thank you to everyone who sent this to me

Pay heed people

Absolutely mint Bristol 411 Series 4 or 5 outside the Savoy last week* * We weren't ACTUALLY at the Savoy: slumming it at the Paddington store next to it...😎

Trump has successfully summoned The Old Ones www.earth.com/news/ran-rob...

this is such a great encapsulation of what the various factions of the reactionary right want. i might add that they envision themselves as slave masters and the rest of us, in one way or another, as their slaves. betterdonkey.substack.com/p/the-vra-wa...

The future is not Chinese. We have Mr Beast and measles. What do they have

There comes a point where total inaction in the face of the indefensible ceases to be merely cowardly and embarrassing and becomes professional malpractice.

I understand where Labour MPs on the “it’s too soon, best thing is for Keir to govern well and go in 2028” train are coming from. I used to think that myself. But the core problem is Keir won’t and can’t govern well.

I keep telling everyone that with our excellent craft beer, variety of ethnic restaurants and temperate summers that never go above 40°C we are like Italy with better food and weather.

Thoughts from a Labour MP: “We have to face up to the fact every single one of them is fucking useless. Andy’s strategy has been a disaster. Angela has bottled it. Ed clearly a hiding to nothing. Wes is AWOL. God knows what Catherine West is doing. I am not quite sure how we ended up here.”

Not since 1970-74 have we had a Prime Minister who both gained and left office at a general election. Every PM since 1974 either came or left mid-term, and a few times recently, both.

Just finished a series of paintings of mass murderers. A friend wants to put them on display but I think hanging's too good for them.

life is short but sewers are long.

A Harvard study just published estimates Elon Musk's destruction of USAID has already caused 600,000 deaths 2/3 of them children. That is his legacy in this world.

This cartoon, by Dan Collins, one of my predecessors at Ohio State, was made over a decade ago.

Rest in peace to the great Alex Zanardi. Two-time Champ Car Champion, Four-time Paralympic Gold Medalist and a hero to us all.

Dammit, RIP Alex. Great racer, even better human 🫡

It did not get enough attention (amid all the other really shitty news) that DOJ had to drop the felony conspiracy charge against @katmabu.bsky.social and her 3 (originally 5) co-defendants.

One of my favourite moments on twitter was when I tweeted "Accidentally said "Many thank you" to a woman in a shop." and got hundreds of replies about various misfortunes. (it's still there if you want to look). This was one of the highlights.

🤣 this has been true for me more times than I would care to admit...😑

1973, I am not a crook 2026, I am not a pedophile 2079, I am not a cannibal this is the wrong direction!

“Oh, do you think he was referring to you?” Intentional or unintentional this was pretty savage

The assassination attempt didn't come off, but there was a presidential murder committed on 60 Minutes...

FDR: “The bombing of Pearl Harbor is a day that will live in infamy. Obviously, we need a new ballroom.”

You know, instead of debating how we should go overboard to protect the one man who's the most hated provocateur of malevolent violence in the entire nation, we could just remove him from office through the normal procedures.

It'll be a winner, at least until the arteries clog up...

Donald Trump napping in the White House gave me an idea; that is all

Yeah this is a real thing happening in the actual world. They are going to rename the Donbas "Donnyland" so an orange toddler-brain demented psychopath feels less pro-Russia. I have a history degree. Genuinely I don't know of any precedent for this much stupidity. www.nytimes.com/2026/04/21/u...

The problem with these manifestos is not just their moral and ethical bankruptcy, but also how historically ignorant and misinformed they are, from a sector developing what they themselves purport to be an epoch-changing technology of world historical significance.

It should be greater cause for pause -- and alarm -- that, at a time when we increasingly associate manifestos with mass murderers, the Silicon Valley elites can't stop writing manifestos. This one does not disappoint.

📢 We've reached *3000* documented authoritarian-like actions of Trump's second term since Jan 2025... the two most recent are classic suppression of the press & using the justice system to attack political enemies www.trumpactiontracker.info

The President of the United States posted this. That he will continue in office affirms that we are unfit to govern ourselves and our American experiment has failed. Too many of us are too stupid, cowardly and damaged to be citizens of a republic, let alone our elected representatives.

My kingdom to the first reporter with proximity to Donald Trump who stares into his hollow, soulless eyes and asks him: "What the fuck do you think the Pope's job is?" And at this point in the history of the American republic, or wht remains of it, the profanity is required.

It seems suspiciously like the person feeding positive J.D. Vance stories to the press is none other than Vance himself. by John Barron
