The world looking at Trump after he said Venezuela is now run by the US

So in Trump’s mind we have simply conquered a sovereign nation of 28 million people in a night and now all their stuff belongs to him.

I sleep with my phone on aeroplane mode so it's always a good sign when I turn reception back on and my phone buzzes for 15+ seconds with backlogged breaking news notifications

Nobody: Erika Kirk on her grieving tour:

An early entry for the 2026 Grifties @michaelhobbes.bsky.social @yrfatfriend.bsky.social

They're not middle management Hugo they're your boss. His resentment and repeatedly using that phrase is so telling.

What a weird name for a dog. But sorry for their loss.

"What was your favourite game of 2025?" Keir Starmer - *sincere answer about spending his limited time with his kids playing Mario Kart, delivered as if he just googled it* Ed Davey - "I still love a bit of Wii Sports" Kemi Badenoch - "My best friend was killed by a Sega Mega Drive"

Woke 2 will be making straight men allies by infiltrating their sports spaces with yaoi

a vibe shift is occurring man

Damn those middle aged women the gay ice hockey programme was made for are HORNY (complimentary)

Ever since we did our Eric Adams episodes I keep getting Instagram ads for Turkish Airlines

Out: Damned spot In: Becoming queen of Scotland

love wintertime, it starts with fresh snow and holiday cheer and new year's festivities and then immediately slides into three months of just being cold and miserable 🤩

The thing I respect most about Obama being one of the youngest presidents is how he just treats it like a phase in his life

Christmas Mubarak from the Right Wing's dystopian London, insha'Allah you day is merry and bright

Carol of the Bells in # Kyiv subway. Voices of the Embassies of Germany, France, and the United Kingdom came together to perform Shchedryk in the Kyiv metro as a sign of solidarity with Ukraine. Thankful to everyone who stands with us!

Nice

Now watching:

Absolutely no disrespect to the Czechs, but their language does look like a parody of a European language

Rosalia and gift wrapping 🙂‍↕️

In a sign that I am now deeply middle aged I caught myself getting excited that - due to our bin day being Wednesday - we won't experience any disruption over the Christmas period AND it's big bin day tomorrow. It's a Christmas miracle 🙂‍↕️

Labour/Lib Dem/SNP/Green/Plaid coalition anyone?

Hey diva

I am unstoppable unless there’s a minor inconvenience.

Omg remember that time during the pandemic that the music industry lost its mind and thought the future of music was sea shanties? Weird!

Thank fuck it's the last day of term

I love my two blackout drunk Minnesota sons

Even by my low expectations for Kemi Badenoch ‘violence against women and girls is something done by immigrants and nobody else’ has shocked me.

Contrary to the meme, Stalin would *not* be loving this.

I'm sorry... What? This is pure Thick of It. Yes and Ho!

Far from the main issue but what is with the random capitalisation of words? Not just being snarky but shows how slap dash and unserious this is (in case you needed additional proof)

After 3+ months I *FINALLY* got round to getting a haircut (there is no before pictures because it was horrific)

Can't believe the Rihanna x The Smurfs collab was this year, feels like a lifetime ago.

There is so much in Britain that just is unimaginable in a US context. "Actually yeah we have bishops in the legislature and many schools have daily Christian prayer, but religiosity is barely a factor in politics" is an especially difficult-to-comprehend thing I think

Love nothing more after a full day teaching and a parents' evening than getting stuck behind two (2) different Rotary Club Santa float processions while desperately trying to get home 🤗

[12hrs into my ice interrogation] agent: in 2021 you posted “they should call him matt hardcock am i right fellas” can you explain that? me: do you know who matt hancock is? a:… [43mins later] a: he had his own app? for parkour? me: no the parkour was a separate issue

Never in a million years will you guess where this video ends up...

Took me far too long to realise that this was actually referring to a church in Charlotte, North Carolina, not the Welsh lass

My parents and uncle/aunt (born in the 50s) yearned for 1950s style kitchen gadgets. I (born in the 80s) yearned for sepia kodak shots. Nature is healing 😁

People who write in the double/triple negative really confuse me ngl

Currently rewatching a seminal piece of cinema

Hey

my great-grandparents arrived in the UK in the 1890s with nothing. they sold pickles from the front room window, took in laundry, worked as tailors. their children were nurses, teachers, salesmen. their grandchildren were professors, designers, opticians, doctors, magistrates, entrepreneurs.

She absolutely hit the ground on day one! www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

Do you think anyone has ever completed Google Maps?

As I sat down to eat my lunch I realised the cat had shat on the floor. While I was cleaning it up she ate my lunch. If anyone wants to adopt a cat hmu.
