(Not easy to say, but I’m glad to know it exists).

Many people on here already have several thousand followers - even some who only joined a couple of weeks ago and have made very few posts. What am I missing, apart from followers?

I’ve spent 70+ years believing that I suffer from imposter syndrome. At last it’s quite clear to me - it’s no syndrome.

White Ribbon Day is on Monday 25th November. The White Ribbon Campaign strives to eradicate male violence to women. The theme this year is #ItStartsWithMen - all men are encouraged to root-out their own negative attitudes & behaviour towards women and to call it out when they see it in others.

I heard that Andrew Tate tried to come stretch his awkward wings here and got banned in just one day.

Sorry, hate has no home here. Stay in the bad place, thanks.

Joe Biden’s green light for Ukraine to fire US-supplied missiles deep into Russia is a potentially dangerous escalation.

It pushes the prospects for peace further into the distance while risking an even broader NATO-Russia conflict with disastrous consequences for the whole world.

I don’t know how long this will last, but isn’t it nice knowing when you post something, you’re not going to get criticized and called every name in the book?

We need to get back to reading and critical thinking Because 2024 feels different from 2016.

Feels like I'm just posting to the void since I'm just getting started here, but why not. I write a weekly newsletter, and this week I write about how far away from reading and critical thinking we’ve come. It's lacking in our education, COVID learning loss, social media attention spans, all of it.

Word of the Day, should you need it, is β€˜latibulate’, a 17th-century verb meaning to find a corner somewhere and hide in it.

He's well aware of what genocide is
- he participates in it

He knows GCHQ is involved
He knows UK bases are used
He knows the SAS are advising
He knows the RAF spy planes are used
He knows the BBC are spreading misinformation

Starmer is a Genocidaire, without qualification
