University of Toronto law professor David Dyzenhaus, says that Harvard Law professor Adrien Vermeule “moved away from just being interested in [Carl] Schmitt,” a former Nazi scholar, “to actually embracing all dimensions of Schmitt’s theory: both the political dimension & the legal dimension…” 1/

On one level this is completely bonkers but on another it’s normal behaviour given the history
This is incredibly worth reading in light of what is happening now and the basis on which Trump and Rubio are pursuing charges against Maduro.

Well I reposted this but it’s been deleted which is odd as it’s on news sites. Bonkers concentration of billionaires on their superyachts off St Barths right now. They are there for the fireworks. Someone is labouring a point somewhere

Searched back through Blue Sky for this.
Which is one of the best things I saw all year in any medium.
This is one of the most beautiful things I have witnessed, the craft here is impeccable.

Flambéed gammon for Christmas!
Oh GB News. Have a day off and enjoy a mince pie.

How dare I talk positively about migration & refugee rights at this time of year that should be about *checks notes* good tidings and warm wishes.

Tune in at 3pm to watch and judge for yourself.

Merry Christmas everyone!

Great that @zackpolanski.bsky.social is having these conversations. @meadwaj.bsky.social seems to be leading on developing humane sustainable economics and it will be interesting to see where Green Party policy goes over the next couple of years

As someone who remembers the “yuck factor” arguments relating to genetic engineering and the Brent Spar campaign I’m unfashionably supportive of research not just into the technology of geoengineering, but also into whether an equitable governance system is possible

Watched this earlier and was struck by the conclusion that the idea our blessed liberal democracies are in danger of succumbing to fascism is nonsense. It’s always been there, we’ve just exported it, and now it’s coming home

I’m afraid Pandora’s box is well and truly open on this one. It feels almost inevitable that it will happen. An outright ban will never be agreed so we are once again in the worst of all possible worlds - an emerging technology with potentially disastrous consequences and no guardrails

Went to see Grayson Perry today. It’s was his last show and he’s been all over the country. It’s an interactive show and he asks who you’d vote for. Picture shows Greens at 42% and apparently it’s the same *everywhere*. Labour have lost the middle class

“They’re anti-Nato at a time when the world is more volatile than it has ever been. The Green party thinks it’s all right to sell drugs and there should be no restrictions.”

This sort of bollocks cost him my support years ago. Total bullshitter

Starmer says he’s "taking the gloves off" and that the Greens are "nuts"

Big talk from the PM of vibes based cruelty and trickle down cowardice.
