A "pro-Palestine' march passes me in Bath. Perhaps they're good people, I think to myself. The hippyish Quakers I remember from, say, being a member of Bath CND in the 80s. They're not *necessarily* antisemites, I say. So I check out their X feed. And it's awful.

No idea if you’re spoofing anyone in particular, but they deserve it.

Did u know english people have food that is, in ther opinion of posts I am copying, ver badd and smelle. Plz lak and scribe

Obligatory toilet trading between courses.

Happy Birthday Leonard Cohen RS

Massive Attack showing, apart from anything else, that they have very little idea of what it's actually like to be under a massive attack

I’ve liked him for quite a while. The One I Love is a candidate for Best Springsteen Song Not By Springsteen.

This sounds more like David Gray.

In my new role as a Your Party Enjoyer I must inform you there are now the following factions:
> Democratic Bloc (Mish Rahman etc.)
> Zarah Sultana (affiliates TBD)
> Our Party (Owen Jones a fan)
> Jeremy Corbyn and his payroll
> The Gaza Independents (you'd better believe they're a faction)

Obligatory #TOTP

Worth remembering that when Corbyn was Labour leader he managed to simultaneously be endorsed and denounced by two different versions of UB40.

not an exaggeration to say I am WEEPING with laughter at this reply from someone who hadn't seen that Robert Redford died today

can I interest you in the all-Ed Davey political compass

Every major politician from both parties has condemned it unconditionally. Of course I’m not sure I believe all of them but at least they tried.

Thought I'd just pop back from my general boredom with social media to see how 'The Nice Place' is reacting to the news of the murder of a 31 year old father of 2.

Yeah, maybe shouldn't have bothered....

I’m going to go out on a limb and say that murder is bad, even when someone you vehemently disagree with is the one who is murdered.

We’re not talking about a dictator or a terrorist here. Having abhorrent views isn’t a reason why anyone should die.

I haven’t seen anyone celebrating it, yet, because I don’t follow scum. AFAIK. I have seen more attempts at ‘context’ than I have on the Literal Hitler Site, and frankly, if you recognise yourself in that description, have a word with yourself.

I thought this was about drones at first. Maybe it is.

He pivots in light and in shadow and he is a great berk. He never shuts up, the KC. He is pivoting, pivoting. He says that he will never stfu.

“I’m sorry Dave, I’m afraid I can’t quite make that out.”

“I DON’T KNOW, YOU COULDN’T BLOODY HEAR ANYTHING”

Fancy seeing you here

I don’t think we knew the queasy details, which I presume they thought would stay hidden. (Yum, yum!)

I’d have loved to have both of you at the pub quiz I ran a couple of years ago. Preferably on the same team, so I could call the police and clock off early.

Prince Yusupov could have bought Sgt. Pepper on release day, gone to see Hendrix play the title track live three days later, and joined the telecast for All You Need is Love in June. Maybe he did, being an adventurous sort and all.

I love how it looks like it’s just called DROOD, like an origin movie. Drood Debuts. Edwin Emerges.

Good grief, so it was!

when you find out you're woke

Just noticed Tilly’s OP was yesterday! I can’t see anything over on the other place.
