First phase of Operation: Historical Fig

How wars are usually settled is that one side takes such a beating that it's no longer economically or physically capable of continuing. The other side then tells it what it has to do for the beating to cease. As a traditionalist, I'm happy for Putin to eat his gun, in a bunker, prior to this.

Friday. The foreplay for the weekend.

Ten years ago today, Syrian archaeologist and head of antiquities at Palmyra, Khaled Al-Asaad was tortured for four weeks, and then murdered by ISIS, when he refused to reveal the location of ancient historical artefacts that he had helped to hide, to stop them being destroyed, by ISIS.

Just as the presser ended Russia began sending bombs to Ukraine.

Risky, but let’s try this. 1 like = 1 opinion on the First World War which might be unorthodox.

Will Trousers trouser-posting goes online July 31st, 2025. Will begins to post trousers at a geometric rate. It becomes self-evident that he will not be stopped, at 2:14 a.m. Eastern time, August 2nd. In a panic, they try to pull the plug.

“This has been brutal. For a working-class man with a direct manner, modern broadcasting has become a dangerous place. I was the headline this time. But I won’t be the last.”

I'm a cheeky greengrocer with rough edges and nothing was done to investigate my disability or protect me from what I realise was a dangerous environment, young lady.

While Ukraine is denied air defences.

5,438 drones. 230 missiles. Just in June. russia's war isn't slowing down — it's escalating dramatically. And we're now hearing "peace through strength" buzzing over our heads every single night.

It's a tragedy that the coalition of tyrannies — China, North Korea, Iran — is far more committed to helping russia destroy Ukraine than the coalition of democracies is to supporting Ukraine's survival. As if their own security didn't depend directly on it. History teaches people nothing.

Thank you, New York Post. Typing this message from a metro station — the latest russian Kinzhal attack caught me there on my way to have some Saturday time out.

Europe MUST seize frozen russian assets NOW and use that money for Ukraine and Europe's security. Now. Now. Now!

Questions.

Different worlds

🧵 1. After a brief observation with @rich-bryant.uk‬ and @yesmissmurphy.bsky.social, on the glory that is drunk shopping, I've been considering, in mild awe, just how much it's done for me. This mirror? So full of joie de vivre, at the time, I didn't know I'd bought it, 'til I got an email.

imagine being a journalist and telling people this. There were 36 hospitals in Gaza on October 6th 2023. I'm excited to learn whereabouts up Patrick's arse the other 564 came from.

For those who like their Astrology credible.

Post a meme that best sums you up.

Going book hunting with @alexchurchill.bsky.social takes a different form nowadays, because we end up hunting our own books to sign them! You’ll find some more guerrilla signed books in Windsor.

And if you don't recognise the joyless scolds on here, you are the joyless scold.

You there, service-role person. Do you want a candle?

If you see this, post the most recent picture of you from your camera roll.

Destined to spend 50,000 years, in one of the more obscure Circles of Purgatory, slicing bread. At the end of which I WILL STILL BE SHIT AT IT.

Stopped at the farm shop to buy some apples.

We all have an emotional support dead famous guy and who he is says a lot about you.

Joey Barton has always been an awful bastard. And despite some of the Fourth Estate's wish to embrace his stupid beret and fortune cookie cod philosophy quotes, insisting, like the battered girlfriend, that he can change, he always will be.
