What we learned yesterday. The Times They Are a-Changin'

In an uncertain world, how do we make decisions? youtu.be/lRGBNGz2dgo?... Economists assume that we don't need to make decisions because they think we are possessed of perfect knowledge, so knowing what to do is innate to us. But that's nonsense. So, how do we decide what to do?

For those who have forgotten, in 1953, the USA and UK led a coup d'état in Iran which overthrew the democratically elected secular PM Mohammad Mosaddegh—to install the autocratic rule of the shah Mohammad Reza Pahlavi and thereby protect British oil interests in Iran. #StandWithIranians #EndAllWars

Good pupper

So let me get this right: the British Government wants to raise taxes and spend more on "defence" so it can send fighter jets to defend genocidal Middle Eastern governments when they preemptively attack their neighbours, and those neighbours retaliate?

@dodgers-team.bsky.social Great Job! 😒 www.latimes.com/sports/dodge...

This time-lapse video of protesters marching down Broadway in Oakland for No Kings Day gives an idea of how many people turned out today @sfchronicle.com

Private equity bidders trump rival to buy doctors' surgeries, hospitals and hospices with £1.7bn Assura bid. NHS estate privatised by Tories/Blair, now bought/sold for profit. NHS pays escalating rents, less money left for frontline services. All part of creeping privatisation

Truth.

We mean nothing to them.

This.

Remarkable. MSNC: "I want to reiterate this has been 100% peaceful." Seconds later, LA County sheriffs start firing on the crowd. Yet again, "law enforcement" deliberately escalated.

Holy crap! No Kings Philly.

Facts.

Oops

A British government which insists that it will not consent to Scotland having a say on its own future is conceding the UK is not a union at all. It’s a prison. indyposterboy.scot/precious-uni...

The Guardian is discussing a supposed crisis for Rachael Reeves today, when no such crisis exists. Whether she meets her fiscal rules is irrelevant. Poverty, poor housing, and suffering children are the realities they should be talking about. Why aren't they? www.taxresearch.org.uk/Blog/2025/06...

TODAY WAS ONE OF THE GREATEST DAYS OF MY LIFE. IT WAS A PEAK EXPERIENCE TO BE IN A SEA OF 80,000 OF MY KINDRED SPIRITS. REVEREND BARBER GAVE A SPEECH THAT MARTIN LUTHER WOULD HAVE BEEN PROUD OF. I AM SO PROUD OF MY NEW HOME PHILADELPHIA. THE GHOST OF THE REVOLUTIONARIES WERE WITH US.

#ElonMusk talked about #CivilWar in the UK some months ago. He got the 'U' right but then should have added the 'S' and 'A' socialistworker.co.uk/us-elections...

just watched this netflix documentary on the oklahoma city bombing and once again i'm struck by how so many of the popular media takes on this event just avoid entirely the connection to organized white supremacism

Eight years 💚 I will never forget, and I will never stop talking about #Grenfell.

Troops marching out of step behind an empty mobile country and western stage captures everything our commander-in-chief has brought to our military.

MSNBC reporter in gas mask in Los Angeles: I think it was Sheriffs deploying CS gas, tear gas, pepper spray, and flash bang grenades in large numbers. Mounted units pushing against protesters.., every single gathering I saw today was 100% peaceful

Good doggie

when no one attends your shitty dictator parade

The political assassin in MN appears to be a Christian nationalist & an adherent of the New Apostolic Reformation (w/ which Mike Johnson is also aligned). Christian nationalism is a heresy & one of the gravest threats to our nation. Here's a survey on it from @prri.org. prri.org/research/a-c...

I read this over on Linkedin - and thought it was a great summary of the events of yesterday. Well done to our American friends for demonstrating what’s important to you and for having the courage to get out and support democracy: Here’s the link www.linkedin.com/posts/benjam...
