wild it is that we've built a society where we don't provide a place for people to even sleep at night without having to pay for it, and that we've somehow made it seem like that's normal.

This has been going on since 2020, since I started campaigning for vaccines and clean air. These bots shaped the narrative on COVID. www.infectioncontroltoday.com/view/covid-1...

Striking a boat full of unarmed civilians is murder. The first strike was murder. The followup strike was also murder. We're not at war. It's not a "war crime". Everyone involved, including the POTUS, SecDef, the Admiral who relayed it and the person who pressed the button needs to be on trial.

Is is any wonder that a Prince, Duke of York, Earl of Inverness, Baron Killyleagh, His Royal Highness - should act as if he is entitled? Dump all birth right entitlements. It simply signifies unearned privilege. It does nobody any good.

Mounting a resolute defence against the far right on immigration is necessary but not sufficient. We need aggressively pro-immigration voices - like this - in UK politics. Actively welcoming migrants is morally right and better for everyone. Make that case and put the bigots on the defensive.

That scene of the Welsh BBC correspondent being the only person interviewing Caerphilly's new Plaid AM while the rest of the media interviewed Reform's loser in the background was far too on the nose.

#cleanair #HEPA #airpurifiers #COVID #H5N1 #infectioncontrol Looking for recommendations for buying an air filter in the UK. For Covid, but also fine dust (from my woodworking). I'm put off by the high price of replacement filters, especially as I might use many, filtering out the dust. Thanks.

Everybody: please stop mentioning that Farage was regularly on Russia Today, a channel now banned for its Russian propaganda content, blamed the EU for Russia's invasion of Ukraine in 2014, had a Russian spy running his Welsh operation, and built his whole career on a policy Putin supports.

Vacancy: Duke of York. This position needs to be filed urgently, before... before what now? Can we cope without a Duke of York??

If Greta Thunberg and the rest of the people of the aid flotilla are taken from boats in international waters and imprisoned, their countries should regard Israel as hostage takers.

When did the framing of masking become ‘wokey lefty’ these are some of the ridiculous comments in the UK media, in response to Violet Affleck delivering her speech. Respirators work, it’s called physics! Enough of this ignorant politicisation of health preventions for an airborne virus.

For there to be no comment from the government on Musk's call for violence, let alone action against X, is unconscionable. An utter dereliction of its responsibility for national security and an affront to every member of an ethnic minority, who is being put at risk by this rhetoric.

We should honour this guys wishes by talking more about Trump being on the Epstein list.

Here’s the thing: we do not concede *one inch* to the far right. Ever. Anywhere. They are not just another political player. They are a threat to everything our ancestors fought and died to protect. They are not to be appeased. They are to be stopped. Rip down the flags wherever you see them. 3/3

Could we please stop pretending that the flags being hung from streetlamps or painted on roundabouts are innocent expressions of patriotic pride? This is the far right marking out its territory. It uses these flags to intimidate its traditional victims and opponents. 🧵1/3

A party that wants to govern is proudly parading a woman who demanded buildings full of people be burnt down, platforming an imbecile who thinks vaccines caused cancer in the royals, and parading a ‘star line-up’ of weirdos who can’t even sing the national anthem. Er, off you fuck. 👋

@sianushka.bsky.social hi. I wanted to respond to your excellent article warning about Farage. You suggest NIMBYS will fight against planning applications for camps. Not if the camp is located in a freeport! It can get steam rolled through!

The 'leaders of the free world' think they can gaslight us all into accepting a GENOCIDE. They think wrong. Israel has lost all credibility and so have they. End the GENOCIDE. End the blockade. OPEN THE BORDER LET THE AID TRUCKS INTO GAZA.

Police in Canterbury today informed a protestor that the phrase "Israel is committing genocide in Gaza" could be considered a declaration of support for Palestine Action and therefore a terrorism offence.

I support Palestine Action. I hate all forms of violence. I wish no harm on anyone. I just want a kinder, fairer, greener world. Apparently this makes me a terrorist. But I am the opposite of a terrorist.

#Monbiot What's this fishing industry that has been given to the EU? A few big trawlers in the N Atlantic, often foreign owned + UK flag. Inshore waters dead! No cod, pollack, ling left! Overfishing and water now too warm. They're not coming back. (I used to be a pro out of Brixham).

@bsky.app Is there a way to block people posing images of cats, dogs and rabbits? I think I've got the idea.

We live in a country where this didn’t make the press.

@georgemonbiot.bsky.social Hi George, if you read this I think it'll take your mind off climate change and other forms of doom for a while. I'd like to think it would help, but it won't. ai-2027.com

Stop the Destruction of the World-Renowned Dartington Forest Garden Can you help by signing this petition? chng.it/XYFbT264L6

Love it.

I rarely have violent thoughts, but I fucking HATE bullies. Watching those talentless, classless, psychopathic scumbags try to undermine Zelenskyy, one of the most courageous leaders since WWII, whilst simping for Putin, made my blood boil. Good on Zelenskyy for leaving early. Fuck them.

We're shocked by Trump and Musk's antics because we judge them against the idea that governments should serve the people. But they have no such intention. Government for them is simply about seizing power and wealth. Let's stop being shocked, and build a global, democratic counter-movement.

It really is - do watch to the very last line

Damn good question! Levels of plastic in the brain are steadily increasing world wide. No-one knows the effect, but it can't be good. How long do we keep producing the stuff the way we do? www.scientificamerican.com/article/why-...

💙 Please can you do one small thing for me this Sunday. Please spare a minute to sign this ⬇️ petition. And then please try to find at least one more person to sign it - maybe a partner or friend? Together, we can get it to at least 10K signatures! ✍🏻 petition.parliament.uk/petitions/70...

Just a reminder for the next four years: the traditional media is useless at dealing with Not Normal. It has baked-in templates and modes of operation that forces news into Normal shapes. And that’s how things that are beyond the pale gradually become regular life.

It's 2025 and we are no longer beholden to sitting through those uhms and ahs. Liberate yourselves from these soliloquy shackles, with a summarised tldr as an added bonus. transcriberforwhatsapp.com

Cats. All over the place. I get more cat pics here than ads in the other place. It's like cat litter. Any way to clean out the cats?

There doesn't seem to be any MSM coverage of Starmer's astonishing announcement that the Labour Party are in partnership with Blackrock, the most corrupt corporation on the planet who will privatise the UK with the help of 74 deregulated SEZs and 12 Freeports. State capture, and not a peep.

Now Venn, is there an overlap of people who don't believe in the COVID virus and the people who do believe in the woke mind virus?

1/ 🚨 Conspiracy theories about the 2024 election miss the bigger picture. The truth? It wasn’t one night, one hack, or one fraud. It was a system rigged in plain sight – right in front of us. The playbook was out in the open for years. But hardly anyone paid attention. Here’s how they did it... 🧵

What the UK needs is massive change. End Brexit. End the House of Lords. Tax the rich. Renationalise all the essentials, Water, Power, Rail, Mail. And change it so they can't be privatised again without a Referendum.

This is the rallying call that I've needed to hear since November 6th. From Roxane Gay in today's New York Times www.nytimes.com/2024/11/17/o...

This is a magnific thread (on xitter) by Arijit Chakravarty, who is not on bluesky. How sars2 pandemic warps the economy (labor shortage, inflation and the burden of health misery). Worth reading. threadreaderapp.com/thread/18578...

I just popped over to the dark side to see what's left. Very nearly half the posts in my timeline are from Elon. I think I'll leave my account running and see if I end up with a one-to-one with him. When that happens, do I let on where everyone has gone or do I keep it a secret?

Cartoon of the era: 2016-20??

I'm not getting any scantily clad women with no posts and no followers following me here. What do I need to do, go back to X?
