I can’t believe we’re still having a debate about whether there’s a trade off between job creation and measures to green the economy. There isn’t. The evidence was clear years ago - a green economy creates far more jobs than the fossil fuel economy it replaces. Come on Labour, catch up …

Money out of politics. Money in your pocket. Medicare for All. Michigan... We won. I am so proud to be your Democratic nominee for US Senate. Let's win in November.
Today's @mrjamesob.bsky.social column in @theipaper.com cites @britishfuture.bsky.social research on how the public, esp migration sceptics, remains unaware of the massive drop in net migration – and how this is exploited by anti-immigration voices. inews.co.uk/opinion/fara...

I the year BP dumped 6billion gallons of oil over the coast of Alaska, and then walked away leaving the cleanup for Alaska, EA was awarded the most hated company in America. Let that sink in.
EA has been the worst gaming company for like 20 years straight, but it's not satisfied with just being the worst. It has to find ways to make itself so despicable that we need to add "EA" as a superlative to "worst" Something that exceeds the by definition most bad state something can be in.

"saudi arabia owns EA" is going to be the headline you see basically everywhere for this one but "jared kushner is about to use EA as a vehicle for trump administration bribes" is equally relevant imo
![The firm is fully owned by Jared Kushner and has a staff of approximately 20 people.[2][5] By 2024, the firm had returned no profits to its investors.[6] The firm has been controversial due to conflicts of interests arising from Kushner soliciting funds from Middle Eastern governments while also working as an envoy having direct and indirect dealings with those governments in his role in the second Trump administration.[7] According to reporting by Bloomberg News, investors in the firm do so with the expectation of influencing the Trump administration.[8]](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:2jjromh55tf7pp7s4hsvurf4/bafkreihebdzjog2hp37o2q3enjyrsi46btqktev76ogpneczsrrzl55fo4)

Empathy isn’t weakness. It’s the ability to see humanity in people outside your own experiences. A society that loses compassion loses something far more valuable than money or power.
Can we finally all agree that the argument “we should run the country like a business, and therefore elect businessmen to run it” has been a failed experiment?
When Sony is forced to walk this back, a return to status quo is not enough. Y'all gotta add in the long overdue ability to play ps1, ps2, and ps3 games straight off the disc.
Ahoy, me mateys. Just a quick take on all this SONY controversy fer ya. 🏴☠️

I got my advanced ticket to go see Coyote vs Acme. Guys, we complained, and protested, and said clever things on the internet. Now the movie is coming out and it's time to put our money where our mouth is and support this film. #GoSeeCoyoteVsAcme
If the Democratic coalition has room for anti-Trump conservatives, it has room for the DSA.
The Bulwark@thebulwark.com · 2w agoThe vibes may be exciting, but if Democrats are going to win this year and in 2028, they must reject the DSA. If you’re tempted by a democratic socialist this year, think of what use Republicans will make of these victories, and ask whether you want to do favors for fascists.
if I ever taught film criticism lesson one would be “you being smarter than the movie is not interesting to anyone”

GOP’s continued war on women. These decisions have nothing to do with protecting life. It’s about controlling women and causing preventable deaths. Which is already happening in conservative states.

My life often feels like it's hanging in the balance, but I get a bit of solace knowing some of the dreadful people I've managed to outlive. Ann Widdecombe, Lindsay Graham, Chuck Norris and now Rod Liddle in 2026 alone. Quote post with someone you're looking forward to outlasting. Farage, for me.
I don't like to celebrate someone's death, no matter how repugnant, but I will say I'm over the fucking moon that I'll never be subjected to another column from Rod Liddle ever again.
