Samesies on the Indian side.

I don't know how I'm going to cope after next May when @colbertlateshow.bsky.social isn't making my mornings bearable. They're gone for a week and I feel like a lost puppy. 🥲

Smash the machines! Yes!

How is this any different from Biometric Residence Permits that were scrapped last year? And the current eVisa regime? Not humiliating enough? Ooh, I get it, some billionaire wants personal data. Gotcha.

I can't help but think how funny it might have been if the UN staff is screwing with Trump on purpose

Justice Dept. Official Pushes Prosecutors to Investigate George Soros’s Foundation

This is, without any exaggeration, exactly how Putin and Orbán proceeded — using antisemitism to discredit the idea of civil society and political opposition, and as an excuse to undo the rule of law.

Tell us something we don't already know lol

Disney/ABC have a responsibility to refuse to participate in corruption.

Kimmel must be reinstated. If Disney/ABC agree to this extortion then perhaps creatives + workers should consider collective action to push back. Same w/buying park + cruise tickets if they bow.

People have power. Ask Target

The UK’s problems aren’t caused by immigration It’s not hard to see how so many came to worry about the issue. But the data isn’t there

Jerry Greenfield is resigning from Ben & Jerry's after nearly 50 years at the iconic ice cream company he co-founded with childhood friend Ben Cohen. Greenfield said in a resignation letter that parent company Unilever had worked to silence the founders from speaking out on social issues.

The Global Reaction to Charlie Kirk’s Death Proves the Populist Convergence Why vigils popped up in Europe for the late conservative activist.

The global reaction to the murder of Charlie Kirk underscores the close relationship between the U.S. and European right.

Somebody needs to tell the people who make ads for travel companies that the thing stopping me from booking my next 5-star holiday is not the number of clicks

We have a bit of a natural experiment here. Compare the tone, quantity and duration of Charlie Kirk coverage with that of the two Dem lawmakers gunned down in their homes in Minnesota 6 months ago. May be revealing.

Oh my God, Rachel and Ross freak out about Emma getting her ears pierced and now Cam and Mitch go crazy about Gloria piercing Lily's ears. What is the deal with (on-screen) white people and ear piercings?!

'When markets tell companies it's more valuable to develop drugs that lengthen eyelashes than to develop drugs that treat malaria or tuberculosis, something is clearly wrong with the incentive structure.'

@johngreensbluesky.bsky.social I love this book, thank you for writing it

Every day, somewhere between 10 and 20 times as many Palestinians are slaughtered by Israel.

It's not just that they don't get these messages of grief and condemnation from British politicians.

British politicians continue to arm their murderers.

Court staff cover up Banksy image of judge beating a protester Artist’s latest work at Royal Courts of Justice in London is thought to refer to pro-Palestine demonstrations A painting by Banksy of a judge using a gavel to beat a helpless protester appeared on the walls of the Royal Courts of Justice before quickly being covered up by guards.

If Farage wins the next election, it will be down to one person. His name is Keir Starmer.
This thread explains why.
1. Destroying faith in democracy. The UK decisively voted out the Tories, only for Starmer to give us a Continuity Tory government, shamefully beholden to economic power.

The image displays a line graph titled "Population projections until the end of the century." The graph plots population projections from 1950 to 2100, with population values ranging from 0 to 1.8 billion. Four colored lines represent different regions: - A brown line indicates population projections for India, showing a steady increase peaking around 2060. - A blue line represents China, which displays a peak around 2020 before declining. - A red line shows Europe's population, which rises slightly before declining. - A green line indicates the United States, which experiences moderate growth before leveling off. Dotted lines illustrate the projections based on the United Nations' medium scenario assumptions. The data source is listed as "UN, World Population Prospects (2024)" The chart includes horizontal grid lines for better readability of the population figures and timelines. The overall design aims to convey trends in population growth and decline among these regions over time

India, China, Europe, and the United States are on very different population paths

Look at this graph.

The share of national income going to the richest 10 percent was lowest (and share to lower 90 percent highest) when union membership was at its highest. As unions have weakened, inequality has widened.

This is why we must build back union power.
