There are lies, damned lies, and the Ripe & Ready to Eat labels on avocados. And then there are the poisonous falsehoods disgorged by the Trump administration in a ceaseless torrent that destroys the idea objective truth and with it the fabric of democracy. Which was always the plan.

Repressive occupying forces often believe that a few acts of horrifically unjustified violence will get the public to forfeit freedom and kowtow to them, especially if the violent is well publicized. But it usually does not work that way.
A woman recording an ICE agent tells him "Shame on you."
The agent responds, "Have you all not learned from the past couple of days?"
"Learned what?" she asks
Then he knocks her phone out of her hand

All the data points to micro plastics being a massive human health issue, never mind the effects they're having throughout the natural world.
How is the plastics industry continuing to get away with pushing inconceivable amounts of toxic pollution into the environment, and our own bodies?

16. The most familiar carols do very well when someone takes a wire brush to the verdigris and polishes them up all nice, like. Danish choral composer John Høybye did that favour for 'God Rest Ye Merry, Gentlemen', here sung by I Dodici, which translates as 'The Dodici'.

15. A French Noël, which sounds like a double-entendre from the 1950s but is in fact a folk song that's been sort of absorbed as a carol. Coming from (probably) the Anjou region in (maybe) the 15th-16th Century, it's sung unusually not by shepherds, but shepherdesses.

When I arrived in the UK 25 years ago I had a job at a university that paid £21k. I could barely make ends meet but I worked hard and eventually I succeeded. I guess this Labour government considers young broke hardworking me a “taker”?
Fuck this.
