It was advertised as a "No Tyrants" protest here in Britain.

Yeah, yeah. I know. America is important. But I'm so fucking sick of it absolutely dominating the UK news cycle. I get it. You voted in a turd and now you're swimming in fascist shit. But we have our own rightwing wanklord problems that need more national coverage.

I thought The Purge had started.
I should probably leave this blood-stained coffee shop.
Pronto...

You look too youthful. Nobody expects you to have dribbled over Bowie all that time ago - unless you fangirl over it unexpectedly.

If you're British then just enjoy this. I met these people. They're nice.

tbf Barbie's hair is cheap, very unconditioned, and entirely made of plastic. So I wouldn't put yourself down. Ask your wife to stroke it and see if she thinks it's cheap ?

There is a long history of protest in the UK which , over time, has changed the position of the Government.
As the UK is actively arming, and supporting the Israeli government with intelligence in it's genocide - Britain *does* have influence in this.

There is a defence in Law for someone committing a crime, in order to prevent a greater crime.
Recent legal measures by the Government restrict this right.
There is a genocide happening in Palestine. Action is neccessary.

OK so feeling slightly apprehensive about this, which I suppose is kind of the point. This is an attempt at a progressive view on masculinity and on men getting laid. God help me. iandunt.substack.com/p/how-to-be-...
How to be a man
The right story narrative about male attractiveness is grounded in Social Darwinism and free market economics. Can progressives tell a better story?

But if you support Trump, you're supporting fascism.
And that's just a fucking fact.
Also: I was telling the landlady - who's a mate - about a girl I have a massive crush on, and that's a far more interesting conversation than some fuckwit trying to justify concentration camps and fucking fascism...

I am so fed up with the US going insane.
Why should I have to have pointless conversations with random people in the pub like this ?
"You're making assumptions about what I believe."
No, I don't give a shit what you believe.
If you support Trump, you're a fascist.
Believe what you want. /1

Quite right. Who on Earth (owning right-wing media) wants to hear about peace, equality and extractive rentier end-capitalism ?
Stupid thing to keep bringing up...

🧵 Second quarter FEC reports were released last week!

We have the most money in this race, an average donation of $32, and likely more in-District donors than the rest of the field combined.

Here’s what's in those reports, why we're celebrating, and why we can't let up in our voter outreach:

Nobody has created an algorithmic filter which removes unusual opinions from my "random shit on trains" feed.
I know more about current eyeliner trends and marketing fluctuations in the grocery business than any man my age and fighting weight should expect to..
Also I feel sad for Natasha Rostova.
