I reckon you can learn a lot about the atmosphere in various Oxford colleges by looking at what they choose to name their cats (courtesy of @oxfordclarion.bsky.social ). We should all aspire to the energy of a Teabag, Isambard Kitten Brunel, or an Admiral Flapjack

we gotta keep hammering over and over again just how fucking unpopular this guy is with every institution and every person in a position of power
people hate him and people will hate you for capitulating to him

Enten: "This is probably the worst 10 day period for the president in the polls his entire second term. The numbers are just atrocious ... when your best poll has you 14 points underwater, you know it's truly bad and it's as bad as 26 points underwater ... -43 with independents! They despise him."

I think Democrats should talk more about Trump trying to block the "Epstein videos" the "Epstein photos" because I really don't think he's that worried about his name showing up on yet another list, that he can spin. Also, "files" sounds so clerical.

I think there are a number of people employed at the New York Times -- certainly not all of them, but many! -- who simply do not grasp how badly the paper's credibility has been shaken over the past few years, along several different axes, and for multiple different reasons

In short, the ANES data shows:
📉 Social media use is shrinking
💥 Twitter/X posting has moved ~50 points to the right
🧩 Platforms are splintering
🔊 Fewer people are talking — but those still talking are more politically extreme

The deep, ugly logic of Trump’s ocean murders and immigration campaigns basically guarantee an endpoint of industrial scale murder on US soil. I am not given to hyperbole and I don’t say this lightly.

Ganondorf IS EVIL
Ganondorf has condemned the No Kings protests taking place across Hyrule today, has baselessly accused them of being funded by “The ‘Sloppy’ Seven Sages”, and threatened to send his Demon Army after any “insurrectionists and agitators” who threaten his authority.

We're not at war with Venezuela, these boats are many hundreds of lines from our waters, much less our shores, there is no threat, this is just murder.
I really do think everyone from the SecDef to the guy who pushed the button should be tried for murder on this.

Don’t believe anyone who tells you that intelligence shows anything “without a doubt,” but even if the intelligence was water-tight, this strike was still murder. No law permits the deliberate, premeditated killing of civilians.

But somehow Trump not just breaking a promise but intentionally misrepresenting his entire extremist, revolutionary agenda to absolutely devastate and reconfigure US government is treated as, more or less, Trump Just Being Trump.

But for some reason, our media doesn't want to talk about it like that. Our political class, which considers things like "if you like your insurance you can keep it" to be five-alarm whoppers, acts like Trump has a mandate for Project 2025 and it must be respected.
Again: it polled at FOUR PERCENT.

I genuinely don't know how you extract meaningful concessions if the executive branch can choose to spend money or not regardless of what's in the CR, apparently with SCOTUS's shadowy blessing.
That and all the rest of the rampant lying and lawlessness, of course.

At this point, any Democrat who votes to keep this government open without extracting very serious concessions — RFK’s resignation, ICE rollback, Epstein Files release, etc — will absolutely face a primary challenger who will set fundraising records.
Republicans run the White House, Congress and Supreme Court on the principle that the only role Dems can play is bailing the GOP out from facing the consequences of their own actions.
They expect Dems to clean up after them and save them from voters’ blame, and sadly some Dems want to do just that.

I have 3 axioms that help me decide when to talk to people I disagree with:
1. To debate a subject is to concede that the subject is debatable.
2. To reason with a person is to concede that the person is reasonable.
3. To ask for evidence of a claim is to concede that the claim might be true.

Why are the American president's claims about autism the first item on British news bulletins?
He's not our president, the advice doesn't apply here and he's not presented any evidence to support his assertions.
So why spread these claims? What make this the biggest story in the UK?
