People living under fascism didn’t survive by giving up joy—they protected it.
They held onto the things fascism tried to erase: art, friendship, jokes, rituals, language, memory.
Not as escapism but as resistance. As proof they were still human.
Joy isn’t frivolous under fascism. It’s strategic.
If your “leader” enjoys showing off concentration camps -you’re in a fascist cult.
“We’d like to see them in many states,” Trump said. “And at some point, they might morph into a system where you’re going to keep it for a long time.”
Does she now think we are not all going to die? Or does she think she just made a crass statement that it doesn’t matter if we die when we don’t need to?
I love that this is still going.

Couch to 5k week 8 run 3. Nearly gave up after three minutes! Thankfully I got into my stride and completed the 25 minutes. One more week until I ‘graduate.’ Maybe I’ll come to enjoy it!
A judge who is braver than SCOTUS.
Mark Carney is right. One senses that this is a moment in history when a radical realignment in the West will emerge that will work around or exclude the US. Every empire bears the seeds of its own destruction, and some of these seeds are now taking root and growing.
Well done Rory!!
🤣
He may not have a heart, but he certainly has a belly! 🤣
How long before Teslas are exempt?
What changed DJT’s mind on the pause was the bond market-ie those who were holding US debt were selling. Presently interest on debt is higher than military spending. Yet he wants to pass a bill that will increase the debt by several trillion dollars, giving debt holders more leverage over the US. 🤦♂️
Week 5, run 3, the first 20 minute run of my couch to 5k (great app). Wearing Base layer at the hottest part of the day. 🤦♂️ Absolutely knackered, but I did it! Back to the couch for a rest.
🤣
What a night, what a performance from this far from 100% team, one of the great European nights at the Emirates.
Declan Rice has produced two of the greatest free kicks you'll ever see at this level, and we 100% deserved that third goal too.
Incredible. This team deserves so much love. #arsenal
Today I’m remembering the life and death (80 years ago today) of Dietrich Bonhoeffer. He was a great hero of the Confessing Church in Germany. While his theology is still studied and relevant, at local church level he is perhaps best known for his 1945 New Year poem

No-one expected the Spanish Inquisition!!

The great businessman waits until the Dow plummets before selling his media stock. 🤦♂️

Well, there you go. 🤦♂️
Here he is today, deeply concerned about economic hardship caused by his tariff scheme.
