The Telegraph Headline: New Covid virus found in wild Brazilian bats
Subhed: The discovery of a ‘furin cleavage site’ suggests the mutation which helps the virus adapt to humans is naturally occurring
Sad day for the folks who staked their reputations on lab leak conspiracy theories.

“America is the wealthiest nation on Earth, but its people are mainly poor, and poor Americans are urged to hate themselves. To quote the American humorist Kin Hubbard, 'It ain’t no disgrace to be poor, but it might as well be.' It is in fact a crime for an American to be poor, even though America is a nation of poor. Every other nation has folk traditions of men who were poor but extremely wise and virtuous, and therefore more estimable than anyone with power and gold. No such tales are told by the American poor. They mock themselves and glorify their betters. The meanest eating or drinking establishment, owned by a man who is himself poor, is very likely to have a sign on its wall asking this cruel question: 'if you’re so smart, why ain’t you rich?' There will also be an American flag no larger than a child’s hand – glued to a lollipop stick and flying from the cash register.
Americans, like human beings everywhere, believe many things that are obviously untrue. Their most destructive untruth is that it is very easy for any American to make money. They will not acknowledge how in fact hard money is to come by, and, therefore, those who have no money blame and blame and blame themselves. This inward blame has been a treasure for the rich and powerful, who have had to do less for their poor, publicly and privately, than any other ruling class since, say Napoleonic times. Many novelties have come from America. The most startling of these, a thing without precedent, is a mass of undignified poor. They do not love one another because they do not love themselves.”
reading slaughterhouse 5 for the first time and i was absolutely knocked senseless by this passage, which is so true and relevant that it feels like it was pulled from a history book

A cartoon poster shows Beaker from the Muppets dressed as the Grim Reaper. He wears a dark hooded robe and holds a wooden scythe. His long pink face, big round eyes, orange nose, and messy orange hair stand out, with a worried expression. Red theater curtains frame the scene. Behind him is a glowing full moon and dark trees dotted with red leaves. White arched text says DONT FEAR at the top and THE MEEPER at the bottom. The mood is spooky yet playful.

Guillermo del Toro quote "...think about wealth for me for example. A wealthy man that has enough..."
"not a man that needs more. If you have enough to invite somebody to beer..."
"...you're rich. If you have, whatever-"
"- yachts and planes and islands and you STILL need more? You're not rich."

This. For those blinded by Fuckage and Deform, we have the luxury of seeing the UK's future playing out in the U.S. Employment Law so weak, and no safety net, no healthcare, meaning that workers are easily turned on each other, while the rich enrich themselves still further. How do we stop our fate?

A tweet from Melat Kiros for Congress reads: “I’m sure it’ll trickle down any day now.” It quotes John Fugelsang’s tweet, which says: “The average age of U.S. homebuyers is now 56, up from 49 last year. In 1981, the year trickle-down economics began, it was 31.”
It started with Reagan and has accelerated under Trump.

Exclusive | Trump Pardons Convicted Binance Founder
The pardon follows months of efforts by Changpeng Zhao to boost the Trump family’s own crypto company.
President Trump pardoned the founder of Binance, who was convicted for enabling money laundering. This comes after the company held business talks with the Trump family and boosted their crypto company.
Astonishingly corrupt.
