While I do love the fact that an 80+ yo guy is fronting a big festival to stir up dissent, I would be happier if someone of the attendees' generation was out there firing them up.

The Trump Administration is a gaggle of narcissists (not sure what collective noun to use - "a conceit of narcissists", "a wank of narcissists", "a delusion of narcissists"?). #USAisPsychotic

The USA is a No-go Zone. Unless you've always wanted to visit El Salvador.

Well, after seeing the interview with Peter Navarro on Meet the Press today, I'm loathed to admit it but I am inclined to agree with Elon Musk's assessment that Navarro's "dumber than a sack of bricks". #ShipofFools

🤘🏼😈🤘🏼

Same.

La Tingle’s rather eviscerating assessment of the Opposition leader should be read by everyone… www.abc.net.au/news/2025-04...

Historian here posting for no reason at all. U.S. Constitution, Article II Section 4: "The President, Vice President and all civil officers of the United States, shall be removed from office on impeachment for, and conviction of, treason, bribery, or other high crimes and misdemeanors."

Purple cauliflower.

I have a mega-crush on Hiroshi Abe…😍

Right now, America is not a place where rule of law exists. We are all being mined to increase the wealth of the few.

It’s Amazing What White Evangelicals Are Willing To Ignore….

I don’t know how many times a day I see some monumental jerk on tv and think #JustDieAlready.

Sometimes, the Moon passes directly in front of the beautiful Pleiades star cluster in a celestial event called an occultation! This composite image from Spain captures the Moon's visit. These monthly occultations last until 2029, then not again until 2042! Credit: Cayetana Saiz

We are literally being led by the dumbest people alive

I’ve just rewatched this series on Disney+. It’s easily one of my favourite shows of all time. Quirky but never in a try-hard way, a gentle portrait of a grab-bag of characters stumbling through life in Tokyo. It’s beautiful. www.imdb.com/video/imdb/v...

Hands down, best post on here for, like, forever. 😹 🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆

Me too

Not just “approaching” - it’s arrived.

Have we reached “Peak Stupid” yet? #VanceIsVile

So, why exactly did the US bomb Yemen recently? Has anyone actually bothered to ask that? How many casualties were there? Who were they? Was it all just to give Pete Hegseth a massive boner?

Trump's tariffs remind me of the only joke I ever remember: "Why do dogs lick their balls? "Because they can." Why do dogs lick their balls - cos it feels good. Why is Trump wreaking economic havoc - cos it feels good. Tariffs allay the bottomless pit of pain at the core of Trump's being.

Anyway, don't mind me. I'm just screaming into the void after 64 years of being bored, angry, misunderstood, and dismissed as a weirdo. Nothing to see here - move along.

The point I'm making is that it's all boring and suffocating and stunting. The strictures of gender limit society like the binding on a bonsai's roots - and we could be living in a giant sequoia.

Though, interestingly, the two have commonalities: - both men are in monochrome attire - both are showing off the woman they've claimed as theirs - both men are displaying their wealth.

And a few hundred years ago, it was this:

For example: this is what being a man and a woman is supposed to look like at this point in human history 😂.

Sometimes I'm just overwhelmed by the sheer weirdness of how performative gender is. I remember reading years ago in a book by Dale Spender that women favour the higher register of their voices, though they are physically capable of speaking lower than they generally do.

How could the German people know about the camps and do nothing? Well, seems we are all Germans. #FASCISMisTheOnlyEvil

Facts #auspol

#ProudBlue #MomSky This is powerful & it makes me sick to my stomach. How do people not see the parallels? We CANNOT be silent. We MUST fight & resist. If you wondered why people were silent in 1903s Germany, look at many in the US right now. Share the truths. Call out lies. IT’S UP TO US!

Well, "decent Americans" should have gotten off their arses and voted.

Yes, just once - OR even a few thousand times would be nice!

We need to resist the pressures on human atrophy on all fronts.
