Nothing says “unafraid” like switching off replies and quotes. Melt cunt.

I think about this tweet every day

Sorry I think using AI for placeholders is also bad ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ I know you only care about finished art but placeholder art also needs to be made by a human being who also needs to be paid for that But placeholder midjourney slop cuts that artist out

epic will pay for every game that gets claimed this way so yes, you are still giving money to rowling (and by extension an international campaign against trans people) by claiming this there are other, better franchises - let this one go

Justin Webb, in a far more consequential position as presenter of a flagship news programme, has repeatedly violated impartiality rules. If he had a similar warning, it clearly had no effect and he’s been allowed to continue.

I mean yeah, it’s a bummer but has it occurred to people that maybe they were never all that liberal to begin with?

Which views the BBC considers unacceptably political in its presenters is particularly telling, isn't it?

I find it interesting that eg having full knowledge of, and having no problem with, your father’s sex-trafficking operation is no barrier to working for the BBC, but suggesting trans people should be afforded dignity and respect is apparently beyond the pale.

Never forget: the endless cant about free speech and open discussion is the purest of pure hypocrisy. What is meant is always freedom and openness... circumscribed by the limits we set, which always correspond to the prerogatives and prejudices of power.

If my organization had no space for the fundamental decency of Robin Ince then I would probably start asking deeply searching questions about the goals of that organization.

Robin Ince reveals to last night’s audience at a recording of Infinite Monkey Cage that the BBC has forced him to resign over his support of trans people

My phone updated overnight and now everything looks like pure dogshit

Kinda wild you can be quoted in a mass murderer’s manifesto, maintain those politics and still get invited on radio for a natter. But if you say trans rights or call Trump a cunt you get called into meetings and threatened with termination

BBC’s fucking cooked mates. Shut the whole fucking thing down, the vandals and shitheads have won this one.

“Respected”? Have we just memory-holed “I once considered committing a racist murder” then? Nah, go on, tell me about “cancel culture” again.

It’s not necessary to keep highlighting the qualities of exceptional immigrants as a reason for them to be treated well by their governments. We don’t have to be on our best behaviour to receive a basic level of human decency: that‘s why they’re called “human rights”, and not “human privileges”.

The public inquiry into the Iraq War was as damning as it’s possible to be within this system. The parliamentary report on Libya tore the government a new arse. Both of them were instantly thrown in the bin and never mentioned again, in favour of inviting the culprits on TV and giving them peerages.

Holy shit they literally did the thing.

Going out in Camden tonight so I’m gonna have one of those Wendy’s burgers where the bun’s two grilled cheese sandwiches for my tea; I’m a classy lad like that.

now that megaman 12 has a release date we can finally confirm that clarissa explains it all takes place in the year 2027

Reminder that JK Rowling sees any support of Harry Potter as an endorsement of her political beliefs, and she uses Harry Potter royalties to further her transphobic hate campaign. Your friends and family might not think you're a bigot for buying Harry Potter shit, but Rowling herself certainly will.

In case anyone thinks I'm being distasteful in laughing at this racist piece of shit taking a tarmac high dive and scoring perfect tens across the board, here's a selection from his Facebook account.

holy shit the Steven Seagal hairline these days

"people with renaissance-level art skills don't exist anymore" yes they do their username is something like 03748218_ and they spend all their time drawing pornography so deranged it'd kill hugh hefner a second time

I suppose on the plus side for old Paul his lifetime ban is finally over!

"Well-known Bristol football fan" is an interesting way of saying "notoriously violent and racist hooligan".

In which the MEN goes out of its way to launder the reputation of a violent racist who died doing what he loved ie racism. www.manchestereveningnews.co.uk/news/uk-news...

What nobody seems to have tried is "make a society pleasant enough that people actually want to raise their kids in it." Coincidentally, a goal incompatible with "turn everyone into a border guard and massively ramp up the racism."

This was yesterday, and it really is worth noting that this is what the political class and most of the press has been falling over itself to protect: the type of shit they would be demanding the army crack down on, from any other set of fans.

Alrighty then.

Long shot, but does anyone in Switzerland have an emergency Theremin to loan tomorrow night ( Friday 12 December )? #ViaMardot is playing a show in St Gallen, and the airline lost her equipment!!! We can help pay for a courier if needed, please share to get this message out!! #theremin #switzerland

Mouse Cunts making it extremely easy for me to not miss paying them for Disney+

SKULL OF THOMAS AQUINAS: TAKE A LEFT NOW PRIEST: No, the GPS says we have to keep going— SKULL: I KNOW A SHORTCUT PRIEST: Do you remember the last ti— SKULL: FOR THOSE WITH FAITH, NO EVIDENCE IS NECESSARY; FOR THOSE WITHOUT IT, NO EVIDENCE WILL SUFFICE

I reckon there’s an argument to be made that it’s ok to kill anyone involved in writing or publishing this article because they demonstrably don’t have a soul.

Do people just keep saying shit like this because they like getting yelled at, or because they simply don’t understand how live music works and are unwilling to learn?

I think people often conflate the teenage years they were having themselves with the musicians they were into at the time. I think quite a lot of major label bands who didn’t really have any overt politics at all got sort of bundled in with all kinds of ideas.

Always grimly funny when people do this shit – acting like No Doubt were previously on the same political level as e.g. Propagandhi, rather than a particular version of “punk” with all the stuff that might have made it unpalatable to the mass market sanded off.

That thing where… I wanna say Jake Gyllenhall (?) is twatting about in an Ambulance, doing generic Action Shit in the least exciting way possible. Pure shite.

RIP to those 0.1 million people.

I'm so old I can remember when even the hint of the suggestion of racism was intolerably disqualifying. I wonder what has happened to change these people's opinion in the last six years?

I think the coded language most ignored is how the right uses “inefficiency” to mean “things not yet being profit maximized by private equity” rather than “running smoothly with minimal waste”

This is 100% the least punk-rock thing I’ve ever seen or heard of in my life. Shut it all the fuck down.

Jimmy Fallon would host the Hunger Games.

Imagine, if a British political leader was to be showered with absurdly over-adulatory praise for skills and knowledge that he very plainly does not possess. Thank you, British politics commentators, for the bounty of your wisdom

This entire grift relies on convincing people that they don't know how to do the things they have always known how to do, and ironically, if it works, we will, in a very short amount of time, forget how to do all the things we have always known how to do.

Once again the UK prefers racism to prosperity

I can’t emphasize enough how much you need to watch this until the end
