"We are fighting for our independence. Therefore, we will not recognize any territories occupied by Russia." - Zelenskyy.

Well done, @keating.house.gov A true ally doesn’t just watch—they stand up. I’ve accidentally misgendered someone at my daughter’s school before. It happens. The moment I realized, I apologized and made sure not to do it again. Rep Keith Self did this on purpose. He meant to be hurtful.

Come on down to the White House Tesla Auto Mall!

DO YOU WANT TO BUY A TESLA?!?!?!?

Labour MP Nadia Whittome says to tax the rich instead of taking benefits away from the poor Ought to be a no brainer for a Labour government but here we are 🤷‍♂️

Had some lovely photos from people wearing their Michael Fish weather jumpers. But the loveliest of all is this one from the man himself

Rosalie Chapman, "You will hear from Baroness Claire Fox, a former Brexit party member of the European Parliament and a founder of Academy of Ideas" "I can only hope that one day she can come up with a good one herself" She then tears into Fox in the most spectacular way

Tories to force vote to disapply Human Rights Act in immigration cases Human rights are universal - if we start stripping away basic human rights from any section of society then none of us has rights- just privileges that can be taken away by people in power when they want youtu.be/yhXzz_alkSk?...

On the 5th anniversary of covid, here's a throwback to #BBCQT "I work for the NHS as a cleaner. My mum works as an ICU nurse, she's my inspiration" "And all throughout covid she was holding up ipads while people died in front of her and her colleagues, and they deal with that trauma every day"

Holy shit! Get this dude into a straight jacket—pronto

UK, France, Germany and Italy, are supporting a £41b billion proposal by Arab nations led by Egypt, to rebuild Gaza without displacing Palestinians Israel and the US have rejected it

Very heartening to see foreign officials mocking him for being a fucking clown. Feels like the garlic to his vampire

We need more people like Frankie in the world.

Happy 6th anniversary of the time Jim Davidson got so mad about International Women's Day that he left Twitter for good but NOT BEFORE he'd failed to spell "international" or "bye" and also couldn't find the apostrophe on his keyboard.

If only there was some way of knowing why Musk is pushing for elections and “regime change” in Ukraine… but not Russia..

Tesla’s European Sales Have Fallen by 50% 📉 I cannot say that I cry over this.

Public opinion of Putin and Trump I'm Spain, France, UK and Italy. For some peculiar reason the graphs look better on their side.

In Trump’s SOTU address, he claims to be chosen by god and says he’ll take Greenland “one way or another”, “reclaim” Panama, impose punitive tariffs, end “wokeness”… A masterclass in wild egomaniacal bullshit and ugly threat, delivered to standing ovations. Christ America. You’ve completely lost it.

This is the literal penalisation of free speech…

Fuck off with this headline, CNN. We didn't "escalate" anything by defending ourselves.

"What sort of confidence do you want your kids to grow up to have, Aid?" "Can i go for 'Lewis Goodall being told that somebody doesnt like him' ?" [just *total* indifference and i am *here* for it] @lewisgoodall.com

Love this so much.

Somehow, in the war between Russia and Ukraine, the first country to surrender was America.

Excellent stuff. “Starmer announces that the UK government will allow Ukraine to use £1.6bn of UK export finance to buy more than five thousand air defence missiles. He says these will be made in Belfast, creating jobs in the UK's defence sector” www.bbc.co.uk/news/live/cn...

Mike Myers is perfect as Elon on Saturday Night Live. #SNL

Thanks for the endorsement of #TeslaTakedown, @georgetakei.bsky.social! I worked with George on a TV show, he's a real one ✊

I'm watching the Columbo with Johnny Cash! This is one of the first episodes I remember seeing. The ending gave me chills.

Zelenskyy welcomed to No10 with a hug from Keir Starmer.

Prime Minister Starmer humiliates Donald Trump on live television. He shut him up and fact checked him mid sentence. Trump sat there shoulders slumped nodding his head. #StandWithUkraine

Next year, the EU will require cars to have buttons & dials -- not just touchscreens -- to get a top safety rating. This is a great move. Drivers can fiddle with knobs & buttons without taking their eyes off the road, but they can't do that with touchscreens. (Even better: Tesla will hate this)

Uncle Buck’s 4K Blu-ray, from Kino Lorber, achieves perfection with Dolby Vision & stunning HDR! 🎥 Enjoy stellar DTS-HD 5.1 & 2.0 tracks, featuring Tone Loc's "Wild Thing." Extra features include Macaulay Culkin’s audition! #PhysicalMedia #FilmSky bit.ly/4icrP3F

Allister isn’t available to respond to these allegations so he’s sent in his nonsense double in his absence

My Faith? No more

I really hope nothing horrifically bad and torturous happens to these child molesters.

It's the Musk Effect. Someone who sounds like a genius until he starts talking about something you're knowledgeable about, and you realize he's saying the dumbest shit ever.

The push for this in Britain started in earnest in 2009 and was already roaring by 2011. There’s more joy in heaven at a sinner who repenteth and all that, and I don’t want to discourage people reaching the obvious conclusions late, but this is entirely self-interest isn’t it.
