49% of Americans are struggling to buy food even as Trump has made himself $4 billion richer as their president and cut taxes for the wealthiest 1%

At last 👍

I owe my position as Mayor of New York City to the power of working people and I will always govern with them in mind. 

We’ve delivered millions of dollars in corporate settlements to workers — nearly $100K each day we’ve been in office. 

We’re just getting started. Happy May Day, New York.

"Electrifying industrial heat in India is now cheaper than producing heat from natural gas and oil across all temperatures, and cheaper than coal in three of five temperature bands, representing 55 percent of the country’s industrial heat needs."

I did a train trip to Sorrento a few weeks ago. It took two days each way but it was an absolute joy.

Capitalist morons over at Forbes even get it now.

Council elections may seem small fry but, if Farage controls enough, he can hamper cantral government's implementation of, for instance, new homelessness legislation + renewables. You can check the party with the best chance against Reform in your ward, here 👇 www.pollcheck.co.uk/council-proj...

Then we must re-post the hell out of it.

This did not age well…

Yes, but by that time it will already be too late. By 2050 a large part of the planet will be too hot to live in.

No. Just no.

#NYC #Mayor Zohran #Mamdani joined labor #unions at this year’s May Day rally, reaffirming his administration's commitment to worker protections & economic reform. A clear signal of the mayor's continued close alliance with the city's #labor movement. #NewYork pix11.com/video/mayor-...

They can't even manage local councils, let alone national government. Thank God there are no elections where I live next week.

The problem is AI doesn't get the nuance of language quite right, which is a dead give away. It's like many non English speakers will say "For sure, x y and z happened", for example, when no native English speaker uses the phrase in that way. So things always sound a bit off.

#FrescoFriday 🏺 Tomb portrait of deceased pictured as a returning Lucanian warrior, 370-360 BC. From burial site just north of Poseidonia in Magna Grecia -- later #Roman Paestum, in Campania. Slab-built tomb was installed, plastered + painted in situ below ground, w slabs added to form peaked roof.

I 'borrowed' this from an anti-Reform group on Facebook. I wish I knew a name to give the credit to, but I don't. It's a very useful summary of the career of that nice Mr #Farage. Such a fine, honest, upstanding fellow...

Bound for where though? Certainly not the west so certainly not a return to business as usual.

Did Farage pay tax on the interest generated by this gift?

NACHO!

Love the new Banksy statue in London. It's got Reform voters written all over it 😂

Livia Drusilla, my favourite badass woman of Rome ❤️

@alexpodyssey.bsky.social Alex, the Clangers?! How could you miss that? 🤔

@alexpodyssey.bsky.social Hi Alex, just listening to your Q&A on Pandora's box and the part about opera being about the two men, tenor and baritone, fighting over the soprano. In context with the rest of the programme, why, still, has nobody woken up and said "actually, men are the problem"?

Traitors. Two white males, one white female. Law of averages, Secret Traitor will be BAME female.

@quietriotpod.bsky.social Hi team, listening to your latest podcast, I tried to buy some items for the East Manchester Academy but Amazon said it can't deliver to a list or gift registry address. What can I do?

OMG, a friend of mine, who I would class as a reasonable person, just told me about a friend who had been at A&E and it was full of immigrants because, as they couldn't go to a GP, they had to go to A&E to be treated. Farage's work is complete. Apparently they were also lying on the floor. WTAF 🤔

Jonathan Ross and Alan Carr as Traitors? Talk about rewarding two of the best known blokes on the show 😡 David Olusago and Charlotte Church would have been better picks #Traitors

@k8lister.bsky.social listening to Fuckboys Rasputin. Frances Welch is brilliant, there's something wonderful about hearing posh people talk about sex, so matter of fact 😂

@alexpodyssey.bsky.social Hi Alex, I'm loving that you're finding the Greek "heroes", in this case Perseus, had feet of clay. Wait until you research Achilles, Jason and, worst of all, Theseus!

I'm so bitterly disappointed with Starmer trying to out-farage Farage.

"An Afgan man is 22 times more likely to commit rape than a *white* British male. Let that sink in. Black or brown British males are not absolved. just White.

@alexpodyssey.bsky.social Hi Alex, something I struggle with is pronunciation of names in ancient Greek. I'm not familiar with the language at all. when you do the podcast do you go with the pronunciation we seem to know or do you use the proper Greek?

youtube.com/watch?v=Pmzx... This is what I imagine the tech wizards are: Musk, Zucherman, Bezos. A bunch of bowl headed freaks.

@rexfactor.bsky.social Hi, the link in your show notes to the live show in Ludlow doesn't appear to work, it says page not found. I've gone directly to the website instead.

Yes! [Fist pump!] Anne Boleyn out, Emma of Normandy first! The public knows best 😉 @rexfactor.bsky.social

@alexpodyssey.bsky.social Hi Alex, loved your 2nd episode of Persephone which is my preferred version of her. I admit I have a soft spot for Hades and I like to think it was a love story, while she still kept her own agency. She ate the pomegranate, she wanted to be with him 😊

Barassie wronged woman I meant to say @alexpodyssey.bsky.social

@alexpodyssey.bsky.social Hi Alex, would you consider covering Medea from the viewpoint of Euripides, that Jason was a wimp and Medea a badass?

Look who were lounging in the sun right in front of me at Ranthambhore ❤️❤️❤️

Wow, just paid £12.50 for a glass of wine 😳 No wonder I don't go to pubs any more.

@alexpodyssey.bsky.social Dammit Alex, I'm at the airport listening to your intro to Midas and keep laughing out loud! People are staring at me!

Oh please tell me you're the murderer 🙏

@mattgreencomedy.com I've just seen you in Mrs Sidhu, at a board meeting, and everybody turns to look at you!

@rexfactor.bsky.social You see, if you'd given Philippa of Hainault Rex Factor you'd have had even groups! Anyway, Ethefled queen of the Mercians should get through to semis.

youtube.com/watch?v=lLNU... Annoying as it was that it took 25 mins for Plusnet to answer my call, at least I picked up this catchy little number.

@iandunt.bsky.social Watch Dog Legions. Please tell me they used your laugh 😉
