Israel's attempt to destroy Jewish journalist by outing him as gay somehow backfires
Apparently, everyone already knew...
As you know, all Jews are expected to unequivocally support Israel's genocide, otherwise they are antisemites. Jews are not allowed to think for themselves and any Jews that say or do the right thing must be punished.It is for this reason that Mossad decided to bring down Jewish traitor Glenn Greenwald.

The workers have spoken: They’re staying home.
And companies can't make them come into the office. Really.

Given the rate at which businesses are closing as the nation’s economy collapses, Israel is going to learn there is a heavy price to pay for genocide, even if the price is nowhere near enough.
Germany still pays reparations to Israel for the holocaust - Israel should certainly do the same for Gaza and the West Bank. Palestinians deserve compensation for the holocaust they have endured.

Katie Halper was sacked from The Hill for describing Israel as an apartheid state and giving compelling reasons why.
Britain’s second richest man is cancelling TV shows at the request of Netanyahu, but if you highlight concerns over Zionist influence on our media, you’re the problem?

Finding common ground.
They were the most unlikely of seat mates.
Lyndon Johnson, the former president, out of office just six months, and Spiro Agnew, the new Vice President.
They had come to Florida from opposite poles of the political universe to watch men take off for the Moon.
And they sat there, side by side, dressed in suits and ties in 85-degree sunshine, and ‘made nice’ for the cameras.
It happened 55 years ago.

Trump chooses Vance because he couldn't find anyone with a higher opinion of him
What matters is the man of steel has a running mate now
While recovering from a painful cut on his ear, Donald Trump is courageously focusing on his two priorities: getting back on the campaign trail and releasing merchandise to cash in on the assassination attempt.

UK about to swap utter bastards who wear blue for utter bastards who wear red

The people of the UK must be hugely excited today because after 14 years of being ruled by utter bastards who wear blue, they are about to vote for utter bastards who wear red!

South Korea:
4B is shorthand: bihon, is the refusal of heterosexual marriage. Bichulsan is the refusal of childbirth, biyeonae is saying no to dating, and bisekseu is the rejection of heterosexual sexual relationships.

Democracy never survives an affordability crisis
Everyone is tired. The times we live have become an age of exhaustion. Overwork, underwork, the cost of living crisis, stress, the end of public healthcare, and a pandemic along with a forever war in Ukraine and a genocide in Gaza have derailed our society. It has left us no time to catch our breath. So we are weary, uncertain, angry and very afraid.

"I was an Autistic psychiatric inpatient: Here’s what I would change in the mental health system "
Autistic people are exposed to inordinately high rates of trauma and mistreatment. It is unsurprising then that a large portion of us develop mental health struggles. Where there are concerns around mental health, there are also issues regarding inpatient treatment, both voluntary and involuntary, under the UK’s Mental Health Act.

I don't know if we are too late to stop the construction of fascism as the dominant ideology in our own countries, anymore.
The weather this April felt worse than we deserved. It probably wasn't because even T.S. Eliot called it the cruellest month over a hundred years ago. Still, there is a sharp edge to April 2024.

We live in a new Gilded Age, and we are on the outside looking in.
You do not need to be an economist or a historian to know that our era is an epoch of enormous class inequality. 2024 is a new Gilded Age, where affordable housing is extinct in Britain, Western Europe, Canada and the USA, and renters are a permanent underclass.

@LaChasseuse @CloudyMrs Thank you!

@CloudyMrs @LaChasseuse Sorry, I am not a National newspaper subscriber, and, while I can read it by saving it in the "pocket" facility in Firefox, obviously that doesn`t work for you. I received the link through an email from Scottish Greens.
I understand that there are concerns about creating national parks, but with biomass of domestic species exceeding wild species now, reserved natural spaces are essential for humans and the planet.
Bob Jamieson
@CloudyMrs @LaChasseuse Edited and put up a new link.

The more national parks Scotland has, the better off we will be
