The most hilarious thing about the far right is how afraid they are of imaginary things. They're all "Grr I'm an alpha male but London is so scary tho" "1000 hobbits will descend on your village" Or some nonsense.

BASH: We have seen these attacks from the president at other people. It's not new. And I haven't heard you speak out about it until it was directed at you.


MARJORIE TAYLOR GREENE: I think that's fair criticism. And I would like to say, humbly, I'm sorry for taking part in the toxic politics.

Iโ€™ve grown to really dislike late 90s - early 2000s lettering. Just canโ€™t enjoy the story if the letters are ugly.

I think the trick to growing old gracefully, which I now consider to be a pertinent personal concern, is to learn to not understand things without getting upset, frustrated or angry about it or the things (or people) you donโ€™t understand.

Remember the time Obama personally caught a fainting woman during his speech โ€” rather than just blankly staring like a sociopath?

Character isn't something you tell people about.

It's something you live.

Weโ€™ve had years of racist scaremongering in London over our 3 times elected mayor Sadiq Khan.
When working outside the Capital Iโ€™ve had numerous people ask me in sincerity what itโ€™s like living under Sharia law & how pubs survive now everyoneโ€™s too scared to go out after 9pm.
Brace yourselves NYC!

I doubt this will even be โ€˜newsโ€™. Everyone on @lbc.co.uk just arguing the toss over ยฃ500 all day.

Iโ€™m a signpainter and I was asked to create some logos, quickly, on site, for one off use at a festival type event. At last, I thought, an opportunity for AI to speed up my workflow. Fed a decent amount of information into Metaโ€™s AI and this is what it came up withโ€ฆ

The weird thing is, the flag shaggers absolutely did forget.

I think reporting their incompetence is as important as their malevolence.

Because watching Reform fall out in lumps is funny? Because having video too makes it popular across multiple platforms?

The canโ€™t just print โ€˜Reform have taken millions from Russia in bribesโ€™ on every page.

So were the councillors all acting in that leaked video then? To distract from the Russia stuff?
Donโ€™t be silly, these people are morons.

Itโ€™s made me realise how little non-artists actually look at stuff. I worry that โ€˜almost good enoughโ€™ is good enough to end illustration as a viable career path.

The best song ever recorded is Everybody Wants To Rule The World by Tears For Fears.
The second best is It's Only Natural by Crowded House.
