And just like that NOBODY can come to the UK to study from some of the poorest, worst countries on planet. Why? Racist BS basically.

FANCY HAT ALERT

It’s the 60th anniversary today of a dog called Pickles finding the stolen Jules Rimet trophy by a tree in Upper Norwood in south London, which will please anyone who’s watched Small Prophets

Brixton squirrels on vapes! (In my day the Brixton squirrels were on crack.) nypost.com/2026/03/24/s...

The trans agenda is simple, really. They want to go to the bathroom without being harassed. They want to live long enough to collect Social Security. They aren't trying to take your daughter's place on the JV team. The sex pests are overwhelmingly cops and conservative Christians.

Alas, it is 750 years to the day since Margaret of Holland, Countess of Henneberg, departed this life at just 42. Mind you, she had just given birth to 365 tiny mouse-sized children in one go after being cursed by a beggar woman she’d been rude to. Hardly any wonder, then, really... 🧵

'but harry potter was such a huge part of my childhood' reminder: the only reason jk rowling is doing a harry potter tv remake is bcos she wants a version she can flog that doesn't involve the original cast.

Hey friends, do you like CATS? Do you like MECHS? Do you like SPACE? What about CATS* in MECHS in SPACE? Well, if that sounds like fun then do I have some news for you....

Finally some good fucking news

Donald is only right at the wrong time.

He started a war, didn’t know how to win it, was immediately over his head, became quickly overpowered by an enemy he vastly underestimated, and now is trying to sue for peace and then convince you that this was a victory. Dying empires produce leaders like this

Around 7000 Americans were killed on Iwo Jima and 19,000 wounded, and it was part of a campaign that ended with a nuclear weapon being used, so maybe not the wisest comparison.

Yeah. This was always going to be the corner they painted themselves into, but it's still a horror movie experience seeing them fully embrace it.

Visited St. Michael's church in Brent Knoll and checked out their fine set of 15th century bench ends. Featuring the oft-told tale of the fox who dresses in the garb of an Abbot, gets apprehended and disrobed by a monkey, and finally hanged by a goose. A lesson for us all...

White supremacist caucasians should call themselves “cauc”, shouldn’t they, to avoid “-asians”? #Caucs #Caucheads #Caucasoid

So it turns out Reform are laundering their donations through crypto, before converting them into cash, hiding the original source of the money. So who is really funding Nigel Farage and Reform UK? observer.co.uk/news/nationa...

I briefly thought the assassination attempt on the idiot was real. He—who holds a grudge about *every little thing* and swears revenge on everyone who crosses him—never talks about his attempted murderer? It really doesn’t make sense. That and the “miracle” ear make it seem like a planned event.

Jesus, they weren’t bloody joking.

The full Strange Days lineup is out! I'll be talking Haunted London this time

A friend went round to his neighbours’ for Eid last night and apparently the wife slightly panicked about hosting white people because she disappeared for a couple of minutes and came back with half a pint of whisky for him. This, to me, is multiculturalism

I give you the Grand Logothete of Wallachia

I'm dog sitting what has been described as a 'reactive dog', which makes me worry that if it gets wet it'll burst into flames, like caesium.

turns out bob from chicago knows a little about what jesus would do

I cannot stress enough that the biggest power structure behind Israel isnt jews, its white republican evangelicals who want the apocalypse I am not even exaggerating

Reform’s loud opposition to net zero is driven by “the success of populist messages around Brexit plus significant financial backing from the fossil fuel industry and climate sceptics” Not science. Not national interest. Not public opinion. Just personal greed. www.theguardian.com/environment/...

Everybody knows Franz Kafka, but almost no one knows his sister Ottla. She was gassed on arrival at Auschwitz on Oct 7, 1943 after volunteering to escort a group of orphans from the Terezin ghetto so they wouldn’t be afraid. Original post

Because fragile, hateful men want to feel powerful, we will all have to live on turnips & never enjoy coffee or oranges again.

“… and it seems that the original Charlotte Corday used to go about stabbing oppressors in their baths, which entitles her to consideration and respect.”  (P.G. Wodehouse) 🎨Jean-Joseph Weerts “The Assassination of Marat” (1880)  #wyrdwednesday

Yup. I have a beard. The seal on my mask isn't perfect. Okay. It's still better than nothing. And, of course, I'm sure anti-maskers would be fine if a couple of the members of the surgical team for their emergency bypass didn't bother to mask. I mean, the surgeon is, so everything's fine, right?

Taxation is the compromise. The alternative, as history shows, is that the ultra-wealthy get dragged out of their homes. They should be taxed for their own good as well as ours. We can't maintain our democracy when these unelected and unaccountable kleptocrats hoard wealth on these scales.

Fascism and all the adjacent isms always have pseudoscience baked in. Always.

Brexit was “a colossal mistake” and the U.K. should rejoin the European Union, Alexander Stubb said Tuesday. #RejoinUK #Breturn www.politico.eu/article/finl...

see? here's the thing. A lot of people are like, the earth is fucked, it's beyond salvation, it's hit the tipping point, but time and time again we see that if we just fucking fixed the problem, it rebounds so incredibly fast. Imagine what could be done if people actually cared

"I deliberately constructed [Neuromancer] to piss off the traditional Science Fiction audience...but we never got the kind of reactionary-art shock outrage that I was sort of hoping for!" HAPPY BIRTHDAY MAESTRO! youtu.be/x6QH5ixsEEU?...

It’s interesting how every billionaire ceo’s ideology boils down to “you should give me all your money, I should be above the law, and I should be allowed to do anything I want.” Thiel being like, “oh you see because otherwise the antichrist” is barely an innovation

Crowd "You are a hero!" Greta Thunberg "No, we're not heroes. We're doing the bare minimum." We need more Greta's

I'm old enough to remember when Iran blew a 4.6m hole in a US guided missile frigate, almost sinking it and causing over $80 million in damage, using a surplus M-08 Imperial Russian contact mine of 1908 vintage. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/USS_Sam...
