I can't believe this is real. What an absolute loser.

**It was a consultation of the PUBLIC who decided the next theme, not the government.**

Labour doesn't hate patriotism or Churchill. I expected this culture war stupidity from Badenoch but COME ON - and set to that music? Get outta here.

I did a full double take & asked:

β€œWhere did you even hear the phrase fight the power?”

They giggled madly and said it’s in a Dogman book.

Then belted out BEYOND THE BARRICADES IS THERE A WORLD YOU LONG TO SEE directly in my face.

So it’s going well! And, uh, thanks Dav Pilkey!

Like ok not ALL Irish music is political, there's also "Ah shit, the fey" of course, but like, "tally-tally-whack-fol okay the English have stopped paying attention listen up boys" is maybe half of Irish folk music on its own.

β€˜Hey’ came before β€˜hi,’ and β€˜hi' came before β€˜hello.’

β€˜Hi’ is most likely a variant of β€˜hey.’

β€˜Hello’ is not related to either.

Goodbye.

This is hilarious.

Also, completely enraging.

Fascinating thread from a US senator.

Interesting that as he cannot say anything which was briefed and classified, he lists what was not briefed.

Clever.

Now might be a good time to untether electricity prices from gas prices and work towards ending dependency on oil.

Amusing nerd side note, we insisted the wife’s death is fake (part of the conspiracy) and I snapped β€œI’m not fridging his wife!” in a meeting, then had to spend five minutes explaining @gailsimone.bsky.social and the concept to the heads of both Sony and NBC.

I’ve seen it said that the conclusive proof for innate sexuality is the continued existence of heterosexual women over the age of 30.

LIEU: Did Amalia commit a crime?

NOEM: She did not. She's with her family

LIEU: The reason she's with her family is because she almost died in ICE detention until folks brought a lawsuit forcing her release

Raskin: Based on what you know today, were Renee Good and Alex Pretti domestic terrorists?

Noem: What happened was an absolute tragedy.

Raskin: Were they domestic terrorists?

Noem: My condolences to their families

Raskin: You lied about them.

I tell people that if the government is covering up the existence of aliens, NASA is absolutely not involved, because astrobiologists can't keep a secret to save their lives

By the way that "Windows 12" article you've all seen? It's an awful clickbait website known for posting absolute bollocks and literally nobody else is reporting it. You can probably breath easy (or as easy as you can with Windows 11, suckers!)

Yeah, the PCCinema landlord is ALSO the US candy shops asshat AND the one doing mass evictions in London before the new Renter's Rights law comes in.

When we talk about Baby Boomers not getting off the stage: In 1997, the US president was born in 1946.

In 2007, the US president was born in 1946.

In 2017, the US president was born in 1946.

And next year in 2027? The US president will have been born in 1946.

So, in launching a huge bombing campaign on Iran they apparently didn't plan for:

- Who takes over;
- Interceptor shortages from sustained drone retaliation;
- How to defend US bases in the region;
- Threats to ships in the Strait of Hormuz; and
- How to evacuate Americans with airspace closed.

Laura Kuenssberg, "Are the US and Israeli strikes on Iran legal under international law?"

John Healey, "We weren't involved in the strikes"

Laura Kuenssberg, "Were they legal under international law?"

John Healey, "It's for the US to explain the legal basis they're operating under"

While we sit around to find out how bad exactly it all is, a bit of cheer: the best baguette of Paris competition was won by a Sri Lankan who appears to have started as a dish washer in restaurants and eventually trained as a Boulanger.

I think if I'd gotten away with attempting a coup, suffered no consequences for it, then won an election four years later, got away with executing citizens in the streets and foreigners in boats, and successfully abducted a head of state, I too might think I could just bomb my way to regime change

The first time The Onion used this headline was March 2003 and it could just keep it on the banner of the webpage every year, basically.

There is an actual argument that this curse actually worked.

What else is there to say but: these people were warned and warned and warned again about this, going back well over ten years and further, and their constant response was: absolutely fuck you, you are all idiots and we are the smart, Sensible people whom understand what the public like and want.
