Like swimming and reading. But not both at the same time as the books get wet and the pool filters get clogged. I like fairness, so I am disappointed somewhat in some world leaders/alleged war criminals.

BREAKING: You're gonna need to sit down for this one, but an investigation has shown the IDF not only lied about the aid workers' deaths, but also lied again in their follow up explanation. I know, I can't believe it either x

What happened today isn’t just politics. ⚠️

Trump is reshaping the U.S. into a far-right, authoritarian state—favoring deals over values and aligning with autocrats worldwide.

A democracy without principles is just an oligarchy in disguise. 💔🇺🇸⚖️

I'm not a cricket buff but losing to Afghanistan sounds bad for the English. Is it?

Trump's mother Màiri Anna Nic Leòid was a penniless migrant who spoke English as her 2nd language. The tenth child of an impoverished crofter who arrived in America as a domestic worker.

Her son is now charging $5 million a visa to shut the gates in the face of people like her and let the rich in.
Trump: "We're gonna be selling a gold card. You have a green card, this is a gold card. We're gonna put a price on that card of about $5 million and that's going to give you green card privileges, plus. It's gonna be a route to citizenship, and wealthy people will be coming into our country."

I remember when advocating for mercy and compassion was considered Christian.

Now it's considered radical ideology.

I used to scratch my head as to how they all allowed the world to go to hell in a handbasket in the 1930s and why not enough was done to prevent it. We all know now.

Remember that Sunak chap? Gone, like snow off a dyke. I wonder now if he really existed or was it a bad fever dream I had…

Great letter in today's Guardian. What sort of free speech is prevented by factchecking, Zuck?

Scotland didn’t have a far right uprising in the summer, why? Well, amongst other things, they loudly and proudly celebrate the myriad benefits of immigration. Whereas we’ve endured 14 years of right wing opportunists using immigrants as a scapegoat to try to obfuscate their crimes.
