JD Vance is on a historic roll:
He campaigns for AfD in Germany - they lose.
Invited the Pope to come to US for Trump’s big event - Pope refuses.
Leads peace negotiations with Iran - fails miserably.
Campaigns in Hungary for Orbán - who gets smoked.
An old Soviet joke:
The Home Office has announced that burglars have broken into its premises and stolen the election results. As a result, the elections scheduled for next weekend cannot go ahead.
Let's see how this applies to Hungary. And the US.
Hmm, cocktails. 🍹🍹🍹
Do we get to stone him to death for wearing mixed fabrics? Also, I'm sure I see some shrimp stains on his tie.
What a wacko.
Drenched in mud, a man carries his dog, who is equally drenched in mud and is carrying a fish.
This is the picture I look at when I feel down...
Maybe it'll help others.
@tastinghistory.bsky.social , get in here 😆
Who's going to tell him that the Crusaders were catholics?
Those 2 articles were promptly forwarded to my wife, who is an Icelandic horse trainer and who also has an interest in archaeology.
Many thanks! 😀
A definite win.
Academics will be writing dissertations for decades to come on Iranian propaganda.
Has LEGO tried to Cease and Desist them? 😆
Daughter: What do you call a female Viking?
Me: skjaldmær?
Daughter: No, mommy (*rolls eyes*). A Viqueen.

Aliens as demons, I love the idea... Warhammer 40,000 meets Event Horizon
In the next village, there's a "mobile baker" who brings buns and breads in a car marked "Teilchenbeschleuniger."
It's a great pun...
General usage: "particle accelerator" (like the Large Hadron Collider)
Literal translation: "bun (or tartlet/muffin/croissant) accelerator"
Parodies of men. They look like little boys pretending to be their fathers after finding his tie and whisky.
After the UK announced it would collaborate with Trump, nobody could have seen this coming, right? 🤦♂️
I don't want to know what "Lutefisk" looks, feels, or smells like.
There's something eldritch and unspeakable about that sheep. Definite Lovecraftian vibes there...
Fascinating thread. Saving for later.
This just made my Friday.
I just installed Mint on my office computer. I run a small woodworking business and have been trying to decentralise my systems and make them less US-product dependent.
Switching to Linux was the key. I should have done this, as you did, 20 years ago.
The Terminal still frightens me though. 😆
Just watched the Manosphere documentary last night.
I've seldom felt that a planet-killing asteroid or a global flood would solve any problem at all, but right now, I'd be willing to sacrifice love, art, and science just to get rid of Red Pill ideologies.
🤮🤮🤮
Reading, sure, but do any of them understand the text?
Not measles, "freedom pox."
They'd burst into flame. Time to check those insurance premiums
Only thing I miss from the UK, now that I live in Germany. That and Irn Bru.
I miss the bullet proof hair from back in the 70s. Everyone looked like Leia.
... Marcel Proust's 958 word sentence enters the chat... 🤣
Quite an interesting glance at freedom of speech. I'm not often one to push Youtube influencer crap, but this one stood out as being particularly valid and worth watching.
I'd rather live with Muslims than anywhere near him.
