Also no… they’re not fucking real.

Humans have the ability to humanise a fucking plug socket because they see a face in it. That doesn’t make the plug socket human. It means we anthropomorphise things because we’re hard wired to find connections.

The ball won't be that cheap!
Nor will it get finished
Russian asset Ron Johnson says there’s no money to give Americans $2K inflation checks. But there is money for a despot’s $250M ballroom and enough to give $40B to Argentina’s dictator.

I’ll always remember Ron paying Putin a visit in Moscow on July 4th weekend in 2018.

Watched this years ago. A great film with a haunting ending
Once Were Warriors (1994) 🎥
Directed by Lee Tamahori

The Hekes struggle to lead a normal life as Jake, the patriarch of the family, often gives in to his violent temperament.
The unrest at home affects everyone, leading to tragedy and ruin.

Marjorie Taylor Greene has been hated by the left for years and never feared for her life. She’s been hated by the right for two days and had to hire security.

If the UK government was really serious about online safety they would have banned Twitter/X instead of implementing the Online Safety Act. That would've removed a major source of extremist hate but preserved small website communities and forums that offer safe aid and advice.

Because it reveals under the surface who he is; a bully who only tolerates subservients around him. And when you extrapolate from that you see what he is; a rapist and a tyrant.
I don't know why the "Piggy" thing is bothering me so much. It's one more unforgivable thing in a list of 20,000 unforgivable things, but I've been mad about it for like 12 straight hours.

A mansion tax isn't how you hit the wealthy - who have a small proportion of their wealth tied up in housing. A mansion tax is how you hit the middle classes - whose only valuable asset is their house.

More cowardice from Labour: afraid to go where the real money is, to go after the super rich.

Just seen Predator Badlands.

Worth watching. Entertaining, at least

Holy Moly. Sara Cox just ran 5 marathons in 5 days to complete 135 miles.

And she trained over only 10 weeks to complete the challenge from virtually no running.

Remember when Harvey Weinstein suddenly became frail and infirm in a desperate attempt to gain sympathy?
I wonder when Trump and MAGA make the pivot from "healthiest President to ever live" to "shame on you for harassing this frail senior citizen! Dems hate the elderly!!!"
I give it a week.

No Wes Streeting, the BMA is not acting like a cartel. It’s acting like a trade union. And frankly it’s disgusting to hear you talk like this while huge numbers of doctors can’t get NHS jobs because you haven’t created them, while millions of patients are on waiting lists🚨🚨🚨
