Handouts to oil and gas firms while people face likely bill hikes.

Reckless and irresponsible at a time when we should be doubling down on renewables not cutting tax to fossil fuel fuel giants.

We need a plan to protect people from the coming price shock.

I think it fails to understand the coalition of voters that just voted Green, and why. And as usual you won’t get very far by implicitly slagging off the voters. The Green voter coalition was your coalition five minutes ago.

You just know if Reform had won the by-election Starmer/Mahmood would be announcing further crack-downs on migrants by this afternoon.

If the Scottish Greens pick up anything from this result I really hope it's having the audacity to stand everywhere, in every election.

I see the UK establishment are having a totally normal one after the by-election result today...

Like why is there thousands of laugh reacts on news stories about children dying? What does that say about the moral fabric of our society that people's grans, uncles, dads are with their full government name laughing openly at something like that?

Genuinely believe the addition of the laugh reaction was the beginning of the downfall of Facebook

A genuine, simple, and effective PPB.

I particularly enjoy the use of nostalgia to bring hope, rather than what you usually seeβ€”nostalgia used to fuel hatred.

a small taxidermy bird wearing a pink cowboy hat rides an alligator head. the bird is holding a rope that is tied around the alligator mouth like a lasso.

It’s not even just the service workers. It is (all) of them. The students. The staff. Just everything. I feel like such a stick in the mud because there’s no way I’m matching your enthusiasm over a free pair of socks

Not to be dramatic but being around Americans and their positivity is exhausting. I’ve saw 3 hi-fives over the most mundane of things

Like, sure I can add to the annoyance by printing off receipts and emailing them so I can get a few hundred Β£ back, or you can just give me something for free and I'll at least feel valued.

I don't quite think companies understand how to make customers happy anymore. I called customer service trying to blag a cabin upgrade as a goodwill gesture.

Agent: "No if you want compensation upload your recepits to [url]"

It isn't just about the compensation, it is about the added stress.

Now onto a flight via Iceland tomorrow, making me late to the orientation, costing me a hotel deposit and the cost of changing my final leg flight to the final destination from New York… thanks a lot Rachel, thanks a lot.

Why are liberals shocked by these bombings? This is literally textbook behaviour by the U.S. They've been doing it since their founding.

So they've kidnapped the leader of another country and western leaders are just... chill with it?
