My pal Danielle Koenig shared that her father Walter Koenig passed away last night at age 90. A performer whose kindness and warmth shone through the screen. He will be well remembered.
60 years ago today 144 people died in the Welsh village of Aberfan when a colliery spoil tip collapsed onto them. 109 of those were children attending the village school. A tragedy that broke hearts, which remain broken now. The strength and courage shown by that community is an example to us all.
At the UN General Assembly the orange felon said “America is in a golden age.”
Yea, for you and the ultra wealthy you disgusting thieving criminal tyrant fuckwad, for everyone else it’s a shitty age where people can’t even afford groceries.
I really hate him.
I’ve worn a grubby RNLI cap for decades. I sound London, but I was born in Truro and I was a basically feral (Gen X) kid wandering the coast path with a dog until sunset for a lot of my early life. The lifeboats are in the fabric like trawlers and farms and pasties and fish and chips.

Portsmouth RNLI temporarily suspended services after volunteers received abuse following an anti-migration protest.
@mrjamesob.bsky.social says it's one of the most 'disgusting' stories he's heard throughout his career.
As we elders, our daughters, and our granddaughters continue the fight for power, equality, and respect, we hold you in our hearts with love and gratitude.

At Daisy Chain Fields tonight, Olivia Rodrigo brought out Sarah McLachlan for “Building A Mystery” and “Angel,” dedicated to Dolly Parton. The pop star's festival, which was inspired by McLachlan’s Lilith Fair, raised $10M for women's rights nonprofits, an amount Melinda French Gates is doubling.
In 1976, during an unforgettable episode of her syndicated television variety show Dolly!, Dolly Parton welcomed her close friends and fellow music icons Emmylou Harris and Linda Ronstadt to share the stage.
Had to disable comments on clip of me talking about Jason Arday yesterday on lbc because of sheer volume vile comments suggesting (just as they did with George Floyd) that he ‘deserved’ it.
I think Black people are getting pretty sick of the ‘be perfect or expect us to kill you’ routine.

'Patriot News' reporter Chris Atkins (scatatkins.bsky.social)
was just kicked out of Liz Truss' CPAC conference for asking the wrong questions.
So much for free speech.
£10billion found to have been wasted on PPE but…
‘Barones Hallet said there was "no evidence of cronyism or corruption" by ministers or other officials when awarding the final contracts.’

Yeah… OK. 👀
Donald Trump is not someone to be respected, admired, or appreciated. His morality is atrocious. His actions toward others are reprehensible. He is a bad, unethical person and I will never demean my humanity — all of humanity — to claim otherwise.
The Home Office wants to use faulty AI tech that assesses 14 year olds as adults in the asylum system. It’s super harmful, and could deny vulnerable kids their basic rights. Sign the petition to scrap it now! you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/st...
Now is a good time to point out that under the last government the RUSSIA REPORT showed credible evidence of Russian interference in UK elections and yet both the last and current governments have continually turned a blind eye to the reports jaw-dropping findings
