The world is 700% richer than in 1970 but the average person is only 8% richer. Because the richest 0.01% are 4000% richer. We are all being robbed every second of every day, and it doesn't matter how much profit or growth there is. It will never reach you.

Julian of Norwich lived through a most turbulent era, rife with unrest and the Black Death, and more. But I take comfort in her refrain: "All shall be well, and all shall be well, and all manner of things shall be well." It is a prayer, a hope, a longing.

This is a very good leading article about class and inequality. I would just add that we need not be bound by our backgrounds. My parents were upper-middle class (quite posh). But I want a far more equal society, where the rich have less and the poor have more. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

This is steadily increasing. Ireland is at 55% of the threshold now, and we can get there. This takes seconds and costs you nothing. Please sign and share, or if you’re not in the EU, just share.

Here is why Trump, Musk, and co are desperate for Ukraine to negotiate with Russia and implement a "buffer zone", Russia has essentially lost the war and will not be able to hold any occupied territory without outside collaborators. They aren't negotiating peace, they are negotiating the plunder.

Cell me old fashioned, but I'd have thought that the government trying to team up with the largest opposition party to pull a stroke that would exclude smaller parties from having speaking time in the Dáil was the antidemocratic part of all this #speirgorm

Wrote a longish post explaining why Bluesky is enshittification-resistant (not enshittification-proof, mind you, but resistant). I expect some people to get mad about this, but for folks who are concerned/trying to understand... The key: it has a tech poison pill. www.techdirt.com/2025/01/21/t...
