Why doesn't FIFA simply offer Iran next year's peace prize, if they simmer down a bit?
I know it's a silly jokey joke, but people REALLY need to stop anthropomorphizing their boyfriends. "My boyfriend told me" your boyfriend didn't "tell" you anything. "My boyfriend thinks..." your boyfriend can't actually think or feel; just output a convincing simulation of it based on probability 🙄
(1) The accused declared, ordered, or otherwise indicated that there shall be no survivors or surrender accepted; (2) The accused thereby intended to threaten an adversary or to conduct hostilities such that there would be no survivors or surrender accepted; (3) It was foreseeable that circumstances would be such that a practicable and reasonable ability to accept surrender would exist; (4) The accused was in a position of effective command or control over the subordinate forces to which the declaration or order was directed; and (5) The conduct took place in the context of and was associated with hostilities.

Apropos of SecDef's remarks this morning:
Denial of quarter—even the declaration of no quarter—is a war crime.
And recognized as such by the US Government.
From DoD's Manual for Military Commissions.
Didn't he say he didnt need UK ships and mocked countries joining wars already won?

Phil Campbell

Phil Campbell was as important to Motörhead as anyone could’ve been. He was with Lemmy for 31 years and wrote and played on some of the greatest tracks the band ever released. His death hits me fucking hard.
Rest in Peace, tell Lemmy we all say hello
I’m gonna go cry now.
My friend Phil Campbell is gone. Sending my thoughts and love to his family. He and I recently spoke about our health issues. Sadly, he succumbed to his. Midler will miss you, old friend. Glad we got to show our stuff together on “These Old Boots”. Say hi to Lemmy for me….
What should we do in response to this breaking news? I am wondering how many tartan items I have in the house.
A wooden board is all you need. Does find separating pasta from antipasta
Was due to go see him in a few weeks :(

In *2018* I had a bit in my show about my mother revealing who Banksy was, because she knew HIS mum: 'oh yes, Mrs Gunningham's boy'. Here, a major news agency claims to have 'uncovered' this data nearly a decade after Margaret Watson broke it.

Snippet from @nickcohen.bsky.social that really resonates.
In England a driver can be speeding, using cannabis and a phone, overtake another vehicle, mount the pavement outside a school playground and kill a 4-year-old girl while uninsured — and receive just 3 years 10 months for causing death by careless driving.

That is the very point of a packet of Tuc cheese sandwich biscuits, surely?

Yes, you’re probably right in calling me a critic of Nigel Farage.
But I have to admit one thing.
And it pains me to say it:
Farage is an honest & committed politician who is without doubt a man of his word. 👍
Yeah. Labour has every right to feel the same way about taking over a country with a huge fiscal hole he was responsible for.
But it gets on with it without the epic public moans.

The rumours swirling around for a while now have finally been proven true, as Wetherspoons have confirmed their plans to take over The King's Head in Bearwood.
As part of the plan, they will increase the height of the building's corner tower and relocate the toilets right at the top.
The publishing industry's lack of confidence in authors and its own ability to create careers for them is pathetic and, in the end, self-defeating.

They’ll need to trim that bush.
