Woodworking, organizing, West Ham supporting. I probably don't know your cousin who lives in London.

I think about this Tony Benn speech much more than I used to

There was definitely an argument to be made and I ended up telling myself it was for the best. I'd moved from E17 to Washington dc by then. I never imagined it would be this bad (West Ham or DC)

I thought Egg already had planning permission to expand the East side to get us up to about 40k. I'm definitely not trying to say everyone was singing bubbles on Green St every day, but the Queens market traders & local businesses, most locals & even the nuns cared more than the Westfield does

West Ham’s owners bought a clue that was loved by its fans and sat at the heart of a community and had plans for moderate growth, but was hit by owners’ investments in the financial crash. They sold our home, killed the atmosphere, hurt the community AND they’re making a HUGE loss. Utter disgrace.

I KNOW! I keep seeing them and wondering if they’re unexpectedly holding someone’s tiny glue-up together while their itk family members laugh at them….

Dems are winners. It'll play well on Morning Joe. What else do we need?

The Roberts Court has a clear set of guidelines: the president can do anything he pleases, so long as it does not violate the rights of the owning class.

One thing in the Britain vs USA/Royals vs MAGA, Epstein comparisons is that the British ruling class has been uniquely good at preserving itself through the ages.
It's not that Britain is a more democratic society, it's that the Royals are happy to shed a limb in order to live to fight another day.

Basil Brush’s right royal rib-tickler at the Rewind Festival!

We are at the β€œmuch loved nostalgic kids’ tv puppets are after them” stage, so it’s pretty bad for the Royals right now.
I know he’ll try, but can Trump delay revelation forever? Will Dems repeat the Nixon/Iran-Contra/banking crisis/CIA torture mistake and let him off if they get back?

I resigned from that job when they made me ride my delivery bike on icy roads. If we’d had a union, we never would have gone out and I could have had free breakroom pizzas for years. Sometimes we deliberately screwed up order when we were hungry.

I was working at a Pizza Hut when the stuffed crust came out. The manager took us to the pub for a meeting about it. It was clearly a good idea but we know the tangy sauce was weird. Technology is good, but it needs worker control to be bring real joy to the working class. #pizzadialectics.

Hand drawn card reads: roses are red violets are blue. All you fascists are bound to lose. It has a Woody Guthry style guitar drawn on it.

An awesome shop steward and artist from my union Danny Bailey (I don’t see her on Bsky) @apwu.bsky.social made this card and it absolutely rocks! #valentinesday #1u #artsky

Poll: Trump’s immigration crackdown deeply unpopular in Minnesota Federal deportation efforts are also unpopular nationally, turning immigration from a political strength to a problem for the president ahead of the midterm elections.

I totally relate; a friend lent me his scorp for a stool I’m working on. It is very cool.. but they are soo expensive. I’ll finish with a rounded card scraper cos travishers seem to be even more πŸ’΅.

Ron Wyden Only Talks Like This When The Spies Do Something *Real* Bad No, I don't know what they did. But I have a lot of experience with the senator

@wyden.senate.gov's record of warning that there is deep and constitutionally-serious dirt being done by the intelligence agencies in secret is unblemished. The vaguer he is, the filthier the dirt is. This is the vaguest I've ever seen him

If Jeff Bezos can throw $75 million at Melania Trump, then he can fund the newspaper he owes a debt of stewardship to. #savethepost

Chuck is a meme. A parody of the worst kind of centrist.

This has big consequences.
on the specific issue - ICE carries on as before.

It is also demobilizing. You can trace long-run improvement in Trump’s 1st term approval to the moment Schumer and Durbin caved on detention in Dec. 16.
