My parents met at a pirates’ convention in Belize. They were average at looting and plundering, hence my current fate. Opinions for alms... 🏴‍☠️🇪🇺🇵🇸🇬🇧🇺🇸 ⚽️🏏

New DFP poll finds that 42% of NYC Democrats would be less likely to vote for a Democratic congressional candidate who didn't endorse Zohran for mayor. And keep in mind this is 42% of all Democrats, not just 42% of Mamdani supporters! www.filesforprogress.org/datasets/202...

We need to flip these numbers if we’re ever going to solve the housing crisis.
Stock market ownership:

Top 10% - 87%
Bottom 90% - 13%

Housing market ownership:

Top 10% - 44%
Bottom 90% - 56%

A house is the largest financial asset for the majority of middle-class households

Housing nobility threatens this & it's not good:

"Americans’ approval of Israel’s military action in Gaza ... is now at 32%"

"Disapproval of the military action has now reached 60%"

Large splits by party, age, and gender, but no majority support in any major demographic.

It’s 2025 and we have a country (Israel) forcibly starving a people (Palestinians). Just the sheer inhumanity, obscenity, and cruelty of it all… Know who else did this? The Nazis in the Warsaw Ghetto… #Gaza #Genocide #IsraeliWarCrimes #NaziPlaybook

Hating Sadiq Khan is a more reliable indicator for not being a Londoner than eating in an Aberdeen Angus Steakhouse is.
According to Sadiq Khan's team, 94% of online mentions of the Trump/Khan spat over the past 24hrs were posted from OUTSIDE London

The 'vast, vast' majority was X (140k+), followed by Reddit & Bluesky

What does it take for a famine to be declared in Gaza? - NPR

Western governments hesitate because,
Just as with using the term “genocide”, they’d have to admit that the Israelis engineered this famine. Just another genocidal tool, of course…. #Gaza #Genocide #IsraeliWarCrimes

MAGA hates education
Phang: Teachers are some of the least paid, most underappreciated people, and they work in such an intimate way in our lives. Your kids spend more time at school than they do at home, at least in waking hours. So why not encourage our teachers? Why create this oppressive environment?
