It's come to my attention that likes are public, cannot be made private, and are being used to draw inferences about people's character. I'll say now: likes are a matter of what a person sees & them clicking a button. They're not a declaration of allegiance. They're a nod, "Nice", a thumbs up.

Why is #Labour banning UK children from using social media, & not REGULATING this foreign-owned social media?

If you regulate it it's safe for everyone. Whatever their age. Right now our government is using a social media site that 💥literally MONETIZES the sexual abuse of women and children💥.

Grim that Van Der Beek had to flog off all his memories to pay for his cancer treatment, and NOW, after that, once he's dead, Hollywood ploughs in with the big crowdfunder. His family could have had that stuff to remember him.

It's often said that sitting in a chair for years will destroy your back, your hips and your sacroiliac joints. Captain Ake is hundreds of years old, sits in the most unconventional ways possible in the Captain's chair and is as lithe as a cat. Maybe we could learn from Ake?

ICE cannot continue to unlawfully enter homes without warrants AND use lethal force without consequence.

The Senate must take into account how unlawful ICE officers are acting and DO SOMETHING. No hopes and prayers from people with power to stop this.

Brooklyn Park police chief Mark Bruley: "We're hearing people being stopped with no cause & being demanded to show paperwork to determine if they're here legally. We started hearing from our police officers the same complaints. Every one of these individuals is a person of color... it has to stop"

So aside from tipping tens of millions of people into misery and penury, they also encouraged people to rise up against their horrible government then cheered them on while they got mowed down. And are bragging about this openly, on camera.

This. Do it. Because even if you think you've got nothing to offer (like me), you have your voice and your reasoning and your enthusiasm. And that matters.
The GE isn't tomorrow. It's 3 years from now. Stop panicking, pick a party you actively WANT to win, and throw your whole self into making that happen.

Because what the Greens are doing right now (and in fairness to them, what Reform have done in the last year) show that it's very possible.

Green MPs support the Hillsborough Law being enacted in full — including Ian Byrne’s amendments to make all public officials, including intelligence officers, truly accountable.

Justice delayed, is justice denied.

'the nuclear review confirms a false narrative...already...circulated by certain industry lobby groups & think tanks...repeated exaggeration of the costs of preventing harm to nature - and minimisation of the impact to wildlife'

@craigbennett3.bsky.social pulls no punches
UK governments of all stripes have looked at cutting planning rules & 'red tape' to produce growth

Previous evidence-based reviews have contradicted this view

This UK govt is first one to take forward cutting of protections without bothering with evidence
