VG from @georgemonbiot.bsky.social but as others have said the historical analogy is wrong. Chamberlain wasn't a Nazi fellow-traveller. AfD supporter and far-right propagandist Goodwin is much closer to Oswald Mosley.

This is a sewing pattern. It is also a page from a late 14th century manuscript that is one of two primary sources for an important Icelandic saga (Sturlunga saga), but that was probably not important to the 17th century person who really needed a sewing pattern. #upcycling

There’s a massive crossover on this site between people who think they are rendered critically ‘unsafe’ by hearing the non violent opinions of others & people who think murder is good.

How is it that we never seem to have the conversation about how crime rates, & especially violent crime rates are at record lows, And yet our prison population keeps growing & our prisons are always full & in crisis… 🤔🤔 #r4today

4 emails in 48 hours from British SMEs saying they will no longer ship to the EU or Northern Ireland from mid December due to GPSR. (One upside of a niche hobby is the occasional early warning of SME trends).

Double standards are strong on the other place today.... Petition crew out in force for a vote that happened 4 months ago and ended in a landslide I know a vote from 8 years ago that is now viewed as a mistake and ended a tight 52/48 after being sold on a lie... Shall we revisit that too!? #fbpe

Outstanding survey design from the LSE. Item #1: asked for my age in the form dd/mm/yyyy. Item #2. Unable to leave "Age" blank even though it's supposedly voluntary to provide it.

It speaks volumes about how far down this hate filled rabbit hole the world is when the majority of Americans support a repeated sexual abusing, convicted criminal, dictator supporting, racist, transphobic, bigot who boast about removing basic rights over a woman. Everyone is worse off today.

£1.4 billion in a single year. There ought to be an inquiry into how the whole debacle was allowed to happen. Except it would just increase the costs. Absolutely astonishing waste of public funds.

So, the Tory party has whittled it down to the 2 most dislikeable candidates they could find. They now choose between an insanely arrogant gaffe-prone bully and a grim opportunist who thinks he gets more appealing the further right he goose-steps. Bye bye for the foreseeable future, the lot of you

For meaningful human rights analysis where better to turn than a discredited former PM who lacks the patience to read and understand any document longer than a restaurant menu and who will cheerfully say anything if he thought it would boost his popularity or result in a cheque.

As we're getting wall-to-wall media coverage of a "superyacht" sinking off Sicily, with full collaboration of Italian authorities, I'd like to recount a recent sinking, with a much larger death toll, showing the gap in value of the life of a tech billionaire & that of "Corpse n° 47" [Thread] >> 1
