We're GRUMPY because political parties which SHOULD be fighting for us have betrayed us. (Also: my teeth hurt!) We're Old because we're old. We're Lefties because to be anything else would make us vomit.
(Starmer and Biden/Harris admirers: Go soak your heads! You are NOT Leftists! Zionists and arseholes who - during a Dem-backed GENOCIDE - said "Trump would have been even worse!" or even "Enjoy the camps!": FUCK OFF! "The lesser of two evils" is... [checks notes]... STILL EVIL!
"NEVER again!" applies to EVERYONE!](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:4jmt42zmpu4lclvy5ccgofah/bafkreifiosyz6vdoxf7j4l7pjbsp7vuy77sjbufikclgum7rp5jd25qr7i@jpeg)
Do NOT follow me if you're an admirer of Starmer, von der Leyen, Scholz, Biden, and/or Harris. They all support a GENOCIDAL Israel... and ALL helped pave the way for Trump 2.0
If you say "At least they're not as bad as Tories!", " #BlueCrew", or "Blue Wave"... FUCK OFF! You're part of the problem.

The overlooked issue of domestic violence against elderly women
Among all women killed by their partners in France in 2024, 26% were over the age of 70, a figure that is on the rise. Yet, the murders of these women and the possible abuse that preceded them are poorly documented.
