I like the idea…but don’t Jack torpedo Vine the first time after Twitter bought it? Like it’s his fault it died in the first place. They had a tik tok killer before Tik Tok even came out
Vine reboot called diVine has been launched 📱

I go through a follow/unfollow cycle with brother Will here, but when he’s right, he’s right
To be honest I’m pretty sure the “sincere“ eugenicists - i.e., people who are in favor of immigration from China or wherever - are simply racists whose fixation is specifically ANTI-BLACK RACISM instead of strict white supremacy
there are a few sincere eugenicists like Richard Hannania and they are meaningfully different than just garden-variety racists (no, this is not me saying "they're great! I love them! no problems!"). in theory it's an elitist but not necessarily racist mindset. in practice it like 90% is.

That’s why we’ll be working to unseat both Republicans as well as corporate Democrats who have kowtowed to the Trump agenda and replace them with Working Families Party champions who will fight to lower the cost of living and guarantee health care for every family.

I try to follow UK politics because, during DJT 1, I became interested in their Brexit saga, and Labour under Corbyn, and the Grenfell tragedy, and the Windrush scandal also. I’m sure there are substantial differences, but Labour seems to be in the same boat as the Democratic Party
Labour’s not very well concealed plan to “end the culture war” was to simply concede to the vicious, wacko wingnuts right across the board. How would we say that plan has gone, lads? Has it succeeded brilliantly, are we all pals again now you’ve been pandering to the fuckers for years.

Two panels commemorating the contribution of Black American soldiers towards the liberation of the Netherlands in World War Two have been quietly removed from a cemetery in Limburg. It follows a complaint by right-wing think tank The Heritage Foundation to the American Battle Monuments Commission.

It’s hard to believe but there was a cartoon about an immigrant mouse and it was seen as totally fine and not controversial and not woke because it was an aspirational and nice thing about America that people could come here and find a better life

After emancipation, Black schoolteacher & future Alabama state legislator William V. Turner reported to the Freedmen's Bureau that local officials were illegally withholding food assistance from Black mothers, telling them it "is not for negroes, but for the poor white women."

Might be my memory but I’m pretty sure there was a London spinoff in the 2d days before GTA 3. GTA, like Fallout, are inherently stories about the US though
