Every death in the Channel is the avoidable result of a political choice.

yeah i think he fell for ai lol

In case you're thinking the world is completely awful and a lost cause, I just watched two strangers in a coffee shop come together to help each other out with the crosswords they were stuck on. There's still some good out there.

This tweet has been doing the rounds on Twitter now that Nathan Gill has pleaded guilty. If only someone had tried to investigate UKIP & Russian interference 🧐 There’s another timeline where the Guardian supported me, doubled down on the investigation & I look 5 years younger ..

Justice Kavanaugh: “If the person is a U. S. citizen or otherwise lawfully in the United States, that individual will be free to go after the brief encounter.”

Dear USA Deploying troops against civilians will not go well. Yours Great Britain and Northern Ireland

There seems to be some *confusion* among Reform supporters over Nathan Gill being one of them “But, but, Reform didn’t exist when he took his Russian bribes” “But, but he was in UKIP” “But, but it has nothing to do with Farage, he barely knew the guy” So here’s a little history lesson 👍🏼🧵 1/14

Please, if you have the privilege of not being an obvious and immediate target for state violence... Call them fascists, loudly, ESPECIALLY right now. Call yourself an antifascist, loudly, ESPECIALLY right now. We all need to be Spartacus on this one.

War ravaged Portland

Can't figure out if this is the name of a Bond villain, or a 1980s Sunday morning cartoon dumb henchman.

These very true words from Steve Hely have given me tremendous comfort over the years.

“The Mumsnet interviewer then intervenes to say: That sounds like third spaces? Streeting responds: I think for trans women, yes, I think that is where we’re looking.” And this is where we end up: 1950’s America.👇

They've lost the 9yos

I love political journalism

Farage wanting to kick people out of the country because they migrated here made me angry and made me think about which best of British people and things wouldn't have happened were it not for the brilliance of immigration to the UK.

A BBC investigation finds asylum seekers trapped in dilapidated hotels, spending years in administrative limbo, indebted to criminal gangs and yes, moved arbitrarily so that they have to take taxis across the country for routine GP appointments. Government response? Stop the taxis.

Obsessed with this song. Listening to it over and over again until it's time for some more food. youtu.be/WjIKF6Z_uXk

You simply cannot make me spend my time on this stuff. Oh the president said Tylenol causes autism? Well it doesn't. No I'm not going to pore through research papers to prove it to you. That's not what my time is for. My time is for playing videogames and gazing lovingly at my wife.

Bluesky tonight seems to be 90% oblique references to various new utter stupidities that I'm not aware of yet.

The last time a senior American official blurted out this kind of stuff, the Korean War happened.

Raptcha: select all boxes with people ascending to Heaven

Such wonderful news about the Huntingdon’s breakthrough. A lot of responses here are interesting though. Lots of framing of it “isolated good news” “something positive for once” “finally, ONE good thing”. But it’s not is it? Loads of good things happening, especially medically.

Too late, Batman. Once this Tylenol floods the city's water supply, my wiki won't run out of editors ever again

Gl*nner whining that satire is dead while The Daily Tism are out here satirising America into the next century

Oi. BBC. Many experts are not skeptical. It is utter bullshit and you should call it out as such. This is the MMR bollocks x 1 million

Go anti-woke, go broke

It's a racist lie, all of it, every word. The claims it is based on are false in fact, and repellent in morality. Merely having said it out loud without being unanimously howled down marks another moment of shameful descent for us as a nation.

The truth: we need migration. The problem: too many politicians are terrified to say it. Why? They're led by a) toxicity of the charlatans & b) wealthy media organisations who demand these useful distractions rather than us talking about inequality. Reject it. Draw the line.

Is it really *that hard* to say that it is totally morally wrong to say to people who have come here legally, worked, paid taxes, built their lives here, contributed to Britain, that they have to fuck off now, rather than "unfunded".

Very poor/implicitly hyperpartisan reporting from @lbc.co.uk - a) uses pejorative term ('handouts') b) leaves the false impression that migrants in general receive 'handouts' (rather than those legally resident/contributing for five years) c) omits the deportation element of the policy

Do pine for the days when the bookies shop was treated with proper contempt so wasn't even allowed window displays or any real high street presence, instead of every day being a deluge of gambling adverts, gambling sponsorships, gambling shops, gambling apps, casinocasinocasi... It's nauseating.

This little cherub has suddenly taken it upon herself to become partially sighted and is cautiously toeing around the house in circles, mapping her way. One expensive trip to the emergency vets later, we're moderately confident it's just confined to her eyesight, whatever it is.

We're at the point where the Trump does something worse than Watergate daily, often multiple times a day. And none of it makes news; it's just normal now.

Latest "They can always tell" news...

Lib Dems also falling into the bullshit of "if we resolve the asylum backlog efficiently, we defeat Reform". Reform don't care about the 'asylum backlog' outside of it being a tool. It could be 0 people and it wouldn't matter as long as there are people of colour in the UK. That is the end goal.

The president ordering the murder of 3 more human beings on a boat didn’t even make the list

Absolutely wild. Israel targeted and massacred 31 journalists and media staff in Yemen. The second-deadliest attack on journalists ever recorded. The Israeli regime is built on war crimes.

Halfway through dealing with the mess in the kitchen. Right now I'd trade it all for a button on the wall labelled "gruel".
