"'So-called innocent Palestinians'? 17,000 Palestinian children were killed. Were they not innocent?"

A shocking Jubilee exchange between me & a pro-Israeli Iranian-American Batman villain. I asked him a simple Q, FIVE times. Clip below.

Ice cream truck funerals apparently produce the most horror movie ass sound you can hear in real life

“Stop it!” — Donald Trump.

Only ever a sideshow of course, but both hosts awarded the Fifa men’s World Cup at that horrible doom-laden show in December 2010 are now dropping and dodging bombs. War plus the shooting

Desperate attempt by DAZN commentator to ramp up the tension as the camera inconveniently pans around a mostly empty stadium.

"The energy is building...You don't get <this> every weekend in Europe, do you, Michael Brown?"

Nope. People usually turn up to our games.

Exactly.

Awful club, very decent man.

Luis Enrique’s greatest moment is still D/M/F (R/L/C)

You can’t change anything if you’re not in power, they said. Then they got themselves into power and changed into the party they had replaced.

Who the hell sleeps in front of the media??

Ronaldo, Collina and Totti ✨

VISUAL REPRESENTATION OF TENSION AT A FOOTBALL MATCH 🫣

Court sketch of Gerard Depardieu looking like a sack of shit.

I trust we’ve all seen the magnificent court sketch of Gerard Depardieu now?

Poster from the Labour government stating that the Conservative Party presided over a broken immigration system and Labour is here to fix it by taking control of its borders. There is a picture of the cliffs of Dover to imply that immigrants are invading the UK via its shores.

A Labour MP posted this image, the direct descendant of UKIP’s Brexit “Breaking Point” immigration poster, and then disabled the replies and quote tweets. Its only value is as a landmark for the moment that this government fully took its mask off and embraced pure xenophobia.

No need to worry we have the poetry of Wayne Rooney to look forward to at full time.

The whistling sound from a crowd in Italy is a different pitch. Turkey has its moments too. But San Siro whistles rolling down from those stands are specially terrifying.

It’s games like this that make me question why on earth someone wouldn’t like football

Martin Brundle congratulating Conor Benn on losing LOL #F1 #MiamiF1

this is a level of sycophancy unconceivable even to the most crawling of courtiers in the past. genuine advancement in asslicking technology. remember where you were at this moment.

Screenshot of a headline saying uk toxic immigration rhetoric & visa fees are putting off top cancer researchers

Screenshot of a headline explaining uk govt plans to cut immigration have been derailed by protest from universities objecting to land to cut graduate student rights

Screenshot of headline saying Macron is urging US academic to come to France

Screenshot of headline saying Borway has launched a new scheme to attract US academics

Trump’s repression of free speech & disappearing of foreign students from campuses push academics to look for options elsewhere.

Europe’s reaction? Come here!

UK meanwhile? Hiking fees & cutting foreign student rights to make UK less attractive cos all that matters is lower immigration numbers 🙄

Thanks, Biden. You invented homelessness in America.

My god. He goes in like Rod Stewart during a cup draw.

Charities warn 4,800,000 children will be in poverty by 2029 if the two-child benefit cap stays.

A Labour government increasing record child poverty isn’t just cruel — it’s political suicide.

Time to scrap the cap, tax the super-rich and choose children — not austerity.

The ground for fascism isn't going to prepare itself.

it's wrong that The Righteous Gemstones is ending. it should be a daily soap that runs for 50 years. monthlong story arcs set in the sinful enclave of Pigeon Forge, TN

Beautiful. Like an anxiety dream in which your idol tells you that you suck, but real and directed at one of the world’s worst people

"The swooshing grass works literally as a setting, and for the atmosphere of the place, but it’s also kind of a brilliant metaphor. You have this very strange dynamic between the mother and the daughter..."

If you still believe Hamas, not Netanyahu, is the block on a hostage deal and ceasefire agreement then you are either the dumbest person in the world, or you have never read a word published in the Israeli press, or… both.
