A simple cartoon picture of an American man talking to a European man.  The American man is saying "We came to Europe’s rescue in
WWII, and now you won’t help us with Iran?".  The European man is replying "Dude, you waited 828 days to get involved in WWII, and then only because Japan attacked Pearl Harbour.  Come and talk to us at the end of 2028."

Getting the distinct idea that Trump must think 'Team America: World Police' wasn't a movie but a documentary and is trying to outdo it.

If you have a Royal Family, you have deference.

If you have a Royal Family, you have a class system.

If you have a RF, you essentially say, "These people are better than everyone else by dint of birth & should maintain enormous influence, wealth and power."

Why would anyone want that at all?

Not sure why Reform announcing they’ll scrap the Equality Act 2010 hasn’t provoked widespread alarm.
They want to torch our human rights framework AND repeal our right to protection from discrimination.
A smile and a shrug on BBC News.
What the hell?
FFS, media. Tell people what this really means.

Observer review: Kingdom Come by JG Ballard Kingdom Come looks like a report on modern Britain, but it's really a report on the state of JG Ballard's head, and the good news is that it's as fertile as ever, says Phil Baker.

Nearly 20 years ago, JG Ballard published Kingdom Come. Reading now you will see how prophetic he was.

The UK government didn't want you to see this report on ecosystem collapse. I'm not surprised | George Monbiot It took an FOI request to bring this national security assessment to light. For ‘doomsayers’ like us, it is the ultimate vindication, says Guardian columnist George Monbiot

Please spread this far and wide, as stories don't get much bigger than this. When the government blocks even the intelligence services from telling us we're heading for environmental catastrophe, you know we have a problem. A very big problem.
Thank you.

Screenshot of an X.com post by The Associated Press (@AP) stating that dozens of immigrant families protested for better treatment behind fences at a Texas detention facility, where a 5-year-old Ecuadorian boy and his father were sent after being detained in Minnesota. Below is a video thumbnail showing a crowd gathered outdoors along a fenced walkway; many people wear bright blue or red outerwear, and some hold signs.

After being held in two of them as a boy, I fought for decades urging America to never again build concentration camps and put human beings in them. It breaks my heart to watch this happen twice now in my own lifetime.

Willie Paul - any living relatives out there? We're hoping that, perhaps through a crowdfunder, we can give Willie Paul and his family a decent final resting place; a place where we, and future generations, can visit and pay our respects. It's no...

In time, we're hoping we might be able to do WILLIE PAUL right with a headstone; it's not so easy though as we're duty bound by regulations to try and connect with any living relatives to gain permissions. Retweets far & wide appreciated. Thank you. 🙏

Overnight guidance has continued to abandon Melissa turning NE into Hispaniola, and is increasingly concentrated on a west track south of Jamaica - a scenario which could easily support a category 5 hurricane in an exceptionally favorable environment for intensification.
