Marrant. De plus, son anglais est un régal. Les Scousers corrigent instinctivement la stupidité sans fin de l'anglais correct. A friend of US (un ami à nous) est mille fois mieux qu'un friend of OURS (un ami à NOTRE?). Je suis quasiment sûr que c'est déjà du français.

It just keeps getting better and better from this ineffable, generational talent. Some of the subs are clearly at the end of their tether and are relieving their feelings in semi-open mutiny. That headline is a fucking masterpiece. theguardian.com/media/2024/oct…

I hate praising this Carrickfergus cock-womble but 'patience-testing wank' is now my go-to 3-word bad review. That prick, Pushkin, gonna get some.

This is just awful. Comfortless and deeply undeserved. Simon was a lot of things, funny, sharp and brilliantly wicked. But maybe most of all, battered and almost crushed, he was, in his gentle way, an absolutely unflinching fucking warrior. What a fight he fought.

Voyons... Quel membre de ma famille vais-je faire chier dans mon prochain bouquin ?

O putaing! 1990. When I made my first film. The worst documentary in history, the greatest straight-guy love-story ever (me and Orangeboy Glenn Patterson). Deeply shit. But fuck me, pre-ceasefire Belfast was just INCREDIBLY beautiful (as were my eyebrows) youtube.com/watch?v=EhcP18…

Americans are just so adorable...

'Tout le monde a le droit d'être con.' Exasperated and oddly funny. SHE would have beaten Trump hollow.

It should come as no great surprise that a Democratic Party which has abandoned working class people would find that the working class has abandoned them. While the Democratic leadership defends the status quo, the American people are angry and want change. And they’re right.

Very pleased to say the paperback of AUTOBIBLIOGRAPHY is published today. It’s sort of like my ‘Ecce Homo’, but if Nietzsche was from Crumlin and struggling to put his past of substance abuse behind him

Legendary tit

Episode 2

Fucking Americans fucking Americaning...

This is wonderful. McRae is always good but this is truly tender, weary and elegiac. Sports writing doesn't come better than this.

All the years ago I found this half-feral kid selling fleas and farts on an Ulsterbus in Ballymena. Cleaned him up, taught him his letters and (some) numbers, slapped a social conscience into him and sent him into the world. Look at him now!

Nice, l’audience de trop ? Podcast signé juvenelle aurore Janna Behel et Thierry Vimal via France Culture radiofrance.fr/franceculture/…

'Meaniest'! O putain!🤣🤣🤣🤣 These incredible cockwombles! It would take a heart of stone not to laugh... ils sont vraiment Elmer fucking Fudd!

The unsung heroes, Charlie Hebdo's actual readers

C'est surtout Charlie Hebdo qui n'est plus "Charlie". S'il y a bien un endroit en France où on ne peut pas dire ce qu'on pense, en tous cas si on est de gauche, ou même simplement humaniste, c'est bien la rédaction de Charlie Hebdo. 😥
