There are no penguins in Greenland

As you were

So….Vote Reform & get:

A new ice age

Mountains in SE England

The UK moved to the southern hemisphere so penguins don’t have to relocate

Penguins with elbows

The ability to walk & not leave footprints

And Idiots in charge

Is this about the Gulf Stream collapsing?

I’m feeling pedantic (sorry!) over some memes I’ve seen

Penguins are in the South

Polar bears in the North

Trump won’t meet Penguins in Greenland. Not gonna happen.

Which is good because the Polar bears that are there, are infinitely more likely to eat him 👍👌🤞

Hope the polar bear is hungry

At least the stench of fag ash surrounding him makes him easier to avoid at the event

Also…Isn’t he meant to hate Davos? I thought it was full of globalists with a woke agenda 🤷‍♀️
OMG what an egotistical dick❗️🤣

Farage on X posted pictures saying “Delivering my message to Davos: Things are about to change in Britain”

Imagine his photographer

So Mark Rutte said some nice things to him, explained what NATO will do if USA is attacked, & now Rutte is a good guy & the tariffs are dropped (for now)

I know it’s galling to see people butter him up and lay it on thick- but Rutte did the right thing

It might not last- but delay is useful
Trump: "Based upon a very productive meeting I had with Mark Rutte, we have formed the framework of a future deal with respect to Greenland and, in fact, the entire Arctic Region. This solution, if consummated, will be a great one... Based upon this understanding, I will not be imposing the Tariffs"

This is horrific

It’s too easy for vulnerable children and adults to fall through the cracks with social & health care

It was too easy in the 1990’s and it is still too easy

There is always That Moment when some seemingly eternal cultural touchstone falls off the radar and everyone Of An Age feels slightly unmoored. Don't worry, 30 years from now the kids will never have heard of K-Pop Demon Hunters and a bunch of Gen Alpha middle managers will be shocked and outraged
Mentioned AOL here last week and some of the younger (25ish) staff had never even heard of it. Feel very old.

The fact he made Florida his home does make sense
I think the Daily Mail is actually verging into sedition and subversion and treason.

Hannan is a nasty sh*t-stirrer & a grifter. This idiot’s been singing Trumps praises for years. Pushing the rhetoric in every right wing media outlet. Calling for UK to emulate Trump & his policies

Suddenly he’s claiming Trump narcissistic & facist behaviour has only just become apparent? F-off

Brought my #cat a new bed because it’s cold, I felt bad, & I wanted her to have a warmer place to sleep

Was fully expecting bed to get shunned

Cat rule 101: ‘I’ll decide where I sleep, not you, silly human slave’

But she LOVES her fluffy donut!

I can’t stop looking at her cuteness in it😻

1. Europe is far more technologically advanced than this muppet thinks & new batteries that don’t need specific materials from China are being developed

2. It’s far more likely that America will piss off the Chinese. Not Europe

Good luck to Tesla battery manufacturing & Musk if that happens 😏
Lutnick at Davos: "Why are you going to do solar and wind? Why would Europe agree to be net zero in 2030 when they don't make a battery? They don't make a battery! So if they go 2030, they are deciding to be subservient to China." (Get a load of the looks on the other panelists' faces)

Exaclty!

The BBC were infuriating this morning saying Trumps comments about the Chagos islands are deeply embarrassing for Starmer

It’s unstable ramblings & tantrum throwing from Trump. He is not a world leader who can be or should be taken at his word
Why is Donald Trump changing his mind every five minutes and saying completely mad stuff an embarrassment for Keir Starmer? It feels like it should chiefly be seen as an embarrassment for the United States.

Macron wearing the shades so it’s easier to roll eyes without detection during Trumps speech

And cos it looks cool 😎 👌

Okay I suspect he has eye infection/ bloodshot eyes

My reason is better tho 😂
January 20, 2026 at 4:23 PM
I can say with 💯 certainty Macron doesn’t give a shit about that threat on wine & champagne

He probably laughed & called him a fucking idiot (putain d'idiot)

Meanwhile the French public are definitely calling him a putain d'idiot
Q: Did you invite Putin to be on the Board of Peace?

TRUMP: Yeah. He's been invited

Q: Thoughts on Macron saying he won't join?

TRUMP: Did he say that? Nobody wants him bc he's going to be out of office very soon. If they feel hostile, I'll put a 200% tariff on his wines & champagnes & he'll join

BBC says this is V embarrassing for Starmer

Why? Starmer has plenty of faults but he isn’t stupid. He’d know the orange buffoon is liable to throw toys out the pram & change his mind

That doesn’t mean we can say that out loud when the toddler is threatening Europe
