Cf. the Bezos Post, "Republicans gerrymandering in Texas is fine, actually" b/w "Democrats gerrymandering in Virginia is a threat to democracy"

Well let's see how this strategy of telling "white liberals" to "fuck right off" works out in the local elections

Shabana Mahmood swears at hecklers over Reform UK comments Home secretary accuses protesters of trying to ‘delegitimise’ concerns people have over immigration

Shabana 'Trenchcoat' Mahmood pretending its largely White people who care about her plans to deport Black and Brown people.

“I do think there is that element of it, which is: ‘How dare you, a brown woman, say a thing that we white liberals think you’re not allowed to say?’ Well I’m saying it.”

As I was saying. David Vance is evil.

WHY DID BBC BREAKFAST GIVE REFORM UK A SPECIAL GRAPHIC?

I remember the Vietnam War well. Trump should too — we're the same age.

I was too short to serve and lost good friends in the war. Trump pretended to have bone spurs.

That war was characterized by lies, arrogance, and stupidity.

What's happening in Iran is starting to feel a lot like Vietnam.

David Vance wants to reward extra-judicial murderers. David Vance is evil.

Okay... so I've got a little notebook on my desk where I jot down things to remember. From last night I've got the time I was up to in a film when I started falling asleep and went to bed.

And I've written down 1861 - 1214. Not the faintest idea what this means.

The Onion plans to turn Infowars into a comedy site with satirical echoes of the fringe conspiracy theories that Mr. Jones is known for. Tim Heidecker, one of the comedians behind “Tim and Eric Awesome Show, Great Job!” on Cartoon Network’s Adult Swim, has been hired to serve as “creative director of Infowars.” He said he initially plans to parody Mr. Jones’s “whole modus operandi.” Mr. Heidecker has been working on his impression of Mr. Jones. But eventually, when that joke gets old, Mr. Heidecker said that he hoped to turn Infowars into a destination for independent and experimental comedy. “I just thought it would be just a beautiful joke if we could take this pretty toxic, negative, destructive force of Infowars and rebrand it as this beautiful place for our creativity,” Mr. Heidecker said in an interview. During a recent trip to Philadelphia, he traveled to the Liberty Bell to film a video in character as the new creative director of Infowars.

Get excited.

Absolutely incredible.

NASA Astronaut Reid Wiseman, who commanded Artemis II, took this footage from the far side of the Moon with his iPhone.

Watch with sound on.

Duncan Jones' upcoming #RogueTrooper film has a fantastic (mostly) British cast.

We must require ALL data centers and other extremely large corporate users of electricity to generate their own electricity at their own expense If we don't do this, we are either idiots and/or masochists.

It's going to be even worse the next time they appoint Peter Mandelson

This is particularly funny because InfoWars wrote about me this weekend

With the help of the Sandy Hook families, The Onion has reached a long-awaited deal to take over InfoWars.

We've enlisted the help of @timheidecker.bsky.social, who will be InfoWars' Creative Director.

Please stand by for more.

Erm... Dear BBC - Jenrick is no longer a Tory. Also, get in the bin Jenrick with your stupid question.

The insider trading suspicions looming over Trump's presidency The BBC has found a pattern of spikes in trades ahead of public announcements by the US president.

BBC Investigation: “Some analysts say it bears the hallmarks of illegal insider trading.”

Palantir put out the most cartoonishly evil statement possible. They’re so arrogant and self-confident they don’t seem to believe their fascistic plans can be opposed.

We must get rid of Palantir altogether.

The difference between Richard Tice and Angela Rayner is that Tice knew exactly what he was doing. Rayner was in completely uncharted waters relying on the wisdom of others.
