Thinking of the USA today. I remember the raw fear of facing off against the Apartheid police force in the 1980s in Johannesburg. Peaceful protest works! Solidarity from South Africa!

Thank you, Trump, for offering to take all our racist fascist countrymen. You are doing South Africa a favour.

Word of day is ‘unasinous’ (17th century): united in stupidity.
A riff on ‘unanimous’: which comes from the Latin for ‘one mind’. ‘Unasinous’ means ‘one ass’.

Elon's neurodivergence is immaterial. He supports far right groups. If he looks like a fascist and sounds like a fascist and salutes like a fascist, he's not hiding what his politics are.

She crashed the economy alright!
Lawyers for Liz Truss have asked me to stop saying Liz Truss crashed the economy. I only said Liz Truss crashed the economy because Liz Truss did crash the economy. If she wanted me to not say Liz Truss crashed the economy, she shouldn’t have crashed the economy.
Please don’t share.
