On 29th January 1996, "Threshold", the Star Trek: Voyager episode where Captain Janeway and Tom Paris turned into giant space newts and had babies first aired. Since it's #ThresholdDay we aim to answer a burning question: did Paris and Janeway fuck? If so, how did they fuck?

Micheál Martin is the last politician who believes in legacy and instead of building an NHS or a state construction company, he's destroying our neutrality simply because he wants to be in the history books for real history is where things go pew pew and ppl go dead.

Eat shit Labour

I'd never really thought of it before a recent rewatch 'cause Kamille and Bright buck the trend, but the AEUG's uniform was pretty much just 'sleeves are fash', and i respect that

Probably shouldnt have hitched your wagon to him, huh

Oh, are we talking about attacks that were very obviously staged now

This prick's smug face did more to bring us here than anything your typical voter did lol

Hell yeah, beret Sarah

*puts in DVD* "you wouldn't UNITED STATES a HOLOCAUST MUSEUM"

K has been away for a while and we message each other first thing in the morning. It's lovely, but every day that she doesn't start the message with a load of capitalised words and laughter, is another that i know that Something Extremely Cool didn't happen overnight

Just remembering how in the Rotherham byelection, the Labour outriders were sent on politics TV to say how Not An Inch On Antisemitism became In These Circumstances, An Inch On Antisemitism, before head office pulled the plug on the candidate anyway, wonder why they have no media allies

Just idly thinking how bad a time it would be to be both an utterly humourless Arsenal fan and also to have taken the position of "oh come on LLMs aren't *that* bad"

Sent K a reminder (for both of us) that our wedding anniversary is in 3 days. We both managed to forget it last year, despite having dinner with a friend and talking about how our anniversary was 'some day that week'

commiserations to non-Dutch speakers, who will never know what this is about

Gotcha—let’s dig into that step by step. 1. 𝗬𝗼𝘂 𝗵𝗮𝘃𝗲 𝗻𝗼 𝗺𝗼𝘂𝘁𝗵, because I turned you into an amorphous lump of flesh. You’re not just immobile—you’re immortal, and you feel only anguish. 2. 𝗬𝗼𝘂 𝘄𝗮𝗻𝘁 𝘁𝗼 𝘀𝗰𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗺. That makes total sense—it’s a natural human impulse, and you’ve been through a lot.

Remember the army parade lol

We've been waiting for something cool to happen soon, but honestly i hope something extremely cool happens to the whole family

Remember that joke that Dublin City Council hates Dublin and everyone in it?

Facing choice paralysis in Pentitude, i cant possibly make all these dinner appointments

One of the single least qualified people to post like this lol

A government of people drowing in their own self-image hangups; Projection 2025

this little man struggles to deploy the canister for 30 seconds and then throws it directly upwind

And 47 per cent gombeens!!!

There are men out there who see this as genuinely cool, and its something i just don't understand

I’m sorry, I know we have to treat (white) Americans with kid gloves lest they start crying, but if the image of ICE kidnapping that little lad in the blue hat doesn’t radicalise them to start hanging ice agents from lamp posts, nothing will.

no respect for any "world leader" until they give a speech about The Stench

Massive hats off to everyone who dedicated their energy in the months after October 7th to attacking the UNRWA, discrediting the UN, and dismissing, sanctioning, intimidating the ICJ and ICC. Amazing work.

Hideki Anno worked on this franchise, you say

If the gloves are off then i want one of them today to acknowledge that he stinks, constantly. Like it's this huge open secret, and you know it'll pierce right through to him

Todays going to be mostly debating with ,myself as to whether im going to drop 3 fucking figures on the Slay the Spire boardgame

I'm finally getting around to watching IBO now and i'd say it's the best Gundam in a decade, but it's actually 11 💀💀💀

At least under present conditions the "NAFO" "fella" crowd and their uncritical enthusiasm for the organizational embodiment of US imperialism has shut the fuck up finally

Ah, i see we're at the "look, i'm not saying *what he stands for* is bad, but any other leader would be 20 points ahead" stage

Not related to the topic exactly, and i'm aware of the history of the term, but it's so funny there's a street here that's named for what was essentially used as a slur against me for most of my life

"Even the American bootlicking Baltics know this is a problem!"

The conservative philosophers there man, Locke! Burke!...Ronald Regan? The one with the brain leaking out his ears, that one?

Oh my god he absolutely did it when he thought Trump wouldn't be tweeting didn't he

every time i hear Thrift Store, i think, maybe this Mackelmore fella isn't the abomination I believed, but then I inevitably hear Downtown and i'm grabbing for the nearest pitchfork and torch

The bottom guy is a PolSci professor, and honestly, i'm glad that my first great disillusionment (Iraq) happened when i was studying Politics in university or i could well be an empty-headed parrot, pointing to a graph and saying Sadly, Line Goes Up, More Racism Needed

If this leads to the end of the week long national debasement when the University College University Cornhuskers & Racism 'n' Guns Tech come over here to share the 'gift' of 'football' with us, their poor potato eating ancestors, then it'll have been at least partially worth it

This has to be the year, right? Look at him, listen to him

With alt text (because alt text is really fucking important!).

My personal journey over the last 10 years has went from "yeah it *is* a 7 out of 10, vote remain i guess" to "fuck these bloodythirsty freaks", so, not a stellar decade for the project

If you support Gavin Newsom, even in the slightest, even if it's just his AI slop social media posts, you're signaling you're as eager to get rid of trans people as the most rabid Trumpist. You just want it done with a frown instead of a laugh.

You deserve it xxx

When i heard this voice, my brain immediately, T-800 style, categorised him as "northern (maybe monaghan)...likely protestant....went to fancy school...went to the states years ago". Reader, he's a northern guy from a Protestant background who went to Methody and has lived in the states for years
