everyone loved the tech industry's free music and friendship machines of 20-30 years ago. it's unclear what could be causing people to feel the opposite about the industry's new racism and insanity machine

I tried to take a photo of a grasshopper on my windshield, but now it looks like a gigantic bug destroying the town.

Big upgrades are coming to London transport.
New trains for the Bakerloo, Piccadilly, Central and Elizabeth Lines, more DLR trains and modern trams for South London. This is how we keep the city moving and give Londoners the reliable network they deserve.
This should alarm everyone. The FBI searched a journalist’s home and seized her work devices, despite no criminal charges. This is a direct threat to press freedom.
Ooh some good stuff there!

The local foxes are looking into the new year with oblivious curiosity and hunger. I try to learn something from them 🤣

Just making sure that 2025 is definitely over
On International Migrants Day, let’s celebrate the generations of migrants who’ve helped make London what it is today - the greatest city in the world.
#OTD “Hunky Dory is 54!
It started with a photo of #MarleneDietrich that Bowie took to photographer Brian Ward, who shot it in Black and White.
That photo was given to Terry Pastor who airbrushed it, and that became the LP cover we all know...

Amazing!! I loved those too 💚
Yummy jasmine rice!! Very intrigued by creme de menthe…
Lily of the valley always smells soapy to me (in the wrong way)

Perimenopause is a bitch for giving me 2-3 hours wide awake in the small hours most nights 🤯

This was on the inside of the toilet door at the gig I went to last night and just seems to sum up everything really…
A highlight of last night I'm not seeing much today:
Spanberger, Shirrell, and Mamdani all won clear majorities of young male voters last night.
Honestly TELL THE STORY. Won’t someone just tell the fucking story of how Brexit created this economic hardship, how a Muslim immigrant just saved the lives of those commuters on that train, won’t someone in politics or even media just connect the fucking dots and TELL THE STORY. IT’S RIGHT THERE
This is the kind of thing which makes me think better things are possible.
dawg not the steakhouse wedding font
three sheets of paper are taped to the outside of a building. they have the words "The Oval Office" in gold script
this looks like a trick daffy duck would put up to get bugs bunny into "the oval office"
A SSRS/CNN poll showing 61% people think Trump has gone too far using the power of the presidency and 57% think he's gone too far deporting immigrants.
People fucking hate this guy. They fucking hate ICE. They fucking hate how much power he has. He is at 63% overall disapproval to 37% approval. That's lower than their poll after January 6th. And this poll was done before he started intentionally starving people. I wish our media would reflect this.
That sounds great!!
Love Anka Kus! Jezebel and Los Vientos de Santa Ana are my faves

Medicare for All would save $450B a year.
Every dollar spent on food stamps generates $1.50-$1.80 in economic activity.
Each dollar going to low-wage workers adds $1.20 to the economy overall.
It’s not about what this country can or can’t afford.
It’s about priorities.
Aka, dictator chic
I told him that I was born in Russia and was a writer. He showed me a list he’d written of his favourite desserts in the city. It was a sober hobby he’d started during the pandemic, going to restaurants by himself, sampling sweets. He made a lot of lists, he said, most of them food-related. I asked what other kinds he made. “Lists of lies liberal white women tell about Donald Trump,” he replied. Suddenly, his leg was shaking. He grabbed the edges of the table and raised his voice: “White, liberal women are a plague on our society.” He proceeded to drink 11 iced coffees.
A writer tried dating alt-right men as an experiment to learn about them. There is so much going on here I don't even know where to start
