🚨 "Which brings us to the kind of people who Farage spends a great deal of time with: that increasingly powerful class of high-rollers, often positioned on the hard or far right, who deal and invest in crypto." ⚠️Far from a man of the people, Farage is beset on undermining our democracy.

Don’t know who to credit for this. But it is how I feel.

If you identify Reform’s use of Anne Widdecombe’s murder as a political tool, they will accuse you of incitement to violence. Desperate and dishonest.

This is extremely good advice in under two minutes. I could have used this when my freelancing fell through the floor during Covid

RIP to the incomparable Sam Neill

Netflix has taught audiences not to watch shows until they find out if they're cancelled after one season on a cliffhanger or not. Which increases the chances they're cancelled on a cliffhanger. You see the issue here.

Literally just copy-pasting Trump policies (needless to say this one is not about sincerely tackling antisemitism)

Anne Applebaum perfectly encapsulates the cravenness of Lindsey Graham as he systematically betrayed his own ideals.

The polar opposite reactions here to the deaths of Sam Neill and Lindsey Graham are such a reminder that we all have a choice whether to live our lives in a way that brings joy or misery to those around us. I think if you’re remembered fondly as Sam Neill is today, you’ve pretty much won at life.

Blessing the timeline with this.

What could have been... Sam Neil's screen test for James Bond.

If you’re ever wondering whether person (x) is reasonable or whether they’re just a hooting wingnut crackpot, then I have always found “do they have serious, very aggro beef with Amnesty International” is one of the best indicators.

All the scandals are starting to bite for Mr Farage... Can he hold on? Or will Count Binface consign him to the dustbin of history? https://www.telegraph.co.uk/politics/2026/07/12/farage-slumps-to-lowest-approval-rating-since-election/

Authorities say ICE shot and killed a person this morning in Maine. www.wmtw.com/article/signific...

Trump on Lindsey Graham: "He had one bad moment in the January 6 thing when he stood up -- 'alright, now I've had it, that's it, I can't do it anymore' -- then he called me about 40 minutes later and said, 'Did I really said that? I can't believe it.' And he took it back."

Amnesty is a globally respected human rights charity that once won a Nobel Peace Prize and campaigns against, among other things, torture, the death penalty and unfair trials, yet on exposing the GC movement’s anti-rights approach to trans people, suddenly they’re making it up and not to be trusted.

Among other things Sam Neill gave the funniest interviews

Democrats feel more comfortable defending a genocidal war criminal who they see as a friend than trans kids who experience harassment, bullying, and trauma routinely as a side effect of their existence under a fascist regime.

Okay, at this point I'm starting to think there's some teleporting vigilante just working their way through a list.

I'd really like to ensure that elected Democrats say something nice about me when I die, so I'd better start killing people and starting wars, I guess. No time to waste.

There are ~4.5 liters in a gallon. So, Russian occupiers in Crimea are now paying ~$26.41 per gallon for gas. In a region where the average monthly salary is estimated to be $420. lol.

speak truth to power

Senator Palpatine and I often disagreed, but behind closed doors, he was an electrifying presence who could make you feel like he was staring into your soul. I will miss his dark sense of humor and his willingness to work with those who disagreed with him. His memory will be a blessing.

What I'll remember most about Senator Graham is how he sent my friends to die in an unnecessary war in Iraq

Just living out the Nathan Pyle cartoon.

And honestly I think this is where the undeserved millennial reputation for being unforgiving comes from. We're not cruel, we're frustrated that we've watched people behave horrifically with impunity our whole lives and suffer no or barely any consequences. We crave accountability.

The only thing I'll remember about Lindsey Graham is his mistreatment of Dr Christine Blasey Ford. Acting apoplectic at nonsensical details because he knew the most powerful misogynist in the world was watching him. I've never seen a man debase and humiliate himself so much.

This is a really good explainer about the mortality estimates around USAID. One big point is that dismantling USAID also dismantled one of the main sources of mortality data in some of these regions. Early indicators of mortality are very worrying.

annoying that he is who he is because out of context he really does look like an old benevolent tortoise turned into a real boy

i know you’re looking for it. here she is, girls. here she is, world

The GOP has confirmed Senators Lindsey Graham and Mitch McConnell will continue their legislative duties as digital versions of themselves. paletteswap.site/different-co...

Any Dem praising Graham and his funny jokes today should be primaried and forgotten

‘guy who died while we were waiting to hear if another guy died’ while we’re actually waiting for another another guy to die

How about when he threw an angry tantrum in defense of a SCOTUS nominee credibly accused of rape? Did you all have a good collegial chuckle over that?

i will say lindsey graham being asked by a reporter how mitch mcconnell is doing, answering “i don’t know, i’m going to check right now” and then dying is hilarious

Lindsey Graham died of “a brief and sudden illness” you say

Lindsey Graham got the diarrhea and died. "There was nothing left when he was done," said an aide. "Now we have to try to put the diarrhea back in so we can bury something three dimensional," he added. RFK Jr. is going to give kids in school diarrhea to honor Lindsey Graham and make them stronger.

Just read Amy Klobuchar's tweet. She is running for Minnesota Governor to replace Walz. 🤢https://bsky.app/profile/teandoranges.bsky.social/post/3mqhkd7bgx22m

i stand corrected

Here's another important development by #Ukraine in their campaign to isolate #Crimea and make its occupation untenable. If they can reclaim the territory, it will be interesting to see if Ukraine can hold it and how it may change the strategic situation in that part of the Black Sea.

If you're appalled that we celebrate the deaths of people who make it a very lucrative life's work to deliberately harm others for the sake of profit and corruption, then you have failed to understand the moment. We have no recourse to their oppression but their deaths, so we cheer when they die.

Well said by @normornstein.bsky.social; why can't Democratic Senators speak normally and honestly like this? bluevirginia.us/2026/07/sund...
