Zoe Williams (Guardian) thinks Rishi Sunak might actually be trying to lose the election & that sort of makes sense;

The Tories have so wrecked the country that their best bet is to walk away, leave Labour the almost impossible task of clearing up the mess & then in five years time (with the collusion of a supine right wing press) claim Labour have had their chance & the Tories can now save us from the wreckage (without acknowledging its Tory policies that did it)!

Chase Oliver Is the Party's Presidential Pick https://reason.com/2024/05/26/chase-oliver-is-the-libertarian-partys-presidential-pick/ "Oliver, a 38-year-old gay man from Atlanta with socially tolerant and pro-immigration views, delivered a passionate response after Trump's speech to the convention on Sat." He won on the 7th ballot after nearly 8 hours. Oliver is considered the most leftist of the LP nominees and a rebuke to the right-wing Mises Caucus.

Caution: this has only been tested in kilogram-scale quantities so far. But it's promising enough that scaled-up tests are due within the next weeks. (TLDR: you can use recycled concrete as flux in an electric arc furnace to purify iron ore … and as a by-product get Portland cement, with no fossil carbon requirement.)

Apropos of nothing, I'm heartened by the degree to which huge swaths of communities I'm attached to (thinking / , , , , etc.) have seemingly rejected the siren call of going all-in on as a Twitter/X replacement.

I know many have been sailing under their own flag for quite some time, but we're hurdling towards two years and it feels like something that can persist.

To that end, https://esq.social if you're interested in a instance.

Trump called fallen service members "losers" and "suckers" — according to his chief of staff — he publicly accused soldiers with PTSD of not being "strong," demeaned POWs, and insulted Gold Star parents & a widow. When he pretends to honor service members today, don't believe it.

The single issue Never-Bidens should listen to what Trump says and believe him. He'll be right behind Netanyahu, rooting for more genocide. You can kiss a Palestinian state goodbye.

As well as destroying democracy in the US.

I would like to meet the person who advised Sunak that National Service would be a policy to win an election.
Quite apart from being a bad idea on many levels, I'm amazed at its stupidity as an election policy.

After a late night wine and politics session with my grandson and his partner, Sunak's seemingly crazy policy announcements suddenly make sense.
He is not trying to defeat Labour. He's trying to defeat Reform. In the light of that, National Service makes sense. Labour may trounce the Tories, but Reform could completely destroy them. Ergo, try to take the wind from Reform, everyone else has already left the room.
