A thing I wish I could teach people is that the vast majority of very rich people are deeply stupid. They did not get where they are because of ingenuity or talent. They got there because of compound interest on hereditary wealth and being tax cheats.

My wife captured these stunning photos of the Sufi Shrine of Shah Rukn e Alam at one of the world’s oldest surviving forts. Amidst chaos, violence, lies, fascism and greed, our roots keep us grounded. We persevere, we gain strength. I keep fighting, amplifying voices that matter!

Today marks 14 years since my mum passed away. I never quite know what to feel or say. She was a brave woman who stood up for herself, shared kindness and love with the world and did her best in every way she could. Also, fuck cancer.

On the one hand, the calendar is just another artificial linguistic symbol that we use to organize our lives but end up thinking is reality, the map becomes the territory, and doesn't reflect the conditions we experience. On the other hand, spring DOES start today and everyone else is wrong.

If you call a concentration camp a "detention center," it's still a concentration camp. Just like if you call the Gulf of Mexico, the "Gulf of America," it's still the Gulf of Mexico.

Meta is renewing its threats against employees, telling them today that they will hunt for leakers and tolerate zero leaks. Want to know how that is going? Three Meta employees who I’ve never spoken to before just cold messaged/emailed me offering me to be sources.

Braverman should be driven out of public life for saying something as bigoted, conspiratorial, ridiculous, and dumb as this but she won’t be, of course, because anti-Muslim bigotry and Islamophobic fearmongering has been normalized in British public life.

This is the first time in its 249 year history that a military aircraft has crashed into a civilian one in the USA. And it's because Trump fired the FAA staff last week.

The imperialists and capitalists crushed the left, their biggest threat. Liberals sold out for comfort. Now, media, pharma, finance and governance are in the grip of monsters who profit from war and genocide. The U.S isn't just corrupt. It is pure evil!

Do the people in the USA ever question the fact that they are the richest country in the world, but crime, healthcare, education, life expectancy are all like a 3rd world country. Do they not realize they are being robbed?

In 1970 the UK and Norway were roughly equal, almost no debt, and owned all their Public Services. Now the UK owns nothing and has £3tn of debt. While Norway still owns everything and has the equivilant per person of £10tn. That's how privatisation 'works'.

Tesco is cutting 400 jobs to save money. But it could just cut its CEO who is paid more than 400 workers. Also, of course, Tesco has record profits, so it doesn't need to save money.
