Trump admits during a press conference that the US will now “run Venezuela”

He says they weren’t drilling anywhere near what they could be and that US oil companies will go in to start making money.

It was never about drugs.

It was never about protecting people.

It was always about oil.

Farage caveated his comments by suggesting Trump's actions broke international law. No such comment from Starmer

The only people that can stop Trump and the GOP are the American people. But their window to be able to do so continues to close.

New month, new book thread! First up, The Intermediaries: A Weimar Story by Brandy Schillace (narrated Daniela Acitelli).

I knew about the Institut für Sexualwissenschaft. Or I knew it existed. I appreciated the intimate portrayal of Dora Richter.

I speak up for migrants a lot. You know, because I am one. And because it’s the right thing to do. Every now and then, I get a Faragite telling me if I love migrants so much, I should house a refugee.

I love when they tell me this.

In 2026 let’s normalize masking for public health.

If we could admit that with healthcare being gutted, vaccine access restricted and previously eradicated diseases coming back… having an extra layer like a respirator makes good sense.

Let’s also normalize not mocking people who mask!

We need to start talking about the radicalisation of the older generation by the internet: perhaps we should have upper age limits on social media like Facebook, or an age-related ban on owning mobile phones.

12YO girl signed up to do “stand up comedy” at the talent show. 13YO boy decided to heckle her. Teacher started to tell the boy to leave her alone, but the 12YO comedian said “no, no, let him go, this is the closest he’s ever going to get to having a conversation with a girl.”
What's an insult you'll never forget?
