This is absolute truth. Add in I've read the Book of Mormon & done a little bit of Jehovah Witness readings. I'm not being arrogant when I tell Bible thumpers that I probably know their book BETTER than them..I'm WARNING THEM to not TEST ME🤷‍♀️

Pensioner poverty in the world’s sixth largest economy is a political choice The hardship inflicted on retirees now will surely visit future retirees unless steps are taken to alleviate misery.

2012-2019: there were 335,000 excess deaths (48,000 a yr) in England, Scotland & Wales due to poverty & austerity.

Over one-third of the deaths were under the age of 65 years i.e. majority were senior citizens.

Austerity kills but govts remain addicted.

No govt Bill ever explains the human cost.

This seems particularly on point right now #FuckTrump

If each Treasury payee is a separate record, and there are, say, 68,000,000 social security payees (as is estimated), then at $5000 per violation, it seems like Elon could be penalized $340 billion if he unlawfully accessed their Treasury records...

The Cracked Mirror by Chris Brookmyre. Brilliant rollercoaster crime novel!

First they came for the immigrants, and I spoke out, because I’ve read the damn poem before and I know how it ends.

Oooof.

Apologies for getting a bit political on main tonight.

Over 60 German and Austrian universities, the German Federal Court of Justice and multiple top German football clubs have announced that they will be withdrawing from Twitter (X), due to US oligarch Elon Musk's "discussion" (collaboration) with Germany's neo-Nazi party (AfD) Alice Weidl.

Title: Still haven't made a new year's resolution? Let us help you generate one! Image: a diagram which asks you to input “The year of your birth added to the number of pets in your home”, “The number of days in the current month plus your shoe size” and “The sum of the first three digits in your telephone number” which will seemingly make a random resolution but actually always* makes “support your local bookshop”. *Unless you have size 68 shoes or a negative number of pets or some other nonsense in which case you will get the silly outcome you deserve.

My new year’s resolution generator for @theguardian.com. Let me know what you get!
