Can we be confident that tRump & Hegseth won’t succeed in turning the U.S. military into something more like ICE? The thought seems incredible. But that ICE would be doing what it is now doing on our streets would have been shocking just a year ago. www.thebulwark.com/p/the-silenc...

the post office is a public service. it doesn’t need to make money. public transit doesn’t need to make money. the library doesn’t need to make money. some things exist for the public good and we desperately need lawmakers to stop thinking about them in terms of capitalism. these are not businesses.

In an ideal world now - Nick blackmails Oyin. She gets him voted out - and then she gets Vanessa as a traitor and the two of them ride it out til the end! #TraitorsIRL

#traitorsirl Oyin is incredible, she’s not just getting them right, she’s getting them fór the right reasons. I’d prefer to see her in An Garda Síochána than some others I could mention…

How many other times have siblings appeared on the same episode in different acts? #totp

The soundtrack to me having a brain freeze during one of my finals - this was the only thing running round my brain for about 30 minutes #totp

I think if Britain colonised your country of origin you should get free BBC iplayer.

Trying people to pray away disaster is teaching people "learned helplessness," to be passive and wait for someone else to do something - while the people who are in charge of doing something are avoiding doing anything useful and claiming it's God's plan and more prayer could fix it.

Covering your own town in actual shit because you don't want LGBT people to have the same marching rights that everyone else in NI has really sums up the far right quite rightly

Shirt buttoned to the neck with a jewelled brooch at the throat is the most 1986 outfit possible #totp

Thanks for the reminder @janemunday.bsky.social. Every summer, I repost this article DROWNING DOES NOT LOOK LIKE DROWNING. To date, I know of FOUR kids who were saved after someone who'd clicked on the link learnt how to spot actual drowning. Take time to read and pass on. slate.com/technology/2...

Seniors in Salt Lake City heading out for a #nokingsprotest in front of their assisted living facility.

Twitter and Facebook are harming us. Radicalising people into racism and other inane cruelties, and fomenting violence on our streets. They should be subject to the same publishing restrictions and responsibilities as other publications

16 years in business. 7 roasting our own coffee and 1 since we stopped taking on new cafes. Staff are pensioned, well paid and I hope happy. Seeming need for exponential growth in business is a lie. Knowing and appreciating when you've enough is a more than decent replacement. Lots never get that.

AP reporting Red Cross hospital in Gaza saying at least 21 people killed and another 175 injured in Gaza as they went to receive aid from an Israeli-backed foundation.

Shocking footage from our news wires from Jenin, West Bank, where the IDF fired “warning shots” at a group of diplomats and officials that included two from the Irish Embassy in Ramallah.

The 2 fashion choices in 1997 appear to have been Daz doorstep challenge and estate agent conference.

Amazingly, reaction times using screens while driving are worse than being drunk or high—no wonder 90 percent of drivers hate using touchscreens in cars. Finally the auto industry is coming to its senses. Real buttons are sooooooo back baby!

I do not remember there being so many all-white outfits being worn in 1997 - it's been going on for weeks now #totp

Another pre-cursor to UK Garage here. Banger. #totp

Labour is handing this country on a silver platter to Reform. People do not vote Labour because they hate immigrants and want Reform-lite. They vote Labour because they want it to make a positive difference to their lives.

He kinda cribbed the other part of his message from the progressives though. From 2017: talkingpointsmemo.com/edblog/for-m...

I can't bear all these attempts to understand what Trump 'means' with his tariffs. He's not a rational actor. What did your cat 'mean' when it pushed the cup off the coffee table?

Absolutely tired of the psychodrama of one country being the problem of the entire planet.

We're all aware of the malign influence that is Airbnb but this piece is well worth a read. Some of the numbers are jaw dropping. Just an opinion but it's as though a decision has been made to value money generated in tourism over the need to provide housing. #banairbnb
