I left Labour and co-founded Your Party because politics as usual is failing us. The challenges we face are immense: the far-right on the rise, climate breakdown, collapsing living standards, public services gutted to the bone, a housing system rigged against us, and a government enabling genocide in Palestine. Tinkering at the edges won’t cut […]

October 10th, 2025: Butter tarts! At a time Donald Trump, Big Tech and Wall Street deploy stablecoins to privatise the dollar, usurping the decentralising power of blockchain to enrich themselves at everyone else’s expense, here is an alternative use of blockchain that harnesses its decentralising powers to benefit everyone equally – to pay everyone a substantial, non-inflationary, basic dividend – […] The post A Trust Fund for Everyone: How to create a Monetary Commons that socialises money and funds a basic dividend without new taxes or debt appeared first on Yanis Varoufakis.

~by Sean Paul Kelley I’m going to relay a conversation I had on X today with everyone here. It’s just easier this way, as I dislocated my shoulder yesterday and sprained my wrist falling down the stairs. Let me add, that crap that movie star tough guys do when they have a dislocated should is […]
Behind closed doors, the noted ‘humanitarian interventionist’ successfully lobbied for Israel’s inclusion on important UN committees even after the Human Rights Council accused it of targeting civilians in Gaza. The leaked emails also reveal that Israel furnished Power with a dodgy dossier on Syrian chemical weapons as she pushed regime change in Damascus. Former US ambassador to the United Nations Samantha Power secretly coordinated with a top Israeli diplomat to secure Israel’s access to multiple prestigious UN committees, leaked files […] The post Samantha Power secretly colluded with Israel to enhance UN role, leaked emails show first appeared on The Grayzone.

Vulture capitalists want to profit off your health care, from the moment you’re born until the moment you die.
On the eve of another midnight execution, questions are mounting over recent lethal injections that witnesses fear were botched. The post Indiana Killed Their Partners Under Cover Of Darkness. They Want Answers. appeared first on The Intercept. I’m a proud mother of five who is obsessed with keeping her monkeys healthy. Some people think it’s crazy how much time I spend making sure everything in their environment is safe, nutritious, and natural. Those same people probably think I’m a bad mom for letting my little monkeys jump on the bed just because they keep falling off and hitting their heads every time. But this is a choice we have made as a family, and I will not let a bunch of judgmental strangers or any of the many doctors I have called shame me into changing my mind. I’ll admit, when my first monkey fell off the bed and bumped her head, I was concerned. I immediately called the doctor, and the doctor said—and this is a direct quote—“No more monkeys jumping on the bed.” I couldn’t believe it. “But this is our choice,” I told him. “And by the way, monkeys have been jumping on the bed for millennia. Even before there were beds. In the Paleolithic era, they would jump on rock slabs jutting out from the walls of their caves.” “That sounds really dangerous,” he replied. Furious, I hung up. “One can only imagine what the chemical companies hold over our policy makers to compel them to make this tragic decision,” Moms Across America said.

In the economics of information, Hayek’s ‘The Use of Knowledge in Society’ (American Economic Review, 1945) and Grossman & Stiglitz’s ‘On the Impossibility of Informationally Efficient Markets’ (American Economic Review, 1980) are two classics. However, while Hayek’s article is often cited by economists influenced by the Neo-Austrian school, mainstream economists rarely have anything to say […]
Jacket? Check. Wallet? Check. Keys? Well, obviously, you’re driving, you big gavone. Okay, Danny, this is gonna be your night. They’re gonna be shocked to see you. The guy every girl wanted and every guy wanted to be. The capital-C Cool Cat who flew into the clouds in a 1948 Ford Convertible and then inexplicably vanished, disappearing for three decades. Man, heads are gonna snap when you walk in. Can hear those dorks now: “Whoa. Dan Zuko? That’s impossible…” They’re gonna be shocked to see how cool I still am, like “Holy shit. Nobody’s seen you in thirty years! Are you okay?” Ha. Thirty years. That’s still so weird to say. I’m getting chills, and they’re multiplying just thinking about those jaws hitting the floor when they see I look exactly the same, going, “Like for real, man, this is freaking me out, what the hell is going on with you?”
