Screenshot of a pair of Twitter posts from 19th April 2018 Polly Mackenzie @pollymackenzie Four years ago Lib Dem Ministers started agitating for a 5p charge on plastic bags. It took us months to persuade Cameron and Osborne. | Polly Mackenzie @pollymackenzie We finally got the policy in an eve-of-conference trade, in return for tightening benefit sanctions. for context, Polly Mackenzie was the director of policy for Nick Clegg, the Liberal Democrat Deputy Prime Minister for 2010–2015.

a colourless image of a close-up view of a manga-style drawing of a serious faced Japanese man in traditional garb, with a speech bubble next to him that reads "MAHJONG CAUSES GREAT DAMAGE TO THE HUMAN SPIRIT WITHOUT A SINGLE BENEFIT." this is an edited down panel from page 132 of the first volume of the manga, "You're on Fire! Pen-Chan!", and is a commonly used reaction meme in online Mahjong communities

Screenshot of a Tumblr ask and response post Anonymous asked: YOU are a neurotypical cisgender woman. going about with your latte and such postoctobrist answered: [obediently] I am a neurotypical cisgender woman. going about with my latte and such The joke is that postoctobrist is a trans woman, and this ask/response is formatted as if she is being brainwashed or hypnotised by the anonymous asker to believe she is a cisgender woman

not to out myself as an absolute freak but I like Chocolate HobNobs, my favourite thing to do with them is dunk them really deep into tea so they're maximally soggy then put them in my mouth whole and suck the tea out before eating the resulting mush.
a packet of McVitie's Milk Choc Hobnobs, a dense but crumbly biscuit made of rolled oats, with a thin layer of milk chocolate on one side.

look at this sticker dude, my roach is so cute
a WeChat sticker of W from Arknights, acting out an argument between two handpuppets in the likeness of Ines and Hoederer W is a white haired girl in a grey t-shirt with two red ahoge sticking out of the top of her head like antennae (which is the origin of her "cockroach/roach" nickname), the handpuppets are crude likenesses of her two companions; Ines, a woman with long black hair and black horns, dressed in black with a red collar, and Hoderer, a man with shaggy red hair and grey horns, wearing a dark shirt and a brown scarf.

I assume the rest of their content is just as poorly researched and written, and it's just picked up on by a different set of people familiar with what they're talking about each time

glad to see the Labour Party joining in with the definitely not embarassing fascist wave gripping the nation
a satirical pamphlet titled "Having sex with a flag", with the subheading "A SEXUAL HEALTH GUIDE" above a large drawing of a grey haired older man in glasses and a button up shirt staring longingly at a draped Union Flag, above the tagline "Your guide to totally doing it with a flag." the text is white on a purple background, and the pamphlet is staged in a plastic holder along with other NHS sexual health guides, as if it has been photographed in a GP's waiting room.

my favourite bit of the old Mechwarrior editions is the Crests, Colors, Uniforms and Equipment, which I'm pretty sure draw inspiration from similar pages about real world military organisations, there's such a breadth of different styles and poses to take inspiration from (some examples attached)

Honse Meme
A meme using the basic template from the Jeb! Victory, but with the Uma Musume character El Condor Pasa in the background is a Presidential election map of the USA, with every state coloured in yellow, at the top is an Electorl College vote counter, usually this fills up with both red and blue until one colour passes the midline that represents a majority, indicating which party has won the Presidency in the election, however instead the Democrats and the Republicans are shown as having 0 seats, instead the bar is fully yellow. Below the bar is the bold yellow text "El Condor Pasa", which is the name of an Uma Musume character. A screenshot of that character winning a race is superimposed over the election map, together these elements imply that El Condor Pasa has won the Presidential election. El Condor Pasa is an average-sized horse girl with a slight eccentric taste to her presence. She has medium-length brown hair in a high ponytail, with a small horse tail of the same colour coming from her lower back. She wears a blue and white striped band on her right ear and a gold edged crimson eye mask. On her body she wears a long red coat with feathered finges along the hem and bold golden crisscross lacing up the front, this is worn open with a yellow V-neck shirt underneath and a blue pleated skirt with white stipe edging. She is stood in a triumphant pose, her arms stretched out to either side of her with her palms up, eyes wide and mouth open like she is yelling in joy with her victory. superimposed over her is a large "1st" in bold gold letters, surrounded by a white glow and a golden wreath, with a button that says "TAP" beneath it, indicating that this is taken from a screenshot of the game Uma Musume Pretty Derby where she has just come 1st in a race.

when the girl is a little pathetic and adoptable
simple anime style image of a woman with white hair, held back in a loose bun with a pair of ornamented red hair sticks, pink eyes with stylised dark eye shadow, wearing a tan jacked and a light coloured simple top, looking down at a point to the right of the viewer, with a thought bubble with the word "peggable" written in it coming from her. this is to give the impression that this woman thinks that the subject she is looking at, implied to be a person, is "peggable"

edit of a four panel ShenComix/Owlturd comic, showing Shen looking at a stack of three boxes representing his schedule, while holding a fourth box. the boxes in the stack are labelled "Sleep", "WIP 1" and "WIP 2" while the box in his hands is labelled "Kimmy Fic" in the first panel Shen says "AW, I CAN'T FIT KIMMY FIC INTO MY SCHEDULE." in the second panel shen looks behind him, as if checking to see if he is being observed in the third panel he reaches up and grabs the box labelled "Sleep" in the fourth panel he is pulling that box free from the stack, with the implication being that he will replace it with the box labelled "Kimmy Fic", replacing Sleep in his schedule with Kimmy Fic. in this panel he is saying "OR CAN I?..." and his face is shown partially in shadow, to represent the ominous nature of this course of action

would you include emailing someone's employer and claiming they are encouraging self harm because they made fun of you over a Star Wars post to be bad behaviour?

especially as you yourself have actually encouraged self harm in the past?
A compilation of four tweets by Will Stancil @whstacil on twitter tweet 1 reads "god you're deranged. you really should consider the bleach option" tweet 2 reads "My family and many of my friends are in North Carolina and with all due respect, I'd like to request the author of this trash account go walk into the ocean" tweet 3 reads "Hey go guzzle bleach" tweet 4 reads "lol are you gonna call my mom" below the tweets is a political campaign message in orange text on a red background, which reads "Working in the legislature means working with a broad coalition of people. Representative Frank Hornstein knew how to build bridges and work with people to get things done for *all* Minnesotans. At a time like this, where tensions across the country are high and MAGA Republicans are using violent rhetoric, our district can't afford a Representative who will risk our hard work by using language that will distract and divide, driving us further apart and further away from the solutions we Minnesotans need. MN61A needs leadership, not Will Stancil. Vote August 13." below this mesage is a list of bit.ly liks to the four Will Stancil @whstancil tweets 1-bit.ly/WillStancilTweet1 2-bit.ly/WillStancilTweet2 3-bit.ly/WillStancilTweet3 4-bit.ly/WillStancilTweet4

cropped screenshot of a grey webpage, displaying a media player that has at the top a progress bar in blue, above a large plain button with the word "PAUSE" on it, outlined with a thin blue line. below the title of the media has been blanked out and replaced with the phrase "head from a girl that knows this UI", the joke is that this is a screenshot of a niche but relatively well known website for posting erotic audio files.

I loooove the dress uniform too! it looks soooo good!

(I'm still annoyed that the beret and other head cosmetics don't play nice with custom hair colour though, I sent them feedback about that during the beta and it's annoying to see it not improved)

I also did made mine red, just the other way
