No. Anywhere in Europe will be fine.

We have all that in the places MAGA hates.

They're called Europe and Canada.

The Irish Times?

I was buying it since I was 16 but then it became a comic, so I stopped.

You might as well ask what the Beano's view is on the US and Europe.

Management might have learned.

But uneducated thugs will always be uneducated thugs.

Regardless of how despicable everyone might find the Guthrie kidnap, Trump still doesn't have the power to impose a death sentence on anyone.

But that's why he's using the outrage.

He imagines he's that medieval king who can have people beheaded.

I tend to jot down notes, but sometimes I lose the little book and find it years later, with no idea what was going on.

My latest find is this:

"Sailor charged with possession of counterfeit hair-straighteners".

Please use the proper title. Blessed Maria of Iona.

Look at these figures a different way.

USA military spending is about 50 times as much per citizen as the rest of the world.

JFC, cut that shit in half and youโ€™ve eradicated hunger, provided healthcare for all and made education free for all Americans. What the fuck are we doing?

Or bad shit might happen after you pray but you can continue praying until good shit happens.

Which it will eventually, even if it isn't the good shit you were praying for.

Then you can also praise your merciful deity for giving you a break from the bad shit.

That's a winning system.

14.02.2026 16:07 โ€” ๐Ÿ‘ 1    ๐Ÿ” 0    ๐Ÿ’ฌ 0    ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

That means your invisible deity of choice has a plan that's bigger than you can comprehend and in due course the meaning will be revealed.

So pray.

Good shit might happen after you pray and then you can give credit to your deity.

When something good happens after you pray, you've won the god lottery. The deity heard your prayers. Praise your deity.

But don't despair if the bad stuff keeps happening.

Prayer is important and here's why.

As we all know, bad things happen every single day and so do good things.

Now, if you pray to your invisible deity of choice, you must do it all the time or this one weird trick won't work.

I keep seeing this word "un-American" and it makes no sense to me.

Most of us are not American.

By definition, 95% of the world's population is un-American.

Stephen Yaxley-Lennon, an unvetted male of fighting age, has migrated from his home country to escape death threats and now seeks asylum in a safer country.

Is that more or less what he's saying?

No room for Jews, Muslims, Hindus or atheists in Rubio's deranged vision of a white Christian Europe.

Also, Trump did not write this.

Neither did Stephen Miller or any other member of Trump's illiterate, uneducated cabinet.

The person who wrote this didn't say Orban.

They said Orbรกn.

That's Gorka.

Orbรกn will shortly be booted out of government in the next Hungarian elections.

Maybe someone should tell Trump.

Tick tock.

If the odious Viktor ร“rban loses power in Hungary, it will be for many different and complex reasons.

Including a hat-trick by Troy Parrott.

Who knew?

If non-citizens don't vote, why do ICE need to be near polling stations?

I would trash him for having been an addict.

Why?

He's using that fact to weaponise and monetise anti-science bullshit for his own financial and political advantage.

If he got clean and sober, good for him.

If he got clean and sober, and went on to use it as his selling point, then fuck him.
