Everything happening across Iran and other Middle East regions right now is the direct consequence of essentially telling a corrupt, psychotically xenophobic regime that it can get away with committing genocide.

Trump and his fluffers are screaming the phrase "short term pain, long term gain" all over the place to try and justify his dumb fucking war of choice, in the hope maga primates don't think too much about how it represents the opposite of everything he promised and lose faith in their idiot king.
Crude oil prices, showing a very sharp increase in the last day, from around 65 to 101 dollars per barrel..
Oil prices wouldn't be all over the news today if more of our economy was powered by local, secure renewable energy.
This isn't an "energy crisis". It's a fossil fuel crisis.
44% of UK electricity came from renewables in 2025. More of that plus an electrified economy => no more oil shocks.
Even those of us who have completely electrified our heating will still be hit by this chaos as long as the UK government dithers about breaking the link between fossil fuel prices and electricity prices.
@democrats.org Get your Party under control! What the ever loving h*** is wrong with you people?!
Pete Hegseth is a tiny flaccid cock of a man, a barely sentient lump of protein-addled meat; the personification of John Wayne’s cowboy gait, if Wayne were crippled by chronic hemorrhoids; he’s one of Donald Trump’s elusive bone spurs. And a total fucking wanker.

I couldn't keep up with all the software updates.
And everyone else.
Cheap is all a bargain basement politician like Badenoch can afford. Starmer can fuck off, too.

I really need all the Starmer supporters I ever spoke to explain to me how the party that is copying BNP polices and attracting votes from the Tories even as it alienates it's own MPs is still the 'lesser evil' and not just exactly the same evil the left told them it was.
The forever gift of #Brexit
Shooting ourselves in both feet almost daily for 10 years
Trade, exports, inward investment, jobs, growth, economic strength, quality of life, travel, freedom of movement
Idiot racists threw it all away thanks to Farage, Johnson, Tories & tax dodgers

Because the ones at the top are all economic technocrats who answer to corporate interests and despise the socialism that made them.
This is some bullshit, trying to pair these two together. Luckily no normal person could give two stinking fucks what The Economist has to say between bouts of tickling corporate taint.
Good. Fuck them. They decided to go to a place that functions on corruption and slavery, for fucking clicks.

An excellent piece by Monbiot showing exactly how the rightwing nationalist playbook has been singing the same shitty song forever, changing the name of the target to suit the times but nothing else. The same miserable tropes of hatred, utterly without substance.

So Pete Hegseth is trying to turn the Boy Scouts of America into his own version of the Hitler Youth? I guess this shit was inevitable.

Same. Every new story about them is a rage button
Rubio: “Let me tell you, Iran is run by lunatics, religious fanatic lunatics.”
Only in United States can you be Pro-Death Penalty, Pro-War, Pro-Unmanned Drone Bombs, Pro-Nuclear Weapons, Pro-Guns, Pro-Torture, Pro-Land Mines, and still call yourself 'Pro-Life.'
I saw an episode of Detectorists the other day where a character joked, “Nostalgia conferences aren’t what they used to be.”
Would that be Markwayne “I did a misspoke” Mullin? Talk about a lateral move. Mullin is Noem with a dick, just another empty-brained incompetent.
Non-citizens voting in federal elections is already illegal and extremely rare.
So what’s the SAVE Act really about?
Forcing millions of citizens to dig up passports or birth certificates just to register to vote.
Solve a fake problem. Create real barriers. #SaveActTaxesVoters
A miserable, thick piece of shit… fires another one.

A revolting list that proves Mahmood to be utterly lacking in humanity. A dearth reflected in her shark’s arse of a face.
