I LOVE THIS 👇👇👇
My dad abhors any negative comments about immigrants. Asked him recently why he’s so strong on it: ‘Because we’re always happy to take the rich and clever ones. Which means it’s not about disliking immigrants. It’s about disliking the poor and vulnerable. And that’s a bad human instinct.’
This is so disgusting.

Encouraging🧵 Tech edgelords fail to come up with a single convincing scheme (trying repeatedly, getting nowhere)
Morbid symptoms, tech bosses hunt for Lost Horizons
Tech elites are starting their own for-profit cities
They want to escape from regulation and ‘failing’ democracy — but are they more opportunistic than libertarian?

She blinks away fog, the haze that obscures details. For her last look she wants the colours bright, the details crisp. Each flower counted and the butterflies noticed. She wants the small things back again. The colours of the sand as it slips through her fingers.

Comfort is silent as marshmallows,
New slippers with soft insoles,
Oversized sweaters,
A beach without footsteps,
Clothes with pockets,
Tea in your favourite mug,
An unfinished book,
Silence when the wind stops.

Finland knows that Socialism works.
They house all the homeless people, and have the least in the world.
They closed all paid Education in 1976 and now have the best education system in the world.
They are the happiest country in the world.
Be like Finland.

Occasionally, I read something and fall deeply in love, all over again, with the German language.
Today's unbearably cute discovery is the colloquialism for toddler: "dreikäsehoch". Literally, "three-cheeses tall".

High on the windswept ridges of the Himalayas, this bird lives where snow meets rhododendron bloom. It moves in small, cheerful flocks, feeding on seeds and buds even in the coldest months.

America today is what a country becomes when there are enough ignorant & stupid people to be intentionally miseducated via criminal rich controlled media. Through propaganda essentially predicated on appeal to inherent racial & religious predisposal to self-ascribed superiority, comes 2025 America.

In 1906, Finland became the first European country to grant women the right to vote & run for office. The first 19 women in the Finnish parliament, the Eduskunta, were elected in 1907. #suffrage

Also I was just reading some Betjeman and in a poem dated 1972, he mentions in passing some elms. I imagine he gave them very little thought they were almost just punctuation in the verse , he'd not believe that in 10 years they'd all be gone.

We have a graduate generation struggling to find good, secure jobs, and a teaching profession that can't attract enough applicants. Pay teachers better and you might go some way to solving two problems at once. And a bonus: better educated kids.

Sometimes the connections in NYT Connections are genius
But sometimes it’s like “words that with one letter removed and pronounced backwards rhyme with the nicknames of 1930s quarterbacks who played exactly seven games for the Milwaukee Pigfuckers”
