Many have mentioned this before but I can't get over how on the nose the metaphor for this presidency is:
1) Illegally demolishing a large part of the White House
2) In order to build a "ball room"
3) Covered in 24 carats gold
4) For which there doesn't seem to be a real plan
5) While people starve

I mean yes this is funny, but the fact that these unconstitutional stormtroopers are so directionless that they literally stand around waiting for random nonwhite delivery guys to bike past them is just pathetic. No mandate, no mission, no clue. Just racism.
ICE attempted
and failed to disappear a food delivery guy.
It needed to be scored.

Had a grand day out yesterday, running in the Chiltern Hills. Thanks to the Centurion crew and volunteers for making the day so enjoyable. Special props to the fellow runner who diverted us away from the wasp nest! #CW50 #ultramarathon #trailrunning

I love London so much. So much.
Did you know that London has the lowest level of ethnic violence of any city of comparable size in the world?
Multiculturalism has in fact worked here. They just don’t want it to be true because we happen to have a Muslim mayor.

As several have pointed out, this also applies to the massive (100,000 or so) Trans Pride event. Almost entirely blanked.
Here's how the real two-tier Britain works:
1. Whatever Nigel Farage says, however stupid, is looped and discussed by the media, while left-wing voices are treated as noises off.
2. Tiny far-right protests get massive airtime, while 10s of 000s gathering for Palestine or green causes are ignored.🧵

Catch-22: Do I try to wake up for some of the @Mets game, making their loss more likely, or do I sleep through another thrashing of the Phillies? #MitUK @metsintheuk.bsky.social #LGM #MetsSky 🌒⚾️

In the past week I’ve been getting a lot of likely bots following me and liking my posts. It would be nice if that were one of the options to tick when reporting the accounts @bsky.app .
