I know there's a lot of passion to help fix what is ailing America. Here's one thought. You live in a school district. See if your district is holding an election for school board this year. If so, find out if there is a pro-public education candidate. If so, do something to support--put up a
The US military industrial complex has rooted itself in Scotland and its historic usage as a playground for British oil and weapons development, making us all complicit by coercion
This illegal invasion of another country while its citizens sleep is a cynical act of American imperialism.
The fact that Venezuela has some of the world’s largest oil reserves makes this feel very familiar.
Greens stand against this contempt of international law.

Oh good it’s the 1970s again
Keir Starmer says he wants to establish facts by *watching Donald Trumps press conference.*
People said giving him a second state visit was a genius move of strategy - really seems to have paid off.
Special relationship - alive and kicking.
America!
55 grades exams and I’m no longer sure what international relations even are (is? Was?). Also, is “liberalist” a word????

Time to reread this seminal work in honor of his son’s victory. Happy Zohran week!
On June 24, I began my Election Night speech by quoting Mandela: “It always seems impossible until it’s done.” That's the spirit of this campaign, and our city.
This is "Until It’s Done,” a new series about New Yorkers who refused to accept that a worthy goal was impossible.
Why yes of course, this is Belle, also addressed as Princesse Belle 😸
I welcome any & all discussion and also here’s the usual palette cleanser:
I fear the death of USAID and “humanitarian reset” will just see elites take over this ready base of humanitarian aid-produced human labor to streamline their extraction/protection rackets; societies turned into perfect war production machines, to put it dramatically
Thinking more about how the West’s humanitarian aid, esp. “food security & livelihoods”, was set up in war-torn countries in large part to create conditions for capitalist expansion. Now many are experiencing the alienation, displacement, & culture death that comes w/ economic “formalization”

These are my @sgsah.bsky.social photo competition submissions, despite not being anything close to a photographer. Gorgeous ride from Cumbrae to Arran yesterday aboard the Waverly; after a huge dolphin pod sighting we arrived back at Millport to a pipe band 🥹
Though have to say, Picking up industrial remains (glass, concrete, piping..) across the way from a decommissioned nuclear plant feels…ominous? But correct for Scotland’s post-industrial/late capitalist crisis
Kicking off another SGSAH residential with some beachcombing ❤️ @sgsah.bsky.social
The truth revealed below.
Yes, AI will have societal benefits. But left unchecked, the downside will drown the upside.
CEOs are going to lay off millions of workers and then use the savings to supersize the concentration of wealth and economic power.
Someone today referred to the fight over USAID as "do we help the right people or do we help the white people" and god damn that's still in my head
I love this phenomenon of registered Republicans doing research in search of truth, uncovering networks of political pay offs & accidentally ending up socialists. More of this! ❤️
My hopes!

I’m tired of myopic social media claims and apparently felt like yelling into the digital ether too
The mainstream media narrative is neoliberal capitalism—not socialism, not conservatism, not classical liberalism. News media won’t expose system failure due to misled austerity AND it won’t overtly support racism—it’ll protect a “middle” open market+mass/margina. labor+private property at all costs
