Hey kids, there was a time when our days weren’t dominated by the whims of half a dozen psychopathic octogenarians and we lived without a gnawing sense of dread and impending doom. Look it up, and please help us get back there.

Would very much like to open the newspaper one morning and read that some significant country or business leader has told Trump to go and fuck himself. The shared failure to do so suggests we’re either governed by cowards or our economic system is even more fucked than it looks.

Pretty forceful statement, from a very interesting coalition of countries, calling for an end to the war in Gaza and rejecting Israel's plans to start clearing out Gaza.

Turns out enshittification was just the first, least harmful stage of a broader fuckitupification strategy.

What is this commentary doing in @theguardian.com 's photos of the week piece? It has nothing to do with the photo, whether or not one thinks it iss a story that should be covered seemingly twice as much as the senseless violence that spurred the protest.

They have made the world living hell for no reason whatsoever. People will ask why this happened in a decade and there will be tremendous effort to make it more complicated than “they were evil, stupid, and bored”

It is time to start having a different kind of conversation all over the west: weaponised ignorance is a problem to be solved, a fight to be caught, not a set of different, if yes, illiberal perspectives to be pandered to or reasoned with.
Remembering this story from 8 years ago, about the differing values of rural & urban people. One reason I remember it is that every single factual assertion made by a rural person in the piece is false.
New poll of rural Americans shows deep cultural divide with urban residents
Big-city and small-town Americans have vastly different views on issues like immigration and religion, helping to explain President Trump’s election

Real food for thought here from Axel Brüggemann for @backstageclassical.bsky.social: in a time where provocation is a political tool (and a social[media] norm), does art need a different approach?
