Amazingly, it seems like every Sunday night we get an Axios report that a peace deal is imminent.

The winner of this war is Anthony Eden as he is no longer the dumbest imperialist of the postwar era.

When the US admits that they killed any “military-aged men” who walked within 3km of a downed pilot they mean any boy lanky enough to be a teenager and any middle-aged man able to walk unaided with a cane got shot in the head for the crime of walking.

Really now www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2026...

Yeah because I tried Mastodon in good faith and it was the social media experience of eating bran flakes while being glowered at by an angry German

Okay so here’s my actual Bluesky-is-dying hypothesis: The entire web is dying. Users aren’t going from BlueSky to another site (x/insta/threada/tiktok). Users are going to chatbots. I know traffic to news sites has cratered (like 90%). My hunch is traffic to all the social platforms is down too.

She gone *ATTORNEY GENERAL PAM BONDI WAS OUSTED, TRUMP TELLS FOX NEWS

to be fair lots of people have bad watchmen takes

BREAKING: Iran's foreign minister says his country does not accept a ceasefire, and instead wants a complete end to the war throughout the region, according to Al-Jazeera report.

Perhaps we can look forward to him forming a new political party with Liz Truss?

NEW: the UK government recommends that toddlers should not be given more than a hour's screentime a day www.ft.com/content/44fc...

Everyone loves to cry false flag, but have you considered that some people are just dumb?

To elements of the left and paleocons, "neocon war hawk" is anyone who would authorize force abroad in any case whatsoever. It's as empty as how libertarians pretend like "statists", who are 99.999% of the population in their definition but not their estimation, are the crazy ones.

Is it too much to ask for a politician to be pro: Ukraine Palestine Raising taxes on the wealthy without being weird about not taxing the middle class

I regret to inform you all that it's the 5th anniversary of this Dan Hannan classic. Anticipating his Berk's (sic) Peerage era.

So... does anyone actually know what the US just hit on Kharg Island? Not what Trump says they were aiming for. What they actually hit. From everything way smarter people are saying, what got hit could be pretty determinative of just how much Iran loses its mind tomorrow...

It is kinda funny the navy is just refusing to do what is ostensibly one of its core functions

Yes everything is terrible but let’s not lose sight of the fact that someone has written the Headline to End All Headlines.

Yeah I give up I'm gonna go deal with a highly rational market, the Path of Exile: Mirage League economy

Pretty serious allegation here. "Witnesses told the BBC that the Israeli soldiers had arrived disguised in Lebanese military fatigues and used ambulances with signs of Hezbollah's Islamic Health Organization." www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Kemi Badenoch and Nigel Farage want Britain to blindly follow Trump into this illegal war, even though the President has no plan for what comes next. There is nothing patriotic about outsourcing Britain’s foreign policy to Donald Trump.

Me normally: medieval peasants get a bad rap, they weren’t the Monty Python caricature of a horde of superstitious, unwashed morons. Me thinking about the People’s Crusade: fucking peasants

Sorry, couldn't resist.

EXCLUSIVE: The strike that destroyed a school in Minab, Iran was larger than has been previously reported. A nearby clinic was also hit. The evidence suggests a precision strike against an IRGC base that was adjacent to the school. www.npr.org/2026/03/04/n...

I'll maintain that anyone interested in actually replacing the Iranian regime would would have put a premium on convincing the Iranian Navy to defect instead of massively overhyping them as a threat and easily sinking all their ships for Praying Mantis/Belgrano cosplay.

Hegseth has offered more clarity on his war on the Boy Scouts than on the current war with Iran.

I think they should make Matt Goodwin give a concession speech in Urdu

In seriousness, someone I am friends with posted this in the group chat, and I think about it all the time now, so many men are like this

You spend a decade trying to understand the UK’s baffling relationship to class, you think you’ve finally started to get it, then you see something like this and realise you’re right back to square one.

It’s on Google, even though it is making search worse. It’s on WhatsApp, even though I absolutely do not want “homework help” or “relationship advice” from my messaging app. In the year of our lord 2026, it is everywhere. And it *doesn’t work*.

i would be fascinated to find out why Canadian Boomers are the LPC's strongest soldiers while in the UK the boomers are pro-Farage

Thanks for clarifying the source because I legit thought it was another tediously contrarian Atlantic piece.

This is probably ok

Did not expect the story of Mario Tennis Fever to basically begin with “Daisy is on her deathbed.”

That poor dogs face: “I know he’s a friend of Epstein but what can I do, I’m a dog!”

The Georgia Democrats didn't just destroy Derek Dooley they buried him 100 feet under the earth.

Reading the entire Thucydides for the first time and boy does Athens not come off well in the lead-up. Corinth has fairly legitimate grievances and the Athenian response is just "nuh uh"

so many mistakes could have been avoided, if Pippin had simply been given some prescription Adderall

lol what

Unnamed White House official: “He doesn’t like chaos on his watch” www.nbcnews.com/politics/tru...

Yeah, I'm sorry. Your dog has a severe case of being a cat. That'll be £1,600 please

liz truss has now been a podcaster for longer than she was prime minister

I have questions.

say what you like about Saruman but at least he was a YIMBY

a not insignificant number of people on Threads seem to believe the snow storm was The Government's attempt to refreeze the Leviathan, the world-eating serpent, which was getting loose (to eat the world, I assume)

This world is hilarious* because I wake up to check my feed, and it’s evenly split between clips of government officials lying/equivocating and a hundred pictures of Yoshi.

in conclusion, the Home Office sucks
