My nieces visited me in London this week so I thought we'd go and do a bit of subvertising, installing their art on the public transport network. Safe to say most people would rather see children's art in these spaces, instead of ads for crypto, private healthcare and gambling.

Re-reading the NYT’s live summary of the press conference you get a completely different and imho false impression of what just happened. By coherently paraphrasing/reinterpreting a choice set of his remarks and plain ignoring the weirdest ones the MSM sane-washes what was otherwise a bizarre rant.

Charlie is right - people should act more like immigrants from northern Europe who came here in small boats.

I'M SORRY I HAD TO GO - A GIRL ON THE CORRIDOR CAME OUT TO ASK ME TO STOP, I TOLD HER TO GO DOWNSTAIRS BUT SHE SAID THERE WERE PEOPLE THERE TOO - WHICH SHE COULDN'T KNOW BECAUSE SHE'D BEEN UPSTAIRS ALL THE TIME SINCE I REVERSED THE CHARGES; BUT SHE KEPT BANGING ON THE GLASS AT ME

always a good time to leave substack tbh and look at this handy guide and reasons why at a very easy to remember url!!!

UK: Prince Andrew arrested. South Korea: Former President Yoon sentenced for life. Brazil: Former President Bolsonaro serving a 27-year sentence. USA: President Trump demands $10 billion payout from taxpayers.

Surely there must be tech nerds out there who can do this? I'd buy one. #fuckzuckerberg

Ghislaine Maxwell, a convicted child sex trafficker, gets gardening time, sports, therapy dogs, and spa products in prison. Migrant children in custody are sleeping on concrete floors without enough food or clean water. Our priorities are so fucked.

Tiny Niece was delighted that the Winter Olympics has "a sport for dead people". Turns out she'd made some big assumptions about Skeleton.

My brother Garry has dementia and is currently lost somewhere in the Chester area. If anyone should spot him please call the police on 999. We'd appreciate reposts. @shitchester.bsky.social

The commander in chief telling troops who they have to vote for is itself a presidency ending impeachable scandal.

no foreign foe has ever dreamed of being able to sack and pillaging this country the way Trump admin and its congressional and scotus enablers do every day.

Bluesky is the new science Twitter, new study by @whysharksmatter.bsky.social and Julia Wester concludes! "Results show that for every reported professional benefit that scientists once gained from Twitter, scientists can now gain that benefit more effectively on Bluesky than on Twitter."

Someone must be spiking the drinks of the CEOs in Silicon Valley because the level of openly hostile employee behavior is off the charts. Asking your foreign workers to stand up at an all-hands then joking that ICE has come to pick them up is nuts.

Fuck, quite frankly, Farage. Sprouting Putin's lines vertabin

However low your opinion is of those running the country, it's not low enough. Completely unserious, self-absorbed sociopaths. (Read the whole thread)

Happy birthday to Charles Darwin, patron saint of tired scientists, grumpy fieldworkers, and hating your own manuscript.

Jim Ratcliffe has issued a statement saying he's very sorry if people don’t like the fact that he’s a racist twat.

it really can't be said enough that this is a person who has dined with the president of the united states

The El Paso event was a perfect distillation of the moment because there were 50 immediate Bond Villain-type conspiracy theories doing the rounds and it turned out to be a bunch of clueless chucklefucks fooling around with dangerous toys borrowed from Drunk Uncle Pete at the Pentagon.

NEW: “CBS Evening News” producer Alicia Hastey sends a bombshell farewell note: Stories are “evaluated not just on their journalistic merit but on whether they conform to a shifting set of ideological expectations.”

Over on threads someone just use ai;dr and we all need to adopt that right quick

Weren't GOP senators demanding $500k because the DOJ researched their call records on January 6th?

“an intelligent man, and I think he’s got good intentions”. That’s the great Sir Jim on Nigel Farage. The colour of the shorts is the least of his team’s problems

I genuinely cannot believe the degree to which we are pissing away this generational breakthrough, even given the fuckmuppets who are involved www.nbcnews.com/health/healt...

Now we learn the billionaire owner of a bridge that will compete w/the new Canada-MI bridge met with Lutnick right before Trump issued his threat to shut down the new bridge. The Trump admin is a lawless mafia gangster extortion racket existing to enrich oligarchs at our expense.

Yeah because you’d do that if the answer was no

At a current time in which merely speaking Spanish in public in the US can literally get you arrested deported or killed, the site of such a joyous celebration of Spanish-speaking culture as fun, inclusive and fundamentally AMERICAN was in its own way deeply and rightly political.

Good morning. The President of the United States was in the middle of the most serious child sex trafficking ring of the last quarter century. He is referenced not a dozen times in the case files. Not 100 times. Not 1,000 times. He’s referenced 38,000 times.

Congress isn’t doing their job. The media isn’t doing their job. The Supreme Court isn’t doing their job. The military isn’t doing their job. The president surely isn’t doing his job. It’s almost as if the United States government is conspiring against their citizens on purpose. 🤔

I'm choosing some socks for you in a minute after a quick one with Nora at the Caledonian Hotel.

Human on a bike!

NBC editing out the booing of JD Vance is a disgrace. It’s an international event. Americans have the right to know what the world is saying. NBC has bowed down to Trump.

It all looks very nice but actually it is the worst spot in the British Isles. Stinks.
