The only foreseeable outcome of the newly announced US Security Strategy is that it pushes European nations closer together.
What do people do when under assault - either militarily or rhetorically?
Create animosity, expect consequences.

Massively in favour of taxing gambling (out of existence).
Wild that Betfred think this will drum up sympathy
Sorry people who lose their jobs, but frankly they can shut down all of their stores and I wouldn't give a shit
No empathy for companies who vacuum money out of the pockets of vulnerable people without paying back in

Betfred says all its shops may close if Reeves hikes gambling tax
The company's co-founder says it would be forced to close all its sites, putting 7,500 jobs at risk, if gambling taxes go up.

Since I'm poor now and have had to cancel all my subscriptions I'm struck by the insane volume of betting/gambling adverts that have replaced my subs.
It's predatory, morally void and criminal. And the adverts themselves are repulsively cringe. 🤢

Sick to fucking death of being rinsed for every penny every day.
I've not lived pay cheque to pay cheque for years. Rather, I've lived pay cheque to one-week-to pay cheque.
It very much looks like it'll be two-weeks-to from now on.

Many in the EU still seem not to understand that Ukraine is part of Europe — and that russia is, therefore, invading Europe.
It's high time to recognize this and take action if we don't want the war to spread to other European countries

One of the things I hate most about the future - people have 'access to you at all times'.
I have no alone time.
If I reply every moment I receive a message I wouldn't do *anything* else with my life.
Yet a reply is expected within 0.0001 second. As if I'm phased out of existence unless needed.

No-one is entitled to your time and undivided attention that exact second unless they're paying for it.

There is no better city in the UK than Sheffield.
Mid-pandemic I moved here without knowing what I was getting myself into.
There are many things I would change if I could go back in time, but moving here is not one of them, no sir.

'We ignore it because it is painful'.
I've reflected on this a lot today, and this is absolutely right.
We are at war with Russia. I've agreed with it for years but get laughed off when I discuss it.
This is our fight - for our values, our security, our way of life.

1/7 THREAD: Europe is at war.
Not in theory. Not in the future. Now.
russia is invading a European country, bombing civilians daily, launching drones into EU airspace, and waging hybrid war.
We ignore it because it’s painful. But denial won’t stop the war — it will spread it
