Some Guy in Kent

14 years ago today. No social media manager. No PR. Just raw unfiltered emotion and heartfelt stream of consciousness for a much-loved and much-missed musical icon. The day the music died and Twitter peaked. @

They’ll platform some cretin like Steve Laws to ‘both-sides’ the arse out of it for ‘balance’ when they should just shoot it down on facts alone:

1) His figures are wrong regardless of how he feels, and 2) he’s an ‘ex-pat’ (immigrant) tax exile

3) (for a laugh) list the nationalities Man U 1st 11

dear media, Jim Ratcliffe’s far-right language does not mean it’s a green light for a phone-in asking ‘is he right?’ it’s the moment to call out his use of far-right language

Man I'm so goddamn sick of ai. "Wahhh you can't have a reasonable conversation about ai on here," yeah maybe be mad about the two year parade of scam artists and financial charlatans and environmental ruiners who have radicalized everyone against the spell check that agrees with you

PM asks Sir Jim Ratcliffe to apologise for saying UK 'colonised by immigrants' Sir Keir Starmer says comments by the businessman and Manchester United co-owner are

‘What was that? Jim Ratcliffe’s a cunt? No way! Who could have possibly seen that? - the Brexit-backing, tea-lady sacking, tax-exile’s a massive fucking bellend?’

Next up - ‘hold tight for the shocking research regarding bears, woods, and shit!😱’

I dunno, there seems to be a hard floor of ~25-30% where he could personally deliver a kick to the balls, fuck their wife, then wipe his dick on the curtains on the way out - and they’d still vote for him

I’m not going to give them the clicks but the framing here suggests ‘hot new thing’ - when it should be ‘FAILED COUNTRY’

Fucking dog food 🙄

They went through and hid all the replies saying it looks like an ICE goon lol

Is this a lot? It sounds like a lot...

I tried to take a photo of a grasshopper on my windshield, but now it looks like a gigantic bug destroying the town.

Conservatives/UKIP*/Reform/Advance UK

I’m all for this continuing fractionalisation of the UK right - it should keep them out of power for eternity

(*they’re still a thing - apparently)

*appreciate it goes back to a party membership vote but that’s a small sliver of the UK public, and said ‘reset’ can be the complete antithesis of whatever the manifesto promised at the time the public cast their vote

I’m not sure it does a our politics much good though, the Conservatives jettison their leadership and immediately attempt to rebrand/change course without the public having a say*

I think I’d prefer a set term except in cases deemed ‘sackable’ in the private sector - not just ‘poll says…’

Yeah - but it’d be kinda funny to see if any puce coloured columnists finally stroke out, right?

Imagine the number of ‘Rayner induced coronaries’

This guy had the right idea

PANEL 1: MATTIE, looking at her phone, talking to someone offscreen. MATTIE: Hey, did you see this big list that got published? VO: No! What is it. PANEL 2: MATTIE, raising her eyebrows. MATTIE: Looks like there's an undercover cabal of draculas and other ghouls that seemingly kind of runs the entire world AND is responsible for every shitty thing that's happened for like, two decades. Huh. PANEL 3: MATTIE, looking at the person she's been talking to, who appears to be some sort of dracula. THE DRACULA: Have you read the whole thing yet? MATTIE: No, why? PANEL 4: Another GHOUL appears on the other side of MATTIE. DRACULA: I was just going to say it's probably not that big of a deal who's on there, actually. GHOUL: Classic over-reaction.

That ‘doing something’ being a jolly in Italy is surely completely unrelated?

I’m not a massive fan of Starmer but I’m not sure who this shit benefits?

The country went to shit while the Tories played musical chairs with their leadership

Just leave him in place for his term - if he doesn’t turn it around, the voters will have their say come the GE

Elmo @elmo · 1h That Bunny was AMAZING. Elmo thinks he should be called Good Bunny! Elmo loves you, Mr. Good Bunny! ❤️🎶🐰 Based Yankee @thebasedyankee You and Bad Bunny should be deported

It's not even midnight and we're already at "Deport Elmo."

When I read ‘he’s going the wrong way’ I was hoping you’d suggested he use his ‘Boring Company’ to tunnel straight down to the centre of the earth like a Bond villain

So that we’d never hear from him again

I asked AI to name my wife. To the hopelessly incorrect people it cited, my deepest apologies | Martin Rowson Authors, a newsreader, a lawyer and an esteemed colleague: they’re all great – but I’m not married to any of them. Can we really depend on this technology, asks cartoonist and author Martin Rowson

Bloody hell! Me in today's @theguardian.com www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Dominic Cummings currently dusting off his CV and writing a 25,000 word covering letter

I’m wondering how Starmer can fuck this further?

ChatGPT as the new CoS, maybe?

Glasman as the new CoS by Tuesday 🙄

‘I did not oversee the vetting process’

ffs - Mandelson was sacked twice before due to corruption and it was widely known he was still best pals with Epstein after Epstein was convicted

McSweeney thinks we’re all idiots

I wonder if Dominic Cummings is busy?

McSweeney resigns - great

It’d probably be better still if we simply stopped elevating these Rasputin wannabes to high office in the first place?

Cummings, Timothy, Cain, Gibb, Campbell, etc, etc - it feels like there’s a conveyor belt of arseholes?

Ireland has 4 competitors at the Winter Olympics, all in skiing. which is awesome because Ireland has no snow or mountains. our main winter sports are drinking, singing Fairytale of New York & spreading respiratory illnesses.
