All that plus I got my pocket picked!
Question from a Brit: aren’t you worried about President Vance though?
Robert Harris @Robert__Harris X.com Imagine Trump's messages read out by the prosecution at Nuremberg. ("A whole civilisation will die tonight.") They would have hanged any one of the defendants.
Well indeed, and again: this shit is happening because the world did nothing to even impede the obliteration of the Gaza Strip, and the men who did that took it as global permission for them to expand their murderous destruction across the entire region. And here we now are.
What’s that peeking out through the mist? Why, could it be my new book FOG!?
Adapted from Carl Sandburg’s classic poem, my latest book follows the trail of a mischievous cat as he scampers across San Francisco, covering the city in its famous fog 🌁
Preorder Fog now wherever books are sold!
Boris Johnson says Trump back in White House is 'what the world needs' Ex-PM backs disgraced former US president ahead of election, saying he 'won't ditch the Ukrainians'

Will the Artemis crew will come back and find anyone left?
Watching films with kids is a learning experience, put it that way. The seven year olds I know literally *cannot* understand “people will do bad things for money”. I don’t mean they refuse to understand, I mean they cannot comprehend it.
This is what my mother always said to me
He is addicted to attention.
This is what happens when 77 million people take leave of their senses and put a manifestly unqualified, unfit, mentally ill narcissistic man-child in charge of the country and the world's most powerful. military. This is what happens when the media 'bothsides' election coverage.

Might be the greatest opening paragraph of anything ever.
If Corbyn had won the 2019 election and been PM during covid there would be wall-to-wall coverage of the inquiry right now.
I look forward to listening to this. During my lifetime what is called the 'centre ground' has shifted massively to the right, which always makes me think what a meaningless term it is.

A man in a trenchcoat - implicitly Philip Larkin - stands folorn, motionless, looking at people throwing a frisbee. It becomes apparent as the comic progresses that they are trying to play frisbee with him. He stand stock still for the whole comic, watching the frisbee as, panel by panel it soars closer and closer to him]. After contemplating the approaching frisbee for two silent panels, Philip begins his thoughts: Unloosed, unheralded, You soar toward me Across the dying afternoon. bright disc of childhood, Long since thrown wide Of Youth's green imaginings, Your slow declining arc Figures a sky-written truth: We will all succumb, and soon To earth's hard oblivion. [The frisbee hits Philip on the head with a resounding DONK. He falls backwards, to the ground. [Ends]

This isn’t a hallucination, Michael Gove. You’ve never explained the millions you disbursed to buddies with your crony Covid Contracts.
Cashing in on the worst public health crisis in a century should disbar people from public life permanently.
