why aren't other countries helping us with the strait of hormuz after we started an unjust war, cut off trade, and insulted them for a year?

Credit where it's due, the UK Government's got something right! All the abuse from the tangerine nightmare is ridiculously enjoyable.

Occam's Razor is just a flash way of saying go with the simplest explanation. It doesn't give you the intellectual superiority you think it does.

Are we 100% sure he hasn't got 6 fingers?

A sure sign that @bylinetimes.bsky.social are doing things very right. I'm hoping for an 'As Attacked By Reform' badge with the upcoming issue to celebrate this achievement.

Easy to imagine the crooked administration panicking a touch, and "putting things right"

Embrace your belly. Think of it as a camel's hump, if that helps. It doesn't stop you from being muscular if you so desire. Contrary to what you may have been told, it doesn't stop you from being physically* fit. [*yes, I know the waist size correlation, but metrics aren't everything]

You’ve got to remember for the journos who write these reams of bollocks about the ‘special relationship’ between the UK and US, their concern is not the interests of either country, or really the fate of Starmer or Trump, but ‘will the boss not sack me. Please give me a bonus’

It's worth remembering there's still some sanity, and really funny people in the States

Thus far it's still somehow a less chaotic leadership rollout than Your Party.

Speaking of unstable countries with nuclear weapons...care to show your proof of sanity credentials Israel or America? Not that today's news has anything to do with that. Warring their way out of the Epstein noose. Not sure that's going to work forever.

youtube.com/watch?v=3cf_... Trae's chats should be prescribed to everyone as a sanity maintaining measure

Tell that to the families in Gaza — who spent another Eid under a genocide you still refuse to acknowledge. Bombed with weapons your government still sells to Israel. Starved under siege by a regime that you still won’t sanction.

I bloody love this! Found myself relating to most of it, which is a touch alarming, and not to be celebrated.

Michael Portillo's still on the trains. Is this a quirky hostage situation? Wear an eye-damaging purple blazer and nuclear orange slacks combo if you need help.

Come back to me in 3 years or so, we'll see where the recent security leak features in the top 10 monumental fuck-ups by this administration. If it does feature, I'll give you the money myself.

Britons cutting back on spending. Not surprising. Real average wage unchanged since 2008, two child benefit cap, winter fuel payment cut, frozen tax thresholds, unchecked corporate profiteering. 1% has more wealth than 70% of the population combined. Must redistribute. End austerity.

I'm appreciating the 'Don't buy a T*SLA' sentiment, it's quite an exclusive boycott though, for the few. Thing is, his cult probably loved the Nazi salutes, that's a bigger worry for me than how many units he doesn't shift.

Is it 'Be the Worst Bond Villain Day'? FFS political entities around the World, get your benefactors to grab you a snack, shake off your hangryness and spite.

The new Conservative Party emblem's just dropped. Accurate and honest, a radical change of direction.

Is it just me, or does history only pick the shittest times when it repeats itself? Hey, Power, Money, Greed, got any views on that? Got a feeling it's not what Shirley Bassey, or the Propellerheads had in mind.

Unsurprised by Donald Trump's overt support for Russia, Piotr R Frankowski recounts four past examples of the US propping up, and profiting from, Russian regimes

Just started reading a Hunter S Thompson book, this page rang a lot of very noisy, doom-sized bells @bylinetimes.bsky.social

Get on the full version, the man only puts out gold material. One of the most reliable UK news sources.

Just dug out my passport for ID, it's now 7 years in without being used as a travel document. That's depressing, thanks various costs, Governments & pandemics 🫡

All of those new Manchester United stadium illustrations are ridiculous. No Greggs in sight.

Satirical illustrators unite! We need you more than ever. @martinrowson.bsky.social @anntelnaes.bsky.social

It just dawned on me that tuning in to the right funny people will give you more accurate news than news outlets. @bylinetimes.bsky.social excepted, you're stuck on my trusted pile. 🍻 Alexei Sayle @thetraecrowder.bsky.social @jonathanpienews.bsky.social @godpod.bsky.social @normalisland.co.uk ...

The zone's so flooded it's become a new Gulf. Call this one what you want Team Trump. The Sewer maybe?

I love these genAI jockeys who speak of democratising art. 'Art' isn't this cabal with hidden techniques. Everything you need to know is in the open. Heck, composition alone is quite the multiplier for even modest talent, and you can learn it. No, what needs democratisation is basic income.

Sorry Cosa Nostra, all these mafia comparisons are disrespectful. You're better than that. Today's scenes have more of a straight to Dave mafia flick vibe. #TrumpZelensky

Word of the day is ‘huff-snuff’ (16th century): a hectoring bully or braggart.

Nothing screams respect like cutting someone off and hollering "YOU'RE BEING DISRESPECTFUL!" in their face in a televised chat JD Vance would have been the kid yelling shut up, whilst the bully beats you for your lunch money #TrumpZelensky

Why can't Bezos & Musk create their own fucked up opinion outlets (like Zuckerberg did), instead of fucking up existing ones that started out less fucked up? FFS! and RIP #GeneHackman

open.substack.com/pub/bylinesu... Trump aka Krasnov is a Russian recruit. The wild part is that I'm not even slightly shocked

1 Unnamed, deceased Palestinian + 1 Named, deceased Israeli = 2 deceased humans. We know Israel can't compute this very basic equation, but UK news you need to do better.

Listen to The Pepsi Challenge on your streaming service tidal.com/album/414995... TOOL live set, always got room for some more of that

"Nazis Clash with Residents." Fixed it for ya, ABC.

@conormcnamaraie.bsky.social thoroughly enjoyed your "the first 50 days of January are okay, it's the 2nd 50 that grind you down" line with Patrick this morn. Banking that 🫱🏻‍🫲🏼

Bringing you tomorrow's posts today... "Why do they let her get away with such unimpartial nonsense!? Mad face" because #Kuenssberg #BBCLaura is an exemplar employee, fulfilling the corporation's overall bias and misdirection objectives perfectly.

Wish he wasn't 100% on the money
