The older I get, the more my politics mature from childish, naïve beliefs like "the world is complicated and leaders have to make hard decisions" to more serious, adult principles like "hurting people is bad and helping people is good."

Very sad that I felt I had no choice but to resign from The Infinite Monkey Cage - a victory for the transphobes and other bigots - I did it because so much of the media has chosen to believe the kind and empathetic people are a fiction - they are real and so often unrepresented.

Alt: it's a molecule of kinesin motor protein 'walking' along a microtubule, dragging a vesicle. The kinesin is pink filamentous and has these sort of floppy molecular 'feet' that seem to be striding forward, although these are actually binding domains.
It's stepping on a regularly structured green "bridge" and dragging a ball of something dark green and squelchy looking behind it that's studded with little squiggly orange bits. The size of the ball is many times the size of the kinesin character here.

Why Nigel Farage’s ‘fag packet’ migrant deportation plans don’t add up
Nigel Farage claims he would deport 600,000 asylum seekers in the first term of a Reform government and ramp up detentions of those who come here illegally. But the numbers don’t quite add up, as…

The CEO-to-worker pay ratio at S&P 500 companies last year was 285-to-1. The median employee would have had to start working in the year 1740 to earn what the average CEO received in 2024. Is it any wonder why so many think the system is rigged?
