Betamax?

I was ordering an uber yesterday when I decided to delay it for 15 minutes rather than order it for "right now". Immediate pick up at 9:05am was quoted as a range from $11 to $20 for a 5 minute drive. The same trip with a pickup at 9:20 was quoted as costing a range from $31 to $40.
WTAF Uber?!

I’m really looking forward to opening Burnie’s first ever LGBTIQA film festival on Saturday at 3pm at the Burnie Arts Centre. There’s still a few tickets left. Hope to see you there.

Shun the knife! 😆

How do we know it was Bin Laden? He wasn't allowed his day in court. Extrajudicial killing is not a guilty verdict, it's what happens when the truth must never come out.

That made me lol irl.

You know that drummer, from that band? You know the one.

I heard he is a paradiddler!

At the risk of missing the point, I have to note that his first premise is untrue (shock horror!).
Apparently until quite recently the UK has been paying the US substantial annual compensation payments for giving up slavery. The slave owners and their descendants were compensated!

It doesn't make any difference whether any of the girls said no or not. Minors cannot give consent, by definition.
That said, many groomers can expertly create an illusion of choice and consent that elicits a "yes". Imagine the unnecessary guilt that induced later in some of the victims. Awful.

Wherever there is fraud, MAGA will be there…usually ahead of time! That's dedication.

...to the whims of an insane despotic ruler on the other side of the world. Sadly, the prevailing attitude amongst world leaders seems to be to avoid becoming the Orange Lunatic's enemy at any cost.

...demoted the USA to the status of Rogue Nation, alongside the likes of North Korea and Russia. The guide rails of US democracy turned out to only be glued on cardboard, unable to withstand the storm.
Countries like mine, with an actual King 👑, are stuck in treaties like #AUKUS binding us to the

Happy January 6th to all. The violent insurrectionists have been freed, their leader has taken the White House and has started the process of forcibly annexing neighbouring countries, while openly taking orders,or at least guidance, from Putin. The most profitable presidency in history has ...

Once year, peeking his head out from the Bunker into it’s ballroom attic, to accept gifts and bribes.

“…WE are doing the inauguration in that building”, he says!
WE???!!!

Quite ahead of their time, for conservatives, Ill give them that.

My Xmas thought for 2025…

If Jojo Siwa is from the Americas, shouldn’t it be pronounced “Hoho”?

🤣 Revenge of the birds!

Fair point. That was indeed quite the armada.

Map of Venezuela and surrounds.

It is also nonsensical! The biggest armada in South American history? Is that a thing? And how can a collection of ships completely surround a nation with one coast on the North and no others? I can just imagine Trump and Hegseth having troops carry naval boats across mountain ranges etc.

The older I get, the more my politics mature from childish, naïve beliefs like "the world is complicated and leaders have to make hard decisions" to more serious, adult principles like "hurting people is bad and helping people is good."

The skin on RFK Jr’s face makes him look like someone who accepted a cup of tea from Putin.

IQ has it’s uses but this isn’t one of them. The average IQ of every and any country is 100. IQ is scaled around a mean average of 100, by definition.

Did you know that Trump is actually a portmanteau of 'trolling chump'?
The authentic version of his paternal family name is Drumpf, commonly recognised as an ancient German portmanteau of 'dropkicked lump'.

Donald Trump was very happy with how things went with his Big Beautiful Bill on the floor of the House and the Senate.
Is there no political venue in Washington Bubba hasn't marked sexually?😁

I realise it's just abbreviation for brown but those BROs are so distracting.
Like, "Bro, his hair...and omg BRO, his eyes!"👀🤣

As you internalise the reality that there may well be photos of Donald Lewinsky Trump going down on Slick Willy Clinton, spare a thought for Mike Johnson, who must be feelinbg such a wide range of conflicting emotions, right now. Lol.

That editor missed lunch coming up with that headline!
