Det är inte bara den faktiska inkomstutvecklingen som gjort att de ekonomiska klyftorna i Sverige ökat, även skattesystemet och skattepolitiken har bidragit till utvecklingen. När skatterna har sänkts mer för dem med högre inkomster har de fått en starkare inkomstutveckling efter skatt jämfört med grupper som inte fått del av skattesänkningarna. Skattesatsen har sjunkit betydligt […]
Slow Puncture I’d use every one of them – each tiny symbol / sign –to ‘light up’ my words … and write eye-catching lines:the comma; the colon; the ellipsis; the slash;the question mark; the hyphen; the en and em dash. In stanzas 1-2, it was all there on show(Was there nothing not used? The short…
Maj and I went to see a world-famous comedian perform in Montreal a week or so back. It was fun and funny, but he made some cringeworthy errors talking to the audience that cost him some flat deliveries and lost him some laughs. I’ve seen it a lot when American performers come to Montreal and … Continue reading Notes for US Performers in Montreal
Ahead of next week’s resident doctors’ strike, Keir Starmer and Health Secretary Wes Streeting issued an extraordinary ultimatum to the doctors’ union, the BMA: call off the planned six-day walkout or lose 1,000 promised training posts. The BMA rejected the ultimatum, and the government has now scrapped plans to create the training posts. The six-day […]

It is telling that Marx once more occupies an important and positive place in Habermas’s story. Once harshly criticized in the Philosophical Discourse of Modernity, by Also a History of Philosophy Marx is promoted to being the Enlightenment figure par excellence, the thinker who singularly restored reason’s vital critical, even revolutionary, power. One saw glimpses of Habermas […]

Wherever I look, my gaze can find something horrific on which to focus. Whether it be news of atrocities committed by our fascist-leaning governments, obvious acceleration towards environmental collapse, or the Criterion Collection’s glaring omission of the Jackass series, heinous evils are all around us.
Yet, despite it all, I still believe in the unassailable goodness of humanity.
I also believe that the Easter Bunny is a real, tangible creature capable of wielding magic and producing plastic eggs filled with individually wrapped candies.
Throughout human history, righteousness inevitably triumphs over evil. Yes, sometimes the darkness becomes so strong and oppressive that we forget what the light is like. And that darkness can last for so long that people live entire lives in its grip. But eventually, the light always returns.
When the viral video cooled off, people thought the case against the 62-year-old would be dropped. Prosecutors doubled down.

In July of 2025, I flew out to Aurora, Colorado, with my wife and some friends to see if we were still the best forty-something ultimate frisbee players in the United States of America. We’d been training for months, and for decades. A gold medal from 2024 hung in my closet in Minneapolis, gave a muted clink when I reached for my khakis, but in the meantime, a whole other crop of mid-forties motherfuckers had sprung up or aged into the grand masters division. They wanted to snatch our gold.
The "lost" episodes of Doctor Who: The Daleks' Master Plan ("The Nightmare Begins" & "Devil's Planet") are now available to screen on YouTube.
I hope you’re proud of yourself, Harold. That nice Jesus boy has died, and it’s all your fault. He had prospects, that Jesus, a nice carpentry business going. And that voice! He could climb a mount and give a sermon, and you’d be rapt. Rapt, I tell you! And now, pfffft.
All because of you, Harold, you and your sin. That one sin.
Oh, you know perfectly well which one, Harold. Don’t make me spell it out for you. We’ve all seen you. You think we didn’t notice, but a sin like that, how could we not? Any sensible person would tell themself it wasn’t right. A normal person, a good person, would know in his heart that this sin they were doing was bringing on eternal damnation. Not just for you, Harold, but for all of humankind. Such a sin!
We were all going to go to H-E-L-L, Harold, because of that sin of yours. And on a weekday evening. Who sins like that on a worknight? There were children nearby.
There are only so many actual words to describe our specific emotional states. Why not come up with some of your own?

Ahmed al-Sharaa’s Downing Street visit offered him a reunion with the British intel operatives who groomed the former Al Qaeda warlord to become president of Syria. When Syria’s “interim” leader Ahmed al-Sharaa touched down in London on March 31, he was given a much warmer welcome than many once thought possible. As the longtime leader of Syria’s Al-Qaeda branch, the US had been offering a $10 million bounty for information on his location just 15 months prior. Yet here was […]
