The more time passes, the more I think that the way opposition media (and esp things like Spitting Image) presented John Major - that's how Starmer _actually_ is

I have worn mine full time since before my teens so comically I have the opposite annoyance where my changing vision means I can in theory take _off_ glasses to read (which is a new experience!) but I am so used to wearing them that catching sight of myself without them feels Very Weird and Wrong

realising that perhaps the reason I've felt shittier than usual for a while and Somewhat Out Of It is probably because I really need new glasses so focussing on stuff is perhaps not as easy as it should be

It is impressive just how many have the exact same "posh student trying very hard to sound less posh just after freshers week" voice.

I am laughing my ass off at the propaganda machine trying to insist that the back half of "fuck around and find out" isn't a thing, and countries being attacked should just quietly sit there and not do anything about it rather than, you know, responding. What did you _think_ would happen, lads?

I'm assuming they're seconds away from cutting to vox pops with wealthy British expats and influencers in Dubai explaining just how _shaken_ they are

They don't need to blame it on anyone. Neither the US nor Israel has any qualms killing kids, nor faces any consequence for doing so. They can just shrug, say "what are you going to do about it?" then laugh it up and high-five each other

Sadly both the US and Israel seem well aware that there are no consequences for murdering whoever they like (and, I can only assume, have militaries that are keen on doing exactly that) so they're cheerfully comfortable to kill children then shrug. It's absolutely grim

Decided to rewatch The Man Who Wasn't There and damn this is so good, definitely one of my favourite Coen Brothers films. Also on a rewatch it's very noticeable that a lot of the DNA for the Fargo series is actually right here, perhaps even more so than in Fargo itself.

On a 8am train from Dortmund to Stuttgart (3.5 hours, total price €30) and these lads were drinking pints for €2.50, literally cheaper than my coffee. Another world is possible

the whole framework of privilege can be weaponized in service of empire extremely easily; you have to always ask yourself which voices are you privileging and to what end?

or you could just uniformly oppose American military action and be right 99% of the time

there's literally no way to liberate a people by murdering their children en masse. Israelis use liberating Gaza from Hamas as a justification just like I'm seeing Americans (including Iranian-Americans) justify it here. but it makes you a monster, an accomplice to monstrous things.

A pint of beer. The glass has an octopus on it and says OTHERWORLD

Oh also, you'll see why I like the brewery whose pub it is (this is just an IPA)

The pub I'm in has 18 taps but a beer decision took 0.5 seconds because how could I resist a pint of Super Graphic Ultra Modern Gose (from Closet Brewing, no less) 🌈🍺

I mean it's a cocktail festival, if you aren't meant to drink a whole lot of cocktails then the entire concept just falls apart. You don't go to a music festival to see _one_ band

BRITISH KROOT: Imperial Guard! Kill them all. No prisoners.
FRENCH KROOT <dragging on a Gauloise and swirling half a glass of wine>: un moment, mon frere. There is, 'ow you say? No rush.

Maybe the problem with Britain is that *a flood of words cascade out to overwhelm your senses sounding something like glossolalia crossed with 1000 voices reading a fast-scrolling list of competition winners or TV show credits, before it rises to a shriek that shatters glass*

It's dumb as fuck that Labour will think the best attack line against the Greens is that they wouldn't support fascist states in their wars and genocides, and that this totally endangers Britain for real

(flag wankers sadly will lap up that slop greedily)

sitting in the same seat at the local bierkeller for years on end, telling anyone who would listen how _he_ would have dealt with the Gladbeck hostage crisis

the Body System release covered in this is absolutely killer. It kicks ass, and by _actually having vocals_ is already more fun than half the "italo body music" stuff from a few years ago

if you were planning an occult murder and this wasn't _already_ on your calendar then maybe just stick to the regular kind because you're not cut out for the occult ones imo
