MAGA and @realdonaldtrump.bsky.social may be in the US, but we also have a big beautiful ocean separating us, so we can have MEGA over here.

For those people who believe they can predict the future, I think science fiction is their genre. I also think, we should all be more like JC (Jesus Christ or Joan Collins, you decide) youtu.be/dRIYBO-05K8?...

Professor #madawialrasheed on BBC now, gave a cogent, coherent analysis to the crisis in Israel/palestine. This was in stark contrast to #danielhagari whose hysterical rant about the handover of dead bodies as a CAH. Yes HAMAS should have DNA'd the remains but, wait, you destroyed their hospitals!

And so it continues, my ukrainian bloopers keep blocking me, in social media terms exercising their nuclear option, and going all SAS on my sorry ass. But what do I know? This is what I think I know! Higher education is about thinking and questioning, not remembering facts or being stuck in them.

In 2014, while the ukrainians had a Revolution of Dignity, we in Scotland had a Referendum. THAT'S DEMOCRACY!

And so it continues, this peace pigeon is repeatedly blocked when providing an alternative analysis to the russo-ukrainian war. Why is that? What stops people from opening their minds and saving lives? When will we all find peace and prosperity?

And for the Pigeon Post, our africa correspondent Amina Fake, has reported that President Trump is accusing the South African government of discriminating against gingers. President Ramaphosa is apparently seeing red.

www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025... I propose a name change for CPAC, to something more catchy. How about Conservative Repression Against People or CRAP.

You can see that some proponents for the war in ukraine are going all out SAS (shouty, angry, sweary). Some like to invoke the spirit of churchill when seeking our support. Here's my support, more jaw jaw, less war war🇺🇦

youtu.be/6vGx3TW7Gv4?... Some jokes just dont age, unlike presidents

Okay, the war on poverty is a war worth fighting, whatever the cost.

As today's news conference for US and Ukraine is cancelled, perhaps to salve Zelenskyy's ego and smooth out Trump's wrinkles, a reminder that you the public can have your say on War or Peace. I'll start, peace is worthwhile at any cost.

www.youtube.com/watch?v=ts_G... Wow, for the King of Comedy to call anyone a moderately successful comedian, is high praise indeed given how he has made billions from his own stand up comedy.

A truly sad spectacle today - the bodies of hostages being handed back, against the backdrop of destruction in Gaza. It didnt have to be this way. 49 years ago, 102 hostages were rescued in Entebbe, with the death of the mission's heroic leader, Yoni Netanyahu www.theguardian.com/world/2016/j...

So, trump is trying to row back from the previous criticism by rehashing the social security figures making it seem like irony. Nope. He was seriously discussing older people at genetically impossible age groups. He is a dummy, you know it, we know it, but he doesnt know it, clearly.

I am not planning to visit the usa or israel anytime soon. I know, it wont make a difference to how these countries operate, but I will be much more chilled about my choices. When others join with me, it will make a difference. www.humanrights-in-tourism.net/responsible-...

Dont Vote. Its that simple.

chatgpt.com/share/67b628... Is there anyone alive today who has lived this long? I'm not referring to the President, although at 78 he is the oldest incumbent.

Here are three politicians. Now, be honest, who do you trust and why? Admittedly, Zelenskyy has had a much better press campaign, which depicts him as a heroic resistance leader. Perhaps we need to consider recent events objectively rather than subjectively, and follow the money!

www.youtube.com/live/eoUBcCj... So, The Don in full meltdown as he lists long lists of people who are super old, impossibly old, and still allegedly claiming benefits. Can we have a medical intervention please? Is the President's brain missing?

And the Pigeon Post's war correspondent Armand Fake has today reported that a special force will be sent to Ukraine, on a mission to bore the enemy to death.

This is an example of the misinformation war, sometimes referred to as propaganda. It proposes european mobilisation to attack russia, but the post doesnt allow us to respond. Here is my response, a general escalation will lead to WW3 and that is unacceptable.
