#NightReign is almost here and it's so strange to me how many aspects of it seem to line up with Padfoot's fanon/vibes that I remixed across the souls games and #EldenRing up until now.
So if the final boss looks like a confrontation with their dark reflection I'm gonna go absolutely feral.

I'm reminded of Lloyd George giving a speech in the UK Parliament, shortly after Hitler had banned all other political parties, demanding we not "bully Germany into a communist revolution".
Liberalism will side with Fascism at every turn, because their true, shared enemy is the worker's movement.

The House of Representatives voted 285–98 in favor of a resolution condemning socialism.
86 Dems joined Republicans in supporting the measure, incl. House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries.

Interesting paper! When you ask people about the most important issue "facing the country," they often say immigration. But when you ask them about issues facing them personally, it doesn't crack the top 10.
This indicates that voters are reacting to media narratives, not their own experience.

🚨 This is a huge victory for the organised tenant movement after YEARS of organising.
We need to go further, and we’ll keep fighting for more, but the biggest change to renters rights in a generation is worth celebrating.
This wasn’t handed to us from above, we won it💪

The Renters' Rights Bill has been APPROVED by the House of Commons!
This is the final step before the Bill receives Royal Assent, which we expect shortly.
No more amendments, no more debate - renters' rights are coming.

Israel bombed Gaza 100 times last night & has, once again, blocked essential aid. They want total death.
Trump's "plan" was always going to lead to this & it's an irrevocable stain on our "leaders" that they rushed to praise it. Only a full embargo on the zionist state will end the genocide.

Israel isn't complying with the ceasefire agreement (letting in aid, releasing Palestinian hostages, simply not killing people) because the state doesn't want a ceasefire: it wants full liquidation.
Don't allow a complicit media to paint Palestinians at fault for their own genocide.

Bourgeois "democracy" is already intrinsically undemocratic. But the UK's abysmal first-past-the-post system, where a party with a quarter of the vote share could hold a majority of a country's seats, is just mechanically fucked.

Petitions don't tend to do a whole lot in UK politics, unfortunately.
However, one as recently set up as this now hurtling towards 2 million signatures, likely making it one the most popular petitions in UK government history, should at least scare some away from supporting this nonsense.

This petition gained a million signatures yesterday. If we can keep up that growth it will terrify people at the Labour conference.
