my neighborhood 7-11 closed a couple years ago and tried to reopen but couldn’t get the permit approved because there’s a preschool next door and 7-11s sell alcohol (the previous permit was grandfathered in). i saw a fence going up around the lot recently and looked up what was moving in: a gun shop

I mean, yay Tom Holland, and I love most of the MCU output, but is nobody going to mention how much more a cinema ticket costs these days?

There was this Disney nature movie that supposedly showed lemmings jumping off a cliff. It was, of course, faked - animals aren't that dumb. Humans, however...

Wile E. Coyote, despaired, takes a bucket of paint and a brush and paints a beautiful two-bedroom house on a mountainside. He paints a beautiful coyote wife in the window, and two adorable coyote kids running around in the yard. He tries to enter this new coyote life, but it is inaccessible to him

No one takes the piss out of Clacton voters more than their phantom MP.

Thanks for this really insightful article George CCS is a fossil fuel stitch-up - now with data centres. More data centres ⏩ more gas+CCS ⏩ more LNG ⏩ more methane ⏩ more heat🔥 Burnham has a chance to stop this spiralling - data centre moratorium, move CCS funding to green economy, no Rosebank

Despite all the noise today I'd really like you to read this, as I think it's crucial. The government's in the process of p*ssing up to £264 billion into the ground, at the behest of the fossil fuel industry. Yes, £264 *billion*. It's utterly mad, and has to stop. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

In politics, we’re torn between ideals and practicalities, aspirations and realities, the world as we want it, and as we find it But one day a manifesto comes along that reconciles both in every pledge. A rare moment of clarity and hope

Let's hear it for President Dealmaker, who negotiated and signed USMCA (calling it the “best and most important trade deal ever made"), then ran against it, won, and breached it while asking "who would ever sign a thing like this?' from the same desk where he signed it, and now won't renew it.

21st century America is a multiracial democracy whose commerce, culture and cuisine reflect the influence of immigrants from every country on earth. The only people seemingly unable to assimilate into this society are white Republicans.

Tom Emmer: "Minnesotans are so afraid that you're gonna call us a racist, you're gonna call us an Islamophobe. You know what? I'm done being even the least bit careful. Somalis don't assimilate. And if they don't assimilate, then they should go the hell back to where they came from."

Any word from Elon Musk? Tommy Robinson? Where is the outrage from the vigilante defenders of women and children now this white Protestant Ulster man has been found guilty of the rape and sexual assault of children? Is the media on the streets demanding Orange men apologise for their community?
