Oddly fascinated by the BBC's ability to use accurate language in headlines about Germany, but not the US.

Last month, Sen. Deb Fischer's (R-NE) husband refused to shake the Vice President's hand. Yesterday, he tried to shake Doug Emhoff's hand. The Second Gentleman replied: "Why would you try to shake my hand when you wouldn’t shake my wife’s hand?” REPOST if you love Doug Emhoff!

Sometimes I feel hopeless about what is happening to the NHS and what people are doing about it. I think we either need to go all in, find the millions of people who care and get a *lot* louder, or we give up. I want to go all in, but I can’t go all in alone. Share if you think we need to fight.

Jeff Bezos never wanted this cartoon to become public. He killed it, and as a result, pulitzer prize editorial cartoonist Ann Telnaes quit. Make sure everyone sees this cartoon.

If you care about the future of the NHS & you see this on Boxing Day, please could you share this? If we want privatisation to be removed from the NHS, NHS campaigners like me have a *lot* of work to do next year and…I’d just like to see if people care enough about this for our campaigning to work…

The main argument for a Strategic BItcoin Reserve seems to be that Bitcoin holders worry about an impending shortage of greater fools and need the US government to act as the greatest fool of last resort.

If Justin Baldoni can harass Blake Lively & then orchestrate a successful hate campaign against her—despite her being more famous and accomplished— it underscores how devastating the impact would be on younger, lesser known actresses. How many women have been successful ‘buried’?

It’s critical to connect this to the expert reporting of @kattenbarge.bsky.social, who uncovered media manipulation in the Depp Heard case. youtu.be/P1IWzmi_T4Y?... Thee kinds of campaigns work because misogyny is such a powerful tool for PR agencies to wield. Blake Lively is a victim here.

The government's own commissioned report highlighted quite clearly that the NHS is too small and is grossly under-resourced. Despite this, Labour continues to focus on “reform” and on pushing more NHS resources into the private sector | Dr Daniel Goyal @dangoyal.bsky.social

Private healthcare is in the news a lot because of UnitedHealth. I have written a book about how politicians have been decimating the NHS and enabling privatisation to infiltrate the service. The Telegraph review of it was pretty negative (!), but readers have given it a 4.6/5 ⭐️ review on Amazon..
