An older watercolour drawing from when I used to make frequent trips to sketch in London. This shows the Embankment with lots of pigeons, a pavement artist and a couple of Japanese young women on one of the benches. This was sold at an exhibition.

I get that MTG’s pension vests Jan 3, 2026. But that pension pales in comparison to the money she could grift by staying in her job until her term is up. I can’t figure out why she’s leaving a year early. She’s worth $25M. The pension is peanuts.

It’s crazy to think about the crimes we’re going to learn about after this regime ends.
We’re already hearing about Watergate level crimes every week. Imagine what will come out after it’s over.
We’re going to need a full accounting of all that’s been done in violation of the constitution.

Power for its own sake, and no courage – Labor loses its way
Having tasted long-term power, this Labor Party seems guided only by the possession of power as an end to itself.

That Ukraine peace plan was likely written by Putin himself and handed to piggy. Who knows what the files will reveal.
We know it has got to be something big. Putin is selling his national gold reserves to keep the war funded; economically It may collapse soon. I hope Ukraine can hold on. We’ll see

I had not yet read this when I posted elsewhere that the Trump (Putin) plan would give Trump (and Putin) the pretext for Trump to abandon Ukraine and pull out of NATO. Trump said he wanted the US out of NATO even before his first term. SCOTUS was the only check on his ambition — they knelt to him.

Is it a coincidence this is happening after the Epstein vote? Has Putin got all the cards now the files “have to be released”?
What has changed in last a few days other than that?

We're going to build a city that everyone can afford — and with about 40 days until I become the next mayor of the city, we're hard at work on the transition. (And if that's something you want to be a part of, visit our website!)

I thought the petite bourgeoisie were those who owned means of production that they themselves use, and may or may not employ others (hence artisans, small businesses). What you're describing sounds like the bourgeoisie, and wouldn't describe, say, a sole trader who owns a workshop.

The petite bourgeoisie, in any serious Marxist or economic sense, are owners of capital who employ labor.
Small business owners. Landlords. Shopkeepers. People extracting surplus from workers. Indie artists are not the petite bourgeois. Not even close.

by definition artisans and small business owners are the petite bourgeoisie. but they don't mean "you are not providing physical labor and producing resources for the community" you mean "you are spoiled and want to be rich"
