Every so often I remember that Oprah brought us Dr Phil, Dr Oz and The Secret but the only person she brought back to destroy on her show was the guy who pretended to be a worse drug addict than he actually was in a book

It is disgusting. Not only must Ukraine accept this blackmail, it must do so while also accepting the loss of 20% of its territory. That’s not ‘peace’ it is extortion.

England collapse on its way...

We can say, without any doubt, that social media conspiracism now rules the world. If that doesn't prompt some serious rethinking about social media and its regulation, I don't know what will.

Never really got on with Friends, but the actors really were top notch comic performers weren't they? #totp

This #totp would have been far better if had just gone out on Olive rather than this Barlow dreck.

Damage - all the calories of Boyz II Men and only half the flavour! #totp

Carefully done study clearly shows X and TikTok pushing pro-AfD content to Germans whose own selections of who to follow are neutral. In other words, heavy pro-AfD thumb on the scale by Elon Musk and CCP. www.niemanlab.org/2025/02/in-g...

I’m not sure the world has seen a genuine supervillain until 2025. Of course there’ve been countless monsters: hitler, Stalin, pol pot. But a real life figure who fits the Gotham/Metropolis model. Plutocrat bigwig who is actually deeply evil & wants to run the world for cartoonishly stupid reasons.

These days...

Mom, come pick me up, they're coming up with the silliest possible version of the Great Man Theory of History

Just me or has Truss had work done? Normally would not comment but seems relevant given is circling the kind of batshit American right-wing circles where everyone starts to look like the Bride of Wildenstein.

"Conservatives are the guardians of Western Civilisation. WE MUST DEFEND IT."

A woman who claims she is Madeleine McCann has appeared in court on allegations she's been stalking the missing girl's family www.standard.co.uk/news/uk/made...

Rolling out the heavy artillery: our metal lady is bigger than your metal lady

Douglas Murray the latest to right-wing grievance merchant to discover face eating leopards like the taste of face flesh.

Genuinely loved this show as a kid. Proper Channel 5.

Mum's just text me, her 44 year old daughter, to tell me "don't wear ripped jeans to the funeral on Monday." The last time I wore ripped jeans was by accident in 2002 when I slut dropped to Hot In Herre by Nelly and my arse fell out. Lessons were learnt, Julia x

The Kremlin has ordered Russian propagandists to declare a supposed “VICTORY over NATO” by the anniversary of Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine on Feb. 24, 2025, based on false narratives about the “WEST's BETRAYAL” and a “US-RUSSIA DEAL.” www.kyivpost.com/post/47568

We need to re-emphasise the idea that politicians going abroad to slag off this country to foreigners in return for money or prestige is a shameful thing to do. Because even though I would guess 75% of normal people instinctively understand this, certain others do not.
