What I did not vote for was the steady normalisation of migrant scapegoating, a welfare stance that treats poverty as a moral failure, an NHS approach that feels technocratic at best and negligent at worst.

@mrjamesob.bsky.social I love you James, but I can’t understand your indifference to the increasingly bizarre & murky China spy case.

We flounced out of the EU on the say-so of politicians who lied to us. And what a total shitshow that’s turned out to be. The polar opposite of what they promised. Now the call to flounce out of the ECHR. By the same people. Telling the same lies. Has the country been kicked in the head by a horse?

Just a statement of the bleeding obvious.
For a country that was supposed to fetishise this, a bizarre state of affairs.

After years of complaining about cancel culture, the current administration has taken it to a new and dangerous level by routinely threatening regulatory action against media companies unless they muzzle or fire reporters and commentators it doesn’t like.
Let’s be clear about what happened to Jimmy Kimmel
Trump’s most brazen attack on free speech yet.

I love how Renaissance painters are doing so well until they get to the babies and then it's like, "I have never seen a baby. Presumably they look like tiny, creepy old men?"
Renaissance painters:
I'm drawing a baby atm and it's crazy how weird their anatomy is

If he's proposing we begin negotiating peace with Russia once Ukrainian troops have seized Moscow and Putin has shot himself in a bunker, I guess I'd be ok with that.
Feels a bit extreme though.

If your concern is that a white person who pleaded guilty received a sentence within the guidelines maybe you *want* two tier justice.

Being against vaccines when diseases are rampant (measles, Covid) is like adding chlorine to the gene pool. Darwin is watching.

Fwiw, I don't think McSweeney is to blame. Starmer is to blame, for giving him such a prominent position. The election guy should be a prominent voice in the room. He should not be the room.

Of all the things that never happened, this never happened the most.
Among the many oddities is this paragraph. If you try and “share a joke” with a stranger at a bus stop, then *you* are the person who has failed to even remotely integrate into London life. It’s the first rule anyone learns.

America's descent into suppression of dissent 🧵
I've been tracking Trump's actions since Jan and have included 93 actions that I consider to suppress dissent.
They fall into 4 domains and their use is quite different over time. 1/16
