This is the most British thing ever

I can only hear the line "Am I watching things on television that are different from what's happening?" in the confused quiet voice my mom had went her dementia got really bad.

Wait: so the President of the United States shared a video of a fake news report, rooted in a conspiracy theory, that features an AI-generated version of himself promoting a policy that…doesn’t exist?

HA HA YES!

The 'Riyadh Comedy Festival' reminds me of the story of Freddie Starr performing in the Middle East, under instruction not to swear or refer directly to Prince Hussein. He came on and said 'Which one of you fuckers is Prince Hussein?' and the curtain immediately came down.

San Francisco!! Thank you!!

This is beyond Trump’s now familiar scammy marketing of crypto, NFTs etc. He appears to have posted a deepfake AI video of himself legislating for human-body-regenerating “medbeds” – which don’t exist – though I don’t even think it’s his scam to profit from financially.

You can't satirise United any more, they've gone beyond parody

When the Roger Rabbit short ROLLER COASTER RABBIT was produced by Disney & Amblin, Spielberg wanted it packaged with ARACHNOPHOBIA. Michael Eisner wanted to release it with DICK TRACY & ultimately won out. Its a shame Spielberg & Disney only made 3 Roger Rabbit shorts because they were immaculate.

As a little thank you to everyone who's backed www.kickstarter.com/projects/dav... so far here's a few of the posters that didn't make the final cut for the calendar starting with Groundhog Day (1957) descriptions in alt text 1/4

i have a tiktok about people eating swans that has had over eleven thousand views and i’ve had to delete approximately a hundred comments of people saying “it’s true, the rspca put out a video” when the rspca said it wasn’t true and the video was taken out of context.

The SASS on that boy.

You can't joke about anything anymore. Because you signed a multi figure contract with the Saudi government that said they wouldn't pay you if you did.

I'm going to America on Monday. Hoping for a lovely, uneventful and calm few days where the most exciting thing is seeing Sparks play in Los Angeles.

I now have 101 5 star reviews of my shop. If that sounds like I'm showing off it's because I am. marswasrubbish.etsy.com/uk/listing/1...

I feel this is the moment Trump finally grew into the presidency. Unfortunately it's the presidency of Uganda in the 1970s.

The Morecambe and Wise Show (27th September 1974). Andre Previn returns to the show.

As a resident of #Portland it is impossible to capture how unhinged this is. We are a low crime city and the ICE protest "siege" consists of one auxiliary ICE office that normally has at most a dozen weirdos debating what performance art they should use to block a single driveway

He really does exist in an entirely alternate reality. The trouble is that we then have to deal with the consequences of it in this reality.

Just how wild was the @sparksofficial.bsky.social gig last night?!

My latte has a bum on it

Fugitive

Is it some cunning plan for Manchester United to visit Brentford wearing the colour of bees?

Sky News and the BBC repeatedly mention the "migrant crisis" in doing so they are normalising and legitimising far right talking points. There is no "migrant crisis", there is only migrant hysteria, which the British media is feeding into instead of countering.

I would much prefer to be 2D than 3D. I always wanted to be a cartoon.

A less well known Raffaella Carrà song, but still a surprising banger. Fun fact, the guy running up and putting the mic down was her husband and choreographer. youtu.be/5QgiVmXbHWU?...

My attention has been drawn to an English language version of Rumore by Rafaella Carra. Titled Get Movin' and with a slightly beefier mix with extra horns and keyboards (to my ears) it only came out on an Emidisc acetate in '74 or as a bonus track on a '99 compilation cd... youtu.be/eNUnRET_cqg?...

Ken Campbell once used a medium to contact the ghost of Laurence Olivier. He asked the spirit who was the greatest actor in the world right now, and received the answer “Jackie Chan”. So Campbell rented as much Chan on VHS as possible and watched the lot. “And do you know, the man was RIGHT!”

I went to a bar yesterday and their cocktail of the week was the French 75, so I laughed and said "One Battle After Another!" and the staff went ? and then I discovered that PTA named his domestic terror group after a WW1 cocktail originally served in an artillery shell

you probably need to be of a certain vintage to understand the absolute hilarity of ken starr being in the epstein files

To be fair, I think all of that would stick in anyone's memory.

This video is giving bsky energy. Or, at least, the energy I want it to have.

One Battle After Another felt like a harder Big Lebowski. In a good way.

A mass walkout of the UN General Assembly as Netanyahu prepares to speak.

"There place in history is settled" says man who doesn't understand how history works.

Even a primary critic of Comey says this is some bullshit.

‘Why has the poster boy for the far-right taken on London?’ ‘Because we’re proof that diversity works.’ Sadiq Khan warns that figures like Donald Trump are ‘playing on the fears’ of those concerned about unlawful immigration.
