Fun fact: I developed this very idea as a Doctor Who novel. I don't think I got as far as pitching it, though.

Ossoff: "This is what small men like Donald Trump and JD Vance and Stephen Miller will never understand. That our national greatness flows not through our blood or our genes, but through our ideas. Americans are not a race, we're a people united not by ethnicity, but by our shared convictions."

The obvious other point to make is that Parliament is a legislative body, and could clarify or reword that single point of law.

Going through some old boxes of books and I stumbled across my first copy of Doctor Who: The Dying Days by
@lanceparkin.bsky.social
. This was available on the BBC website for a while, so I copied it all into a word doc, formatted it, printed it, and had it bound. I later acquired a real book copy.

I do wonder if the misogyny of the GOP opinion former class has mutated from a phobia of anything [they think of as] feminine into a rigid insistence on asserting [what they think of as] masculity. They've always been two sides of a coin, but ... it recently seems to have landed on one side.

Important context: the line 'Democrats are for they/them, not you' was felt to be effective for the GOP in the 2024 US campaign, so this is just witlessly following a playbook that worked for Putinistas there.

OK, they'll compromise: Trump goes on the $250 bill, but their economic policies will make us all so poor no one will actually have $250.

There's been very little pushback from the companies who planned to build data centres as state after state cracks down. Either they've come to realise there's no demand, or they never really intended to build them.

Democrats self-sabotaged in 2024 when they stopped talking about these guys as the weird perverts and assholes that they are. Most of the country sees people like Stephen Miller and think they're gross monsters. They will always respond well when leaders/institutions that affirm their gut vibes.

Hungarian police approve Budapest Pride in break from Orbán era
Policy U-turn comes after rightwing nationalist government was swept from power in April after 16-year rule * Europe live – latest updates Police in Hungary have said they will allow next month’s Pride parade in Budapest to take place, signalling a reversal from last year when they sought to block the event on the orders of the government of the rightwing former prime minister Viktor Orbán. Last year’s march made headlines around the world after Orbán’s Fidesz party backed legislation – the first of its kind in the EU’s recent history – that created a legal basis for Pride events to be banned, citing a widely criticised need to protect children.
