Reminds me of that phrase, "if you open your mind too much, your brain will fall out."
This would explain much about this waste of space.

This little madam refused, point blank to get in the cat basket for her annual checkup at the vets. No amount of treats, celery spray or brute force was going to make her go. Well played Esme, you won this battle, but the war goes on.

Now, look, I'm a bit confused. I thought Drumpf was all for human trafficking, what with his bestie being Epstein and his public support for the Tate bros. Now he's backtracking.

Also saw a Specked Wood butterfly in my garden last week. Disappointed I couldn't get a photo of it on some speckled wood.

Saw a mint moth in my garden just this week. It was only about a centimetre across. Got a photo of it.

My Google feed just threw these two news stories together and I have two issues with this. One, I have never, in all my Scrabble and Countdown playing years heard the word "resile." (But it appears to be real.) And (b.) Do these twa*ts not hold meetings? To like, agree on stuff? Fuck*ing amateurs.

Not half as devastating as to those unfortunate people who need sickness benefits. Tax the rich instead, like a Labour Party should, you pointless waste of space.

Disgusted as I am by Starmer's awful, grovelling schoolboy meeting with the big orange toad, I am furious that Trump wants to grab our Prime Minister's wife by the, err, way.

David Lynch, you made great stuff, but freaked me out with one particular scene, and I still don't understand why it makes me so uncomfortable. You turned Jeffries into a kettle. Genius.
