Dear Nadhim Zahawi MP, The job of an MP is to serve and represent the public who elected them. When you encounter an ill-favoured exhausted-looking fellow, I understand it can be scary, but you should have asked them if they needed assistance... because you know, it's your FUCKING JOB

This whole "biological reality" shit Reform are coming out with reminds me of the shit a podcaster with a tiny face and a giant head used to come out with. I wonder whatever happened to that guy

What's so amazing about Jim Henson as a puppeteer is that he could literally be explaining that Kermit is made out of felt and ping pong balls and yet Kermit still feels alive the whole time he's doing it

Call it extreme if you like, but I propose we hit them hard and hit them fast with a major; and I mean major; blogging campaign.

Interesting to hear the boss of Tesco talking about how "we are spending an ever increasing proportion of our national income on our out-of-work benefits". Any journalists fancy asking him "How many of your employees have to receive top-up benefits because you don't pay them enough to live on?"?

I like how the Lord of the Rings ends with everyone just fucking off and sailing away to a place where this bullshit doesn’t happen

Dear Keir Starmer, Please consider this post my application for position of chief of staff. I'm your biggest fan, plus I have an uncanny ability to make people instinctively choose the action directly opposite to the one I suggest, even when I know exactly what I'm talking about Best wishes Ed xox

So much of the ADHD discourse in the UK right now is people who have no experience, empathy or appreciation for the possibility that other people's lived experiences look nothing like theirs, lining up, and literally begging to be punched in the throat

Christopher "blocked a bill that would ban upskirting, blocked a bill that would increase powers of courts to prevent FGM" Chope taking a moral stand against Mandelson, aye away and chase yersel, ya hatchet-faced auld cunt. Someone have a look at his hard drives

Looking forward to seeing the cognitive dissonance of certain British "patriots" trying to reconcile Israel bulldozing burial sites containing British war dead

Not going to endorse that! But I’ll do everything I can do prevent them establishing a foothold in London.

It is every British person's civic duty to set fire to every Waymo they encounter

The most tedious people on the planet are currently complaining about the inability to play as a man on an excellent game about a woman rock climbing up a mountain. I'd be surprised if any of those chuds have ever seen the inside of a bouldering centre

People in the UK must to be given the best opportunity to use tulips or risk being left behind, which is why we (and our friends in the Dutch East India Company) are rolling out a free tulip training course, to help people integrate tulips into their working lives and unlock their earning potential.

They've absolutely stitched up politics by orienting the axis so that one side of it shares a word with a synonym for "correct" (something they very rarely are) and the other side is "sinister" in Latin. Words shape thought. WE'RE ONTO YOU, BIG POLITICAL AXIS LOBBY. WE'RE COMING FOR YOU.

Liz Truss waiting patiently by her phone for Reform to ring, not realising it's actually a penguin biscuit

The people who spent years defending and even lionizing Kyle Rittenhouse and Ashli Babbitt now want us to believe that an unarmed mother in her car and a disarmed nurse were domestic terrorists who deserved to be murdered by law enforcement.

Call it extreme if you like, but I propose we hit them hard and hit them fast with a major; and I mean major; leaflet campaign.

I see Dawlish fell into the sea again, @williamnb.bsky.social

7 alarmist articles about ADHD in the guardian at weird o'clock over the past 10 days. They're doing to ADHDers what they already did to trans people. It has much of the stench of Wes Streeting about it.

Trump: "We spend tremendous amounts of money with Nato, and I know we’ll come to their rescue but I really do question whether or not they’ll come to ours" Only one country has ever invoked NATO Article 5, it was the day after you said that you now had the tallest building in lower Manhattan

Will someone please rid me of this turbulent property developer/reality TV show host/mafia boss

Christ. Things have gotten so bad that I'm agreeing with Gordon Brown

With every photo I see of him, Peter Thiel looks more and more like a Deus Ex villain, right down to the poly count

I am sorry 'The Last Supper' fans, 22 hours from now, I will take 'The Last Supper' down. I cannot take this anymore.

Using a chin-up bar as a makeshift walking stick/zimmer frame, tottering around, bent over double, it is literally impossible not to say "found him you have, mmh"

😒

Photo by Pierre Lavie. Yes this is me. And I threw my Leica. It landed on the bass plate with hardly a scratch. Another Photographer grabbed it along with my phone and I was able to track him later. I was held face down tear gas deployed right in front of me and pepper sprayed directly into the eye.

I'm coming to the conclusion that Sturgeon's law was off by at least two orders of magnitude, and that in fact 99.9% of everything is trash, not 90%. It gets much worse when you limit it to online only.

Apparently it's against The Guardian's community guidelines to point out that "Unite the right" was the slogan of a white supremacist rally in 2017, many of whom are now ICE agents running amok, and that Robert Jenrick is an utter prannock for using this phrasing.

Has anyone come up with the idea of a non-fungible peace prize yet?

Something's brewing with NHS ADHD services. My feeling is that Wes Streeting can't quite gage the public mood, so cynically exploiting it is on hold. But consent it actively being manufactured for limiting access, so if you've been considering it, I'd advise you to get yourself in the system ASAP.

Truly, Nigel Farage is an intellectual titan Bear in mind that Starmer's motley crew of rakestanders only got in because almost everyone was voting to get the Tories out. Diluting the Reform brand with dismal failures with name recognition who you have repeatedly slagged off Nice work, dumbfuck

No! The criticism of the Dems isn't that they never win elections, it's that they don't use power to solve the problems that got us here. Elite impunity, concentration of wealth, the unitary executive. Winning is only step 1

"Good news!" says Starmer. "I have been assured that X: The CSAM Generator App has changed to be compliant with UK laws therefore I don't need to devote a single neuronal activation further to it, certainly not in the forms of investigation or in holding demented, megarich malign forces to account"

Just read this "Dilbert" comic everyone's talking about; the protagonist - the only sensible character -is surrounded by those who are ignorant, hysterical, lazy, inept, corrupt or evil. The dog's cool and cynical like me though! I'm sure that this is in no way reflective of the author's worldview

Cheerio to the Dilbert guy. They say don't speak ill of the dead, so I will say this in his defence: I read some of his comics 25 years ago

i know it's 90% off but a warning to potential customers not to buy the steam version of heavy rain. it is not safe. it installs heavy rain on your computer

Calls for civility are often weaponized by abusers, by bigots, by those who would oppress you. If it is considered impolite to speak out against dishonor, then it is time for a true warrior to be rude.

For all the massively negative side effects of my meds, at least they help me regulate my sleep cycle.

Is there a name for the feeling "I should really get out of bed" when you're a) not in bed, and b) have already been up for several hours

Just had a wee revelation. When he was working on his Difference Engine, Charles Babbage was asked twice: "Pray, Mr. Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?" AI evangelists are are asking the exact same question, and are betting the entire economy on it

We should have arrested Tony Blair for war crimes when we had the chance

I hope the webcomic name guy is doing good, if they're on here they're impossible to find because if you search "webcomic name oh no" on here you find things no mortal being was meant to see

To anybody who is offended by the governor of Minneapolis telling ICE “get the fuck out of our city,” but not offended by ICE ethnic cleansing secret police summarily executing a local mom, a message: Go fuck yourself. Learn the difference between a swear word and an obscenity.

If you believe that "panicking when masked goons pull a gun on you and demand you get out of the car" is a crime for which a suitable punlshment is summary execution, then you are a despicable human being and the next time you point a gun at something please make sure it's your own head
