I've been on quite a few cruises now, and have always been counted out and counted back in. Now they are at the point of scanning your key card out/in so they know exactly who's on board. This is incomprehensible, for the cost would have expected much better than this

The Walton family (who own Walmart) are worth over $400 billion, yet many of their employees are on SNAP.

Bezos is worth over $400 billion, many Amazon employees require SNAP.

The people who need help are not the problem.

It’s corporate greed. It’s an unwillingness to pay a living wage.

There's a very good reason why you no longer see light-blue three-wheeled Invacars on UK roads - they weren't safe.

Lee Anderson and the other dim-witted misfits and wingnuts in Deform UK want to turn the clock back on 50 years of progress.

Trump's net approval rating among young people is negative 40% — and falling!

This stuff really freaks me out. They see their future as one where the decisionmakers live in military installations, where the civil and military functions of government become merged.
And actually astonishing when you think about it: The Trump administration's top officials are choosing to separate themselves from the public—more to the point: separate themselves from any visible protest—and live on military bases.

Top Trump Officials Are Moving Onto Military Bases
Stephen Miller, Marco Rubio, Kristi Noem, and others have taken over homes that until recently housed senior officers.

Never in the history of the US has any president openly and repeatedly called for the investigation, arrest & prosecution of his political opponents. While many continue to shrug these things off and normalize them, I will never stop pointing out that this is what autocrats do.

He's obviously correct.
President Trump says the U.S. will “immediately” resume testing nuclear weapons for the first time since the 1990s.

Nuclear expert and disarmament advocate Dr. Ira Helfand says the move will inflame geopolitical tension and that “our luck is going to run out at some point.”

As always, the story is how and why the media – particularly prominent broadcasters such as the BBC – are making certain choices as to which individuals, ideas, and views are platformed and how these are framed to the public.

The path ahead will be shaped by such decisions. The water we swim in...
So why does the BBC label the academic and economist Faiza Shaheen an "activist" but refuse to do the same for the former academic, turned anti-migrant activist Matt Goodwin?

Welch: "This has nothing to do with the shutdown. The law requires and the funds are available to continue SNAP right now without any interruption. So that is a decision the president is making on his own to allow people to go hungry."

ps. Some dinosaurs also wrongly call the Greens' messaging "populist" because they're still stuck in their own media strategies of the 1990s. Things have changed. Folk are now swamped with info from multiple platforms 24/7. The way to break through that is with clear and above all HONEST messaging.
