Pretty difficult to refute a single thing in this perfect assessment of where the f**k we are, from @iandunt.bsky.social:

Cartoon from Der Spiegel shows the world as seen by Trump.

Absolute favourite post about #worldbookday.

Always a joy, Richy!

A photo of the front cover of issue 1670 of Private Eye magazine, with the caption “on shelves now.” The main headline reads “TRUMP ATTACKS IRAN,” with a subheading “HOW OPERATION EPIC FURY UNFOLDED.” The cover features four photo panels set in the situation-room with US political figures seated around a table. Speech bubbles add dialogue: “Is the Supreme Leader dead?” followed by “No, Trump always looks like this!”; “Mission accomplished!” answered with “Yes, I’ve killed the Epstein story”; “What happens next?” with the reply “Popular revolt and regime change,” and a follow-up, “In America?”; and finally, “Why have you started this war?” answered with “So that I can stop it,” alongside “I’ll ring the Nobel Committee.”

Trump Attacks Iran. How Operation Epic Fury unfolded…

The new Private Eye is out now.

Never have I witnessed a small dog trailing a chain of sausages escaping an angry Butcher, or a plump child rewarded by the Vicar, with a gigantic plate of mashed potato & sausages. We've been lied to for years. Children's comics are corporate propaganda for Big Sausage.

This is a truly inspiring story of hope. My lovely pal Juliette never stopped creating and finding joy in the world, even at the darkest of times.

Brexiters insisting “Brexit was never properly implemented” are like a guy who got the idea that he was getting an Aston Martin for Christmas, got socks instead, and is now sitting by his dead Christmas tree in March insisting Christmas hasn’t happened because he hasn’t got his Aston Martin yet.

I've seen the justification that creators need to stay on X to promote their work.
I crunched the numbers and worked out that I sold more books through my friends telling drunk strangers in the pub that I wrote a book than through Twitter.

This one hits hard.

‘Don’t go to the US – not with Trump in charge’: the UK tourist with a valid visa detained by ICE for six weeks Karen Newton was in America on the trip of a lifetime when she was shackled, transported and held for weeks on end. With tourism to the US under increasing strain, she says, ‘If it can happen to me, i...

A British grandmother with a valid visa detained by ICE for 6 weeks.

"So why did ICE detain her, and keep her locked up for so long? ICE officers are paid a bonus every time they detain someone. 'Individual ICE agents get money per head that they detain – the guards told me that,' Karen says."

His blood pressure has got to be through the roof right now, so if anyone has a chance to ask him an aggressive question about the Epstein files, that really could make It happen today.

Come on, reporters. We'll build statues in your honor.

you don’t need ai to show you video of Smooth Operator as sung by Kermit the Frog. you can just use your imagination to do that. and you will use your imagination to do that. you’re doing it right now. you can hear his voice in your head. he’s hitting all the notes. diamond life, indeed.

This is actually quite brilliant, up to and including the final sentence 🔥

Same!

I'm in, write it!

I came to Schitts Creek late but wow, it's astonishing. Absolutely no punching down, a warm and very very funny show with such gorgeous characters and relationships, I miss them and was already planning to re-watch from the start.
COH's character is dreadful and delicious all at once, so talented.

The President really is out there today saying "With that being said, you can't have guns. You can't walk in with guns. You just can't. You can't walk in with guns. You can't do that." And Reader, the Democrats have the chance to do the funniest fucking thing right now...

She's pure evil.

The best of these so far. 10/10

Petition: By-elections to be called automatically when MPs defect to another party When an MP decides they want to defect to another party a by-election should be automatically triggered to allow the constituents the opportunity have their democratic right to agree or not with their...

This makes no sense…

An MP can wake up one morning, ditch the party you elected them for, & sign up to a completely different manifesto…

No thanks

If they defect to a different party, we should get a vote

Sign the petition & help make that law.

You won’t read about this in @telegraph.co.uk…

Social post by President Donald J. Trump that says: 'If the corrupt politicians of Minnesota don’t obey the law and stop the professional agitators and insurrectionists from attacking the Patriots of I.C.E., who are only trying to do their job, I will institute the INSURRECTION ACT, which many Presidents have done before me, and quickly put an end to the travesty that is taking place in that once great State. Thank you for you attention to this matter! President DJT'

Choosing the Insurrection Act over accountability is a grave escalation and yet another example of why he is unfit to lead.

67% of Reform MPs have previously been elected as representatives of the Conservative Party. They broke the country last time; do you trust them to fix it?

Screenshot of a post on X by Marco Foster (@MarcoFoster_) quoting Ana Navarro calling it “ultimate hypocrisy,” contrasting January 6 insurrectionists being treated as patriots and pardoned with a woman who was unarmed and driving away being shot. Below the quote is a video still from The View showing Ana Navarro seated and speaking, wearing a light blue striped blouse, with a blurred outdoor scene behind her and a small timestamp “0:17” on the video thumbnail.

Navarro says it plainly like few others can.

Nadim Zahawi arrived in the UK from Iraq as a child refugee. His family claimed asylum once they were here. Today he has joined Reform who will stop all in country asylum applications. Under his new party, his own family fleeing persecution would be immediately deported.

Screenshot of a post on X by Matt McDermott (@matt…) reading: “Kamala Harris at her final campaign rally:” followed by the quote: “Donald Trump intends to use the United States military against American citizens who simply disagree with him.” Below the text is a video still of Kamala Harris speaking at a podium with the U.S. vice presidential seal, with American flags behind her. A “cc” icon and a speaker icon appear on the video thumbnail.

She warned us. Like Hillary, Kamala was right about everything.
