I made the ⁦The Guardian⁩ list .. obituary next 😊👍

GBNews quoting Sir Michael Take should be the moment they realise they're too useless to carry on, like when David Owen disbanded the SDP after they got beaten in a by-election by the Monster Raving Loony Party.

Deepfake audio of Keir Starmer doing the rounds will heighten worries about AI. Slightly reassured by what AI created when asked to draw "cute baby with cat".

Landmarks around the world are lit up in solidarity with Israel, including UK Prime Minister. I hope TheShardLondon will light up blue & white to join them. metro.co.uk/2023/10/09/lan…

Guadalcanal beach, 1951. Six years after WW2 ended, eight years after the Battle of Guadalcanal. I wonder if he was a US Marine, or a Japanese soldier. Either way he was a human being. He had a family who never knew where their loved one's body lay. (LIFE/Howard Sochurek)

Another brilliant YouGov moment. How would anyone be doing an online survey if they never use the internet?

I'm all for National Service if we create an unarmed body for it. Think US Peace Corps but with drill and shouting. But anyone who thinks kids should be forced into the military has fundamentally misunderstood the military. And kids.

Sweet Jesus, medical research is a literal horror show. "Retrobulbar hemorrhage was simulated by injecting 22 ml of whole blood into the retrobulbar (intra–conal) space of four orbits of two fresh, unfixed human cadavers."

Twitter is now British! 🇬🇧 No Context Brits

I despise the GOP in general, but Gerald Ford was a good president and a great man. It's ironic - he was never elected POTUS or VP, but was the right man at the right time. Why can't today's Republican Party produce men like Ford instead of worthless scum like Gaetz and Trump?

Rest in Peace, incomparable Private Eye Magazine cartoonist Tony Husband. I wrote this EJ Thribb poem for his birthday a few weeks ago, and was thrilled that he liked it. He will be so missed by so many.

My #NewProfilePic was taken on a working retreat at Padmaloka Buddhist Retreat Centre​ for men (and pigeons) in Surlingham, Norfolk (England).

Me & my "Far Right" gang of British hooligans coming back from causing trouble in the Falklands Islands in 1982.🇬🇧🇫🇰💪🍺🍺🍺🍺

Never thought I'd say "political correctness gone mad" until now. Microsoft Word told me off for calling someone a psychopath. The psychopath: ex-employer's chairman, celebrated 9/11 because it meant he didn't have to talk to our client's project team, all killed in the WTC.

Won't fall off. Paracetamol & codeine have negligible bioavailability applied topically. Caffeine has fractional bioavailability but won't do anything, unless you believe in woo. The water, electrolytes & carbonic acid might help, but cheaper to use Andrews Liver Salts.

Donald Trump makes even George W Bush look like Abe freakin' Lincoln. If he hadn't had his daddy's trust fund money he'd just be another unremarkable psychopathic sex offender who dodged the draft because he was too craven to ever risk anything for anyone else.

Dislike GIFs as a medium of comment, but that nerd forced my hand.

War between Israel and Hamas terrorists may be my fault. Leaving 🇬🇧 for 🇮🇱 in 2 months; now it's on fire. Off to 🇷🇴 for now, then Israel when Hamas are all consigned to Jahannam by Allah. Should have read the Qur'an properly, then those kafarah would know Al-nar awaits. 🔥
