Yet again, begs the question question, how is this in any way democratic?

A question every reporter should be asking Trump and Republicans: If Trump doesn't trust his own Director of National Intelligence, and by extension, US intelligence, then which country's intelligence is he relying upon?

What a time to be alive. The president of the United States doing battle damage assessment via sketchy OSINT accounts. I had blocked this particular account some time ago.

Adolf Hitler was always defending himself, according to him he never attacked anybody. So many people these days are copy and pasting the Nazi playbook.

I swear every time I see a push notification from BBC news it’s some version of: ‘Reform may have lost an election/suffered a massive blow/erupted into civil war…but here is why its actually good news for Farage’s party’

People don’t realize just how much damage this administration is doing to American science—and confidence in American science globally. Everyone I speak with inside is horrified…

Today's by-election in Hamilton, Larkhall and Stonehouse. Vote wisely. You have the power to stop fascism growing in Scotland. DO NOT LET THE FASCISTS IN. They are grifters. They do not care for you. #SmashReform

The people are not bad. Unfortunately the governments don’t reflect the will of the people.

Remember this picture, & others like it, every time you hear someone in your city say "we're not Amsterdam." This was #Amsterdam in the 1970s. Many of the cities we admire made better choices regarding cars in the past. and are still making better choices today. Better choices instead of excuses.

Remember when Ronald Reagan literally had Alzheimer's during his 2nd term, his wife ran the country with astrology, the Republicans all covered it up and turned him into an icon naming airports and highways after him all over the country? Yeah, that actually happened.

Listened to part of @natashadevon.bsky.social’s show from last night after the fact. My take on the first question on who do Labour represent is rather simple. It’s not about class per se, it’s about what attitude you have about people who are struggling.

There were two teams in the world better than Arsenal this season: Liverpool and PSG. But not for injuries, it might have been none.

PSG have won the Champions League, at long last, and all it took was eight managers, 14 years, £2bn in transfer fees, more in wages, one hyperinflationary spiral and the complete restricting of European football. Easy to love the team. Less so the project. observer.co.uk/news/sport/a...

This was a blast — check it out! @gilduran.com might actually enjoy dunking on the delusions of tech billionaires more than I do. We talked about how Mars is awful, there's no AI utopia or apocalypse coming, and more.

This is one of the best written, researched and informed article on the entire Musk - DOGE saga that I’ve read. Kudos to you @annabower.bsky.social and may the WITAOD quest yield answers.

I love how MAGA still can't decide whether Covid-19 is the most nefarious bioweapon ever devised, or a harmless cold you'd be stupid to vaccinate yourself from.

Stop the @bsky.app bashing. We’re all under a tremendous strain. We’re not perfect. I block when I need to, but ignore most foolishness. Don’t become goaded into leaving a platform that’s doing almost all the right things. To organize for 2026, we need to stay in communication w/each other.

One thing I've noticed is that Bluesky is a lot more rightwing/centrist when it comes to discussing Palestine. There isn't much pushback to the gross Lib spin here. Too many people who should know better are falling in line with the 'the left is antisemitic' ADL type line.

Brilliant job there Labour - your voters think you're anti immigration (while they're pro) and reform and Tories think you're pro immigration (while they're anti)

Glad to see Hamza Yousaf telling Anas Sarwar what a prick he is for supporting Starmer's immigration line. "Our fathers wouldn't have been able to live and prosper in Scotland under this leadership."

Just because 99/100 scientists agree that it's bad to open a portal to the hell dimension doesn't mean we should immediately discount the opposing views of the scientist employed by Open A Portal To The Hell Dimension Inc.

No one who cares about wildlife and ecosystems is now likely to vote Labour in 2029. Or about Gaza. Or poverty. Or inequality. Or international aid. Or corporate power. Or democratic reform. Or racism. Or trans rights. So that's goodbye to just about its entire vote. What are they playing at?

Disappointing end to a disappointing season. A game of fine margins and clear that we lacked the squad depth to be competitive across both competitions. A small matter of qualifying for the UCL and then a crucial summer. #Arsenal
