"Utterly delusional" does not even come close. archive.ph/OVHMg

They are deliberately crossing the red lines, in order to make the unacceptable commonplace and, eventually, acceptable again.

History buffs will know that every authoritarian leader eventually converges on some version of: "I *am* the state. I can not break the law, I am the law, the law is instantiated in me." Our march to authoritarianism so far has been excruciatingly by-the-book. Hitting every beat. No surprises.

🚨Breaking🚨 Sir Stephen Fry calls on Keir Starmer to bring ‘effectively bankrupt’ Thames Water into public ownership. 💧 So that ‘it works for all of us, people and planet.’ 🌎 Agree? Sign our petition. Link in comments 👇🏽 #SirStephenFry #ThamesWater #PublicOwnership

🤦‍♂️ So Labour are making ads boasting about deportations, with Reform-style branding. Why are Labour trying to be like Farage and his mates? If only the Government put as much effort into creating a fast, fair and dignified asylum system.

Elon Musk just led a coup d'etat in the US. But the Democrats are a hopeless mess, and the US media is increasingly cowed. Not looking good for an already deeply compromised US democracy 👇 www.owenjones.news/p/elon-musk-...

The last Labour government creditably reduced child poverty. Starmer & Reeves' Labour Government - by maintaining the two-child benefit limit and cutting local housing allowance - looks set to increase the number of children growing up in poverty ... www.theguardian.com/society/2025...

Elon Musk is terrified of everyone knowing the names of the people who work for him. So do your work.

GB News, "Surely Brexit is a good thing?" Andy Dixon, Fisherman, "It's been bad. It hasn't worked out as the government promised.. Locally, in North Shields, it's been a bit of a disaster" GB News, "In what way?" Andy Dixon, "Red tape, documentation, it's 100x what it used to be"

No. And anyone who says it can is lying to you. Climate Emergency. There's a clue in the last word. www.bbc.com/news/article...

I can be as critical as anyone of the government's occasionally muddled message on growth but Look! At! This! Chart!! Anything they've done pales next to this GIGANTIC UNFORCED ERROR COMMITTED IN 2016! (fagpacket maths follows) on.ft.com/4hzyvbJ

The planet does not need more successful people. The planet desperately needs more peacemakers, healers, restorers, storytellers, and lovers of all kinds." — David W. Orr

I'm late for Burn's Night I know, but To a Mouse is such a beautiful & relevant poem "I'm truly sorry man's dominion, Has broken nature's social union, An' justifies that ill opinion, Which makes thee startle At me, thy poor, earth-born companion, An' fellow-mortal" www.scotland.org/events/burns...

I personally think that this is a far more appropriate name.

was mostly keeping it together until I read Kyle MacLachlan's tribute to David Lynch

This is likely the tech guy responsible for setting up the voicemail being forced to do the message after a week of emailing the Manchester team. Revenge has very long vowels.

My favourite thing about the Mark Zuckerberg interview is that he will be back on in 3 months crying about how he has been cancelled because all his users left and all his advertisers stopped. That will be hilarious.
