1/ I guess I’m ‘The Good Immigrant’:

Been here most of my life now, never claimed benefits, paid taxes, worked for the NHS, taught students, done research for public good, volunteered, spoke English fluently.

So why do I feel so alienated and hurt by the government’s anti- immigrant rhetoric?

This is dark. But also, this display of solidarity on the part of the pentagon press corps should be a model for dealing with the regime

It's time for Starmer to abandon the race to keep up with the economy-sapping immigration policies of the man who brought us Brexit in the first place. Until he takes that step, the “severe and long-lasting” impact of leaving the EU, identified by Reeves today, will only keep getting worse.

Insane story out of India

In today’s production, Donald Trump will play Harry Corbett and Keir Starmer will play Sooty (as an obsequious grinning buffoon). 🙄

B'wana Beast has found his friend.

She was stolen, experimented on, and infected with a deadly disease by STAR Labs.

She was peaceful.

Now the beautiful girl lays sick, scared and dying.

The Beast wants vengeance and Buddy is the only thing stopping him from slaughtering the people responsible.

The Trump administration canceled this researcher’s federal grant “as part of a sweeping punishment of elite colleges and universities”

This administration is not just dismantling public health & healthcare but also critical medical research—it’s all about inflicting maximum punishment & pain 😢

The two spikes in CO2? Elevator rides...reason I still wear mask in public elevators (and restrooms)...

"Many religions have attempted to make statues of their gods very large, and the idea, I suppose, is to make us feel small. But if that's their purpose, they can keep their paltry icons. We need only look up if we wish to feel small."

-Carl Sagan, The Varieties of Scientific Experience.

Four decades wrongfully incarcerated isn’t punishment enough for these sadistic fucks.

After a long pause, I've just done another England Covid & NHS update as we head into the autumn/winter season.

TLDR: we're in a significant Covid wave now, the NHS is stretched, get boosted if you're eligible.

This is quite frankly terrifying- someone who hears voices, believes in conspiracy theories like chemtrails and pseudomedicine influences decisions of the Florida surgeon general Joseph Ladapo who is himself already a vaccine skeptic ..

For folks that couldn't access the @bmj.com article last week...

So that was Sunday September 7th 2025. Crikey. Another day done, another (more or less) here. So it goes.

(Out this very month in 1971, Action Comics #406, with its cover by Curt Swan & Murphy Anderson featuring a headless Superman. Gulp.)

And so to bed. Sleep well yourselves, gentle sentients.

"The secrets of evolution, are time and death.

There's an unbroken thread that stretches from those first cells to us."
