Jerusalem Post: Despite a “ceasefire” the IDF is giving orders to open fire on everyone in Southern Lebanon trying to go home — “Even if the person is unarmed… based on the idea that there are no civilians left in Southern Lebanon.”

Picture of an ebike

"Ebikes are insanely great technology. Cheap, rugged and reliable, they're basically bicycles that abolish hills. Once you've gotten accustomed to an ebike ..you'll never go back."
The mileage is great: 625 km per $1 (390 miles).

Hoo boy, that was a tough listen. Two women in a department store, browsing racks right next to me, discussing 'immigrants'. I had to walk away when one said '...and you know what? We'll never get them all out of here either'.

There's just no helping some people. 🙄 #Its2026

I worried about my Grandma being alone after Grandpa died and got her a rescue dog. She named him Buddy, which was my Grandfather’s nickname when he was a kid. They seem to be getting along pretty well…

I didn't mean to turn this into a short thread, but once I started ranting ...
So here it is, on one page: skywriter.blue/@georgemonbi...

This morning I’ve seen Olly Robbins’s appearance before the select committee described as ‘box office’, while a commentator flagged up another key political moment with the words ‘bring the popcorn’.

That’s one of our main problems right there.

Almost everything we argue about is a substitute for the thing we should be arguing about: the immense wealth & power of an oligarchic class, which captures governments, ruins lives and wrecks the living planet.
This class redirects our rage at scapegoats. To resist its lies is to resist its power.

‘Exam-obsessed’ schools leave pupils unready for work, Alan Milburn says Former minister leading review into young people and work cites survey showing most teachers decry lack of ‘soft skills’

How dare teachers care about knowledge and education when all we need are new cogs in the capitalist machine, employees trained on public money so they are able to secure and increase profits for a few private pockets?

"Soft skills" sounds so much better than complex exploitation.

Releasing the power of the sun from my kids old treehouse. Just a little sad.

There should be a law passed, and enforced, that we will no longer have for profit prisons of any kind! Ever again! Incentivized incarceration should be a crime against humanity and should be retroactively enforced! They know what they are doing is wrong!

Today I saw the little mouse in my garden 😁 it's alive and looking well, if surprised. It vanished before my eyes.

I'm proud that its able to live with us. Considerate gardening works.

Benefit Fraud costs about £2bn a year.

Tax Avoidance is at least £200bn a year.

One is unaffordable and needs to be cracked down on.

The other is completely ignored.

I bet you already know which is which.
