“The president should be removed from office because he is plainly insane.” I mean, there is no war in Portland. There just isn’t. You can’t & won’t avoid reporting this story. But you’ll still find a way to try to report it in a way that gives him the benefit of the doubt. And that’s wrong.

Watching American football and the US based ads are so bad. Not knowing what a vacation is, is not funny. Working on Sunday, is not funny. Abusing workers shouldn't be a punchline.

This is really good, @sarahkendzior.bsky.social doesn't hold back (as usual).

DISNEY: "OK, we are putting Jimmy Kimmel back on the air. You can resubscribe now." ME: "I unsubscribed because you immorally bowed to fascism. I'm not going to resubscribe because you immorally bowed to finances."

Those players & coaches should've been wearing high-vis bulletproof vests!

They just tear-gassed us. They tried to run us over in a van holding a peaceful protester. They shot us with pepper balls. They dragged another protester into the facility.

Love these little old #Renault quattrelles (4L). Super simple and city-sized, there should be an inexpensive kit to convert them to a legal EV.

Consider the positives: eliminating "America" might focus minds, resulting in a majority unification and focus on what's important, that does not involve "America". Move on, move out, move up.

I think some may have thought I was extreme for saying the USA was doomed, several years ago. #IToldYouSo

Report: You To Be Fired For Reading This Headline About Charlie Kirk

This time of year, "Mantis religiosa" is very active in the south of France. I love them & will stop & take a pic; to show my appreciation I often wear a t-shirt with the (totally fictional) giant space mantis Zorak Robert Jones of Space Ghost. Yes, it is ridiculous. #mantis #faugeres #wildlife

Chain-smoking neighbors finally left their holiday home, so now we can open the window - fantastic, fresh air!

"The man who shot Charlie Kirk was a conservative white man from Utah. But the fact that we assumed it was a transgender Mexican demonstrates how out of control Leftist rhetoric has gotten." Tomorrow in the Washington Post

There is literally no Western politician alive that I can think of that has incited more hate, bigotry, and violence than Donald Trump. That so many in our public life, in our 'liberal' media, have just memory-holed 10 years of nonstop incitement and abuse from him is shameful.

Laura Loomer, Trumps alleged mistress, a MAGA & pro-israel influencer, targeted Charlie Kirk weeks before his assassination. Loomer painted Kirk as a traitor and placed a target on his back after he called for the release of the Epstein files and opposed a war with Iran.

From me, a list of Trump supporters who killed, or tried to kill, Democrats and opponents of Trump in recent years (since the right are now claiming all the political violence is from the left!) Receipts: zeteo.com/p/charlie-ki...

We simply cannot live in a country where the death of hate mongers is a tragedy and the death of everyone else only warrants a shrug.

Security cameras are great, except there's also "hey look people are stealing your stuff and there's nothing you can do about it but watch".

Why does Twitter still exist? Seriously. How can anyone use that platform and maintain any credibility whatsoever?

Say hello to the European Spider of the Year 2010, Araneus diadematus (Cross Orb-weaver)! This was a great choice of location to construct your web. Here's to catching many flies today.

“Stop or I’ll say stop again” is proving to be about as effective a strategy for containing bigoted fascism as one would expect

Today Nick Ferrari asked if treaties like the ECHR & the Refugee Convention that were drawn up in the wake of WWII are still relevant to modern Britain. I said the context of racial hatred towards Muslim immigrants now echoes the hatred of Jewish immigrants in the 20th century. We need these laws.

"Underwrite carbon credits" - sure, let's contract our way out of the climate emergency. I'm sure global temps will adhere to legal rulings.

Sarcophaga bercaea, or "flesh fly". Shoo! Where are those spiders I never kill and keep around the house just for this???

When Donald Trump dies, does the situation in the US get better or worse? Is it a 50/50 either way?

Coding interviews from people who left government earlier this year, and this is a fantastic quote in response to a question about what DOGE tech folk don't understand.

They did that “person collided with car and died” thing, but in the ocean. No, the whale didn’t collide with a boat. A person driving a boat hit a whale and killed it.

Your future doctor is using ChatGPT to pass med school so you better start eating healthy.

I would love to see him nominated, just so the world can make fun of him to his face. He won't be able to escape it, he'd be livid. Priceless.

"I think he's a stupid man." I love that level of honesty.

Somebody went swimming yesterday. #hangover #dogslife #dogs

Yes you did, I remember this one from before he was even nominated!

www.youtube.com/watch?v=OOMh... Did a little offroad mtb action, like I haven't done since I lived in CO. Renting a bike and handing it back is the way to go! #cycling #mtb #offroad

Went mountain biking like I haven't done in literally decades, at "Glencullen Adventure Park" gap.ie . Incredible fun, I highly recommend it. Makes me feel old, I could never do jumps and crazy shit, but I can still do some technical off-road riding. #GlencullenAdventurePark #cycling #mtb

Just imagine if 50-150 Israelis were being murdered every day. Would the Media ignore it? Would they say they had died without attributing any blame to anyone? Would our leaders ignore a concentration camp for Israelis? No they wouldn't.

This is what social media should have always been

Karl Marx said that Capitalism inevitably leads to Fascism, and in the last 200 years he has only been proven right about 20 times.

My dog has the best life. A personal trailer (via e-bike) to the beach and home, chase a squirrel, sniff everything. Come home for dinner and snacks. The best part: I get to share it with her. #dublin #dogslife #dogs

Why in the hell would you want to be a part of a ZOOM meeting while you're on a flight? Can't people NOT be working 24/7? Nobody is that important (except in their own minds).

How would I tackle welfare reform? I would abolish it. Dismantle the entire system and pay UBI The only means testing would be an assessment for disability to receive the enhanced rate with no reassessment for permanent disability.

What would you do if you were in the US, arrested (by ICE), then released? Would you leave? Hide? Something else? My mother was a CA citizen. Hungarian refugee, born in '36. Married a US veteran. Lived in the US >50yrs. Died aged 81. She'd have been... deported? WTAF "America"?

After a light rain on a humid day in #Dublin, the great #snail migration begins! (Cornu aspersum) #wildlife

Leavitt without a trace of irony: "When you have a totalitarian regime, you have to save face. I think any common sense, open-minded person knows the truth about the precision strikes on Saturday night. They were wildly successful."

For me, AKA "Tuesday".

How is it a “major anomaly” when it happens like every time?
