As one of the co-creators of Don't Look Up and someone who struggles with an impending sense of doom, this is one of the most optimism-inspiring articles I've read in a very long time.

What would you focus on?

In case you hadn't noticed:

Happy Easter

“…members of the DOGE team asked that their activities not be logged on the system and then appeared to try to cover their tracks behind them, turning off monitoring tools and manually deleting records of their access…” What kind of shady s**t is going on here?? www.npr.org/2025/04/15/n...

What are the odds that the Republicans suddenly claim Obamas birth certificate is fraudulent just as they introduce a bill to change the constitution so the Manchunian Candidate can have a third term? www.cnbc.com/2025/01/23/t...

Donald Trump is a fascist. You can both recognise he's democratically elected and stand up against him. Being elected doesn't mean Labour have to jump in line with his hateful and toxic politics. (See also: Reform) 👇🏼 youtu.be/cf88kdKbwO4?...

Execs from some of world’s biggest oil & gas firms are due to attend a conservative conference in London convened by Jordan Peterson, according to a leaked guest list seen by @desmog.bsky.social Also due to attend: Farage, Badenoch & head of the Heritage Foundation (publishers of Project 2025)

From Wired: Marko Elez one of a number of young men...associated with DOGE, was granted read & write privileges on two of the most sensitive systems in US government: the Payment Automation Manager & Secure Payment System at BFS, an agency that .. paid out $5.45 trillion in fiscal year 2024.

🚨Breaking🚨 Sir Stephen Fry calls on Keir Starmer to bring ‘effectively bankrupt’ Thames Water into public ownership. 💧 So that ‘it works for all of us, people and planet.’ 🌎 Agree? Sign our petition. Link in comments 👇🏽 #SirStephenFry #ThamesWater #PublicOwnership

@zackpolanski.bsky.social hitting the nail on the head once again. #saferoutesformigrants #taxthebillionaires

Big up the Greens 💚

when the Pope dunks on Vance's shitty read of Augustine:

lmao they're really fucking mad

Imagine being so bad at Sunday school that the pope yelled at you personally

I thought it was worth explaining why this claim by @rcolvile.bsky.social is *not* based on "OBR statistics" and indeed directly contradicts them, as well as all other published data on migrant wages. archive.ph/az8g6

US is so, so screwed.

As Labour touts more brutal cuts to benefits, how is this different from life under the Tories? Reeves tweaks non-dom tax law because of “concerns” but ignores the cries of disabled, old, sick, poor. Poor are expendable. Wealthy potential donors less so. Govt must change direction.

We should deport ICE to Antartica they can try arresting polar bears.

OpenAI employee crying over the explicit deal the Valley made with consumers 30 years ago

Boom!!!

PSA.

Labour's simplemindedness will be its downfall - and ours. You can't build and bulldoze your way out of the housing crisis. Unless you also change the system, you'll still leave millions without decent homes. My column today explains why. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Had an awesome time chatting with Jon Stewart & @weeklyshowpodcast.bsky.social talking about how to fight the dumpster fire. Gear up. It’s time to brawl.

Keir Starmer wrote in the Daily Mail attacking a Green campaigner. He replied: "I don’t virtue signal. I’m doing this for my grandchildren. Starmer is virtue signalling to the Daily Mail and the fossil fuel lobby.” Starmer is so awful at all of this. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

OPINION: The era of Bidenomics is being eclipsed by a new vision rooted in what could be called “national capitalism.” But for some reason this isn’t getting through to Brussels. 🔗 www.politico.eu/article/dona...

Right out of the gate they are detaining U.S. citizens and saying their “papers”are fake. It was always a lie.

Highly amused to discover that folk are now referring to Teslas as "Swasticars"

Good thread on Trump and law

Whereas the influence of newspaper barons like Murdoch was 'in the shadows', through the back door of Downing St & splashed across front pages, the tech media age of Musk allows the algorithm to get directly into people's heads, activating emotional trigger points in a more targeted, insidious way.
