Unlike you, I can read and that’s why I know what the constitution says.
Trump on Ilhan Omar: "I look at somebody who comes from Somalia...and she comes in and tells us how to run our country. 'The Constitution says this, the Constitution says that.' The whole thing is crazy."

There is no ceasefire we've all been gaslit 👇
Gaza has dropped out of the conversation in many places post ceasefire - similar to Lebanon, subject to daily Israeli attacks all year despite a ceasefire here.
But the attacks are ongoing and people continue to die regularly in both places.
But the attacks are ongoing and people continue to die regularly in both places.
"Israel violated the ceasefire agreement at least 282 times from October 10 to November 10, through the continuation of attacks by air, artillery and direct shootings, the Government Media Office in Gaza reports."

PS/ It's not just that these cowards caved. It's not just that a December Senate deal won't pass the House, so ACA subsidies are gone now. It's not just that America was with the Dems. It's not just that this makes Trump seem strong. To cut this shitty deal, these schmucks *defied logic repeatedly*.

I mean, Zuck isn’t texting everybody on WhatsApp telling them that their country is about to descend into civil war and their hobbit villages are being plundered and raped by foreign devils.
Meta is no good but there’s an added intentional input from the proprietor of X who funds far right rallies.

Why anyone uses that platform is beyond me at this stage
Una Mullally: Media outlets need to break ties with X
The presence of media outlets on X does not have a diluting effect on the concentration of misinformation on the platform. If it did, then we wouldn’t be where we are

It's far from done but it's Lando's to lose now. We saw what happened when it was Oscar's to lose, but I dunno Lando seems dialed the fuck in lately. Think he'll do it.

This is the most abysmal, pathetic thing. The BBC head resigning because the corporation is not supine *enough* to the far-right.

My favourite Hiberno-English-ism isn't any of the obvious ones, it's the fact that when we say "sallow" we mean the opposite of what everyone else means. It's not sickly yellow, it's healthy, positive

Ten hours in and I'm enjoying Ghost of Yotei, but is it as good as Ghost of Tsushima? Not for me, yet... The open world feels less open than Tsushima, and the storyline is less compelling. The updated fight mechanics are good and interesting and it looks amazing so it's fun!

Yep, always important to remember that racism as a fundamentally stupid outlook, that falls apart if you think about it for more than 5 seconds.
