What 2024 teaches us the importance of the real world. Go speak to real people in real life. Go read a book. You can’t trust everything on the internet. Life is not black and white. It’s very much shades of grey.

A newborn baby had to stay in hospital for 5.5 months in the USA in 2011 after being born premature. The hospital sent their parents this bill after 3 months. Imagine what they would have done if they weren't insured or couldn't pay their percentage of this bill?

'No-show Nigel' as Farage dodges media and protesters during whirlwind Aberdeen and Hamilton farce. "For a man who seems to ooze self-confidence, and who claims to speak for real people, Farage’s whistle-stop tour of Scotland has shown he has incredibly thin skin." @davidbol.bsky.social

The Telegraph is now having to publish so many corrections to articles where it attempts to find *any angle whatsoever* to attack net-zero polices that it makes sense to start tracking them here. These are the ones published since Labour won the election. "We are happy to correct the record."

Absolutely surreal to have lived through the Napster days and watched as the titans of industry moved hell and high water to lock down any possible chance that someone's song might get swapped online without giving the studios a cut and now those same people are just like "well we gotta steal music"

YES Luddites have never been anti tech. But they've always been anti corporate owners using tech to disadvantage workers This distinction matters, I think Because who benefits from pushing anti luddite propaganda? A great piece, imo theconversation.com/im-a-luddite...

lol I just got momentarily hysterical thinking about the fact that the New York Times got its managing director for communications to confirm on a Saturday that it is standing by its reporting that young women in China have tiny hands and this is why Apple has its factories there

Yet more evidence for my feeling that private equity is a menace. If essential facilities like care homes can’t be provided by the public sector, they should be strictly regulated, including on price.

This is a view looking down on a portion of Saturn's rings. Find the white structures along the edge of the ring, near the top. Now look at their shadows, cast on the rings themselves just below them. Those white structures are giant towers of icy ring particles, some rising more than 2 km.

Getting the proletariat to facilitate and celebrate the destruction of their own great institutions, like the NHS and BBC, is a masterful piece of manipulation on the part of the bourgeoisie and their media and political puppets. Well played, fascist pig billionaires.
