hello I'm mental

A people who demonstrated the most extraordinary courage in the face of the savagery of the Iranian regime, now “disappointing” the armchair warriors in America because they won’t sacrifice themselves in accordance with America’s timetable and to satisfy America’s needs.

I know it's not the most pressing matter, ( or is it?) but I keep wondering why Trump's first wife, who died after falling downstairs(!) is buried on his Florida golf course. This is NOT NORMAL. Any explanations? (Apart from tax reasons, apparently)

He's an idiot, and deep down in his subconscious, he's vaguely aware of it. He looks like a child who's been put in charge of something he doesn't understand. Blustering fear ineptly disguised with manosphere swagger. Shameful.

All the wrong people have imposter syndrome.

Massively self confident. Massively mad. Just like Hannan.

There's no reason for Iran to attack NATO nation Turkey—but a drone did. Iran denies sending it.

There's no reason for Iran to attack a UK base in Cyprus—but a drone did. Iran denies sending it.

Now Azerbaijan has been attacked. Iran denies involvement.

I think this is Israel.

Alistair Heath looks exactly as you think he'd look.

USA/Israel Will Fail In Iran. And that is the plan. The USA/Israel will fail in Iran. Just as they failed in Iraq. Afghanistan.... Vietnam.... Failure is the plan. Once you see the model, you can dismantle it....

The USA/Israel will fail in Iran. Just as they failed in Iraq. Afghanistan.... Vietnam.... This is all explained in the Epstein files.
Failure is the plan.
Humanity must learn the model -- to reclaim the tools of civilization.

Reform fury as someone else wins by Our By-election Editor Tim Shipsink The losing candidate in the Gorton and Denton by-election, Matt Goodwhinge, has demanded an immediate re-run of the election on the grounds that he lost comprehensively to someone else. "It's totally unfair and rigged," said Goodwhinge. "I shouldn't be required to sit there and suck it up, just because I lost." Mr Goodwhine continued, *I can't believe that all those voters I demonised failed to back me. Especially after I was endorsed by Tommy Robinson and ten million Russian bots on X. "We have clear evidence of family voting, where people voted in order for me to stop deporting their families." Mr Badloser concluded. "I'm the victim of colour prejudice. They didn't vote for me simply because I'm not green." Reform leader Mr Farage, speaking from a sun lounger on a rock near the Chagos Islands said, "It's a tragedy that the people of Manchester won't see Matt in Westminster, but my constituents don't see me in Clacton either."

Beautiful from Private Eye on the massive toddler-tantrum that Matt Goodwin and Reform are having, because they got whooped in Gorton and Denton.

I think one of the extraordinary things about it is that we know almost exactly who Richard is from the off- and on some subterranean level, so does Camilla. A sense of dread pervades a hot post war Summer, seeps into the ritual of middle class lives. It's unnerving.

'I'm crying as I write this. From Claridges, where we've been forced to re-locate.' Oh, it was heaven.I say this as someone who was walking the dogs when said tornado struck.Thought, ooh, that's a bit breezy, wow there goes a roof. Think I'll go home. Husband said 'A tornado ?? I didn't notice.'

This is horrible. Just vile.

Yes everything's terrifying, and the world's on fire. But look! Look what I found.....! What do they taste of? Falafel. Genius.

Never forget who you’re fighting for.

Almost as if the shit show was not entirely McSweeny's fault. And It was Keir all along...

Great novel. Have you read her A Wreath of Roses? It's tremendous. Almost a psychological thriller, rather unusual for Taylor. Usually regarded as middle class, home counties -which she was. But she was also a member of the Communist Party for most of her life

I'm not a graphologist, but that signature is hilarious. As if she's only recently learnt to do joined up writing.

They're all unhappy, surely. They seem to have a void inside, that nothing will ever fill. Hence the desperate grifting, the need for status, fame, stuff. The rictus grins of the Trump family Goodwin's vague look of terror. Farage's manic gurning. Damaged men fucking things up. Again.

There are masses of people called Maxwell. It's a Border Reiver name. If you'd just got on quietly with your life, no-one would have known about your dad looting a pension fund, and your sister being a sex trafficker. You are not a victim in this situation. Have some dignity.

End the sewage pollution scandal We're sick of it. Sick of the lies, sick of the greed, and sick of a system rigged against us. This is a scandal and this dirty business must end. For more than 30 years water companies have put corpo...

Are you watching Dirty Business? I can't believe how much water companies have gotten away with. They're putting profit before public health - it’s a scandal and the Government MUST take action! Sick of sewage? Add your name to the petition today: you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/en...

What is wrong with this man? Seriously, his family need to stage an intevention before half the US dies of something we thought had died out. The Black Death version 2.0
