Thanks, but you may want to unfollow. This is a very, very strange a/c. Summary below.

Or maybe not.

I'm sure, although, tbf, the UK disappeared as a serious military power a long time ago! Blowing billions on ineffective and vulnerable aircraft carriers is not the sign of a brilliant defence strategy! Ukraine has changed the world.

I disagree. In a true democracy the people don't need to take to the streets to complain about the actions of the government. This is what a yearning for democracy looks like. Hopefully the USA will come out of this with a system which gives the people real control over their government. #NoKings

On the bright side, she clearly supports a United Ireland, and independence for Scotland, Wales and Cornwall, and probably bits of England, as that's the only way she'll get a 'culturally coherent' population in parts of England.

This is impressive. So, will Trump and all his henchpeople be in jail on Monday, then?

She should be forced to live on a PROPER English diet

Lasagne and pizza are okay 'cos they came over with the Romans, who were basically English obvs. Oh, and larks-tongues and dormice.

Yes, well, that IS a common side-effect. But preferable to the even more common side effect:

This is why the gods* invented cat-flaps

Line drawing of the goddess Freya, depicted as an attractive woman in rather skimpy (and thus pointless) armour, with a large sword that doesn't correspond with her musculature, and her two cats. Original author unknown.

It's what we do with blokes who infiltrate our peaceful village. Unless they bring potatoes*. And/or lots of groats

No, let's be nice to them. They're welcome to go & live in a hollow in a tree-trunk in the Big Scary Forest and forage for sustenance

* I hope you've brought enough for everybody!!!

True. But, hang on, don't they have Space Karen's Computer Genius teenage whizz-kids working for them?

Oh no, someone had a drug-fuelled tantrum, didn't they?

You'd have thought they'd use a gov domain rather than bsky.social

1. Suggest M'Lady B cook a 3 course dinner
2. Then you can transfer stuff from the fridge to the icy stare that produces, and there'll be room for the leftovers.

I have a vague memory of visiting a museum in an old packing place in Mousehole(?) I think. Probably 25 years ago.

I never knew that pilchards were the same thing.

They make sardines in a factory? I thought they hauled them out of the sea in nets? Modern technology, eh?
