I’m often in bother because mine is learning my habits.
Two years ago, if I wrote ‘💩’, Autocorrect would change it to ‘shot’.
I must have changed it back so many times, it now changes it the other way.
If I write “Donald Trump was shot last week”, Autocorrect tells the world what I REALLY think.

I wish I was a funny typo expert 😂😂

My ignorance again 😂
I thought that was a pretty cool “End 🫱🏼🎤” (my best mic drop)
… then I spotted the typo 🤦♂️

There I was, thinking I’d found some people I could respect, and it turns out you’ve got history 🤦♂️
Maybe that’s how I got my thick skin - being a terrible judge of character 😬

I’m lucky I am thick-skinned. Not born that way - actually too sensitive as a child - but I’m sure it will be an advantage when (if) I grow up.

… and I just found out they blocked me, so I can’t even remind myself who they were or why they irritated me 🤷♂️

I have to confess I don’t follow anybody, partly because I don’t want someone else’s algorithm to try to second-guess me.
I love to see something by someone I have never seen before, challenging my preconceptions.

Absolutely, but it seems the “sovereignty/take back control” faction are desperate for us to be ruled from DC/Tel Aviv.
China has an empire waiting eagerly for them in Africa, as UK scrambles to STOP selling our products there under the guise of aid.

I will certainly give it a read, but my MP has never knowingly voted against the party line. I live in one of the democratic wastelands where one party gets more votes than all others combined, and nobody knows why - their policies have been disastrous for the region, but locals blame everyone else.

Our closest “allies” at this moment are trashing any notion of international law and rules-based order.

… yet we are buying F-35s and bombs controlled by the US, and any mention of distancing from the US or Israel is met with outrage?
We cannot stand up to Russia or China alone, but would stand a better chance in alliance with our EU neighbours than with unpredictable USA.

You make a convincing argument. In the face of such detailed reasoning, I bow to your supe

Sadly, it’s not about defending UK.
It’s about defending Israel, and supporting Trump as he avoids foreign wars by invading Panama, Canada, Greenland, Denmark, UK, France, Spain, Gaza / West Bank /Palestine, Iran, China, …

Israel could never afford
free healthcare if Americans stopped paying for it.
Remember, though, the US supports Israel because it helps bring forward Judgment Day and huge tax cuts; dead people don’t need schools, hospitals, police, a military, roads, …

It is surely closer to the AFL heartland than Brisbane or Pert?

BBC announced Iran-Israel ceasefire, then immediately followed it with “Israel is expected to retaliate against earlier Iranian strikes before the ceasefire”
Why can’t they just say “Israel is expected to break the ceasefire within hours”?
Too honest? Too accurate?

Classic BBC: “Israel is still expected to launch retaliatory attacks after Iranian strikes before the ceasefire”
The words “Israel is expected to breach the ceasefire within hours” were apparently unavailable for comment.

#BBCNews just announced - with no hint of self-awareness - “Iran and Israel have announced an immediate ceasefire … Israel is expected to launch retaliatory attacks for an Iranian strikes before the ceasefire”
The words “Israel is expected to break the ceasefire soon" were apparently unavailable

You referred to a mirror I don’t have? A bit odd
The original post was mine, and explicitly mentioned Israel
You never once mentioned Farage until this most recent comment
You appear to be a tedious troll, incapable of forming a rational line of thinking. Have fun howling at the moon without me.

If your mirror shapes your view of reality, I’d rather not.
You can lie to yourself - the “free world” is clinging on by its fingertips, despite Israel’s efforts - but I prefer to see the world as it is, even as criminals, rapists and murderers tear it apart (with your apparent approval).

I’m still not seeing any benefit in rescuing terminally stupid people 🤷♂️

“… inadvertently” is doing a lot of heavy lifting here.
How many times has Netanyahu been re-elected, in the full knowledge he is corrupt and bent on the annihilation of Palestine, even as an idea?
How did these secular saints propose to help victims of genocide? Euthanasia pills?

They wouldn’t need them, damaged or not, if they weren’t plunging into someone else’s fight, on the wrong side.
We do not rescue dual-nationals from lands where they hold citizenship, and Israel’s illegal aggression is not our business.
