@br00t4c Surely this is illegal?

@bruces "The street finds its uses"

Today I learned the term "klepto-keynesian".
I despair.

@bruces Elon thinks he's Genghis Khan.

@bruces Phwaor!

Hero.

Are you in the group that says OK, I think we have to deal with the 🌿climate emergency and 🐋species loss, but only if I don't have to change anything about MY life.

Because if you are, shame on you - you are part of the problem instead of being part of the solution.

I hear Zuck doesn't think fact-checking is necessary.

@vegos_f06 Leonard Cohen flirted with just about every religion and every woman and every lifestyle, without committing to any of them.
The only thing he ever really committed to was music, which is what this song is about. I suspect it was the same for Bach; the church was the only employer for musicians at that time.

@openculture I love Leonard Cohen, but that song turns my stomach.

I just came across the phrase -->political affiliation as a team sport<-- to describe the over-polarisation of politics today and I think it really hits the nail on the head.

Many people, (esp men) are from an early age indoctrinated to feel they have to identify with a particular team in a particular sport as part of their identity, and this makes them vulnerable to also seeing politics in this way instead of looking at the issues and policies, problems and solutions.

@ekis You can do both

I don't know who made this, but I salute them 😘

@dansup I sent you some coffee money, I hope it at least helps a bit.

I am trying to remember a single xmas when the CND postal workers have not gone on strike, but...

@dansup I think we should do all we can to keep crypto currency (a synonym for grift) out of the fediverse.

@davetroy He's 72, how can he think he'd live long enough to head up something like that?

@Gargron 👍🏽 👍🏽 😊

@kim_harding We want slow tourism. NC500 people blitz through in over-powered cars, treat Caithness like some scenic backdrop on their high speed weekend jaunt, spend one night in an AirBnB, spend as little as possible money and leave behind tons of air pollution.
