Didn’t happen.
Nobody can remember.
Actually, I can remember.
Did happen wasn’t racist.
Was racist wasn’t offensive.
Here’s a possibly made-up letter from a bloke who insists things can only happen if he witnesses them.
As Farage squirms, Peter Ettedgui recalls their schooldays:

My dad abhors any negative comments about immigrants. Asked him recently why he’s so strong on it: ‘Because we’re always happy to take the rich and clever ones. Which means it’s not about disliking immigrants. It’s about disliking the poor and vulnerable. And that’s a bad human instinct.’
This is so disgusting.

How delightfully quaint some of these old Devon village names are, their etymologies lost in the mists of time.

Marvelling at the range of involuntary noises “one” finds “oneself” emitting in middle age:

*Standing up - dying manatee winched from mineshaft
*Sitting down - air escaping from punctured pouffe
*Bending over - concussed bison wrestled into sack
*Sneezing - final roar of once-proud warrior race

It’s just a crime against humanity. There’s no war. Hegseth is just out here ordering the killing of civilians.
Sen. Jacky Rosen (D-Nev.) says Pete Hegseth should "resign immediately" if it's true he gave a directive to “kill everybody” in a strike on boats in the Caribbean, including a second strike to kill survivors of the first strike.

“If the reports are true, Pete Hegseth likely committed a war crime."

I love how all the Air Force One interviews with Trump look like he’s just coming out of the toilet after a horrific dump.

I feel like one of the most underrated explanations for what's happening right now in global politics is that almost everyone has lost their minds.

I suggest that we start using the phrase "Mr. Beast and the CEO of Salesforce will be there too." as shorthand to explain how little we want to be at any given terrible event.

Problem: you have two left wing parties in British politics.
Solution: start a new left wing party to unify the movement

The guy shot two random people with a gun, I don't think you can say he wasn't assimilating into our culture
Stephen Miller is now arguing that assimilation is fundamentally impossible and that certain cultures are not compatible with Western civilization

People will listen to neuroscience podcasts 18 hours a day and never shut up about optimizing themselves and still willfully forget that the point of making art is not for a computer to generate an image as quickly as possible it is to activate different parts of that brain you supposedly care about
