When only a stupid person would say no to a free, very expensive aeroplane who in hell says YES? And, what were their reasons again?

"Papa" Francesco honoured his roots with his informal name. Let's hope the 1st US Pope follows suit an asks to be called Prope Leo, or maybe simply The Pro.

Papal yankola 2go. Beats they burned the less contempo options alive.

Bribe, kill, or threaten? We all call this TARIFFS now. Such euphemism!

Harrison Ford: "May the 4th was yesterday, and now maybe there's a whole new tomorrow." Brad Pitt: "If it ain't made in Hollywood, it's noplace." Hugh Grant: Notting Hill has always been exclusive. You want in on it, you fork out for it.

Looks like it's curtains for "A Stoke-On-Trent Werewolf In New York".

Just remembered it's #MayTheFourth again. How abominably tedious.

Back in the day, right wingers derided equality as a Marxist evil. Today, they're saying the same thing about diversity. Maybe one day they will actually make their minds up.

Without wishing omen-clear doom on anyone, let's get those Reform councils up, running, and doging out without delay! Taste test!

Back in the day we could throw eggs at shitheads we didn't like. But the *rent*, yanno ...

It's a fake-news-free fact that you can't ever underdiagnose a loudmouthed racist twat.

Find Diplomacy difficult? Promise peace in 24 hours only to discover you haven't got the faintest fucking clue what you're talking about? Brains hurt till your eyes roll when reading 3 words or more? Could be you're a NO-NONSENSE ACTION TAKER!

The fastest ink-to-final of my career; at 8pm last night I was still drawing this and by 7.30am it was 'published' - on the arm of brave Sophie! It's from 'Aristotle & Dante Discover The Secrets of the Universe' by Benjamin Alire Saenz. Always SO amazed anyone chooses to be tattooed with my art. 🖤

Who can forget the first frenzied moments of euphoria when the Brexit zealots FINALLY got their hands on the wheel after DECADES of being DIDDLED by the EU? What's going on rn in the White'n Ours is like a faster, up-the-twazzlerer version of that entire sorry phenomenon.

Good News: I'm seeing fewer spam penis development emails. Bad News: My inbox now crawls with explicit details of US-led Houthi bombing campaigns.

It would be improper on many levels to say Katy Perry found the right rocket, but I'm getting in here early before the planet is inindated with Headline Shame.

Why blow hot and cold when you can dangle your dick from your pants alongside a random price tag? (That's my take on tariffs until the planet goes bust.)

Does a spoonful of sugar counter loons full of bugger?

Political commentators are likening Trump's tariff 'initiative' to Brexit. Given that a significant proportion of the original Leavers now wince about their 2016 decision, it will be interesting to see what happens to all those red caps come 2033.

"Can I get fries with that?" "For sure, Mr President! Your every request comes complete with some form of universal incineration."

Not so sure I enjoy the certainty of today's effervescent schwoopschwazzlers. Back in the day, Wrong Uns kept their heads down and stayed quiet. Now they wear their most destructive machinations as a branded badge of honour.

"Trickle Down" was always duffed. "Trickle Away The Fuck To Wherever" in no way constitutes 40 years of wisdom.

"It's protection. Like a condom. Only opposite. A hood. A suffocating hood. Same as we've seen in this country for too damn long. So we're turning everything around. Not back into a condom. But still protection. That's the key. And we're rolling it out today. Thank you." Anything I've missed?

"Will Trump have the wit to quit like Truss?" seems now to be the forlornest hope on offer.

A son of a toolmaker? Armed with a 'range of levers'? Let's go Power Cray, babs. Harm we inflict be grievous!

I've always found it too mind-boggling to visualise what a collapsing black hole would look like in real time. Now the spectacle can roll out Zip Code by Zip Code.

Looting, pillaging, raping and plundering? And that's just the Ukraine minerals scam!

I recall the UK had an "Independence Day" once — and later almost tanked its own economy. But we crawled out of the wreckage and lived. Admitted, we never had quite the bunch of loons sucking up to quite the deluded hairdo on a lack of stick, but I'm sure sense will prevail across the pond ...

If the White House tariffs mean my fish & chips go up by more than 30p I'm going round there with a cricket bat.

You don't have to be a far right loon to get slammed for embezzling other people's money ... but it helps.

Ty from Orlando says "night cash sure beat school. doin my bit till seg yeh."

Purrzoomrlbee Starmer's "severe consequences" are like he loses his specs.

Turns out "ending the war in 24 hours" means disabling Ukraine to the extent that Putin can simply walk in and own the place.

The imminent Trump recession shares much with the now discredited Brexit At All Costs eurekatastrophe. Let see how this all pans out ...

Seems she's calling Putin tomorrow to dictate terms. "I'm blonde, you're a psychopath. So why don't we hop in a fast fuckin' car and trash the planet together?"

Micromanagey as Go Away!

Where once we had maybe a chance, all we got now is Jaded Expanse going on and on and on and on and on about how he is such a bitch.

Seems the UK has slashed aid to appease the nation of ultimate Thanksgiving.

V worth a gander if you make stuff ...

Why advocate for every soul to live if you invite them into a world where their demise is inevitable?
