The rich and powerful don’t get their wages garnished when they default on a loan. They declare bankruptcy and end up paying pennies on the dollar, if anything. Like Trump did many, many times.

American social media platforms are banned in Russia. Have you noticed Donald isn't sanctioning anyone over that?

I’m entering The Teenager as potential winner of #Duvetknowitschristmas
He’s had to move from his bedroom to the unconverted attic
Cardboard floor & headboard is a nice touch which I’m sure he appreciates
He think it looks like he’s living in a meth den

Do follow Rhodri for one of the great moments of the year as adults throughout the land, head home for the most age innapropriate Christmas sleeping arrangements in their parents' homes. And help raise a bit of dosh for charity while pointing and laughing.
Tomorrow evening it’ll be my annual duty to vaguely shepherd the activity on the #duvetknowitschristmas hashtag and urge people to give small sums to charity. 7.30pm? Something like that?

This is an almost shockingly wise essay. I'm glad I've finally read it.
There Is No Mary Problem in ‘It’s a Wonderful Life’
George’s vision of his wife without him is essential to the film, but critics continue to miss its true—and profound—meaning.

"Government officials"? Seems the Trump administration has already intervened in UK politics by putting the LibDems back into a coalition government 😀
(Anyway the intervention in another country's politics here is coming from the USA to the UK, not the other way around. Kindly fuck off.)

Keir Starmer now faces a choice between vocally condemning American interference in UK and EU politics in ways that will inevitably draw Trumpist anger towards Labour or folding in the face of Trumpian pressure thus fuelling LibDem, Green, SNP and Plaid accusations that Starmer is a coward.

The State Department has just banned five Europeans from entering the U.S., falsely alleging they are involved in censorship of American citizens.
The only censorship here is coming from the Trump administration. My statement is below.

Thought this was a v good point/explanation of why we go so big on Christmas bsky.app/profile/amrk...
I think the answer to this - are we the people in the world who care the most about December 25th - is clearly yes right? We have no national day or thanksgiving, no Christmas meal on Christmas Eve. It’s all Christmas Day. And very very cross community, I know Jews Mulisms and Sikhs who put trees up
What I’m asking is, are we, the British, the most Christmassy people on earth ?

NIGEL FARAGE STOLE MY SATSUMAS
2. New customs rules due to the UK now being outside of the EU single market.
The extra time, effort, paperwork, and risk of importing such perishable low value fruit means that almost all satsumas get sent to the easily accessible markets inside the EU.

This surely has to be the final nail in the coffin for #Cycleway1 as we know it, surely @willnorman.co.uk? If Haringey is free to do as they please on route, at any cost, then it's worthless. It's time to look at an alternative alignment. @londoncycling.bsky.social @haringeycyclists.bsky.social
Just when you thought #Cycleway1 couldn’t get any worse! It was awful enough that the route takes us through a seedy alleyway, but Haringey Council thought it would go one further and install these barriers!!! Good luck to cargo bike riders. Depressing. @willnorman.co.uk @mikehakata.bsky.social

Another beautiful Shchedryk performance amidst ruins.
It was set in what used to be a DTEK thermal power plant — now destroyed by russia.
The contrast between russia’s destructive nature and the Ukrainian will to create beauty even in the darkest times is palpable.
