Don't go searching for OP, leave them alone. I just think that what they uplift is important and explains why many people simply cannot engage in activism and organizing regularly. And the truth is that it's hard to figure out actual ways around this because organizing in fact a labor.

My sonβs class were drawing Keir Starmer yesterday and the photos on Dojo are HILARIOUS. I kid you not - they ALL drew him with a square head. Wish I could share the others, but hereβs my sonβs depiction of our robot overlord.

This country has a history of 'managing' migration incrementally into smaller and smaller numbers until we land at where we're at today - from Empire through the Windrush, through that generation, to Brexit, to now.
Please excuse my migrant skin crawling at my party joining in that rhetoric.

I am sure you will be excellent as ever!
Working on a new Disturbing Words on "law", and digging into Nomos (as in auto-nomous bombs) is⦠giving.
Want to know why you feel numb when confronted with the Law (Nomos)? Well, they're only the same word at root. Also, numbers, so adding thoughts on gambling on genocide (bad).
