UK bases being used for US strikes on these Iranian missile sites is another worrying escalation.
The US and Israel started this war and have killed countless civilians. The UK is actively supporting.
MPs must be given a vote on our involvement.

Breaking: Britain has given the US the green light to use RAF Fairford and Diego Garcia to carry out raids on Iranian missile sites that are attacking ships in the Strait of Hormuz It's the same legal basis as before - collective self-defence - but the targets are new. They are being described once again as 'US defensive operations' rather than offensive strikes “Ministers condemned Iran’s expansion of its targets to include international shipping. They agreed that Iran’s reckless strikes, including on Red Ensign vessels and those of our close allies and Gulf partners, risked pushing the region further into crisis and worsening the economic impact being felt in the UK and around the world. “They confirmed that the agreement for the US to use UK bases in the collective self-defence of the region includes US defensive operations to degrade the missile sites and capabilities being used to attack ships in the Strait of Hormuz. “They reaffirmed that the principles behind the UK’s approach to the conflict remain the same: the UK remains committed to defending our people, our interests and our allies, acting in accordance with international law and not getting drawn into the wider conflict. “Ministers underlined the need for urgent de-escalation and a swift resolution to the war.”

Iran is that quiet guy in class that just minds their own business...until bullied, then you realise that they have a black belt in Karate.

How much longer will the Israelis keep up with this charade?
This picture was taken in 2023.
At least they're moving away from lousy AI vids.

Reform say free at the point of use.
That's the same phrase that Labour use all the time.
What's really going on with Reform, Labour and our NHS?

No decent human being finds comfort in this. What a horrifyingly repulsive individual.

Vance says Americans should find comfort in the fact that our allies are "suffering more than we are" from high gas prices

Brazil’s President Lula slams Trump:
“We can’t have someone thinking he’s the owner of the world and wakes up in the morning:
I'll take Greenland
I'll take the Panama Canal
I'll take Cuba
I'll take Venezuela
I’ll bomb Iran
Countries have sovereignty. And it must be respected.”

Israeli 🇮🇱 ‘army’ fire tear gas at Palestinians 🇵🇸 gathering for Eid prayers by the Al-Aqsa Mosque
Nothing to do with ‘security’
Everything to do with a racist, apartheid 🇮🇱 regime.

This is a better view of Trump patting the butt of a female Secret Service agent and getting extremely close to her which is normally defined as sexual harassment! This needs to be investigated immediately by the Oversight Committee! What has happened that we didn’t see! 🤬

In his own constituency where we have had to endure Starmer for 11 years we know u don’t have to guess when he’s lying because he is every time his lips move
Furkan Gözükara@FurkanGozukara
UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer caught lying to the public. He claims Britain isn't involved in the war on Iran, while US soldiers are literally loading 2,000lb bombs onto B-52s at RAF Fairford to drop on the Middle East.

The Green MPs and Peers have written to Keir Starmer to urge for an end to the UK's involvement in the US and Israel's illegal war.
Under international law, the UK is obliged to have no involvement in illegal military action, including the use of UK bases and UK-made weapons.

Can someone - like a UK Government Minister - explain THIS?
How is it that the West insists on passage through the Strait of Hormuz while AT THE SAME TIME it is stopping ships & blockading Cuba in an attempt to STARVE the Cubans?
MAYBE @BBCNews could ask this, FFS?!?

Your brain at 2 AM writing a paper you started at 10 PM is operating in a neurochemical state that most productivity systems spend thousands of dollars trying to replicate.
Sleep deprivation suppresses your prefrontal cortex. That's the region responsible for self-criticism, second-guessing, and the voice that says "this paragraph isn't good enough." At 2 AM, that voice goes quiet. Not because you've achieved some zen state. Because the hardware running it is shutting down for the night and you won't let it.
Meanwhile the deadline is dumping norepinephrine and cortisol into your system, which narrows your attention to a single point. Your brain physically cannot multitask in that state. No checking your phone. No opening a new tab. The stress response has commandeered every available resource and pointed it at the Google Doc.
Lowered inhibition plus chemically forced single-task focus. That combination is almost identical to what Csikszentmihalyi documented across 30 years of flow state research. Clear goal, immediate feedback, challenge matched to skill. A 12-page paper due in 8 hours hits all three criteria by accident.
The lo-fi beats matter more than people think. Repetitive audio at 60-70 BPM synchronizes with resting heart rate and suppresses novelty-seeking circuits. You stop hearing it within minutes. It becomes an auditory wall that blocks interruption without costing you any cognitive load. It's the cheapest sensory deprivation chamber ever built.
And the black coffee at midnight is pharmacologically different from your morning cup. Your adenosine levels have been building all day, so the caffeine is fighting a much stronger sleep signal. The subjective experience of "wired but calm" at 1 AM is a different drug interaction than alert-at-9-AM. Same molecule, completely different neurochemical environment.
Every semester, twice a semester, four years straight. That's 40 sessions of accidental deep work before anyone had a name for it.
The grade was an A- because the conditions were perfect. Not despite the chaos. Because of it.
Sophia ❣️@KeruboSk
Millennials are the elite generation because they cranked out 12-page essays the night before they were due. No ChatGPT. No Claude. Just lo-fi beats playing in the background, Black coffee at midnight, footnotes that were somehow correct, and pure delusion. Grade was an A minus. Period.
