Tweet by @WurzelRoot: i feel i have been condescended to by a woman who looks exactly like this thousands of times (picture of a perfectly normal woman doing a perfectly normal smile at the camera) Panel from a Robert Crumb comic Seething loser with visible stink lines: "I loathe every person I see on the street! Lookit that stupid ass-hole!" He is looking at a normal guy, walking and whistling pleasantly.

Ignore them, Ricky! It's just health and safety gone mad, yet another example of the woke brigade being jealous of your success. Of course a flood can't "threaten your life" - you can probably get a tight five out of that daft notion. You go ahead and live on whatever crumbling riverbank you like.
Evening Standard story: Ricky Gervais warned £5m mega-mansion on banks of River Thames at risk of 'life-threatening' floods The comedian, 64, has already faced delays to the project due to the huge number of bats in the area (Do alt-text results show up when the pathetic sack of mince drunk-searches his own name? I guess we'll find out!)

Yeah, I'm going to need to hear this from Incel Himmler himself, not a medium desperate for us to believe his tales of his benign spirit guide

I'm so bored with rightwing cuntrarians who dismiss any "rules-based order" because they're too dense and self-obsessed to imagine that they have ever benefited from it.
Kemi Badenoch says Trump’s Venezuela raid was ‘morally’ right, as she suggests faith in rules-based global order overrated

Sorry, tell a lie, they did a nativity after all:
A funeral director's window display containing a nativity scene populated by knitted figurines, mostly of penguins but featuring occasional other animals. A funeral urn is visible off to the right.

No nativity, but in previous years they have knitted the 12 days of Christmas.

Similarly, a nasty bout of food poisoning (or possibly carbon monoxide) appears to have taken its toll on this funeral director's already intriguing window display
A model of a horsedrawn hearse in a funeral director's window, complete with plastic horses and a knitted funeral director. Something has gone wrong and all the representations of living things in this display have keeled over, which might be thought a tad heavyhanded on the topic of "funerals" Close-up view of the knitted funeral director and plastic horses confirming that yes, they are all pretty fucked and that model hearse won't be going anywhere soon. Highly unprofessional behaviour all round.

Melissa has sensibly disabled replies to her post, possibly because of the number of people sending her this "reliable, frontline" report by Reuters.

(Ironically, this lopsided & cynically lawless assessment could easily have been written by Grok - which Reuters cited as a source only a day ago.)

Reconditioned, new battery, solid state hard drive, no goddamn subscription model, doesn't try to scrape my data or interrupt me with notifications every few seconds. My favourite bit of kit from the last 20 years and to hell with Apple for abandoning it.
A black 2014 160GB iPod, reconditioned so it runs as good as new. A product that is perfect for the one job it had to do BUT doesn't scrape my data to make me the product so couldn't be allowed to survive in this dystopian dumbshit tech-corp century.

The cover of "One Day" by Omar El Akkad, which reads in full: "One day, (when it's safe, when there's no personal downside to calling a thing what it is, when it's too late to hold anyone accountable) everyone will always have been against this"

I believe @happytoast.co.uk did one of these Paddington-at-the-gates illustrations for Jack Karlson, to which I'm responding here, but the tweet itself is deleted
Tweet by me on 8 August 2024: I'm glad to see so many of us agreeing that Paddington is the only suitable Psychopomp to accompany Karlson on his journey. [Attached is a photoshopped still from the video of Jack Karlson being arrested - "a succulent Chinese meal?" - where the arresting officer he accuses of touching his penis is Paddington Bear]

Pouring one out for Chris Rea, author of one of our best-known but least-suspected Christmas ghost stories
Tweet by me on 24 December 2019: Just discovered my wife has always assumed the narrator of Chris Rea's song will perpetually be "Driving Home for Christmas" because he died while doing just that and is now a ghost ("Get my feet on holy ground", etc). This excellent interpretation is now 100% canon. Soz Chris.

Francis "The End of History, No Really, Please Continue to Take Me Seriously" Fukuyama wrote an article in April this year called "My ChatGPT Teacher" (referencing the not unengaging but still deeply weird Netflix doc "My Octopus Teacher" - if you haven't seen it, it's not very long, I recommend it, you can see how deeply weird it is for yourself). In it, he wrote: I've been spending my time on a big software project that has finally come to a successful conclusion, which I could not possibly have accomplished without ChatGPT's help.

Matt Hancock pulls off the difficult feat of being a comically tragic figure.
Tweet by me on 6/3/23: Hancock's tragedy is that he, almost alone among Tories, understood why 1000s of people dying in a pandemic would be a bad thing & had the thankless task of trying to explain this to his colleagues - but then botched the early response so badly he could potentially be prosecuted. Quoted tweet by @theonlypeterkay: “Hancock tells lawyers he wants immunity on care home deaths during Covid pandemic” Gina Miller says “The threshold has been met to investigate Mr Hancock for gross negligence manslaughter… a common law offence that carries a maximum of life imprisonment” 394 Views

And there truly is no less an authority.
Extract from the horseshit legal case Trump is bringing against the BBC: "No less an authority than the United Kingdom's former Prime Minister, Liz Truss, discussed this bias, the need to hold the BBC accountable, and the BBC's pattern of actual malice."

Fenomenal.
Post on Threads by @chrislundartist: Trump said he wants more immigrants from Norway. I have reviewed the offer, and I have to decline. The benefits package is terrible. You offer two weeks of vacation if we are lucky; we get five. Your maternity leave is "good luck", while we get a year. Your healthcare plan is GoFundMe, while ours is free. And your safety plan is just "thoughts and prayers". Moving to the US right now feels like leaving a spa to go work in a burning hot dog stand. Thanks, but we will stay in the snow.

2020s median voter with legitimate concerns:
Panel from James Tynion's "The Department of Truth": Dexter the neonazi saying "People aren't going to care about being nice anymore. People tried being nice and it didn't take. It didn't make their lives better. People want to want what they want. And they do. And the longer they have to pretend they don't, the angrier they get." Subsequent panel: Dexter says "And they're going to be *mean*. And it's going to fucking suck for you, and it's going to be *fucking great* for me."
