It feels like people are waking up

How sad it is that enough people - including the previously liberal - fell for the fear-mongering against trans people and this wedge issue helped return Trump to power and now we see the terrible cost that must be paid by both the trans community and many others too

America will have to live with the shame of what's happening here for years. www.wsj.com/world/europe...

Fraser Nelson is shocked, shocked to see Nazis getting media airtime

Agree with this.

Something is shifting. They are still breaking things and stealing things. And they will keep trying to break and to steal. But the propaganda magic around the oligarchical coup is fading. (1/2)

"Pardoning political loyalists, whose convicted conduct would otherwise fall on the extreme end of the category of so-called “violent criminals” he aims to punish, makes clear that the Trump admin is only performatively concerned with public safety." Read more ⤵️

Superb piece by my friend @stevenbeschloss.bsky.social about supporting foreign criticism of Trump's America. It's not unpatriotic of us to feel this way. It's a rejection of fascism and an endorsement of the need for freedom around the world.

Much, much bigger crowds at the domestic, Indian Women's Premier League than the international ICC Men's Champions Trophy. HASHTAG JUST SAYING.🏏

Feels timely to reshare this from from the 80th anniversary of Auschwitz’s liberation. World leaders lay candles, in silence until spontaneous applause greeted Zelenskyy. Those there knew he is fighting the 21st century’s Nazis. 20 days on, a US regime has sided with them. What utter darkness.

Amazon gains full creative control of Bond. I'm not even particularly a fan, but it was impressive to see decades of fairly rigid quality control. You can now kiss that goodbye under this simpering halfwit. Just more sludge to be fed into the content engine. www.theguardian.com/film/2025/fe...

Trump Boys Get Tongues Stuck To Frozen White House

Your knowledge of Emu's All-Live Pink Windmill Show might understandably start and end with that viral clip of the Pink Windmill Kids introducing themselves, but way back when, Deborah Tracey wanted to be shouting her name along with them... timworthington.org/2024/11/16/t...

I have solved Bird Flu. Give the chickens ivermectin. Have the chickens practice Earthing. The problem with their immune systems is they are not touching the soil enough. Coffee enemas for all chickens. Also we must stop reading them Ibram X. Kendi. Eggs will be back and most importantly not gay.

Oh great… Blofeld is going to be the good guy now.

Statement from Gov. Kathy Hochul via Twitter/X:

🚨 My new book, The Folly of Realism, comes out in less than one week 🚨 Take a look at the video trailer!

What did Bezos do to keep the Washpost off this list? (Psst: This is one of them there rhetorical questions. Please do not send gross sexual speculation.)

Just 3% of Brits think Ukraine is responsible for the war. Trump has lost all allies. Entirely.

The Republican Party is really just an egregious, conscienceless scam.

Donald Trump unloaded on Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy in a Truth Social post Wednesday morning, accusing Zelenskiy of enjoying a “gravy train” from the United States and calling him a “Dictator without Elections.”

3rd day in a row on the golf course while Musk runs the country. He didn’t even know yesterday that the head of the Social Security Admin resigned, and didn’t know SpaceX employees were working at the FAA/DOD, and claimed Medicaid wasn’t being cut when it’s being cut massively.

Dark Pence is back.

Took quicker than I thought....but...yeah....pretty clear this was always going to happen.

Trump is not a Russian asset.

Trump running America is the political equivalent of letting Dougal do a funeral.

Trump’s first month back in office has been a whirlwind of executive orders: banning paper straws, gutting overseas aid, and proposing a Gaza beach resort.  Full story by US-Eye columnist Lady Liberty in the new Private Eye, out now.

If you’d asked AI to write a piece of Russian propaganda in the style of Donald Trump, this is what you’d get. Well done America, you’ve elected a Russian asset as your President.

Kyiv remains the capital of freedom! 💙💛

Donald Trump is the President of the United States and the Spokesperson for Vladimir Putin. Only we in the UK and Europe will protect Ukraine.

"And you totally know how to paint a baby?" Artist: Yup "You're sure?" Artist: Don't worry about it "You know what a baby looks like?" Artist: Yes "It's just you always paint babies like they're 40yr old blokes called Colin" Artist: Not this time

Short as it is, the theme tune has always been a doozy. The sitting shadow version of the title sequence is still vastly superior to this though. I'd argue the series would have been a lot less memorable without it, even given the 'faceless nun' story. youtu.be/1AbYij1znuI?...

OK Kemi, I confess; I *was* planning to brainwash my physics students with my left-of-centre politics. But I gave up when I couldn't even indoctrinate them into reading the f*cking syllabus.

A snippet from the “proposal” where US gets the 50% of Ukraine’s minerals JDV presented Zelenskyy in Munich with Are DJT lawyers too stupid to spell “peace” or did they want a “lasting piece” of Ukraine?

I used to think this. But now I’m not so sure. Trump not only owes Musk; he seems to fear him, much as he seems to fear Putin.

The only life @realdonaldtrump wants to save in the war is Vladimir Putin's.
