Tempted to be very, very rude now, but will abstain. Glorious conclusion to a great week. Tories out, Le Pen sent packing - and a third stage win for the Tour de France! Youpi!
Depressingly but predictably apocalyptic headlines in UK media after 1st round of French elections. RN is not - yet - 'within touching distance of power', but that wouldn't suit the far from innocent agenda of 'chaos in Europe' promoted by right-wing media in this country.

What I am very grateful for is that Southgate has made the England team, however it plays, a very likeable bunch of young men.

The FT is arguably the sanest of all British dailies; but even the FT relegates the Greens and the LibDems's successes in the election (71 seats for the LD, a gain of +63) to the equivalent of a footnote. This is the Reform effect, by which extremists are given extra oxygen by the media. Why?

2. Labour held steady in total votes, but combined with the fractured vote on the right, won a historic parliamentary majority. This is in line with trends elsewhere in Europe. The far right rises and wins when the center-left atomizes (Italy, France) and falls short when it holds (Spain, Portugal).

“Unless our scientific institutions are willing to step up and denounce attacks on those who risk their lives to defend principles of science and public health, the fragile fabric that is our society will begin to unravel. That unravelling is already far advanced in America.” #episky

Where some comic strips read like nothing that came before them, Bill Watterson’s “Calvin & Hobbes” can be read like everything that came before it, all at once – a work of pastiche that mines earlier comics greats for influence and inspiration. #CalvinandHobbes 1/7

In a theocracy, matters of science and modernity are arbitrated on by jurists who rely upon ancient Holy texts to justify their positions.

Government: make sure you don't fall for phishing scams from people doing fake HMRC letters. Conservatives: here's election material made to make you think it's an HMRC letter.

Honestly the scary part of the report is this, because it strongly implies people are going deep down the antizionist-as-antisemitism rabbit hole. We've stepped well above the lizardman constant
Well, that's not terrifying or anything. (Source: www.adl.org/sites/defaul... - couldn't figure out how to get the data into the alt text legibly, so please follow the link if this impacts you)

The system is explicitly not designed to execute the guilty - it’s designed to execute black men, and if they happen to be guilty, great
Marcellus Williams was cleared by DNA evidence and the prosecutor is trying to vacate the conviction, but the state of Missouri still scheduled an execution date for him. Please sign and share this petition innocenceproject.org/petitions/st...
