this is interesting, France has never offered the use of its nuclear weapons to the defence of Europe. the argument has always been that France has too few, that Europe is too large and that there's absolutely no way Paris will burn for the sake of Berlin. The UK on the other hand has for decades

I despair. Instead of trying to tackle the drivers of criminality (poverty, addiction, poverty) they invited tech companies who proposed creating prisons outside of prisons. They'd rather create the infrastructure of oppression than just pay a little more tax.

If our dreams for Zionism are to end in the smoke of assassins' pistols and our labours for its future to produce only a new set of gangsters worthy of Nazi Germany, many like myself will have to reconsider the position we have maintained so consistently and so long in the past.

I've been thinking about this. The UK will never now let Scotland leave willingly. There's too much that's too vital from natural resources like water and electricity to nuclear weapons.

I've never seen this before,it's one of the most stunningly erotic paintings I've ever seen and everything about it is female. You can feel it's a woman lusting after another woman. The languorous almost feline stretch. It's pure feminine sex. Wonderful. www.theguardian.com/culture/2025...
