The woman who was having a go at Stephen Flynn on STV news blaming him for her shop being destroyed by Storm Boelo and not acting quickly enough, well lo and behold she is a Tory candidate and activist, the stv news journalist must have known this but failed to mention it, 👇

By any reasonable interpretation the quasi-military activities of far right groups in Scotland breach the 1936 Public Order Act which was introduced to curtail Oswald Moseley's Blackshirts. If no action is taken, these groups will only be emboldened. weegingerdug.wordpress.com/2026/10/27/t...

The BBC make Scotland out to be a run down crime ridden back water. While not perfect, what they do not say is we have less crime, better A&E, more doctors and nurses per head of population, more students in university, less child poverty, less alcohol related admittance to hospital, 👇

Q: Why shouldn't Alaskans find it insulting that the administration is suggesting they can't read the word 'incumbent' on their ballot and know to vote for Sen. Sullivan? JD VANCE: People are busy. People have lives. People have jobs.

I spoke to the mom of the 3-year-old soccer star who was left "thinking he did something wrong" after a league official called police "due to a disturbance between parents" The youth sports league said they launched a review and reached out to the family

Rest in Peace Walter Koenig. Thank you for navigating us through the final frontier, for your years of activism, writing, and memorable characters like the joyous Chekov and the sinister Bester. We're forever grateful that you lent your talents to our game. We'll see you again, in the stars.

These anti-trans Dems are saying "biological males" should be banned from girls sports because they know exactly how bad it sounds if they say "transgender girls" should be banned from girls sports. They're using "biological males" framing as a sort of self-justification and self-soothing.

They rigged the rules and dared us to quit. Bad bet. We don't surrender our power — we use it. On November 3rd, we decide who the system serves. Vote early. Flip the House. Flip the Senate. #BlueWaveIn8Days

The idea bluesky is a bubble is frankly a blinkered notion of what diversity is. I don't deal with republicans anymore, fair enough, but I follow people of all ages, all across US, and abroad, some work in healthcare, industry, teaching, all kinda gender. I learn a lot.

People don’t understand why I keep noting that BlueSky is not a bubble, it is a counterpublic. It serves its own organizational function: you can see in realtime in January 2025, on multiple types of social media, shouting that an executive order is instruction to an agency. This one stuck.

I’m not a political journalist, so was gladly surprised at the community I found here last night. To Americans anxious about the upcoming elections, a key thing we learned in Brazil that might help you: DO NOT engage with the far-right online. Don’t share rage bait. Amplify your people. Ignore them.
