Though her family sometimes received food stamps and occasionally had their utilities cut off, Marcie Alvis Walker’s parents led her to believe that they were an average middle-class Black family. They encouraged her to pursue her dreams and told her that if she worked hard enough, she’d achieve them. The small catch was that Walker’s dream was an elusive one for any cash-strapped and undereducated Black woman: being a New York Times–bestselling author. Now, as a published non-bestselling author, she wishes she’d had a backup plan.
The figures do not bode well for Rishi Sunak's party
There is nothing inherent or natural about the way we experience the built environment. Those structures of feeling, thought, and action, of association and signification, which shape our perception of urban space, much like the buildings and infrastructure that make up a city, are determined by culture and politics. This insight is blindingly obvious, but […]

At the DNC:
“Israel always has the right to defend itself, and as president I will ensure that it has the means to defend itself against the horrors of attacks like October 7th which included unspeakable sexual violence.”
Lying and clear support of a genocide.
Harris is better domestically, but she’s toed the line on Israel.
Oh, and AOC has clearly chosen ambition over principle. She’s refused to call Gaza a genocide, and she was allowed to speak at the DNC. It was explained to her, forcibly, I expect, the limits of how far having principles would get her and she’s made her choice and been rewarded for it.
Whether the development has an impact on the conflict or not - it seems to represent a diametric shift in the Kremlin's involvement in Sudan
Over 50 years ago, the UK and US governments conspired in secret for the UK to hold onto Chagos and expel its entire population
Keir Starmer was applauded for appointing a prisons minister who believes only a 'third of inmates should actually be in jail'. Where was this mantra when the PM declared rioters should feel 'the full force of the law'?
The livestock industry is furiously lobbying to shut down alternatives, and tame politicians are giving it what it wants. By George Monbiot, published in the Guardian 22nd August 2024 For many years, certain car manufacturers sought to obstruct the transition to electric vehicles.

From Meidas Touch: Trump will be hosting a “J6 Awards Gala” at Trump Nation Golf Club Bedminster on September 5th. Attendees have a chance to win a plaque commemorating the fact that MAGA folks bought a bunch of copies of his J6 “song” called Justice for All earning him a fleeting spot on the Billboard music chart. A flyer for the “J6 Awards Gala” shows Trump has been invited to speak and also shows indicted co-defendant Rudy Giuliani will be there. Trump is not only hosting the event at his property, but there is a good chance he will be speaking at it too. A promotional video for the event shows Trump calling J6 rioters, “peaceful,” and “J6 hostages,” promising pardons, and calling for them to be released. The video has audio of Trump claiming, “There has never been a group of people treated so harshly or unfairly.” It’s possible Trump won’t speak at this event. It’s a fundraiser and he may not have to be there. But it’s at Bedminster and it has his imprimatur. Remember:

As one wag quipped: We interrupt our coverage of the flawless Democratic National Convention to bring you the news that – shocker – JD Vance & his team remain *terrible* at this 1) he does not know how many donuts to order without help 2) his team picked and sent him into a place where the staff literally wants nothing to do with being on camera this is an awkward an off-the-record stop as you’ll ever see. You can sense his anger at that clerk for not wanting to be filmed and not knowing who he was. He’s an ass. Lol. Update:
