It’s not just that a large majority want Britain to rejoin the EU, it’s the fact that the majority steadily continues to grow…

Speaking in my professional capacity as a nurse, I do not recommend you stick your dinner up your bum.
I think I’m going to go in a different direction for health advice.

It’s the Government’s duty to protect all communities - including trans people.

They’re failing to do that.

Trans people deserve safety and dignity.

We are at an airport restaurant. A robot just drove up to us with our food, said, "Hi! Here I am!" and then drove away with our food.

Having seen a decent winner in Croatia I'm just going to check in on what excellent and sensible decision has been made in Greece and....oh my good god.

A worthy winner #Dora2026 but it's also hysterical that Mucho Macho came second.

Well done to Croatia for being this year's "summoning the elder gods in a forest clearing" entry. #Dora2026

Every other TV advert in Croatia seems to be for some sort of medication.

Just how ill are people in Croatia? Are the Croatians okay?

And now: 65 minutes of meandering hosts interviewing the poor artists, a half-hour long mini concert within the show and some ads. Perhaps we will see results also #dora2026

Absolutely this, and a lot of politicians too. Every pronouncement from Kemi Badenoch feels like a bad case of Twitter Brain.
It's galling to contemplate but I really think you have to admit that Musk buying X was an unqualified victory. It can't be exaggerated just how much prominent journalists, pundits, business type, etc. mistake the vibe on X for "how the country is feeling."

Wait, there's an advert for the Melania movie? Does someone in Croatia owe the Trump administration a favour?

I feel like Lelek should be my favourite but I'm kinda preferring Stela Rade.

Turns out other witches are available.

Yesterday "KENNETH," today, "DEVIN." Europe is apparently full of mononymic pop singers who chose their names from a middle school role call in 1998. #dora2026
