What is something that brought you Joy today? For me it was this little bundle of mushrooms looking like the softest yummiest bread rolls growing at the foot of this plant.

HSBC made £900 every SECOND over the last three months. The case for taxing these bumper profits to support people with the cost of living crisis is overwhelming. Great to see our analysis featured in @mirror.co.uk 👇 www.mirror.co.uk/money/hsbc-b...

You would think using one of Britain’s most notorious racist slurs directly in front of an Asian woman would be awkward enough. Young Bob then tries to explain to her why he thinks there is actually nothing wrong with it.

Facebook also froze my account for no reason a month before my election as a Democratic candidate in West Phoenix Arizona! With no explanation and I had done nothing wrong and been careful about my words. Obvious meddling by Zuckerberg on behalf of oligarchs. Billionaires need to be outlawed.

Sure MAGA. Bring your child to see Trump cuss, talk about the tight butt of a candidate, and spew hate. Then go home and complain about how liberals are a bad influence on your children.

Yesterday on fallow land I saw plants that once buzzed with bees & insects before 2000… now silent. Pesticides didn’t just kill pests. They wiped out the pollinators that keep us alive. No bees = no food security. This is environmental terrorism by design.

Super-rich get ‘double dividend’ from causes and costs of climate crisis. They profit from polluting industries, and through the ‘adaptation economy’. Super-rich buy govts, control means of production and think tanks. Victims pay higher prices for food, homes, relocations. Who governs?
