And to be clear I donβt think that means an entire generation is screwed or full of bad people, in fact I think a lot about the kids who are trying to do their best and be moral in a world that teaches them to be immoral

Difficult to emphasize just how much a generation of kids has been taught that being dishonest, superficial, and narcissistic is the pathway to attention and therefore success

The Minutemen: left to right, George Hurley, D.Boon, Mike Watt, all holding car keys up triumphantly.
Yes, Iβm religious. I believe in the Holy Trinity.
Woodcarved creature (Siren Head) with very long skeletal arms and legs, also too many ribs. Its head is a pole with two speakers and wires. Those speakers have teeth. On the highest speaker, a nest with a pigeon. Siren Head is extending its left arm, point a finger forward. A pigeon sits on its index.
Siren Head and friends
Siren Head is a creation from the artist Trevor Henderson @slimyswampghost.bsky.social

Absolute bellends, all of them.

I'm trying. I'm really trying.
Scrapping jury trials is an affront to the very foundations of our democracy.
From the moment this government was elected, it has come after the civil liberties we all hold dear.
This is yet another outrageous assault on our fundamental freedoms. I will be voting against it.
So I did a search: it's a term I've never heard used.
I'm old enough to not know what it signifies.
No, a jury hasn't, but a discussion between twelve people under oath, who have to reach a consensus, has worked for hundreds of years.

the mantis shrimp has 16 types of color receptors.
humans have 3.
we see roughly 10 million colors and think that's impressive.
the mantis shrimp is sitting there processing a visual reality so hyperchromatic that scientists genuinely aren't sure what it's like to be one.

They are intending to hand the process over to local magistrates, who often have no legal background or training.
From mandatory ID cards to arresting pensioners for holding up cardboard signs to cosy deals with US tech spy firms:
It's good to see lawyers pushing back on their increasingly authoritarian Govenrment.
We must protect jury trials.
Any neighbour who did that to me would find the door locked.
Lets' brace ourselves...
Our cost of living is about to rise. Again.
Food.
Petrol.
Mortgages.
Why?
Because Trump needed a distraction from the Epstein files and another opportunity to make himself and his billionaire mates even richer
And the result?
How much more evidence do we need? The ultra-rich and the governments supporting them will destroy everything for the sake of profit, power and pride. Nothing is precious to them - not human life, not the living world - except their own wealth and status. Our survival depends on resisting them.
I saw the film once. Had no idea what was going on and, since I've never seen it again, still don'tππ€ͺ
Not wrong either. You could cut concrete with that voice.
Comment of the month: "I recently saw a Facebook comment from someone who said Cilla [Black] has a voice like a fire in a pet shop. I laughed for at least 5 minutes."
