Whoopsie...

complete insanity

YouTube went through a period of bizarrely suggesting multiple Hale and Pace videos to me (not sure why). After a while I gave in and watched a few. While never being a huge fan, I thought I recalled them being a mildly amusing duo. But wow they were so much less funny than I remembered.

The Krankees. What the fuck was with that?

Gotta love Bluesky...

Everything is ready for regime resilience.

Trump (and Trump supporters) remain perpetually ignorant of the size, diversity and population of the world that *isn't* the US.

Just a reminder, as some question religious influence in UK politics. There are only two major countries in the world that guarantee clergy to hold seats in parliament. The United Kingdom and Iran. The UK automatically seats 26 Bishops in the House Of Lords.

'Supreme Leader' does track with the 'everyone is 12' theory. I mean who the fuck would call themselves that? It's so stupid.

If WW3 starts and someone wants to conscript us, they might need to threaten us something a bit worse than... humiliation.

Ali Khamenei has the opportunity to do something incredibly funny right now

"Iran was planning to conduct pre-emptive strikes, which is obviously very bad and illegal. So we conducted pre-emptive strikes against them."

Yeah Trump totally definitely has thought out all the next possible steps in this war. This image just screams competence, foresight, strategy and deep analytical planning.

If a serious movie about war in the Middle East suddenly had this scene, you'd think it had suddenly switched to an Airplane-type comedy.

Jesus Christ they're running the war from Mar-a-Lago www.reuters.com/world/us/top...

I mean.

Our foolproof plan of electing a big dumb criminal has hit a bit of a snag.

'UN Security Council to meet later today' has about the same impact these days as 'Rustington Village Council to meet later today'. They may well have a strong opinion on what's happening in the world but... so what?

The world could be such a nice place if we allowed it. It's all so goddamn unnecessary. There's no need for any of it. It's so beautiful here. It should be so cool to be alive

No, but really though.

Voters: ‘We hate celery’ Labour: ‘clearly we need to offer more celery.’

Trump Administration: "This company has attempted to take a moral principled stance on something. It is a threat to our National Security! Destroy it!" (And yes I know the issues with Anthropic, but all its bad activities were apparently fine, it gets destroyed for one good thing it tries to do)

I miss the days when I could buy something or even just go into a shop, without receiving a detailed online survey about my experience.

Help is on the way. With a very loose definition of the word 'Help'.

NEWS! Man who said he wouldn't get involved in foreign wars starts foreign war over nuclear capability he claimed was totally obliterated a few months ago newsthump.com/2026/02/28/m...

They never stopped making the fake news segments for Robocop movies...

There's always a fucking tweet. Always. #ReleaseAllTheEpsteinFiles

A broader takeaway I think is nobody should be allowed to be so rich that being told no, or being held accountable, represents such a moral injury to that person's psyche that they feel like their only recourse is to burn the world down.

‘Everyone is 12’ theory of the US administration chalks up another win.

Trump: "We are going to destroy their missiles and raze their missile industry to the ground. It will be totally ... obliterated."

Fine speech there from the recipient of the FIFA Peace Medal

Is attacking Iran 9 months before the mid-term elections totally the best ideas ever...?

Can't help feeling the Democrats have at least 50 different incredibly simple and powerful messages to attack Trump with if they could just actually find the effort to DO ANYTHING! Why aren't they on every outlet fighting this latest illegal war (that supposedly Americans across the board dont want)

Waiting for “Trump AI”.

Let's just remind ourselves of what the White House said about that last set of strikes on Iran far back in... 8 months ago: www.whitehouse.gov/articles/202...

Trump: 'Our country has never been stronger, better, hotter!" RFK Jr: "Cope with your poverty by eating cheap liver."

The more I hear about inverse proportion, the less I like it.

Why are cinema websites so utterly awful and user-unfriendly?

So is Farage's theory that thousands of Muslim women were controlled by their husbands to change their vote to Green, whereas left to their own opinions they would have voted... Reform? Is that what's being implied here?

The political questions about the continuing existence of the Royal Family sounds like a @smershpod.com intro...

If that ends up being how this plays out… my goodness. China MAKING money out of Trump tariffs is quite a MAGA policy! 😅

Well I thought I was hilarious

Oh no, not Rob Grant...

I'm not against AI per se, but the ludicrous way my company is trying to use it and roll it out for every circumstance... fucking hell it's an absolute shitshow of every team wanting their own little AI, some off the shelf big names, some from third party providers, none talking to each other...

Dickfest is exactly what you think it is (but only if you think it’s an annual Dickensian festival in the Lake District).
