In economics, as in geopolitics, Trump fundamentally misunderstands the limits of American power. It is at the centre of everything he does. The markets, the only real impediment to him now, may be about to teach him how wrong he is. New writing from me. open.substack.com/pub/goodalla...

Again and again, Trump misunderstands the limits of American power.

And as a result is taking us to a global financial precipice.

That's a blast from the past. I lost track of how many times I re-read Wilson's The Occult in my teenage years.

Here's a cat I met when I was on a run. Does that count? #barkleycats

A floofy ginger/black cat with a white bib allows me to stroke it. My muddy trainer is visible in shot.

There are names on the tracker at barkley.ferrett.io but there's still uncertainty around many of them. I don't think there's a definitive list yet.

Understand that this El Salvador gulag deportation was done partly in order to make the fascist video that the president now transmits, with his fascist message. The cameras are all set up in advance.

If you let the executive deport people to a foreign gulag just by pronouncing the word “terrorism,” then expect to be called a “terrorist” soon yourself.

The concrete flank of a motorway flyover bedecked with high quality graffiti: an alien-seeming blue head wearing a backwards grey baseball cap and a scowl, alongside a hypermodern, angular graffiti tag that's so stylised that I can't read it.

If you don’t get your child vaccinated against measles, it can put them at a high risk of this serious infection, which can lead to severe complications or even death. Make sure your child’s measles vaccination is up to date.

Five years today since we officially Brexited! I remember looking in my stocking and Father Brexit had left me a bottle of salad cream, a Mind Your Language VHS boxset, a Big Break annual and a Matchbox die-cast Capri. Then I put a mug of Bovril through the Soda Stream to celebrate.
