My neighbour says leftists keep taking over his social platforms, so I asked him how many social platforms he has, and he said he just finances a new social platform afterwards so I said it sounds like he's just feeding social platforms to leftists at this point and his investors started crying.

Jesus, the trouble I used to get in saying the Obama admin needed to prosecute absolutely everybody for Abu Ghraib and Guantanamo. "Think of the election." "Be practical." "Play the long game." What fucking ever. All those people belong in the prisons they build for others.

You’d think this in Haaretz would be top of the BBC homepage but no. The chant by Bob Vylan at Glastonbury however is.
IDF soldiers have now themselves admitted they have been ordered to murder aid-seekers in Gaza.

Truly an atrocity built on atrocity.

There literally is a silver bullet. It’s called funding education and the welfare state properly and stop pretending a nation’s economy is like a Monzo current account.
It could have been done on day one.

Most celebrities: can't be damned to even talk about defending trans people

David Tennant: turns a question that doesn't mention trans folks once into a clear, decisive message of support and explaining the true machine behind our current oppression
I do love David Tennant and his response to this question in the Guardian today.

It is genuinely your moral duty, if you’re in the sciences, to violate the terms of your contact and take as much of the research home with you as you can. Today, tomorrow, every day your lab’s still open.
this is a golden age for walking out of your lab with a USB key in your pocket getting on a plane and going to Luxembourg
Scientists have just cured pancreatic cancer in some patients with personalized mRNA vaccines. Pancreatic cancer. And this Trump administration wants to throw it all away.

They’re throwing away a cure for cancer.
