Simple. Labour has moved to the right not left, ditched its promised policies, and alienated its core support. Starmer, McSweeney and his coterie need to go as soon as possible, or Labour is finished
A year after Britain's Labour Party won a landslide election victory, it's fortunes have fallen fast. Prime Minister Keir Starmer's popularity is at an hist...
I hope so because it is not redeemable. Once you have people like Starmer at the helm and Akehurst as an MP, there is no recovery. It cannot be turned back. It has become a desert. Many of us will never be able to vote4 Labour again.
If a party moves its position, alienating its former voter base, then its entirely legitimate to argue it has simply moved to becoming the party it was formerly set up to oppose. Today's Labour establishment is made of Tories. Pro-war, pro-capitalism, pro-authoritarian, anti-ecological.
“This new law finally recognises a truism that has been known since time immemorial: it is foxes, and only foxes, with their innate dexterity and unique set of instincts, that must be permitted to rule over every hen house.”

These killings weren’t accidents. They weren’t provoked. They didn’t come about as an attempt to quell riots. The people killed were not collateral damage in attempts to kill Hamas fighters.
Si, es la forma mas barata que se me ha ocurrido de "agilizar" el pc. He comprado varios modulos de RAM DDR3 en Ali, estan muy baratos. Este es el segundo pc que consigo de la empresa donde curro y que los esta sustituyendo al no ser compatibles con W11. Si consigo mas pcs les pondré un modulo de 8 GB y se quedarían con 16GB en total, que para mover Linux es mas que suficiente. En principio se los voy a donar a gente del pueblo de mis padres que no tienen ordenador y enseñarles lo basico para moverse en Linux y navegar por internet. A este le he puesto 32GB pq me lo voy a quedar yo y queria empezar a usar maquinas virtuales. La configuracion base de estos pcs de la empresa es 8GB de RAM+disco mecanico 1TB+ disco ssd de 120 GB
Vaya proyecto más guapo. Donde yo trabajo cuando me dejan un ordenador pregunto si lo puedo reutilizar y si no hay problema también los "reutilizo" con discos duros reutilizados, ram recuperada y ya solo instalo Linux. Después los regalo a quien los necesite. El ciclo completo. 😊
Solche Vorschläge beruhen auf einer rassistischen Vorstellung und verstärken sie (sehr wahrscheinlich bewusst). Hier werden Menschen mit am wenigsten Macht als Probleme definiert, um Schuldige zu erzeugen, statt tatsächliche Probleme zu lösen. Das ist billig und so auf so vielen Ebenen beschämend.
Da ja Schulpflicht herrscht, lässt sich das mathematisch nur erreichen, indem die “migrantischen Kinder" gleichmäßiger auf die Schulen verteilt werden. Also wenn das umgesetzt wird, indem deren Familien geförderten Wohnraum in den bisher weißesten Schulbezirken bekommen… Ach Frau Prien, SO haben Sie das nicht gemeint?

So when I went to Canada a month ago it felt like we were on the brink of WW3 but now I'm back and in Washington DC to do some production stuff for 4th of July and aside from heavily opinionated stickers on lamp posts, everything seems... fine? People are talking about some kind of bill that got a validation stamp. I'm not sure what it's about though. Maybe I should turn on the news.
I've been encountering a lot of vocally religious people recently and it's catching me off guard because in my brain, any version of "god" is synonymous with "the tooth fairy" so I'm standing there perplexed why an adult is talking to me about how they're basking in the tooth fairy's love and how the tooth fairy is the ultimate power in the universe and how even me not believing in the tooth fairy is all part of the tooth fairy's plan for my character arc. As for me, I can neither confirm nor deny that the tooth fairy exists. I just simply accept that certain things are unknowable and while lore to explain it all is certainly interesting, I will never consider it historical fact.

It’s so frustrating that there is this illusion that we are all 49%/49% right now. Us versus them, good versus bad, and it’s all because of the BS that is the electoral system. It’s very likely 70% versus 30% and we’re just not seeing representative government.There’s just no common sense right now
Absolutely insane that every vote is a squeaker, and literally no one wants this bill but they don’t wanna get primaried. This bill is insane trash and will make everyone’s life worse except mine. And I don’t want the tax break. I want to pay for kids meals and Headstart with my taxes.
#mood, including the second part. An inlaw’s estate dodges some taxes, my lone worry is risks to how I’m buying “marketplace” health insurance. But largely, I get a few bucks more and the safety net crumbles. Fucking hell no thank you.
I think the first two years of college should be free, student loans should be at 0% interest and available to anyone who needs one, we should take care of our veterans, we should have free public transportation, the post office is not a business and should not be run like one, healthcare is a right
I am with you. I don’t understand this at all. This bill will make me more rich (tax breaks), but I don’t need it, I don’t want it. I want rich people like myself to pay their fair share. And it makes everything worse for almost everyone else.

your words: "In the meantime, I'm decluttering... It's crazy how much crap we accumulate... From a very early age... right from training... The main value, the future, people, money, I declutter... THE SUPPORTER OF THE LEAST IS STRONG" ---------NOW declutter me and keep your ass off this page
It's nice of you to remind me of what I wrote, but I'm not old enough to have forgotten it. Is that what you think communism is? What a poor culture. It's Cynic philosophy, by Diogenes, 2500 years before communism. Communists take care of society. That doesn't concern me.
If you had read my entire page (but your eyes are getting tired, it's normal at your age) you would have seen my hashtags... Cynicism, kunism, but not communism...
Kunists believers in Kunism.We are Followers of Zero, Inhabitants of the Home of Judges,We are People of the 7th realm. Disciples of the Orange Men.We meditate create stories, travel the 7th realm and report our findings.
I have no idea what you're talking about. If you want to know more about Kunism, read Diogenes. Nothing else exists. And there's certainly no question of a kingdom, whatever that may be. Diogenes is, among other things, the inventor of the word “cosmopolitan”. It's just a way of living outside the system.
Some people talk about minimizing social media time and the associated doomscrolling, but every day Mastodon reminds me of how many kind, caring people there are. And how many I'm privileged to know on here. (And how many have adorable cats. Or dogs. Or goats.) People who appreciate the beauty around us; people who want to save the environment; people who want a good life for everyone.
It lifts me up, even when the news is horrific. Thank you all.
Feeling overwhelmed, like the worst of us make the rules for the rest of us? Like empathy feels like a curse right now? It just hurts, and you feel helpless?
You are worth fighting for. Sometimes winning doesn't look glamorous, it just looks like not giving up. Care for yourself, for the ones you love, being strong and feeling strong are not the same thing, just don't quit. I love you all, I'm sorry it's hard, but we need each other, community is essential.

Today when about to start one of the shows on my stage at this festival, an intern who looked like she must still be in high school full out dropped and busted one of the cameras another team was supposed to be recording with. She was clearly horrified and on the verge of tears but luckily her supervisor was very chill about it basically saying "ya live and ya learn!" I think that's great because that's exactly what I was thinking but I also know that if I were 17 I'd be thinking my life was over. 😅
Sure it can. But the question is, can it do that powering the enrichment and reprocessing infrastructure with windmills while making sure a sea turtle doesn poke it's eye out with a plastic straw? 🤔
Following the Russian invasion of Ukraine and the on-and-off Russian nuclear threats, scholars have been analyzing Europe's defense capabilities against Moscow's huge nuclear warhead fleet.
@nanook UK doesn't count since they don't have their own delivery system and they left the EU. The french are, you know, the french. Also, they have only, like, 290 warheads against Russia's 5000+. It's literally like showing up with a vagina to a dick measuring contest ;)
@pat The question wasn't, "Can European Union Build It's Own Atomic Arsenal", it was, "Can Europe Build Its Own Atomic Arsenal", and the question of delivery systems also wasn't there either, though I would argue it's easier to develop a delivery system than the weapons themselves, the massive conventional missile response from Iran demonstrates that.
@nanook you are right. But that's yet another issue there. Many countries in Europe feel kinda uncomfortable relying on the likes of the french and/or the Brits for nuclear deterrence. Technically, it's all NATO, well, almost all, but Eastern European countries kinda have bad memories of relying on allies when shit really hits the fan.
@pat I feel uncomfortable with their existence at all. It only takes one whack job and ww III here we are and an hour later the species is extinct, and we've had a succession of whack jobs here.
@nanook i feel ya. Unfortunately tho that shop has sailed a long time ago. But on the bright side, the risk is somewhat exaggerated. There's not enough nukes to make humanity extinct. Not by a long shot. Civilization would probably go the way of the dodos, and we'd go back to the stone age, sure, but extinction? C'mon ;)
@pat There are enough nukes that would lead to at the very least the entire collapse of civilization. Keep in mind the average H-bomb is between 100kt and 10mt though over 50mt bombs have been exploded. This makes Hiroshima and Nagasaki look like a fire cracker, and the Russians have 5000 or so, not sure what our current count is, and it's hard to say how accurate either is, but suffice it to say it would not be good for humanity. There is the nuclear winter theory, it's hard to know exactly how much dust would be churned into the upper atmosphere for how long, there is just how large of an area would be rendered uninhabitable after the explosion of all arsenals. These are all things that speculating on in detail is somewhat fruitless and there are some scientific experiments that are better left untried.
I'm not convinced. The earth is massive, there are a lot of people living in mountains who will never really be affected by anything. They're going to keep reproducing and keep teaching their kids how to read and write. What's really at risk is long and complex supply chains - especially those which depend on esoteric knowledge, like chip fabs. That said, there's a pretty good chance of those surviving as well, because while it is esoteric, it's also going to be the second thing every remaining country thinks of, after "food, water, shelter"...
@cjd @nanook yeah, I mean it sure wouldn't be easy and average lifespan would go down to like 20, maybe 30 years, but we'll definitely recover eventually. And considering that practicality every human society in recorded history developed some form of written language within like 1000 years sinc domestication of plants and animals became a thing, I'm not very concerned there with. We are way more resilient bunch than most of us realize.
@cjd @nanook might actually be a good thing when you think about it. Perhaps if we restart the civilization from scratch, we'll know how many genders there are this time around 😂😂😂😂
Demographic effects of a nuclear war is something I've seen mentioned before. The fact that high trust people tend to self-segregate to rural areas where they won't deal with low-trust people is relevant to what a post-apocalyptic world might look like.
@cjd @nanook oh absolutely. The high-trust city folk will be wiped out, that's fosho. After all, when you hit the big red button you target the population centers. Seems kinda obvious. I'll prolly be relatively good, at least for a while. Have a chunk of strategically insignificant land in the shithole of the Philippines. Even made friends with the local tribesmen and their shaman. We can start repopulating right there lol
@pat @Caleb James DeLisle In another half billion years our Sun will have expanded to the point where it boils all the oceans off and fries any remaining life. So my take is we had better develop interplanetary and even intersolar ability soon or assuming somehow we don't kill ourselves off sooner surely we and all other life here will disappear then. It's a bit depressing to me that we haven't discovered intelligent life elsewhere because I'm not sure it exists here.
@pat Based upon present day genetic variety, and I know visually it appears there is a lot but really it's very little for a species of our complexity, it is estimated that between 900,000 to 800,000 years ago there were fewer than 1000 individuals world-wide and that condition persisted for 100,000 years, so yea we "survived" but by a hair, and now are genetic diversity is reduced to the point where our ability survive something of similar severity would be doubtful.
Business is really booming for me right now. 👀 I keep half joking about needing to find a real job at some point but it has kind of hit me that somehow all these not real jobs have become a vocation of sorts because people will ask me an obvious question about... whatever it is... and I'll think "how could they not know this?" then I realize "oh I'm only thinking this because I've been doing this for ten years and this is their first time."
@GalacticTurtleBeing able to cut it as a freelancer is a big accomplishment. I know at 10 people who tried production jobs in the movies, and only one who made it pay off.
@LostInCaliforniaOh wow I did not think of it that way! If I were the tattoo type, I'd get a tally mark for each tour and let people assume it stood for the number of people I've killed. XD
Der Tögel ist doch genauso wie der Ganser oder die Guerot eine dieser gefallenen Mädchen der Publizistik, welche zu viel Quatsch erzählt haben und daher keine richtigen Jobs mehr bekommen und die sich um ihre Miete weiter bezahlen zu können auch noch dem allerletzten AfD Nazipack hinter der nächsten Mülltonne hingeben müßen. Für Geld. Was für ein trauriges Schicksal.
Das beschreibt exakt das Geschäftsmodel von Ganser, Guerot und ihren ganzen anderen Strolch Freunden. Wenn du meinst, das sei anders, erkläre das bitte. PS Du kannst lachen? Aber nicht echt? Oder?
PPPS Bei einem rechtsradikalen Kinderschänder ist der auch schon aufgetreten. Der Ganser. Aber das stört dich wohl weniger. Du hasst ja Jugendliche. Von daher dürftest du für Kinder auch nicht so viel übrig haben. Auf jeden Fall nicht für echte Kinder. Die sich nun einmal anders benehmen, als es deinen Propaganda Broschüren steht.
Der Ganser hat Kinder, schlägt diese nicht und ist verdammt guter Historiker , der sich nicht vor bestimmten Themen drückt. Hier geht es aber um Tögel und alles was er hier sagt ist belegt.
Ich habe geschrieben, daß Ganser auf dem Kongress eines Kinderschänders aufgetreten ist. PS Ob der Ganser seine Kinder schlägt oder nicht wissen wir nicht. Auf jeden Fall hat er keine Berührungsängste zu brutalen rechtsradikalen Kinderschändern.

Corporations that publicly endorsed Trump's megabill. These are not companies that supported the bill by donating to the politicians that voted for it (although most did that too). These are companies that endorsed the bill publicly and were featured on a White House webpage. People should know the companies that made this choice.
