I’m on my nonsense again – for the 100th time. This week’s Six Things: - 1 to 100 - brilliant dragonfly - world history in a minute - biomass vs technomass - exploding text - do you know when people died? and a BOOK GIVEAWAY open.substack.com/pub/levparik...

Pacifism forever leaving my body at exactly 5:00am 3 years ago

Today @moreincommonuk.bsky.social releases a deep dive into Progressive Activists, the most liberal/left leaning segment of the public. It looks at who this highly engaged group are, what they believe but also why their approach maybe leading to backlash against progressive causes.

Oh yes, Homer’s famous “Tes Thdpssssps.” 👍🏻

Except Vlad of course

Make this @OfficialUoM press release viral “Trump … echoed Kremlin talking points, by falsely claiming …Zelensky’s approval rating stands at a mere 4%…polling…puts his approval rating at 63% - making him the most popular politician in the country.” www.manchester.ac.uk/about/news/t...

😂 And imagine the expression on the bust of Winston Churchill after today’s Trump admin kowtowing to Putin in Munich! (Of course it had to be Munich…)

The only hope here is that he’s incompetent and lazy. If he acts on his rhetoric, there’ll be a lot of dead kids in the US, and the damage will continue for years.

How Is She So Bad At This? My, um, mixed review of PMQs.... thecritic.co.uk/how-...

Commentators: ‘These are some ugly scenes as a mass brawl breaks out on the pitch, it’s something nobody ever likes to see.’ Viewers:

This fxcking site has labeled every tweet from barrister @naomicunningham.bsky.social as " intolerance" Sort it out Bluesky. Follow her

Stonewall used to insist that refusing to accept someone's "trans" identity — refusing to pretend to believe that they are the opposite sex from their real sex — was "transphobic". Stonewall's definition of "transphobia" has been written into countless workplace policies.

Of all the popular snobberies, anti-Wetherspoon snobbery is one of the most tedious. Look at that value! About £2 less than the equivalent in McDonald's.

Good god

Those pesky pets are profiteering again. Great stuff Guardian!

There’s no support in any age group, region, social grade or party polled for self ID, use of puberty blockers or hormones in under 16s, trans women in women’s changing rooms or trans women in women’s sport. It’s wholly inaccurate to paint those who object to these things as extremist outliers

I don’t post much on this site. But what I’ve learned today is all the liberal men (who’ve fled here from evil X) defame you, and when you answer back, they block you or run away. They will answer other men, but never women. Strange that. 🤔 Leftie men: the most disappointing people on earth.

Me: Nearly Monday again. Totally ready for it. Narrator: But she wasn't ready. She wasn’t ready at all.

Lots more for my block list in the replies. Including this twat

John Peel, there, calling a duet between George Michael and Aretha Franklin 'any old rubbish'. Fuck off, Peel #totp

@bsky.app please reinstate @vizcomic.bsky.social

While idly scrolling, I chanced upon this still from Tobe Hooper's Salem's Lot, and for a brief second I thought "What, there was an American remake of Minder?!?"

I would have entirely agreed at the time, but oddly, now that I’m an old bastard, I can hear the sheer pop joy of it far better than I could at 14, when I thought songs had to have Proper Guitar Riffs to be authentic

As the old saying goes - if you’re explaining the ban on cats you definitely didn’t call for you’re losing

WTAF?

If this was the BBC it would end multiple careers.

Best. Oscars. Campaign. Ever

There's going to be so much for the next four years when the only rational response from everyone living outside the US is going to have to be: "Sorry - American problem."
