Bloody hell - and in breaking news, The Beatles have realised a new singleโ€ฆ๐Ÿ˜ณ

Working people have been too easily seduced by empty promises and media lies

And while I definitely lean towards labor and green politics, there are dickheads in every party who play dickhead games

One thing that social media has done for us is reveal just how many completely shitty people there are - I used to just imagine it, but didnโ€™t have the mind numbing consistent reminders and evidence๐Ÿ™„

When youโ€™re employed to pontificate, itโ€™s an easy step to assume that youโ€™re always right - itโ€™s a common failing of those who hold the floor. Marr is not familiar with having to change his mind

Sounds very much like the aesthetic promoted by a failed art student in the 1930s

Pop one in the bath and see if she likes it. I once had a cat that was obsessed

The whole 24/7 news cycle/outrage bait /adversarial system is failing us. The inevitable outcome is crap legislation

Thereโ€™s heaps of problems with this, but in the absence of any oversight from social media owners, we donโ€™t have many options๐Ÿ˜ข

The size is more like Docklands though. And Caesar had good seats on the half forward flank๐Ÿ˜

He can choose to do it when heโ€™s no longer your full responsibility. He knows your reasons, he can mull them over for a few years. His anger is symbolic and I think weโ€™ve all experienced those impasses at that age. Hang tough IMO

At the moment, this is the last distraction anyone needs. Climate, integrity, fascism - all need to be dealt with first before giving the nutters a screech platform in the media. No thanks ๐Ÿ˜ก

No, Labor, this is not your intent at all - this is tricky and disingenuous ๐Ÿ˜ก

Chicago priest Father Michael Pfleger: "The state of emergency is in AMERICA, not Chicago. It's birthed from this president and his admin's reign of terror."

Itโ€™s saying they really truly actually want a war. It excites them and years of fear being stoked by politicians and the media has driven them to fever pitch. I think it will explode very soon๐Ÿ˜ญ

Van Hollen: I will just say that anybody who thinks we're on the way to authoritarianism is wrong. We are there

The richest man on earth owns X.

The second richest man on earth is about to be a major owner of TikTok.

The third richest man owns Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp.

The fourth richest man owns The Washington Post.

See the problem here?

What happens next though? When they become the dog that catches the car itโ€™s chasing and doesnโ€™t know what to do with it? Theyโ€™ll never stop hating and feeling wronged - where does all that fetid bile end up being directed towards?

Thanks Denise. I donโ€™t always click through to all of them, but just seeing the trends in the headlines is often enough. Counterbalances my current strange algorithms

Trouble is, if she left now sheโ€™d probably end up out a window or drinking tea. Itโ€™s a bit late at this stage even if she wanted to - which I doubt anyway

A grim reminder: these people will never be satisfied. Thereโ€™s no point at which they will say โ€œweโ€™ve won, letโ€™s enjoy life.โ€ They will always be looking for someone else to punish, to revile, to dehumanize. Theyโ€™re empty without that.
