The events of Sunday and Monday fully confirm what we Black Brits have always known; when we win, we are English, but when we lose, we are monkeys, who should be sent back to our respective jungles. — In the last four weeks, over the course of the recently completed European football championships, I wrote a number of articles examining white working class stupidity, its endless attachment to the myth of English exceptionalism, and the notion of the island race, which has never been conquered by external forces.

Climate Change Is The Bastard Child Of Neoliberalism.

And one who’s determined to burn down the village to feel its warmth… Our planet is barely recognizable today. If it isn’t Pakistan dealing with tsunamis threatening to wipe towns and villages off the map, then it’s Libya, grappling with the double whammy of having torrential floods in a polity…

The Difference Between Medium and Twitter? The Complete Absence of Racist Trolls

And what it means for its long term viability. Ev Williams is one of a kind. It takes a genius to establish one unicorn and it takes someone truly out of this world to create two unicorns. Well, maybe I am overstating the point a bit. While Twitter’s unicorn status…
