If you were looking at a newspaper (or its website) this morning and didn't see this iconic photo, it was an intentional choice to pander.

Itโ€™s been 45 days since Adelita Grijalva was elected by the people of Arizona.

Mike Johnson is still refusing to swear her in because sheโ€™s the final vote for the discharge petition to release the Epstein files.

Im the same. 30 years ive been playing football manager. This game has not been made for me. I dont recognise any of it. Everything is worse or more complicated, broken, or just plain missing. Seems like its entirely designed to play on mobile or tablet.

Ever since I finished Question Time, Reform have massively been on the attack.

Including a rant from Richard Tice entirely designed to distract from Reform and Russia.

Everyone should know about Nathan Gill, the bribes from Russia and the link to Reform.

Hi Internet! I'm Drew and THIS IS MY FACE.

If this GIF has ever brought you joy in the past, I humbly ask you to consider making a donation to the National MS Society. It would mean a lot to me and to those I know affected by the disease!

The 400 richest Americans are now worth a record $6.6 trillion.

The entire bottom 50% of America is worth just $4.2 trillion.

Our problem isn't a lack of resources.

Our problem is ever-expanding inequality.

Giving a bully your lunch money is only a temporary downpayment for future bullying.

We ALL need to step up for the first amendment.

By-the-way, for the record, this ex-Disney employee finds Jimmy Kimmel very talented and funny.

I of course welcome the recognition of the state of Palestine.

And there won't be a Palestinian state left if government's continue enabling Israel's unfolding genocide.

Labour can't credibly support Palestinian statehood whilst also continuing to arm Israel.

in light of the kimmel news, just a reminder that a few days ago a prominent fox news host literally called for killing homeless people. right afterward, someone shot up a couple homeless encampments.

that fox news host still has his job.

Suddenly "hate speech" is bad. Suddenly "dehumanizing" people is bad. Suddenly "cancel culture" is good. Suddenly words have consequences.

This is huge. 3 more London councillors leave Labour and join @greenparty.org.uk.

We're now on more councils than the Lib Dems in London.

Labour - you're next.
