Two panel meme featuring Joey from Friends. He is seated, with one elbow over the back of a chair and the other on a table. The top picture has Joey looking pleasantly smug. The bottom picture has Joey wide eyed with sudden alarmed realization. The top panel has the text: "Me watching the Matrix in 1999 when Morpheus tells Neo that the peak of human civilization was the end of the 20th Century and everything went downhill in the 21st Century after weaponizing A.I." The bottom panel has the text: "Me watching the Matrix in 2026 when Morpheus tells Neo that the peak of human civilization was the end of the 20th Century and everything went downhill in the 21st Century after weaponizing A.I."

"Everything is fine..."

Two cats have decided to fight each other whilst literally inside the hedge in my front garden. Basically the hedge is growling and shaking which is quite the sight first thing in the morning.

Does this mean we can now talk about the Epstein files?

Many trans people I know are both trans and gay. It isn’t an either/or situation.

Our DM brought out bigs of snacking pickles and I have so many questions starting with why?

Many who believe the UK is under Sharia law have moved to Dubai which actually is under Sharia law. The irony is delicious.

Playing a new (to me) RPG called Doomsong. Heavy on the medieval horror vibes.

It’s actually FEWER Misérables

Important to remember that the people most enthusiastic about bombing Iran are almost always the people most hateful towards refugees.

Fortunately, my muscles like to voice their displeasure the following day rather than straight after a gym session. I use Voltarol on my sore muscles as well as a little hand massage ball which tends to do the trick.

Trump has unleashed something so insane and it's hard to see where this ends,

I went last night and some of my muscles are letting me know about their displeasure about this.

AUD$500. It would be AUD$400 if I was based in Australia.

Typical Farage behaviour. Complain bitterly about something but then don't do anything whatsoever to find a resolution.

Not really liking the national broadcaster floating the idea that protests should be banned. I'm expecting this to become a Reform and Tory talking point in the coming hours/days.

Definitely giving me Dedra Meero from Andor vibes.

I think you are right here. Starmer is doing a fairly good job when it comes to international politics/events especially when it comes to working with European allies. I think we would all be happier if he focused solely on this and left governing the UK to someone else.

A bunny on a skateboard rolls down a homemade ramp, in a backyard, about to go off a jump. Their friends also cheer them on on either side of the ramp.

Daily bunny no.3246 is about to break their record

This is nothing. Just send Mahmood out again to announce some more anti-refugee policies and you can easily find your way to fifth place.

Greens overtake Labour in sensational poll The Greens have polled higher than Labour in the latest poll by YouGov, which puts them only two points off Reform UK and five ahead of the governing party.

"Of those who voted Labour [in 2024], just 37% would vote Labour again".
Read that again to absorb the full, astonishing weight of what it means.
Starmer, Reeves and co have burnt their house down.

Whilst it is just one poll, this does make me happy. I hope Labour soon wake up to themselves and realise that no one wants the Reform-lite policies that they are currently pushing.

Definitely had an obsession with spontaneous human combustion in the late 80s and early 90s. In fact I remember giving a speech on it in English class for one of those public speaking assignments.

You have to wonder if Starmer is at all interested in domestic politics.

"We called London a war zone and moved to Dubai by mistake"

Refugees a poem by Brian Bilston. They have no need of our help So do not tell me These haggard faces could belong to you or me Should life have dealt a different hand We need to see them for who they really are Chancers and scroungers Layabouts and loungers With bombs up their sleeves Cut-throats and thieves They are not Welcome here We should make them Go back to where they came from They cannot Share our food Share our homes Share our countries Instead let us Build a wall to keep them out It is not okay to say These are people just like us A place should only belong to those who are born there Do not be so stupid to think that The world can be looked at another way (now read from bottom to top)

All those Aussies, Kiwis and Canadians that come over to the UK and keep voting in our elections. Oh, you are not talking about those Commonwealth voters, are you?
