Casual reminder that the myth of “pulling yourself up by your bootstraps” is a cruel hoax designed to convince poor people from all walks of life that the injustices they face are a result of their own actions, rather than an oppressive system rigged against them.

Literally nothing could ever make Breton happier than this. I wouldn't be surprised if he put them up to it.
Former EU Commissioner Thierry Breton has been sanctioned by the United States for threatening Twitter with consequences for possible inaction on removal of illegal content and disinformation requirements. #Image(s) #EuropeanUnion

CEO of Lush says that if you don't agree with his stance in support of the Palestinian people and Gaza

Shop somewhere else

I've been a fan of Lush for years, just wish isn't wasn't so expensive! - Still, another reason to keep shopping there ☺️

Kamal al-Helbawy, the spokesman for the anti-Semitic Muslim Brotherhood, appeared on BBC only one time, in 2011.

Nigel Farage, the anti-Semitic head of Reform UK, has appeared on BBC QT 38 times since then, is a nightly feature on the news, and had his own show on GB News

Who is the bigger danger?

OK then, what was the action? What has the Trump admin done? What proposals have they made? They have only ever offered “thoughts and prayers” on social media. Nothing else.

This is a great example of the @gralefrit.bsky.social observation that the funniest joke is the one told between family members in the front row of a funeral.
Will Arnett was on Conan and told a story about how Conan dealt with the death of his parents by accusing Jason Bateman of killing them. It’s so funny.

Despite what you hear from fossil fuel-funded politicians, the U.K has just generated a record amount of clean, domestic wind energy.

Enough to power 23 million homes!

U.K decarbonisation policy is a recipe for energy security.
