What kind of world do we live in where the elected leader of the world’s biggest superpower invades other countries at will and also thinks it’s ok to wear a fucking baseball cap when he’s telling everyone about it

Hoping to pass this on to my nearly adult son

Well this is totally normal. Have you tried turning it off and back on again?

Going home shortly with work bag in hand

Not this decade thankfully, but i see a load of 20–somethings i work with doing it every week. It’s weird how utterly unaware of the reality of life in a big city they are. I guess the reality of London 25 years ago was very different but it doesn’t mean it doesn’t exist anymore

Things i’ve learned after nearly 30 years living in London: Always keep your keys in your pocket, not your work bag. If you can’t do that because you wear a suit, get a new job. Also never put letters in your work bag, thinking “i’ll read that tomorrow.”.

Currently eating supermarket sushi with a fork, if anyone’s interested in how my day’s going

Had forgotten about this until i opened Bluesky a minute ago and now it’s started again ffs. Quite possibly up there with some of the worst music ever committed to tape.

Had the misfortune of hearing M-People’s One Night in Heaven earlier and now can’t get it out of my head. Fucking bastards.

I imagine Labour could possibly win the next election if they made it about Brexit and committed to rejoining the EU without another referendum. It’s probably the only tactic which could save them so of course they won’t do it.

Wull they though?

Can’t believe that guy is wearing sunglasses when meeting a former Tory Prime Ministerial candidate. So disrespectful

They’ll be fine. One of my good mates is a season ticket holder. Best night of their year.

Here’s a question: Why don’t we all call it Hool, like wool, instead of Hull like skull?

Wonder how pissed off that hair lad is this evening. Still, another 12 games left before next season kicks off.

Hearing Michela Strachan wanging on about how great and fun and CRAZY her career has been is not what I want to hear when I’ve been wide awake since 3am

Kristi Noem (2025- ) | Miller Center

Highly surprising that top Republicans have described Kristi Noem as “amateurish”, particularly when you look at her background: millercenter.org/kristi-noem-...

After Suella Braverman's defection, 12.5% of Reform UK MPs have been photographed stepping on a guide dog

And big shout to the purported followers of our lord Jesus Christ who will be arguing Alex Pretti was asking to be executed by a fascist militia for legally carrying a firearm to a constitutionally protected peaceful protest.

Shout out to all the Minnesotan Republicans saying “i didn’t vote for this”. Er, yes you did.

Exactly what we need to do

Shot, not shit. But it is shit, regardless.

Also pistol whipped before being shit. Fuck this.

Have been staying off social media and trying not to watch the news because it stresses me out. Fuck that. Don’t stay silent. Silence is how this all happens. We’ve been here before.

I’m fucking angry

America was a joke in 2003 with GWB but to see it decline so quickly over 20 years is genuinely upsetting. Had things not seemed to be going downhill so quickly, I could have moved my kids to Minneapolis two years ago. I have love for the city and the country. No fucking kings.

There are millions of people living in this city who just want to go about their daily business without being terrorised by the state and seeing their friends and neighbours beaten, arrested, and killed for fucking theatre which supports the right wing narrative.

Whilst it’s all going to shit in Minneapolis you should listen to this fantastic song and watch this fantastic video by my dear friend who is there right now watching it all unravel on his front doorstep. Fuck ICE. Fuck Trump. God bless America. youtu.be/7YMWZAL5krU?...

Here’s another hot take: Oasis - lots of fun but a dreadful band in general. Listen to Wonderwall again and try not to cringe.

Just watched Prince destroying the Brit Awards, 2006 and the gaggle of no-marks the camera pans to neatly summarise what a cultural tundra those years were: Joss Stone, K-T Tunstall, Will Young. Tbf Stoney could sing a bit
