FIFA => Fawning Infantino’s Fake Awards

I'm skipping the #FIFAWorldCup next year. I love football, but the corporates and power junkies long ago hijacked the game and now with this 'award' to a rapist and warmonger they are just rubbing our noses in it. They're taking the piss so I'm taking a miss.

I have four (4!) water bowls for the cats in the house, but every day, Ash insists on drinking from my glass!

Beth Gibbons gig in Osaka tonight. A bit excellent, it was!

Oooooh! Where am I today?

How fragile are the US armed forces that two unarmed men clinging to wreckage in the ocean can be deemed a sufficient threat they need to be killed in ‘self-defence’? What were they going to do? Obliterate the US task force by breathing their last on it?

‘Come back! If you evolve into a sentient bipedal hominid we’re all screwed!’ Here’s a #cartoon I posted here a few years ago and then took down to allow certain publications their option on it. They didn’t take up the option. Ho hum. Here it is again, with a more discerning audience.

The man who declared himself winner of the Nobel Peace Prize prepares to invade a country that has done nothing to the US, with a casus belli that’s a case of bollocks.

Holy fucking hell! #Palantir is a death company. And they'll come for ALL OF US!!! youtu.be/H4J4lF1E-eI?...

Hang on, a pause is by definition temporary. Permanent is the opposite of temporary. “Permanent pause” is an oxymoron, a contradiction. If you want to be president of the US, don’t you think you should learn English, @realDonaldTrump ?

Those nice people at #Redbubble are discounting stuff again. 25-30% off my #tshirts, 15-35% off other clobber. How long will it last? psipook.redbubble.com Oh, check out ‘Just No, OK?’, my latest #tshirt to be released into the wild.

Loki is a bit impatient for his afternoon snack.

Any of you Osaka / Kansai people going to see Beth Gibbons in Osaka next week? I got *my* ticket. Pretty excited. Haven't been to a show in yonks. youtu.be/bSRSgPq1AwA?...

New post on Substack: open.substack.com/pub/psipook/... Honey, I sold the neighbour's kids to the vivisectionist!

If posting on Mastodon is 'tooting' and posting on the old Twitter was 'tweeting', what's posting o Bluesky? 'Blooping'?

Crikey, seems like #Redbubble is having another 25% sale, which includes my #tshirts ... with only four hours left to go at the time of bleeping. psipook.redbubble.com

“Don’t you think it’s time we stopped and asked for directions?” (Actually, I did this cartoon two years ago. I haven’t posted it before because I was giving certain publications the chance to buy it. They didn’t. Shame on them. But now free to my good friends!) #LostInSpace

I'm here to be creative.

The most fun I had today: I accidentally ate some cat food. That’s it. That was the highlight of the day. 1/5

Last night I dreamed I was eating one of my cats with a spoon. Apparently, this was for medical reasons; some kind of post mortem procedure while the cat was still alive. This all seemed terribly muddled and unpleasant to me as I hunkered over the half-eaten cat with my spoon — ➡️

Meanwhile, somewhere in Nara, someone has been making filling for traditional British Christmas mince pies … [sinister music]

So, Netanyahu collects the domestic political capital from bringing home the hostages. Netanyahu finds an excuse to bomb a Hamas target. Netanyahu falsely accuses Hamas of breaking the ceasefire. Netanyahu resumes the genocide. ➡️

Big shout-out thanks to the soon-to-be-well-dressed soul in the UK who has elected to accoutre themself with the [Lord Kitchener says] You are Poop #tshirt. See FictionalShirts link psipook.redbubble.com for more groovy threads and assorted stuff.

So, the Nobel committee wanted to highlight the struggle to preserve democracy by giving the peace prize to someone who is friends with people trying to dismantle democracy. Subtle.

Jørgen Watne Frydnes must really want a wee-wee.

If Trump wins the peace prize today, it will invalidate all other Nobel prizes ever in any category. Einstein’s: null and void; Ernest Hemingway’s: null and void; Marie Curie’s: null and void; Nelson Mandela’s: null and void; Martin Luther King’s: null and void. ==> (Cartoon by Pierre Ballouhey)

She was arrested for holding a sign reading: “I do not support the proscription of Palestine Action” How that would warrant arrest is very unclear. I wonder if the police here even understand the boundaries of the bizarre law they’ve been forced to enforce.

A tiny but exciting reminder that Greta Thunberg and her fellow activists have not been ‘arrested’ as the media and Israel insist. The flotilla was in international waters where Israel has no jurisdiction, nor have the activists committed any crimes in international law.

— @UKLabour is having its annual conference through Wednesday this week. If you can't make it in person, you could join in the jolly by posting "I oppose genocide — I support Palestine Action" all over their SM propaganda feeds.

Those who live by hate speech should not be entirely surprised to die as a consequence of hate speech.

I want to hear Starmer say Musk will be arrested for incitement if he sets foot in the UK. I'm not holding my breath.

When a blast from the past actually says more about the present. I drew these two In 2021, when Starmer adopted his flag-based strategy. I think the outcome at the time was pretty easy to see — to everyone but Starmer ... (1 of 3)
