The enshitifcation of British life in a single story

A reminder of the story behind the woeful Americanisation and decimation of an iconic British Brand, Cadbury, that was so much more than just a brand of chocolate, but also a proud British project for social improvement. apple.news/AROmsXsYiR2m...

The "hydration break" really is a perfect American capitalist innovation: a nakedly commercial play to insert more ad revenue into a game that doesn't have ads anywhere else in the world, all under the guise of some humanitarian interest in the players' wellbeing.

I put the Russians in their place at the UN Security Council and debunked one of Putin's historical myths 👊🏻 When Kyiv was the capital of the largest state in Europe in the 12th century, where Moscow stands today, there was a swamp where only frogs croaked 🐸😉 By: Andrii Melnyk

in 80 years historians will simplify the cause of WW3 to the US President being a pedophile, sorta like WW1 was archduke ferdinand getting shot

Trump finally has something in common with his idol. They both launched poorly planned wars out of pure hubris, without any backup plan. Neither achieved their goals, and now everyone else is paying the price for their catastrophic military failures

Stopping gas dictating UK energy price could cut bills by £200. Renewables are the cheapest but Ofgem's pricing links electricity price to gas, enables profiteering. Gas produced energy must be decoupled from the rest. Public ownership is even better for ending profiteering and lower bills

It's almost like being fabulously rich doesn't make you happy or well adjusted. It's almost like it makes you sad and lonely. And leaves you forever casting about for scapegoats to offset your deep self-loathing. Thank you Jim Ratcliffe and Elon Musk for these important life lessons.

worth noting that the second rich people stopped being afraid of mobs tearing them limb from limb, they stopped building libraries and opera houses and stuff and started ripping the copper wiring out of the walls of society instead

Always knew she was tone deaf, but today of all days!! Ffs!

My attendance record in the European Parliament was the 4th worst out of 751 MEPs, yet I managed to turn up to vote AGAINST plans to tackle Russian misinformation. Thankfully this is of no interest to the media.

I for one think the Epstein Ballroom will be magnificent. I love the decor theme of “what if Uday Hussein ran a Ramada Inn.” And giving it a theme song everyone will associate with it is a stroke of brilliance! “Thank Heaven for Little Girls” is very catchy.

Nigel Farage doesn’t think the Prime Minister should have free speech in this country. But he’ll tell foreigners that yours is somehow under threat from the Prime Minister. He’s a whiny little liar. Always has been. Always will be.

“Nigel Farage says….” has been the headline of the decade. Look at what he does, ffs. Look at his tax affairs. Look at his grifting. Look at his lies. Look at his prejudice. Look at his allies. Look at his manifesto. Look at his Brexit. He is the embodiment of personal greed and national failure.

5/5 Bottom line: Trump says he wants to “end the war,” but refuses to pressure russia—the aggressor. If he pushes Ukraine instead, tomorrow could be a disaster. Europe must hold the line. Ukraine cannot surrender. The world is watching

You are up to date.
