I watched 6 horror movies over the Halloween weekend, because I could Not on purpose, necessarily, I just wasn't well, and I'd already watched way too much Supernatural. And there are soo many Scream movies I haven't seen. What else is a girl to do when she can't sleep?

Luckily, the closest we came was to a dear leader was BoJo, and tbh, no one really likes him. Farage would like the job, but also, no one really likes him. 🤞
And you're absolutely right, bigotry and small-minded isolationism won the day where Brexit was concerned, and will take years to put right.

#strictly thanks to the trains, my brother will now be an hour late, so I won't be able to post along with the final tonight - we're watching together 🤬😞🤬 have fun, #strictlysky and I'll see you on the other side 😁

Tweet from @TIME: Donald Trump is TIME's Person of the Year

Trump being named as TIME's Person of the Year epitomizes the media's complicity in fascism and the polarization of the masses. The system doesn't give us a choice. It works tirelessly to normalize authoritarianism and class warfare as ubiquitous parts of society while turning us against each other.

Healthcare should be care, not violence. Yet in the United States, the economic structure of the healthcare system means that people regularly receive the opposite of care in a functionally violent way.

Those are the seeds.

Trump joins Adolph Hitler and Joseph Stalin as Time’s Person of the year.

Hey Masoud ($200/$800)
I'm sorry that you're going through such a tough time, but one glance at my profile and posts would have shown you that I am completely unable to help you. I'm unemployed and caring for my mum - who, coincidentally also has cancer - and we have nothing.

Just imagine if you were in a position to end poverty, everywhere, for everyone, overnight.
And instead you chose to engage in political games that enrich you, engender division and further impoverish the worst off.

Ambulance blocked by protesting tractors Protesting tractors impeded an ambulance heading to an emergency incident in London Waterloo on Wednesday (11/12).

Ambulance blocked by protesting tractors. Remember the outrage when it was suggested that Just Stop Oil protesters might block hypothetical emergency services vehicles? Yet no one seems to be as outraged by actual emergency services vehicles being blocked.

That’s not what she *means* of course. She means they’re food for the Poors.

Then what the hell did they vote leave for, exactly? 🤬🤬🤬🤬 If that doesn't persuade the govt that the media absolutely orchestrated Brexit, and that Leveson 2 is crucial, literally nothing will. 🤷‍♀️

Majority of Brexit voters ‘would accept free movement’ to access single market Europe-wide polling finds UK and EU leaders now out of step with public opinion and pursue ‘ambitious reset’

“54% of Britons who voted leave, including 59% of voters in “red wall seats”, said in exchange for single market access they would now accept full free movement for EU and UK citizens to travel, live and work across borders.”

Good to see @theneweuropean.bsky.social naming Gisèle Pélicot as Person of the Year 2024 - take note, Time magazine!

Elon Musk's Tesla lobbied UK to charge petrol drivers more Musk's firm backed the government's green stance, despite its maverick chief executive's social media attacks.

Muskonomics in a nutshell.

'Elon Musk has waded into British politics on social media, predicting "civil war" and criticising Keir Starmer. But behind the scenes his firm was trying to persuade the new government to extend a policy that would boost his firm's profits.'

We need to make @bsky.app the biggest social media platform in the world, we need to do it with urgency, we need to make sure Reform UK never get any where near power & we need to send Elon Musk packing. TOGETHER we can do it

Levis Fishlock: Man gets joint-longest sentence for summer riots Levi Fishlock is jailed for nine years for his part in an attack on a hotel housing asylum seekers.

Levi Fishlock sentenced to 9 years after changing his plea to guilty.

He threw bricks, smashed windows & stoked a fire to set alight & burn over 200 people.

He said his actions were for “a good cause” & there are plenty we give mainstream platforms to who agree. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Two-Tier Reporting: When Climate Protesters Slow Ambulances They’re Vilified, So Why Are Wealthy Farmers Given a Free Pass? Media outlets rush to condemn climate change campaigners as "middle class" protesters causing "chaos" while ignoring greater disruption by millionaire landowners

Remember all the outraged coverage about a handful of climate protesters slowing ambulances a few years back?

Well it turns out that wealthy farmers doing exactly the same thing on a much bigger scale is absolutely fine

I think we need to consider just ignoring America for the next few years

A regular reminder to the far right arseholes, in the media and online, who constantly say that people were only jailed after the Farage riots for sending "silly tweets", that the prosecuted were actually violent criminal thugs or inciters of hatred & violence, and deserved incarceration.

How many times…

Luigi Mangione’s fellow prisoners yelled “Luigi’s conditions suck” and “Free Luigi” from their cells in Pennsylvania during an interview: www.newsnationnow.com/banfield/lui...

The next Trump presidency will largely leave #AI unregulated. That makes it essential that tech firms see Europe’s AI Act as legitimate, to maximise the law’s global influence.
