So do we all.

Don’t vote Reform, ever.

"Adam Mitula hasn’t disappeared quietly, he’s been put in charge as election agent for three Reform candidates in Tameside ahead of the 7 May elections. Suspended for racism and antisemitism… yet trusted to oversee campaigns." via Reform Are Not Your Friends

It is a profound irony when the nation under attack feels more empathy for the attacker's citizens than the attacking government itself.

Farage's visit to Scotland is one of the rare occasions when the most irritating living thing in the country isn't midges.

Imagine if instead of spending billions of dollars supporting terrorists or weapons, the United States had spent that money helping the people of the United States

How is the world taking the blocking of the Strait of Hormuz? "We're as mad as hell, and we're not gonna take it any more!" 😉

Just a thought on Trumps' "Jesus" AI self-portrait: He's now denying that it represents Jesus, and that he was just picturing himself "as a doctor". But how many doctors do you know who have GLOWING HANDS? He's clearly lying. And mentally ill.

France starts moving government systems from Windows to Linux France is ditching US software for homegrown alternatives of Google Docs, Microsoft Office, Zoom, and Telegram Libre Office is very good. www.techspot.com/news/112032-...

I quite happily live in a neighborhood where most people do not share my religion, where multiple languages are represented, and where people have come from a lot of different countries. Bigoted assholes always assume everyone else actually shares their bigotries.

This is an example of the BBC doing Trumps' bidding, probably because of the pressure generated by his lawsuit against them. Although I repost BBC stories, they're only ones which seem reasonably accurate. But you definitely shouldn't believe everything the BBC says. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

If you vote for Reform you get the man that lied to us about Brexit costing our country Fortune and our country poorer and you get the Tories. But not the capable ones. The disgrace ones. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🇬🇧☕️🫖

All the other presidents said no to Netanyahu. Only one was dumb enough to say yes.

Although the Iran war situation is awful, with too many deaths, too many countries attacked, and a large part of the worlds' oil supply cut off, there MAY be a chink of light. It's possible this situation has affected Americans and other countries so badly it could end Trumps' presidency.🤞

TIM DILLON: “We are getting bodied with the Lego stuff.”

Can any knowledgable person tell me why the Orion capsule thrusters were still firing even when the main chutes had deployed and it was descending slowly? Seems a bit pointless, and potentially dangerous if the thruster bursts from the top of the capsule went anywhere near the parachute lines.

If only Britain had leaders like this. I want Jacinda Ardern and Zohran Mamdani as UK PM and Deputy PM (I can't work out which way around though! 😂Maybe let voters decide!)

The question needs to be addressed by Congress. But they’re too cowardly. No Balls. No Spines. He’s a convicted felon, a fraudster and a Rapist.

The first American leader of the Catholic Church has fiercely criticized the war in Iran, deepening tensions between the United States and the Vatican.

We already knew that Farage's Reform is filled with mega chancers & grifters. It is widely known that Richard Tice has aggressively avoided tax legally due. Now we find out his company failed to pay tax legally due. So much for public services & standards. www.thetimes.com/uk/politics/...

Surely you're not forgetting Islamophobia? 🙄

The Artemis crew spacesuits are bright orange, big, and fat. Has anyone named them "Trump suits" yet? 😉😂🤣

Isn't capitalism wonderful? You can sell something to gullible consumers which includes built-in obsolescence, and then 5, 10, even 15 years later, you can find ways to squeeze more money out of them with upgrades! Avarice rulez! 🤑🤑🤑🤑🤑🤑🤑🤑🤑🤑🤑🤑

(1/2) The Americans have FAILED to get regime change in Iran. The names have changed, but the govt system remains exactly the same as it was before. The Iranian people did NOT rise up as Trump demanded. And now, in negotiations with the Iranian regime, they have FAILED to get the Strait of Hormuz...

I heard a rumour that in the future, a construction-kit company is going to market a model that will enable you to build a box of Lego bricks. 😐

Cartoon by Dave Granlund

Trump official warns Pope Leo that the US "has the military power to do whatever it wants—and that the Church had better take its side." Trump is a disgrace to human race, threat to peace. US Congress does nothing. American-born Pope Leo won't visit the US while Trump is president.

Instead of hungering for revenge on just one person, maybe you should be thinking about the abysmal state of your society, and what needs to be done to pull it out of its current terminal decline. Just my 2¢. 🤔

One flew east, one flew west, one flew over the cuckoo’s nest.

We will need to reform Congress at some point. The fact a sitting president can threaten a civilization with no rapid repercussions is proof Congress is too weak.

The groups who pressured corporate sponsors like Pepsi to pull out of the Wireless Music Festival and sunk the whole weekend should be ashamed of themselves. WHY is it a good thing to sabotage the British music industry??? Some people are just blinkered & selfish. 🤬 www.bbc.co.uk/news/videos/...

If you do not want Reform in power, even if you do not support the other parties, vote tactically in the May elections. It is the only way to stop them. There are more of us than them. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🇬🇧🫖☕️

For "Conquest", please substitute the word "Crusade".

It won’t work, but at least he’s trying…

There's a lot being shared right now about China's incredible shift towards renewable energy - and rightly so. But this, from the UK, is equally astonishing & encouraging. It's not just that change can happen. It's that it *is* happening. (Via climateactapp.substack.com/p/your-daily...)

Reminds me of some of the scenes from "Rosemary's Baby". 🤮

Poor Jeff Bezos isn't earning enough money, so now he's making a lot of you 'obsolete' so you spend more money with him to replace your perfectly usable Kindle. What a guy! www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Millions of American voters wanted to be villains. They came to believe it’s the key to success, while goodness is weak, woke, loser stuff, done only to signal. Offered the option of unvarnished villainy, they enthusiastically took it. Seeing others suffer more made them feel big. And here we are.

"A whole civilization will die tonight...". Is this what Trump meant when he told the Iranian people "Help is on the way"? Why is he continuing to murder Muslims by the thousand? Is ethnic cleansing really necessary so that his christian taliban can rule the world?

Given the insanity of his recent statements, is anyone thinking about the possibility that Trump might be trying to persuade the US military to use nuclear weapons against Iran? Would that be enough to start taking steps to remove Trump from office? Or would America still just sit back & do nothing?

If only there were like an opposing political party in the United States who would do literally anything to fight back against the President saying he's going to commit genocide. If only something like that existed. But no, instead we have @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social and @schumer.senate.gov. Great.

What he says…

Knowing what Kermit Roosevelt and the CIA did in 1953 overthrowing Iran's democracy, installing a torturer, training his secret police I don't hate the Iranian people. I understand them. If they had done that to us, there is not an American alive who wouldn't still be furious. I would be too.

In 1953 Iran had a functioning democracy. A free press. Seven political parties. Women in universities. Women granted voting rights in municipal councils in 1952. A secular prime minister named Mosaddegh who believed Iran's oil belonged to Iran. The US and Britain decided he had to go.

Jealous

No. You went wrong at "...construct an entire fantasy idea...". 99% of the time, the world doesn't care about your fantasies. It's much better to deal with reality.
