A friend who grew up in East Germany once told me that he was "too poor to be cheap." I don't know if it's a German saying or his personal motto, but I've always remembered it for moments like these.

I'm a parcel delivery driver. I miss the lockdowns. Everyone used to be so polite, and happy to receive their orders. Ever since though, it's like their collective Karen-ness has come back with a vengeance. People dying was horrible, but at least my job felt worth doing then.

People say AI will replace jobs.
I’m more worried it’ll replace reasons to become good at them.

The forests never declared war on us.
The oceans never betrayed us.
The bees never asked for anything.
Yet somehow…
we’re the ones destroying them.

One day, children will ask why we knew so much about climate change…
and acted so little.

Some people need to be reminded that Margaret Thatcher did not 'deliver a decade of national renewal'. She delivered a decade of deindustrialisation, three million on the dole and widespread poverty.

Well done to the Norwegian Football Association, who have donated 1.5 million NOK to Doctors Without Borders. 🇳🇴⚽ Doctors Without Borders are currently operating in Palestine. 🇵🇸 This money will help save countless lives.

Oh, so you've 'climbed Everest'? How very impressive. The Sherpas that carried all your shit and set up all the camps and basically tried to make sure you didn't die have all done it dozens of times and don't go on about it. Grow up.

I can't believe we're even having this conversation: In the last ten years, NOBODY has engaged in more violent political rhetoric than Donald Trump.
Simon retweeted
Trump was 43 when his wife testified under oath that he ripped hair from her scalp and sexually assaulted her in 1989. She also described a marriage marked by physical abuse.
Trump was 46 when Jill Harth accused him of sexual assault at Mar-a-Lago in 1992.
Trump was 51 when he boasted, on the Howard Stern show, about watching Miss Teen USA contestants change their clothes.
Trump was 57 when he decided NOT to file a police report after being informed that Jeffrey Epstein had attempted to solicit sexual services from a spa employee in 2003.
Trump was 59 when he was recorded making statements in which he boasted about sexually assaulting women.
At some point, you have to be honest with yourself.
There is a pattern of behavior.

men can rape a woman so brutally she needs her tampon surgically removed & then get engaged, have kids, & continue to live in the limelight as if nothing happened. terrible men love to begin a “spiritual journey” after a lifetime of evil. fooling only the lowliest idiots

My best friend is Muslim, and she has been fasting. I’m not a Muslim, and I don’t. We joke about it. She’s going to a white CoE funeral, and calls me to ask what the norms are and what to wear and say. This summer, I’ll be going to a family wedding with her and asking the same.
Because that’s integration.
That’s how you build a society that works.
We don’t all have to be the same.
We just need to have policies that allow for proper mixing and insight.
