Tim Cook donated $1M to Trump’s inauguration.
He fawned over Trump and gifted him a 24-karat gold plaque (as Apple lobbied for tariff exemptions).
Apple donated to Trump’s White House ballroom.
And it removed ICE tracking apps from its stores following a demand from the DOJ.
Remember this.
My L5 Social Awareness module zine focusing on homelessness in the UK. Here is couple of the line art drawings with captions featuring data from various charities and medical professionals.
The zine and all the pages are on my portfolio: orladarby.co.uk/pay-attentio...

Screen cap of reddit comment from a human-verified account, Franky-47, reading "I cannot express enough how bad this guy was here and how unprepared he was (I work for the government (Foreign Ministry) here in Pakistan). Basically the Iranians had a team of 71 people with experts (from banking sector, to health, infrastructure, agriculture, trade/commerce, as well as nuclear scientist and many others) yet Mista JD there did not even know what he was being offered to him, instead would avoid giving any final or interim answers and kept opening new chapters as in new agenda items (topics/subjects) within an expanding list of demands for the agreement for Iran to comply on. On top of that, at each agenda item (topic/subject) this guy would call Trump, Marco, and Pete for guidance and keep asking them what they thought and needed to be done?!? It was as if JD was insincere or passively trying to sabotage the deal. At the end without summarizing his final or interim answer on each old and new demand, he just got up and told them you know what we want and what we do not, then went back home in a hurry, just like that,... I say the enemies of the USA are from within not outside."
Reddit has an apparent inside account of Vance's failed negotiations and the sheer puerile idiocy of the American regime.

Following on from my post about Amazon withdrawing support for old Kindles 😡 I have caved and purchased a new one. The smallest one, as I like something that I can hold in one hand...LIKE A BOOK!!!! Anyway, it's not shit, I don't hate it, and at least I can carry my books with me.

"With his bloodthirsty utterances, his fierce loyalty to Trump and his appalling inability to manage this huge moment in world history, Hegseth is every bit the disaster that anybody sensible could have seen coming," writes @sulliview.bsky.social.
Just found out my 7" Kindle Fire HD (3rd gen, which I have had since 2014 and is the best one they ever made), will be obsolete from May. Cheers Amazon, another reason you totally suck!

JD Vance: "Will you stand against the bureaucrats in Brussels? Will you stand for western civilization? Will you stand for freedom, truth, and the God of our fathers? Then, my friends, go to the polls and stand for Viktor Orban!"
ICYMI: @thetimes.com did a nice little profile on me
"I think covering this stuff over the last decade has probably negatively affected my mental health just bc it’s pretty bleak most of the time. But I still get up and feel privileged in some ways to be able to cover historic events for a living."
Oh no...I missed my birthday. Why did no one tell me it was my birthday today?!
Hold on...
It’s 5th April and time for my excellent friend @dunsworth.bsky.social to rip up page 5 of the execrable Sapiens. And this page contains the most scientifically ignorant sentence I have ever read in a book written by someone who is meant to be a scholar.

Graphic showing '€1.4 billion from frozen Russian Central Bank assets' in blue and yellow representing the flag of Ukraine.
Ukraine will receive €1.4 billion from windfall profits generated by Russian Central Bank assets frozen under EU sanctions.
The assets stay blocked, but the interest they earn can be used to help Ukraine.
For a strong Ukraine in a secure Europe.

To whoever did this at the #NoKings in Boston: Thank you.❤️
It made me tear up. And we must to be reminded of needless damage to humanity that results directly from the careless, bellicose bluster coming from the Pentagon and White House.

How can the BBC justify how much coverage they give other marches which are significantly smaller in size?
The bias is so obviously blatant.
www.theguardian.com/uk-news/live...
Absolutely nothing on the impartial BBC website.
Why are they so against reporting on the UK public’s stance against the far right?
Shameful.
@bbcnewsnight.bsky.social Massive anti far right protest taking place in London today, but nothing from the BBC as per usual.

Secularism - a principle accepted by many religious and non-religious people - puts the human right to freedom of religion and belief front and central, together with separation of religion and state. This is a great new resource for schools from @humanists.uk
Tony Blair can fuck right off. Advice from a War Criminal who LIED to partliament, and who's actions resulted in a man's 'suicide' has nothing worthwhile to contribute.

Read the names. Look at the pictures.
Ask what goal is being pursued that might possibly be worth these lives.
And do not lie to yourself that Donald Trump is trying to "liberate" the people of Iran from an evil government.
