2 ways Amazon can (ab)use this - No1 eg they buy 1m licences for a book. They pay the publisher per sale. 5yrs later, licence expires, and they resell the licence cutting out the publisher. No2 you buy a book yr govt bans - it disappears from your library. goodereader.com/blog/kindle/...

www.theguardian.com/world/2025/f... More akin to extortion - The US is extorting Ukraine. Like a protection racket . Like mobsters. Like monsters.

Canada, Greenland, Denmark, Panama, and Gaza could not immediately be reached for comment.

www.theguardian.com/world/2025/f... If this isn't pretty much Ribbontrop Molotov pact vs2, I don't know what is.

www.instagram.com/p/DGDxbyuI7i... As urgent a reminder today as it was three years ago.

www.lbc.co.uk/world-news/n... Let the Russians or the Chinese handle it - they're all big-bollocks papa-knows-best know-it-alls, so yeah, they can solve this problem - thanks guys!

Meduza reviews new revelations by The Insider about the media producer behind some of Russia's biggest propaganda content. Meet Margarita Zhitnitskaya, whom the West has not sanctioned for some reason.

It's a race to the bottom. Nige Farridge calls for cruelty and so Labour's gotta follow? What happens when it's Trans people, or Muslims, or just plain non-white migrants? Judging by this response Starmer will lockstep follow suit. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

🔥 AMAZING. Today, the Baltic states disconnected their power grids from that of Russia. It’s taken years of prep. What a moment.

Legal fund for Luigi Mangione. Who knew there'd be backlash against a company that rapes and rapes and Rapes people of their money and futures. givesendgo.com/legalfund-ce...

F'ing Brilliant. Eat shiz n die "Robert Galbraith". www.instagram.com/reel/DFIrURW...

www.independent.co.uk/news/world/a... So much lying by a fucking idiot to an audience of fucking idiots. Fentanyl gets smuggled across the border at actual check points, majority of those caught are White Americans.

Oh dear. Too bad. So sad. Calling out that America was on the path to a fascist theocracy - in 1986. www.instagram.com/reel/DEN7FQX...

No1 beneficiary of DEI? WHITE WOMEN. No2? Latinos. No3? Asians. No4? Veterans etc etc....No7? Black people. Black civil rights lawyers and advocates are Still fighting for All minorities. By every metric they could say Fxck All You B1tches for voting for Trump. fortune.com/2025/01/31/t...

That seems a pretty rapid population expansion - wonder if they're giving everybody the heads up that there's more people in the UK Already? Apparently the supermarkets today are selling food for way more than ONS figures officially currently indicate.

Hey there Luigi... www.instagram.com/reel/DD0oCyc...

Almost too painfully true to be funny. Incredible how a joke in hindsight was actually a shrill warning. www.instagram.com/reel/DDGVzIK...

Unfortunately how I feel about the US at this time. A nation of accomplices.

Accurate.

www.instagram.com/reel/DEG18ua... This. Funny because it's true. Happy New Year one and all.

Why do CEOs feel compelled to lie? To convince themselves, or others? Our own lived experiences tells us this is a lie. finance.yahoo.com/news/amazon-...

The "win" isn't what it seems unfortunately. The proposed law was debated, and Passed. No guarantee the courts will always be on the side of sanity - look at SCOTUS.

www.independent.co.uk/life-style/c... Correct! Had to throw out my last Cadbury's purchase - it tasted like chocolate-flavour wax. Bone fide grim lol. There's a lot better out there.

YES! www.theguardian.com/world/live/2...

edition.cnn.com/2024/12/11/p... F that noise. He's got more urgent fish to fry. He does it, it helps the Trump voting Hispanics and farmers who believed they'd be safe. He fails and he's blamed by CNN and it's ilk for "abandoning the American dream". America needs to learn from the pain.

Rachel Reeves says closer UK and EU ties will boost economic growth www.bbc.com/news/article... No shit sherlock. Because cutting those ties was pretty much the same as sawing away at our own Achilles tendons.

www.theguardian.com/world/2024/d... I suspect the Trump admin r vested in the chaos being stirred up by Yoon, and GOP bigwigs have more than an academic interest in how the imposition of martial law was planned, and how it failed. Valuable lessons - in what mistakes to avoid.
