no it’s actually because of the slavery

Never has any leader had so many people wanting to make the argument that “not wearing any clothes actually makes the emperor better dressed if you think about it.”

Spaghetti alla Vongole for dinner tonight. It's amazing what you can cook up in a motorhome.

There are 2 previous historical cases of countries destroying their science and universities, crippling them for decades: Lysenkoism in the USSR and Nazi Germany. The Trump administration will be the 3rd. It's not just budgets but research, institutions, expertise, and training the next generation.

Neo-liberals, always ready to bend the knee to money. No matter how blood soaked that money is.

I'm Dr. Annie Andrews. I’m a pediatrician, not a politician. But either way I know how to handle people who are full of sh*t. Today I am announcing my campaign for US Senate to replace Lindsey Graham. Share this if you're with me. www.youtube.com/watch?v=J8wM...

Good morning☕

it’s really, really fascinating how both porn and drag are the two main visual influences on right-wing women’s cosmetic presentation right now

Today is National Biscuit Day, and it’s about time that I populated this account with biscuit (cookie) sets from the past few years. Here are some of my favourites. 🧵 First up, a set inspired by the delicious designs of William Morris and John Henry Dearle.

The man remains truly excellent and this is going to be amazing www.attitude.co.uk/culture/sir-...

Ex Tory MP Steve Baker is calling for ‘a safety net’ for MP’s who lose their jobs??? Poor diddums says it’s hard to get a job when you’re so well known? The same Steve Baker, who voted for every single austerity measure on the people of this country. Mr Baker, go fuck yourself!

Socialism is what they called public power. Socialism is what they called social security.    Socialism is what they called the growth of free and independent labor organizations.   Socialism is their name for almost anything that helps all the people. —Harry Truman, 1952

Marco Rubio, who has personally ordered the deportation of multiple people solely on the basis of their protected speech, announces that he will restrict visas for foreign officials who "are complicit in censoring Americans." Free speech for me but not for thee - that's the Trump way.

Marco Rubio literally had a student kidnapped off the street for co-authoring an oped criticizing her university. And now he's complaining about censorship?

Morning.

“I removed the whip to punish MPs who opposed me by supporting my moral mission”

Len the extremist right wing butcher in our village is delighted. Tommy Robinson has been released from prison. Len is proudly showing customers photos of Tommy being reunited with his family. That’s Tommy (top left). 🇬🇧

"It's like the fall of the roman empire!" "You mean a 400 year gradual shift away from dense urbanization in about a quarter of the empire because of a combination of outward and inward pressures?" "No" "Oh so you mean the transfer of major political power to economic centers?" "No"

Tommy Robinson has been released from prison.

Just one of the many glowing reviews we receive here. 🤷‍♂️

They pretend that the USA was founded as a Christian nation. Then they pretend and insist they’re Christians. Then they govern like the motherfucking antichrist.

Some days it’s really brought home forcibly that we as a species are simply incapable of saving ourselves.

If you're still on Twitter, this is what you're arguing with.

So one feeble old man jerking around the world’s economy doesn’t activate any sort of ancient league of shadow warriors? Mislead by Hollywood again!
