"Why should I care about U.S. Space Command being transferred to Alabama? I hate the military-industrial complex. We spend too much money on defense. Why does it matter which rich people get richer off it?" There are a number of reasons you should care, but you really only need one. (thread)
The common denominator in every place where birth rates are dropping is women’s increased access to education.
Apparently Guillermo Del Toro has ruined Frankenstein by… being relatively faithful to the source material. Oh my.
Left: Keir Starmer announcing what phase two of the government is going to look like Right: One of the many anti asylum seeker protests of recent days, this one of kids shouting our repeatedly, "we want them out" What kind of leader just carries on and pretends everything is ok?
Where's Prevent? Those children are being groomed into radicalisation
The US military will conduct a flyover of the White House and wider DC at 11am tomorrow (Wednesday). Epstein’s victims will be holding a press conference on Capitol Hill around the same time.
I used to read books like Lord of the Rings or watch movies like Star Wars and think the villains were unbelievable. And of course, now watching the tech oligarchs (who could not spend all their money if they tried) destroy civilization for power, I’m like, guess I was wrong. People are that awful.
Being pro-drowning of children seems like a real are-we-the-baddies moment www.npr.org/sections/sho...
Epstein Survivors Press Conference Sept 3rd, 10:30 a.m. ET Tune in to support them.
It brings me no joy at all to see that it’s even dumber, more crass, more wildly reckless and more empty of thought than even I had believed it was
ALSO SPEAKING OF NEWS There's dozens of articles about a little boy, 11, murdered in Texas. Jist is, the little boy was playing ding dong ditch (which may be annoying but it's a little kid thing, I did it as a kid) and someone came out, and as the little boy was running off, shot him in the back
This is not reporting. This is propaganda.
I've been to India and if you put a Tesla on self driving mode there would be absolute carnage.
is 600 cars sold in a country of 1.45 billion a lot? Tesla Books About 600 Orders in India Debut, Short of Goal
What insider trading should we look out for as a forward indicator of trump's death? Short selling of truth social? Sales of shares in orange concealer?

I'm just going to keep noting that the owner and operator of Twitter -- the social media that too many politicians and pundits use to determine what's "normal" -- keeps on pushing the white supremacist Great Replacement Theory that has been the motivation for multiple mass shootings in this country.

If AOC's star power helps propel Mamdani to mayor in NYC, and Bernie's star power helps Graham Platner unseat Susan Collins, while small moves, they would be nice steps toward a more progressive future. It does my little socialist heart good thinking about them boosting other progressives.
(Homer Simpson whisper) HE MEANS WHITE PEOPLE
Feels like the flag debate has been kicking around my whole life and it still boils down to: Civic institutions should fly the flag routinely. Sporting occasions and national events, sure get it out. Year round flag on your house, bit weird, trashy. Doing it to "intimidate the forrins", obvs bad
Please do it
Can we send all our knobheads to Dubai?
Rupert Lowe-Life is truly thick as sh*t imo besides his overt hatred of anyone non white He bleats about Dept of Health allowing remote working abroad but when in Reform was fine with Richard Tice living in Dubai on £94 K paid by us, and Farage spending more time in USA & Asia etc than Clacton 🙄
Next week, Boris Johnson with advice on monogamy. ~AA

Greetings from Kyiv, where the air raid alert has been ongoing for three hours. Drones. I’m furious that children have to spend their second day of school in shelters.
More women were killed by their son than by a stranger, acc to new figures from a campaign group looking at violence against women. The latest report by Femicide Census: of 121 women killed by men in 2022, 12 were killed by their sons and 11 were killed by someone they did not know.
what lies beneath
I'm still trying to fully grasp the arresting of fire fighters ... as they fought a fire.
Rhetoric has consequences
Thaaaat's the bathroom off the Lincoln Bedroom. WTF? Who is throwing what out the window of the White House?!
I hope they ask him how he's assimilating into Dubai
an influencer is doing a photoshoot outside the cafe I'm working from and I mean I could arguably move but I'm really enjoying the contortions she and her photographer are currently going through in order not to have me, hunched like an uncooked prawn at the table by the window, ruining their shots
Tens of thousands of reservists started to report for duty on Tuesday ahead of a new Israeli offensive in Gaza City, which Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu wants to speed up, despite warnings from senior ranks. They're going to go in and start killing, aren't they! The murderous b*stards!🤬🤬🤬
I've reported a couple of scam ads on Facebook using an AI generated you. They did take down the ones of you but not of other famous people
We must shut down big tech giving criminal scammers real estate on their sites. It's now 6yrs since I sued Facebook, yet still NO REGULATIONS in place to protect consumers, and non will be until 2027. Pathetic! contd
Attention seeking arse
Misogyny and classism
Angela Rayner is a successful northern girl from a working class background & the elites don’t like it, they’re trying to find ways to take her down. @dailymail.co.uk, @dailyexpressnews.bsky.social & @telegraphnews.bsky.social are the worst for this. #AngelaRayner
All looking great. 👀
The late Iain Banks remarks have never been more relevant. Asylum seekers actually get a pittance from the state and they haven't caused any political problems. Immigration is a good and positive thing and it has helped build Scotland into the modern tolerant and free country it is today.
The irony of someone whose family settled in apartheid south Africa and a Malaysian who thinks he's American going on about 'indigenous people' has mad my irony meter explode.
How long will Europe allow this South African white supremacist oligarch and social media platform owner to meddle in our politics? It's time to tighten social media regulation
A bit of uncanny valley then.
80% of murders in England and Wales are committed by white English males.
If something is essential to life and there is no competition, it should not be in private hands.
To appease bankers Reeves says Thames Water should find ‘market-based solution’. Not possible. It is a monopoly, no competition, no choice. Since 1989 TW paid £10.4bn in dividends, £13.68bn interest payments. Rocketing bills, sewage in rivers. We can't afford more of the same. Nationalise water.

RIP Graham Greene. Every time he popped up on screen when I was a kid, my mom would excitedly point him out for being an actual Native on the screen. Able to be deadly serious and infinitely hilarious (even in smaller roles like Last of Us), he ate up the screen. Nʌki’wah brother.

Well this is a good opportunity to wheel out Jonathan Gullis's Desecration of War Memorials bill. www.cornwalllive.com/news/cornwal...
Concern over low birth rates was what the theocracy in Margaret Atwood’s Handmaid’s Tale used to come to power.
I heard that an elderly priest and a young priest rushed to the whitehouse brandishing holy water, crosses and a bible.
Seeing if it was high enough to defenestrate oligarchs in the style of Putin
So there’s a thing I’ve noticed repeatedly from people who are still on X, The Everything App - they’re constantly making weird accusations about Bluesky that don’t make any sense if you’re on here, and I think it’s a sign they’re deeply insecure about posting to X, The Everything App.
Say it isn’t so‼️ META IS UNETHICAL 🙄
"Rudy Giuliani nursed an injured crow back to life with warm milk, then drove to a place not a liquor store, and then got in a car accident. After this, an unscrupulous stranger littered the backseat of his car with scores of emptied airline-size bottles of Gilbert’s vodka. Two may have been gin."
Nigel Farage has more TV time than any other politician with the exception of Keir Starmer, though some weeks he has more than him as well. You are being relentlessly forced every day by the Media to listen to a biased racist narrative that 80% of the UK do not agree with.
Tesla is circling the drain in Europe--and actually everywhere. The stock has only lost 17% this year so far but will be lower soon. STOCKHOLM (Reuters) -Registrations of new Tesla cars in Sweden fell 84% in August from a year earlier, to 210 vehicles, data from Mobility Sweden showed on Monday.
This photo was taken of miners at the end of their shift during the Gilded Age before they were unionized. This Labor Day remember the blood, sweat, and tears that those before us paid to give the working class the basic rights we enjoy today. #UnionStrong #HappyLaborDay #NoGodsNoMasters
Won't riot about Water Companies, cost £16bn a year Won't riot about Banks, steal £82bn a year. Won't riot about Supermarkets, take £20bn a year, 4x in 3 years. Won't riot about Energy Companies, stealing £130bn a year. Will riot about Asylum Seekers, cost less than £3bn a year.
You couldn't script this stuff. The flag fanatics are defacing war memorials now it seems www.cornwalllive.com/news/cornwal...
Surely that means war with the war memorial protection faction of bigotted beer swillers?
It says an awful lot about how, objectively, bad at both policy and communications this government is by managing to get what is liable to be an incredibly positive and popular policy knocked off the headlines by one which is based on pure cruelty.
Reform have arguably had more coverage for a content-free press conference than the Govt has for a major policy development affecting millions of parents
Brexit never ended, and it never will
This is my flag.
Outstanding.
No matter what one thinks of Maduro, a US attack on Venezuela would not have any more legitimacy than Russia's invasion of Ukraine.
Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro: “Venezuela is confronting the biggest threat that has been seen on our continent in the last 100 years. “A situation like this has never been seen.”
This should be getting far more attention from the media, and it should be investigated as a hate crime. A 14-year-old Black teen was targeted, beaten, and dehumanized with racial slurs by white teens while people stood around cheering. 1/4
They’re back harassing us.
Sickening footage from Nuneaton tonight, where a Sky News interview with a local businessman was disrupted by racists hurling abuse. Another local said, "Warwickshire Council Council has gone to Reform... It's given certain people a licence to be aggressive and racist."
Nine former CDC directors basically said RFK Jr is a threat to public health.
Morning: No. 10 recognises it's operation was malfunctioning, and that it had ceded narrative control to Reform; childcare policy launches. By late afternoon: Assisted by racist BBC questioning, the PM proves incapable of articulating a positive multicultural patriotism. Very depressing.
Starmer has one week to stop f*cking about on this, otherwise I give up on him.
He's going to turn up drugged to the eyeballs doing the dance of no discernible rhythm.
Police officer ‘punched in face’ as four arrested at London anti-asylum protest Met reports ‘small number’ of aggressive masked protesters at what began as peaceful demonstration at Canary Wharf www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2025...
If the witch hunts restarted tomorrow, Keir Starmer would say people have legitimate concerns about women who can float on water
Starmer has appointed a former trustee of Sex Matters as Number 20's director of communications. Every day this Labour Government declares itself my enemy and the ally of international authoritarianism.
Oh nothing, just the actual Prime Minister telling people they’re entirely correct to drive asylum seekers out of their communities
is it only asylum seekers our Labour Prime Minister would object to living next to or would the sentiment apply to black and brown people in general? if merely the former, would he like to explain how he knows people he sees, say, in the street, actually are asylum seekers and not citizens?
well on the one hand it's bad for democracy and social cohesion that Keir Starmer is trying to appeal to the racists by pretending to be one of them, but on the other hand it's not actually working and the racists still don't want to vote for him
All he had to say was he had no problem with his daughter walking past a hotel housing people escaping war etc, but no, he had to go for the Reform vote. Fuck him!
Asked by the BBC how he would feel if "your daughter was having to walk past one of these [asylum] hotels every day?" Keir Starmer replies that "I completely get it". "I understand why people want the hotels closed. I want them closed".
Ok but hear me out, what if we taxed the fuck out of really rich people
The “British person” in this instance was me; I do find it deeply amusing that, as well as being extremely racist about British Indians and their role in British food culture, this America has managed to name the curry that was most famously created in Britain
A polish friend said similar is happening there and it definitely happened in the UK
He's been rushed to New Hampshire Total Landscaping
And her t shirt has a really crappy attempt at graphic design
If we don’t stand up for these victims, who will ?
god that's incredibly disheartening
Keir Starmer has appointed as his new Comms Director Tim Allan who was a board member of the hate group Sex Matters. It's no longer even pretending to adhere to its Manifesto promise to "remove indignities for trans people who deserve recognition and acceptance."
Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein wasn’t just a story — it was a prophecy about hubris, recklessness, and the chaos created by people who refuse accountability.
They should do it anyway for the environmental benefits.
Gary Lineker is up for "Presenter of the Year" at this year's National TV Awards. I can imagine that if he won it would "ruffle a few feathers". It's alright, you can skip past Mrs Brown's Boys. You know you want to. Vote here. nationaltvawards.com/vote
Please vote for Gary Lineker. It’s a vote for decency, honesty and truth. You can ignore all the other categories if you like. www.nationaltvawards.com/vote
