I was a few “Spotify is bad, use something else” drops in on a few feeds… so I thought let me try it (in parallel dw Spotify). So first impressions of Tidal… clunky and not so logical or intuitive. Music categories ltd, search function hard (for me) to find…. Integration with B&O; mythical! Sound+++

I read this and the text exchange between DJT and Norway and I truly believe that Trump is deranged, psychotic… it’s clear he places no value on anything or anyone above himself. His acolytes have no values. There will be no midterms… dark days.

“This is tyranny,” Keith Ellison, Minnesota’s attorney general, told our columnist Lydia Polgreen as she was reporting from Minneapolis. “We now don’t have to speculate as to what American fascism looks like. It’s right outside the door.”

This makes no sense…

An MP can wake up one morning, ditch the party you elected them for, & sign up to a completely different manifesto…

No thanks

If they defect to a different party, we should get a vote

Sign the petition & help make that law.

The problem is that Tim (is that nice but dim) is part of the rot.
So much of British political debate is throwing a fit because the party you supported finally lost an election after fifteen years.

This epstinian behaviour by rich men is not uncommon (scarily). It happens when men get into positions of power and think the rules apply to others…. When we talk of rapes and assaults and grooming gangs…. Let’s not forget these people. Abuse is abuse, rape is rape and there is no excuse….

NYT M.Gessen “We have become a country whose federal government deploys military and paramilitary forces in the streets of its major cities, terrorizing the residents in the guise of protecting them.” - he’s talking about the US… 1 yr in to a 4 year Presidency, it’s scary that this is the new normal

This is what happens when you sell your soul to capitalism … Guota (imo) is a “bad actor” interested in profit(his own). Nothing wrong with that… but in this case he speculates with others cash.

Just in case there was any doubt about the narcissisism of DJT and the lengths folk will go to, to humour him.

Everything Trump is doing now (from from Portland to Minneapolis to Chicago) is a preamble for his regime's real goal: to invoke the Insurrection Act.

I don’t want to unduly alarm you, but I've been warning for months of this imminent danger. Let me explain what’s going on.

Why are interviewers on audio visual media so rubbish… papers used to be better too… listening to the radio this morning thinking “what are you trying to find out”. Ugh

Government policy to curtail the right to protest is wrong headed. The role of government is to represent ALL people. It is patronising for a few to say sorry it’s not in the best interests of the United Kingdom. We are are the United Kingdom.
