VERY funny that Labour are being pointlessly cruel and haemorrhaging support from their base and yet none of what they're offering is ever going to be enough for the people whose approval they're seeking, WHO could have predicted it

Philly PAWS has a pet food pantry. You can reach out to them directly if you need help. They do a lot of other stuff too, like providing vet care and temporary housing for pets. They accept monetary donations and donated supplies.

mr trump as your comms strategist i can only encourage you to keep depicting yourself as a mad king dumping shit on people
Trump's Truth Social account just posted this AI video of him flying a fighter jet that reads "King Trump."
AI Trump is wearing a crown while he dumps shit on protesters. He's such a pathetic little man.

It’s so funny that for the past week republicans have all been like “the only people out there are gonna be Hamas.” Everyone in this crowd is signed up for Kohl’s rewards points.

I am sickened by the relentless demonisation of refugees.
No refugee underfunded a school.
No refugee closed a hospital.
No refugee took away support from the sick and disabled.
We need solutions not scapegoats. Stop blaming refugees and tax the rich instead!

Apparently, it was a “cruel hoax.” While I’m glad it wasn’t real, the power of such threats to spark panic highlights the fear that Americans are just supposed to live with.
Met another American at an event yesterday & we spoke about how safe we felt on Scottish campuses, in contrast to the awfulness back home. And today there’s an active shooter situation in Villanova (not far from my own undergrad campus). I hope there are no serious casualties. When will it end?

A reminder that after years of speaking out against Epstein and giving other survivors the courage to come forward, Epstein victim Virginia Giuffre died by suicide in April at the age of 41.
Let's not forget that there are real human tragedies behind everything we're discussing.

I am grieving the barbarism that is going to unfurl from all this. People are going to die. Livelihoods gone. All to feed a corrupt kleptocracy.
I see every day up close how different it is from the first time around. There are no guardrails. A disaster. I’m sorry we have to live through this.

To say that I’ve been underwhelmed by the current Labour Government is the understatement of the year. So, I’m very glad to see my MP Euan Stainbank on this list.
