There is finally another Jeffcoate on Bluesky. I don't know them, and as far as I'm aware there's no direct relation. I was still the first, but when the third arrives then the prophecy will be complete! (",)

When you go to Auschwitz they have piles of jewellery and watches which were confiscated from those arriving.
The Sun has been told Home Secretary Shabana Mahmood will on Monday propose confiscating jewellery, watches, necklaces from asylum seekers to meet asylum costs

This reflects the most controversial aspect of the Danish scheme - the Jewellery Law. The toughest Labour MPs thought this was OTT

The AI bubble may be about to bust.

Peter Thiel has sold all of his Nvidia stock.

We all need to say this very clearly:

NO BAILOUTS FOR THEFT-TECH!

Expropriate their asses instead.

They stole from all of us and fully plan to burn the planet.

They owe us - not the other way around. 1/3

Got through the day thanks to my laptop headphones connecting to my phone.

Am on the train home: it's like the last chopper out of Saigon. Children crying, youths going to a Halloween party, someone is listening to music loudly, someone else is watching the news on their phone. #PrayforDai

I've just realised that I've left my headphones at home.

About to white knuckle a 12 hour day that involves 4 hours of commuting and seven and a half hours in an office. Pray for me. Pray for those around me.

A great many of the (wonderful) stories about Ireland's (wonderful) UBI plan for artists tend to bury if not duck completely the hard cold fact that it was funded largely by Google's billion-euro settlement of tax-evasion charges.

These Gestapo fucks don't need a funny soundtrack.

We're meant to mock them when they're farting out their pathetic ideology not when they're putting it into practice. This is terrifying.

One reason the fascists are using terror tactics, bellowing draconian threats and demanding compliance so loudly is because they have real weaknesses around numbers and capacity. Their grip is weaker than it looks and the resistance they're already getting scares them.

'Fascists like being able to do things that they deny others...

When you expect them to act consistently, or have a coherent set of moral values, you are projecting your own competency onto them, and [...] you are not seeing them clearly.'

26 Police Officers were injured in Londons fascist riots, but only 9 people were arrested.

At last week's Palestine Action protest 0 Police Officers were injured, but nearly 900 people were arrested.

The UK govt is chasing Reform votes & colluding with fascism, home & abroad.

Adjusted for inflation Spirited Away cost $22 million to make. The Triplets of Belleville cost $16.5 million, Cartoon Saloon's Wolfwalkers cost $14.28 million, and Oscar winner Flow cost only $4 million. These critically acclaimed, made by real people films, cost less than this pile of actual vomit.
