Swearing...there will be swearing. Lots of it. Ex-Labour member after Starmer went full-on Farage in May 2025. Fuck Trump & all that stuff you'd expect. Bolton Wanderers & Washington Commanders fan/sufferer. Mainly Salford, sometimes Andalucia.

She deserves nothing from us.

Nada.

Let them fight...

Sadly, so much hangs on how things play out in the US with all their Project 2025 bollocks & how long Putin lasts.

You'd think there would have to come a time when Starmer (or whoever) has to stand up & say "We're no longer aligned with the US & our future lies with closer ties with Europe."

I was told pretty much exactly the same as a Politics student in 1988.

The entire "American Dream" notion is built on self-reliance & competition - "You can get this if you work hard!" so they're imbued with soft-right ideology from a very early age.

The country that invented unpaid internships.

Just re-read it & it's clearly AI-generated.

Why's Father Christmas lying in the woods?

Has he already drunk all the sherry?

HumphsDad @hunphreysdad.bsky.social · 3h

Not gonna lie, if there's free mince pies & sherry involved, I'm tempted.

There were some serious filters deployed in the construction of that image.

Any sign of this year's Gota Fria yet?

Got my first 24 hr stretch in The Cooler on here yesterday.

Made me feel all fuzzy & nostalgic for the old days.

Just got out from my first 24 hr stretch in the Bluesky cooler.

Just like the old days on Twatter.

If it happens again though, I'm off.

I can happily live without all the doom-scrolling & reading about a load of other soppy twats' first world problems.

Disappointed she didn't say: "Yes I am. And proud of it."

HumphsDad @hunphreysdad.bsky.social · 1d

Surprised she didn't recommend you become a proof-reader or text editor with your obvious skillz.

HumphsDad @hunphreysdad.bsky.social · 1d

That twat needs his hard-drive checking - stat!

Scramble the Mail, Express & Sun journos to head over to Benidorm to seek out disgruntled Gammons to look miserable & complain about being punished for being English or something...

The best bit for me is, they installed it 8 months ago & it's only just working now.

They've paid top dollar for it & when they complained, they were told "Read the small-print."

The developers retain all the IP rights & they've basically beta tested their shit for them with no right of recourse.

The wife's place is rolling it out & the thick fuckers think it's great because it does 90% of their basic admin tasks for them, so they think they're all on easy street.

Not one of the dense twats has joined the dots up yet.

Again..?

HumphsDad @hunphreysdad.bsky.social · 1d

Did you get that from an AI source?

Because it's absolute bollocks, as per 90% of chatbot shite.

HumphsDad @hunphreysdad.bsky.social · 1d

They fucking are, you bell end.

Who do you think writes The King's Speech when they formally open a new session of parliament?

I'll give you a clue; it's not fucking Charlie.

It's written by the new government, you dickhead.

He just reads it out.

HumphsDad @hunphreysdad.bsky.social · 1d

Absolute bollocks.

Are you on glue?

Does he know it's the same king with the same, basically ceremonial, powers?

HumphsDad @hunphreysdad.bsky.social · 1d

Very good point.

As a Brit, I'm not overly familiar with the various amendments to the Constitution (apart from the obvious ones like the first two & the twenty fifth), but that's enlightening.

Cheers for the heads-up b/c it makes perfect sense & explains why he's not "had an accident" yet.
