Say what you want about the arc, but I got a twofer, Scarlet Spider and Kaine,
Great 90s designs.

Lads, please, the circus music is at an intolerable volume.

I donโ€™t know if the Green Ranger was the badass because he looked so cool or he looked so cool because he was a badass.

P.S. The White Ranger, while having that cool black vest, is nowhere near as boss.

The Trump/Mamdani meeting is bizarre. I think the people pointing out Trump must like him are right.
My wife asked why it bothered me so much and half way into saying they are ideologically, diametrically opposed I realised Trump would need beliefs more complex than โ€œme, me, meโ€ for that to be true

Ever get that restlessness when youโ€™re not quite sure what you want to read?
Hate it.

Instead of Heating or Eating, this year I want Heating or Beating. As in, if utilities arenโ€™t more affordable, we should get to beat energy execs with football boots until it is.

Some people are just stupid and hateful and are racist. Iโ€™m not saying everyone has โ€œlegitimate economic concernsโ€ but itโ€™s much harder for racists to convince little England migrants are making things worse if their material conditions are actually improving.

It seems so obvious that while all the racists would hate for us to go back, the economic boom of rejoining would actually make people less racist.

Austerity delivered Brexit. Brexit is delivering the far right.

The thing they have in common is they have made people poorer.

But are they reading things on screens rather than in print?
Or is genuinely just not interacting with words?

My wife dropped off Pets at my kidโ€™s school yesterday and the Head said โ€œthis is great. We have loads of kids who donโ€™t like readingโ€.

So if you felt a sudden disturbance in the force yesterday morning, it was that.

Letโ€™s hope that BBC Panorama edit seen by zero people in the States doesnโ€™t give Americans the mistaken impression that their President who today called for Democrats to be hanged incites violence.

"The richest man in the world built a robot to tell people he's cool" is the saddest, most bulliable fucking Twilight Zone thing in the world. You fucking LOSER. All that money and not a fucking _whiff_ of charisma. Start giving yourself a wedgie, you fucking dork, it'll take me time to get there.

For those investing in rakes, be aware that bubble will burst once this clown isn't allowed to propose policy

I reckon the Epstein stuff will come out and nothing will be incriminating for Trump until people work out they have been redacted, edited and just deleted, which will look even shadier than the black pit it already is.

a man in a suit and tie is making a funny face while sitting in front of a window . Alt: Michael Scott holding back tears and smiling.

Umming and ahing about what to do with my Pets Tell Tales comps.

Talked myself out of giving one to my daughterโ€™s school because it seems pushy, would they event want it, who do speak to etc. The usual imposter syndrome excuses.

Suddenly my daughter takes a copy and says โ€œBut itโ€™s a good book.โ€

My wife has just had to explain why a fire fighter and cop are in space on 911 because I nodded off last night and I honestly feel like Iโ€™m having a fever dream.
