I would also highlight the fact that although Taylor Swift is hugely successful across lots of demographics, she started out as a country music artist and that fanbase has not abandoned her. She always has them in mind. And guess which genre has the highest % of Trump voters?

hey I can answer this and the reason is that ‘Taylor Swift’ is a brand. Like all brands, it follows trends, and the trend that’s likely to maximise your profits in Trump’s America is Big, Stupid and Tacky

we live in the stupidest dullest greediest Scrooge McDuckest of worlds

Been annoyed by the Kate Forbes/stupid other guy thing for ages

Elle Woods (Witherspoon) has it all. She wants nothing more than to be Mrs. Warner Huntington III. But there is one thing stopping him (Davis) from proposing: she is the great wolf-headed battering ram Grond, forged in the dark smithies of Mordor, ensorcelled with wicked spells LEGALLY GROND

I'm not sure there is a more cooked brain on the planet than Joe Rogan's

I was made to watch the new Enola Holmes. It was not a good experience

America keeps trying to get me to go to her birthday party and I’m like no girl u need to go to the hospital

#Edibuddies and #translator friends 👋🏻 Do you have an AI policy/statement on your website? Like, what you expect from your clients and what your clients can expect from you when it comes to AI? I'm collecting examples for a resource I'm putting together, and I'd love some more. #AmEditing #xl8

Views like David Birkett’s are the reason I left the SNP, despite being an indy supporter for my entire adult life.

Then it will die :)

think this is great and fully support it (although 25 per cent of Scotland’s is already electrified)

Seeking a home delivery service to bring me the precise bittersweet sensation of sitting in a warm elsewhere square with a small glass of something silly, delicious & violently intoxicating, watching the setting sun tie-dye the sky yolk & lilac & ballet shoe on the last night of a holiday

Mamdani: "Those who led through exclusion & isolation have tried to win power & enrich themselves by turning us against one another ... today, too many of our leaders do not believe in a vision of this nation as an asylum for the persecuted, but rather as one that persecutes those seeking asylum"

I read this and I actually just don’t know what is wrong with men. What the fuck?

do I have to be a flying thing, or can I just be me but with wings?

It is pretty grim, but to be fair to them, she was already in power as Deputy First Minister and she’d really kept her more extreme views to herself until then. You can see why they went ‘it looks like they’re going to ask you about this stuff and if you tell the truth you won’t win.’

This is like a Hieronymus Bosch depiction of hell

Please enjoy this beautiful lady with her soft voice and tremendous style

Putting my marker down now: Kate Forbes, Scottish Conservatives defection => party leader arc

Ghaith has run out of medicine again; Khalil wants to prioritise getting $200 for medicine to help him breathe. Please share and donate if you can.

This is just dishonest. It’s a complete misrepresentation to say that the backlash was due to her ‘having a conscience’. It was explicitly because of her backward, hateful beliefs. I’m sure her conscience told her she couldn’t lie about the beliefs, but she seems to be ok with lying now!

my sister is getting a posh new kitchen and also a new puppy, so she sent me loads of pics and then went ‘and how was your day?’ and I was like ‘a big fly flew into my pasta water and when I tried to fish it out it dissolved’

done a brief guide to stuff on subvert so ... maybe you could dip in at my first ever live show -- a very embryonic and very terrified rdg ... https://mirlo.space/robert-dallas-gray/release/live-at-lanternhouse-arts

hate you, Linkedin

Hi hello I have a new radio show kicking off tonight on Noisebox Radio after Jodie Wood's The Periphery. Dear Tara, Long Time Listener is a mystery, who sent the play list in? From 9pm. noiseboxradio.com from 7pm where you can catch Alan Boon's A-Pop

Yeah eat shit you’re out of Hat Club www.npr.org/2026/07/02/n...

Nandy must be absolutely furious with the person whose department is responsible for overseeing this stuff, assuming she ever finds out who they are.

One of my RE classes was so bad that it caused the teacher to have a nervous breakdown and he had to go away for ages and then they named an award after him

Have seen at least three articles on this story now that fail to mention this applies to the NHS in England

That passage is incredibly telling, because only proper OG committed terfs do that thing where they pretend they’re doing ‘research’ but they’re actually flipping through material they have in their special trans people collection

Just a reminder that the Glasgow launch of Queerphoria is 7pm tonight at Category Is books. It's going to be excellent, it's free and you should go. www.outsavvy.com/event/36955/...

I HAVE DECIDED TO BECOME A HIMBO. IT IS THE FINAL FORM OF MAN. I STUDIED THE TEXTS. I TOLD A STRANGER HIS DOG WAS HANDSOME. HE TEARED UP. I TEARED UP. WE STOOD THERE. TWO MEN. LEAKING

This must be like the worst but best most gossipy scandalous time of your life if you’re a bored priest

The situation at Dundee sounds absolutely dire and it looks like there’s been serious financial mismanagement. But these are payments they were contractually obliged to give them?

Which members of the public supported you, Kate? When you lost the leadership contest because you said that gay people shouldn’t be able to get married?

as always one must understand that when they say "women's safety" or "children's safety," they mean "protecting cis men's property from contamination or property damage." they mean "asset safety."

Yes, as I recall the words were “island of strangers”, “one-nation experiment in open borders“, “squalid chapter” and “incalculable damage”

This is really interesting and I think in terms of personal morality my view is this: Q. Is it wrong to compel someone to do something they wouldn’t otherwise do, in order to benefit yourself? A. Yes.

We had a really mean python at work and I gave him back to his owner and was like “he was trying to kill me” and his owner said “well, he only has so many ways to interact with the world. All he has is a face” and it Moved Me

A huge reason we have a welfare state at all is because of generations of men being medically unfit for conscription due to poverty and malnourishment

There's focus and then there's the Branch Manager waiting for bacon from his favorite coffee shop

Raunchy cucumbers! Neo-romantic ruins! A life-long love hidden in paintings. July is a great month to visit Nottingham and see the exhibition I've curated there about the Two Roberts. www.nottinghamcastle.org.uk/tworoberts/

this is why I don’t go in the sea
