We arrived in France 6 years ago today. We didn't know anyone and spoke hardly any French. How things have changed! Thank you France and Gérardmer in particular for taking care of us and giving me plenty of time to dedicate to what I love to do the most: paint.

Man, I just read a quote from Carrie Fisher that's going to be burned into my brain forever.
"Things are getting worse faster than we can lower our standards."

I prosecute and defend the most serious sexual offences in our courts.
The overwhelming majority of offenders are British-born. Overwhelmingly the victim is someone known to them, either a partner or relative.
Anybody purporting to care about protecting women might start there.

Francesca Albanese pushes back against the tendency to brand people 'pro-Palestine' or 'pro-Israel', telling @mrjamesob.bsky.social that 'one injustice does not justify more injustice.'

Fuck no.
We’ve taken a couple of pretty good punches, but the Republic still stands.
The GOP is getting less popular by the day. All the economic indicators look rough. His approval will continue to tank.
We need to plan *now* to trounce them in the midterms (yes, there will be midterms).

I’ve long talked about how it’s the GOP’s goal to keep people stupid and afraid.
When they’re morons, they believe dumb shit like ‘only I can fix it’
When they’re afraid, they believe dumb shit like ‘Hillary is coming for your guns’
Anti vax content is also amplified by hostile countries.

A bunch of Trump’s most influential advisors are advocating for the US to leave NATO and the UN.
Short-sighted, reactionary morons.
You should really ask yourselves why anyone that has the US interests at heart would want us to leave the most powerful alliance in history.

In #Ramallah and #EastJerusalem, I’ve met NGOs at heart of effort to save lives and protect civilians.
They are working under immense pressures, in most dangerous places to do humanitarian work. But their main message was not that. It was defend international humanitarian law.

I've now complained to @ipso.co.uk & expect in due course Telegraph will be forced to correct this BS.
They couldn’t even get London’s overall population right, let alone migration stats.
But what are the "right" numbers? [1/n]

On today’s episode of “if Obama”
If Obama fired over a dozen inspectors general in the middle of the night, the media would have (appropriately) excoriated him over the illegality and absolutely tanked his approval ratings
Trump does it, and CNN calls it a “shakeup”
Shameful.
