DO NOT OBEY IN ADVANCE. Books-mainly literary fiction but eclectic, music-mainly classical, jazz, some indie, politics-left, travel, write, piano lessons, hiking. CPFC. Nothing else really, but feel free to ask.
Recent excuses from Americans:
He led insurrection (too soon to turn against him).
Russian spy (need more time before anyone acts).
Rigged elections (need more time to be convinced he's bad).
ICE (need more time to decide whether to rebel).
Epstein (need more time to rise up).
You lot are a joke.

Many oppose Trump's ballroom. I disagree. A large and very public facility will soon be needed to host the trials, as Nuremberg showed us. And where more appropriate to host the death of America's first fascist regime, burning in an edifice of its own making?

Now that Yaxley-Lennon's writing headline copy for its policy announcements, the death of the "Labour" party is surely complete. A joint funeral pyre with the ashes of Badenoch's Conservatives mixed in is a fitting end to three miserable decades in British politics.

Other arguments aside (and there are plenty), if Trump wants to replay his incitement of an insurrection in slow motion in a court of law, he can be my guest. Win the case or not, the more time the traitor spends under a microscope, the better.

Is America so openly corrupt that a President can weaponise the justice system against his enemies and the people just put up with it?

Rhetorical question, obviously. The USA is a fucking joke.

I wonder if Epstein file release so far has told MAGA voters a single thing they didn't know already. I doubt it. They voted for a paedo motivated by their hate, and now they'll turn the same hate onto the paedo they voted for. The hate is the real problem if we don't want it to happen again.
November 13, 2025 at 5:32 PM
To focus exclusively on the issue of Trump and the Epstein files is to miss the point - that the power-brokers and billionaires who own and run America are rotten to the core. The entire system is corrupt. Americans have been failed by far more than one President, no matter how awful he may be.

Grifters are at their most dangerous and aggressive when they first realise the con is no longer working. Exactly the position Trump finds himself in this morning. Now they've heard the warning shot, much depends on how Republicans on the Hill react. Double down on Trump, or begin to move away.
November 5, 2025 at 2:49 PM
It may be unfair, but Trump is cementing the long-held view around the world that Americans are crass, boorish, and tasteless. His renovations confirm what many have believed all along: that when you deal with the new USA, you do so while holding your nose.

Michel Foucault explains MAGA:

"The strategic adversary is fascism...the fascism in us all, in our heads and in our everyday behaviour, the fascism that causes us to love power, to desire the very thing that dominates and exploits us."

Know your enemy.

The irony lost on Trump this week is that real Kings don't like child molesters. That must be a hard one for Donold to swallow.

Here (in the UK), it feels like Epstein is the story that'll never go away. Meanwhile, in the US, it feels like the story that will never arrive. This highlights another stark difference between living in a democracy and living in a dictatorship.

Maybe it's just me but the more I learn about the Epstein Files, the clearer it is that this story isn't about paedos (though it's about them too) but primarily it's about rich white men, money, power, and control. Paedos eventually get arrested. Billionaires pillage relentlessly, unhindered.

Fuck off. Typical Dem leader. Rather than articulating how (general strike now) and actually leading the resistance, all she can talk about is her own ambition and how she was right all along.
