@Strandjunker It's absurd how many Americans fail to grasp that Trump serves only himself and his cabal, and manifestly doesn't give a shit about his duty to the USA.

mastodon 4.7.2I am a liberal socialist who is opposed to the right-leaning Westminster government and to the archaic, undemocratic political system by which it was handed power. I live in Scotland and support the campaign for Scottish independence. I support the right to peaceful protest. Nuclear weapons are not a deterrent; they are a means to our swift annihilation. If unchecked, climate change is the slower path to the same end.

@MiasAlt@sunny.garden @aral@mastodon.ar.al Last I knew, rare books weren't destroyed:

Has new information come to light which contradicts this?

@aral @groxx @shibacomputer @Mer__edith There does now seem to be the option to prevent this behaviour with the 'Who can find me by number' setting.

@claushoumann @randahl My thoughts exactly. The Trump administration will stop at nothing.
There are approximately 43 million people of working-age in the UK of which 4.4 million are now claiming sickness or incapacity benefit. EU statistics show that around 10‑15% of the European working‑age population is unable to work due to a mental‑health condition.
Why is Streeting ordering a review when UK stats are in line with the European average?

@groxx @shibacomputer @Mer__edith I wasn't aware that Signal was ever coded to spam users' contacts without asking first. Are you absolutely certain that your wife didn't accidentally approve this action?

While Reform can't win outright, they may be asked to form a government.
Discounting devolved regions, the English vote could be split fairly equally between Lab, Con, Green, LD and Reform.
Reform might receive the most votes of those five and form a coalition with the Tories?

@IndyRichard I totally agree. The world desperately needs people to take out Trump and Netanyahu, and I don't mean to lunch.

@gedeonm@mastodon.social Yet still the #Republican party give this madman their unequivocal support.

@VeroniqueB99@mastodon.social Remember also that British Foreign Secretary David Lammy views JD Vance not as a business associate, but as his good buddy.

@parismarx@mastodon.online This is a great article - very useful, thank you.
The only thing I'd add (subtract, actually) is not to bother with #PCloud. I tried it on MacOS and it didn't work effectively. When I tried to uninstall it I found that it requires a considerable level of technical knowledge to completely remove it from your computer. The software's developer doesn't offer effective uninstallation instructions.

@ktdoggett@c.im I'm very interested in the content of the post, but I question everything, and especially that which reinforces my own beliefs/opinions.
The issue with anything in which there's even a single error is that it casts doubt upon the validity of the whole.
