It was a bit too foggy up on Glastonbury Tor on this morning's walk. Some colour in the leaves though. Taken on my phone.

If you can't tell which of these men is "fundamentally motivated by hatred" and which it is entirely rational to be frightened of, I think you have completely lost your human bearings.

This dude has an essay as his pinned post which is infuriating enough to make me want to get the technicolour pens of doom out of retirement.
One big reason why we have not defeated gender ideology in UK is that powerful women wanted to keep the whole fight for their sex. Deliberately excluding men from participating in the hard work needed to win is a gross act of self sabotage that has doubtless cost lives. Be angry.

‘To hell with a world that talks endlessly about human rights while leaving children to drown inside their tents. To hell with everyone who has witnessed this suffering and chosen silence…’ #RemembranceDay
I admit that I completely broke down today. I cried uncontrollably. I couldn’t hold myself together after witnessing what I saw with my own eyes. Today, we went to film a journalistic report inside the displacement tents along the seashore. I swear, what we witnessed was beyond what any human being should have to endure. I saw men crying bitterly. Men I had never seen cry when they lost their children or when their homes were destroyed. Today, I saw them crying because they were powerless to do the simplest thing: protect their children from the water and the cold. We spoke to families who told us they had spent the entire night carrying their children in their arms after floodwater covered the floors of their tents and soaked their mattresses. They couldn’t find a single dry place to put their children. They couldn’t even give them a few hours of sleep. I saw children no older than five, without proper clothes to protect them from the cold, without heating, and without a dry place to sleep. Children shivering inside tents that cannot keep out the rain, protect them from the wind, or provide even the most basic sense of safety. What more must happen for this world to act? How much more suffering must people endure before someone remembers that they are human beings? I am sick of this world. I am sick of its hypocrisy and empty slogans. To hell with a world that talks endlessly about human rights while leaving children to drown inside their tents. To hell with everyone who has witnessed this suffering and chosen silence, and to hell with the governments and institutions that have the power to act but continue to turn their backs on us.

Did you know the Israelis concentrated the Palestinians in Gaza in the low lying areas, that always flood? Did you know the IDF will kill any Palestinian who leaves the flooded concentration camp? Did you know Israel bombed every single water desalination plant in Gaza?
Contrary to popular belief, Israel does not control the weather.

Stephen Miller becomes White House Chief of Staff tomorrow, and from where I’m sitting, it looks like the man about to run the White House was bought and paid for before he walked in the door. I followed the money around him and his wife Katie, and it leads to Elon Musk, a foreign government’s lobbyists, her father’s mailbox and investors nobody is allowed to see. Full article is up on my Substack now (link in bio and it's free). Highlights below: 🚩 Red Flag 1: A dark money group funded by Elon Musk sent $43 million to a group that Miller’s own charity controls. That is Musk money flowing into Miller’s political machine, and none of it has to be disclosed to you. 🚩 Red Flag 2: Musk’s super PAC paid Katie Miller’s firm $884,367, and some of that money came while she was working beside him at DOGE. She was on his payroll and inside the government at the same time. 🚩 Red Flag 3: Katie bought more than $1 million of stock in Musk’s AI company one business day before the Pentagon announced it would use that AI. The trade was never reported, and the rules say it should have been. 🚩 Red Flag 4: Abu Dhabi’s state AI fund owns a piece of that same company. Eight days before Miller got the job, a firm in the same consulting group Katie came from signed a $100,000-a-month contract with the UAE. So, a foreign government now has money on both sides of this household. 🚩 Red Flag 5: Miller was paid $202,000 through a family company listed in his father-in-law’s name. Its clients were the Trump campaign and the Trump-Vance transition, and the transition still won’t say who its donors are. So we don’t know whose money paid him (owns him). 🚩 Red Flag 6: The dark money group Miller’s charity controls paid $156,000 to Borglum LLC, a company with no Florida registration and no named owner. Its address was box 361, the same mailbox as that family company. Based on the records, I think that donor money landed with the Millers. 🚩 Red Flag 7: Katie Miller’s podcast gets about 15,000 views an episode, yet her podcast company has 3,333,333 preferred shares for investors who never have to be named. Nobody puts money into a 15,000-view podcast for the ratings. So who bought in, and what did they get? 🚩 Red Flag 8: About $1.4 million in their kids’ accounts disappears from his ethics form with no sale reported, and a sale of stock in a Pentagon-backed company was reported at less than half of what it was worth. That form is the only way the public can see what the Chief of Staff owns, and it doesn’t match the money. Any one of these might have an innocent explanation. But eight of them around the most powerful staffer in the White House shows a pattern, and the public deserves to know who is paying him. The full article is up now on my Substack (link in bio) with every receipt, including the filings, the mailbox records and the UAE contract. Enjoy!

The images of kids submerged in freezing floodwater, in flimsy tents that won't survive another winter, make me SICK. I think of Primo Levi’s words that every European learns by heart at school - only to forget when entering politics or diplomacy. The shame of our time.
Palestinians are crying for help from sewage-flooded tents. In just 12 hours, 70,000 tents have been submerged in floodwater and sewage after heavy rains.

He contributed to the extrajudicial murder of your own citizens and the degradation of your standing as a democracy in the eyes of the world.
Stephen has contributed far more to America at 41 than Abdul El-Sayed will in a lifetime.

Muting this now because, whilst it was entertaining I'm now bored with discussion of AM love life, which per se interests me not a whit. It's obvious to everyone who is not very stupid that she's a heterosexual woman promoting her new album. If you can't see it, that's on you.
I don't care how she conducts her affairs, who she sleeps or lives with or who she finds attractive. She has been married to the same man, the father of all three of her children, for more than 16 years. She has publicly acknowledged only four other relationships. All men.

Very much worth reading. The truth is women tried. We always do. To get people to listen and to believe, to disempower these men and block their access to future victims. Ellie Mae was shouted down and abused by men on her own side for her trouble. We all know how that feels. – at Ffairfach, Wales
Very interesting thread from Ellie Mae O’Hagan on B/sky about trying to raise the alarm about Brand years ago when he started getting involved in left wing politics (worth reading the whole thing)

Sweet
I checked & was informed this is a true story about a guy out fishing way out in the water & saw an iguana swimming for its life. This video is about men who perform good acts, even when no one is watching.

Russell Brand would have an excellent chance of overturning his conviction on appeal. There is plenty of reasonable doubt and even an untrained eye can see that his conviction is unsafe. #RussellBrandtrial

Dear non-Jews, I won't apologise for the arrogance of this individual who appoints herself queen & boss of all Jews. I only ask you to seek out & listen to many Jewish voices. No group is monolithic. In fact it's antisemitic to assume anyone– esp. Tricky Nicky– speaks for us all.
Dear non Jews, I apologise for the dregs of my community who try and argue FOR Jew hate. They have internalised antisemitism and enjoy the applause it wins them when they scream, ‘I am the good Jew, not like the other Jews.’ Polanski is a charlatan who wrongly claimed his family were Holocaust survivors, and whose other untruths are famous. All I can say is sorry.
