in the style of Rodney Dangerfield that makes Elon laugh until he cries.
He will die alone, bloated and forgotten, surrounded by small vials of other people's bodily fluids, high above the dying planet.
A footnote to the Age of Idiocy.

In ten years time Elon Musk will live in a hermetically sealed penthouse apartment, too obese to leave even if he wanted to.
His only companion Trump's brain in a jar, hooked up to a voice box, that makes small screeching noises every 42 seconds and occasionally tells jokes

If you defend this or try and explain this away, youโ€™re a monster and I donโ€™t know how you sleep at night.

If ever there was a symptom of a nation's stark decline, it's having a deranged conspiracy-addled freak like RFK Jr. in charge of your health policy, or anywhere near government.
The Trump regime really is the last gasp of weird old white guys clinging to power, privilege and the past.

I am really saddened by the level of vitriol and hatred being directed toward the trans community.

We are losing our common humanity. How hard is it to treat people with kindness and respect?

Trans people are human beings โ€” and they deserve to live in dignity like anyone else.

Oh yeah it's Good Friday, when all the right-wing fake Christians who've spent the rest of the year making the lives of the poor, the sick, the disabled, the marginalized and the desperate as miserable as possible tell us how much they love Jesus. #HappyEaster

It's a shame Gore Vidal isn't around today, you can only imagine what he would make of America's latest nosedive into corruption and self-destruction.
He would destroy Trump and his grotesque gallery of freaks with one elegant, devastating paragraph and a raised eyebrow.

Neoliberalism is the road to fascism. Every tool that Trump is using was gifted to him by Democrats.

Your bills are going up because this government would rather protect the profits of a few corporations than the livelihoods of millions of ordinary people.

End this outrageous rip-off, and take water and energy into public ownership now.

Big Banks Quietly Prepare for Catastrophic Warming Morgan Stanley, JPMorgan and an international banking group have quietly concluded that climate change will likely exceed the Paris Agreement's 2 degree goal and are examining how to maintain profits

Wall Street is admitting that human extinction is likely, and instead of trying to stop it, their primary concern is maintaining their profits.

"We now expect a 3ยฐC world," Morgan Stanley analysts wrote earlier this month, citing "recent setbacks to global decarbonization efforts."

Perhaps the CIA should undermine, then engineer the overthrow of the #Trump administration and replace it with something more sympathetic to American interests. #TrumpTariffs #LiberationDay #TrumpRecession

Starmer "likes and respects" Trump, apparently.
If you like and respect a racist sexual predator and wannabe fascist dictator, then your moral compass isn't just broken, it's smashed to pieces.

Criticising Zelenskyy for not crawling up Trump's rectum like Starmer is to make virtues of spinelessness and cowardice.

Their shitty system died in '08, and they'd no Plan B.
So now it shuffles on like a rotting zombie, fucking everyone's lives more and more.

Per Dr Atul Gawande, ex USAID: โ€œAll malaria supplies protecting 53 million people, mostly children, including bed nets, diagnostics, preventive drugs, and treatments โ€“ terminated.โ€

There are no words that sufficiently describe this level of cruelty and sadism.

Finally got round to watching The Banshees of Inisherin last night, and what a joy it was.
Like an episode of Father Ted written by Ingmar Bergman, it's in turn funny, moving and horrifying with amazing performances from Colin Farrell and Barry Keoghan.
Existential despair never looked this good.

It must also really sting that "Dear Stephen" by the Manics is effortlessly better than anything Morrissey has produced in the last 25 years. ๐ŸŽง

People are always like, โ€œyou gotta be nice.โ€

Nice donโ€™t do shit.
Nice gets you no where.
Nice is what the rich want, as they act like psychopathic murderers and explorers.

Nice didnโ€™t get them where they are and it wonโ€™t get you anywhere either.

Nice is compliance with fascism.

1. Trump nominates bizarre/sinister/batshit/wholly unsuitable cronies for top government positions.

2. They appear before a committee of Senators who establish beyond doubt that the nominees are bizarre/sinister/ batshit and wholly unsuitable for top government positions.

3. Cronies are appointed.

screenshot of a facebook ad for the labour party. 

the post says: the labour government is securing our borders!

it contains a screenshot, a mock-up of a fake messenger conversation between two ppl. 

A: Did you hear what Labour are doing about illegal migration?

B: Hm, no?? Surely gonna be tough to clean up the mess the Tories made. 

A: They've already done a lot!
They've removed more people with no right to be here than in any year since 2018!

B: That's actually really interesting.

A: They've also set up a Border Security Command and invested heavily in tech and policing to stop the boat gangs exploiting people!

B: Wow, looks like they've hit the ground running!*.

Never mind Canada, if you watch BBC News you'd certainly think the UK was the 51st state.
Their rolling news is obsessed with American politics and breathlessly reports every fart and belch from the unflushable orange turd.
I wouldn't mind, but the actual reporting is so basic and unquestioning.

UK to reject 'dangerous journey' refugees citizenship The Home Office change has been condemned by the Refugee Council and some Labour backbench MPs.

Yet more performative cruelty. This means someone who fled for their life 25 yrs ago, got refugee status in the UK, and has been part of their community here ever since - maybe married, had kids, started a business - can never be a citizen. Thatโ€™s not right.

It is always morally right to welcome and care for human beings escaping conflict and persecution, whoever they are or wherever they are from.
This is basic humanity.

Trump thinks he's making America look strong and impressive on the world stage.
In reality, the notion that the US is a declining, hopelessly divided nation facing political crisis and run by a swaggering old mob boss with borderline dementia is being reinforced more strongly every day.
