I support Palestine Action Prisoners
I oppose genocide, I oppose the proscription of Palestine Action.
Inaction is not acceptable.
Usually fed up with government, any of the recent ones. I want them to do better.

"Mark Carney’s speech at Davos yesterday really is worth your time. It made some of the front pages today but the news cycle moves so fast that it’s already yesterday’s news. Part of the challenge of this moment - and I believe the job of journalists - is to focus on the signal, not the noise. And if you have time to take in one thing properly, this week, I’d suggest it’s this."

#Trump reveals his petty egotistical nature when he describes a conversation with a Swiss person
DJT "I guess the prime minister called, a woman"
Switzerland does not have a Prime Minister it has a President, Guy Parmelin. He's a man""
DJT "We imposed 30% Tarriffs"
You imposed 10% a tariff on your so-called liberation day
DJT "I'll be honest with you she just rubbed me the wrong way .... so I made it 39%"
What a petty little dipshit and way to run a country

@Geri It is about time Hoyle actually threw someone out instead of just threatening to
I live in a small town in Sweden. This morning I went out to my car (realising that I'd once again forgotten to lock the front door last night), drove along empty, wide roads to the nearest largeish town and parked in the brand new multistorey carpark by the railway station, where the first two hours' parking is free and the remainder of the time is very cheap.
I got out of the car without checking my surroundings, and as I leaned back in to get my bag out, I thought "In large parts of the world, I'd be asking to get mugged, or worse".
Then I walked along the clean, well-kept streets to the hospital, where I waited for less than 2 minutes for my mammography, which was completely free of charge.
This is Sweden. This is Europe. Why the FUCK are we trying to emulate, listening to, investing in or in any way having anything whatsoever to do with the utter insanity coming out of the USA?
And I don't just mean under the current, obviously barking, incumbent. I mean ever? They don't do things like we do. They don't believe in the same things that we do. This really is an us and a them situation, and we've been kidding ourselves for the last 80 years that they're like us.
Might have to do with the fact our shitty news media is owned by 5 mega corporations?
@DoubleTreble blocking might help, but it probably doesn't really matter.. It looks really snuggly 👏👏

I invite you to boost this video from Richard Murphy as much as you can. He is meeting the moment. The more people that hear this message or this kind of message the better.

I want to give a shout out to Richard Murphy here for this video in particular. Here is an example of a public figure rising to the moment. This is what we need because of we don’t reassert decision-making control over our (economic, social and political) lives by defeating billionaires, and their fascism, everything else is irrelevant.

@ravensrod Morning R 👋🏻 🖖🏻
@DoubleTreble Yay for a lie in. I hope it's helped. Have fun with the bloods🙄 and I hope you feel up to lunch out.
Food delivery expected today and I'm delivering a cake to the memory cafe.
Such excitement!
Have a lovely, restorative day.
Love and hugs 🥰🥰🤗🤗
@Tim_McTuffty snow is threatened here too. I could do without it. My daughter is returning from working in Manila at the end of the month. She will not be impressed
@Tim_McTuffty Morning. It's 🌧

Some scammers are pretending to be Mastodon admins and asking people to "verify" their accounts by clicking on a link, which then asks for their card details or other sensitive info.
DO NOT CLICK THE SCAM LINK!
GENUINE MASTODON ADMINS WILL NEVER ASK YOU TO VERIFY!
There is a real verification system on Mastodon, but it's entirely optional and does not involve credit cards. Genuine verification is voluntary and based on website ownership.

In Kostiantynivka, Donetsk Oblast, an elderly woman wrote “Please, bread” in the snow.
A 19-year-old Ukrainian drone operator from the Phoenix unit spotted the message during aerial surveillance.
After approval from command, he dropped bread and biscuits by drone. Later, a new message appeared: “Thank you.”
Evacuation is impossible as the city is a buffer zone.

@Geri
You are certainly not a nobody.
I know you've written to all MPs, have you had a reply from my MP, Richard Fuller? I haven't.
I am impressed that you have heard from so many. They don't really need to answer letters from other MPs constituents
@annehargreaves @Geri commiserations
