For those of us whose clueless parents were persuaded by presumably evil outsiders that what their children really wanted was an Amstrad, the situation was even worse
‘I love Joffrey, my one true king.’
‘And the Strait of Hormuz is open for transit.’
‘Oh come the fuck on.’
The most ‘what the fuck is going on’ rude awakening I’ve had in years
Used my iPad as an alarm for the first time this morning, it suggested using a song instead of the usual alert noise, and just to say being wrenched awake by the opening to ‘Surfing USA’ is really fucking surreal.
Did not like getting a 7am car this morning, but turns out driving east through Morocco at golden hour as the mist begins to settle, argan trees and forested hills giving way to olive groves and grassland, is one of the most beautiful and atmospheric drives imaginable.
Not on a Thursday surely?
One thing I’ve learnt in Morocco, old French people in a restaurant will follow you as you go to the loo and knock on the door even though you only closed it four seconds ago and are pissing so noisily it sounds like frying pork chops
It was certainly vigorous
Although I think the hammam scrubbed all that away.
I get on as well with camels as I do with dogs and power bottoms, I think it’s my natural musk
(The other camel was called Obama)
In a rush to get to the hammam (cause my camel ride got delayed) and only brought my sunglasses. Now it’s night in the medina and I have the fun choice of being half blind or looking like a twat. But at least I got to spend an afternoon with my new pal Blanco on the beach.
The whole business of oil transport could get an exciting new Mad Max kind of a vibe
*best part about the place, let’s be honest
My copy of @thefence.bsky.social in Saha Kfe
Feels like I’m on the only Brit in Essaouira* so only fair I brought the UK’s only magazine so I can read an article about the owner of Segway dying by reversing it over a cliff while I enjoy my amlou and mint tea
Out of my comfort zone I know, but I’d always assumed in this scenario it would be the active ones you’d need to target
Not much of a one for 5am airport beers, however I have just remortgaged my flat so I can afford a breakfast naan
Got through airport security at 5am, sat down in a bar to order breakfast, then some cunt stuck The Killers on
All packed so let myself crack open holiday read no. 1 a little early cause just look at that fucking cover
‘New follow suggestion: northern_flasher (Northern_flasher). You have 2 mutuals.’
Statue looking sad and angry while staring at a phone
Never change instagram
Yes
So happy our governments of recent years recognised this coming instability in the world, and ensured the incredible developments in solar power have reached every corner of the UK, so our homes, infrastructure and transport are far better prepared for an oil inflation wave
‘The Israel Defence Forces (IDF) hit 30 terminals on Saturday, claiming they were used by the regime to "supply fuel to different consumers, including its military organs". However, US officials fear the move could backfire, according to Axios, by rallying Iranian citizens to support the regime and driving up the cost of oil. Mr Trump has been under pressure at home over rising prices at the pump. "We don't think it was a good idea," a senior US official said. The message sent to Israel was essentially "WTF", according to an Israeli official.’
We live in interesting times
Twitter very aggressively promoted some web show / podcast Vittorio Angelone did to me, it also never showed me anything that good, I just watched cause I liked the hot Irish fellas
The few times I tried watching The Last Leg nothing that good ever happened
Possibly inevitably, here we are again
Yeah but she snores
