okay, that's pretty good

Except from a Wikipedia article:
During the 2001 Microsoft antitrust case, the names MICROS~1 and MICROS~2 were humorously used to refer to the companies that might exist after a proposed split of Microsoft.

This point needs to be made over and again: The main purpose of wealth taxes should not be to raise revenue. That's a small and secondary benefit. The main purpose should be to *reduce the fortunes of the ultrarich*. Why? Because those fortunes present a massive threat to democracy and public life.

The Court of Appeal judgement on Palestine Action is frankly bonkers. It says PA is not "a direct action civil disobedience protest group like the suffragettes operating transparently in the open." Right: the arson, bombings, slashings etc were all planned in open meetings in Parliament Square 🙄🧵

A legend, an icon and a trailblazer.

4 frame comic. first frame shows the ibm building, 2nd shows a smartphone, 3rd shows a trans flag, and 4th shows Lynn Conway, smiling. Text reads: After Lynn Conway transitioned in 1968, she lost her family and was fired from her job at IBM. she went on to pioneer the microchip technology that powers your smartphone. She has been a tireless advocate for trans rights and an inspiration for trans leaders everywhere. She was a legend, an icon and a trailblazer. She will be thoroughly missed.
