Might be a good idea to slip him 50mg Gabapentin before the vet visit - will help all of you and esp. Cookie. And as ever, vets love it when a new/difficult cat arrives in a top loading carrier 😺

In contrast to the coverup of the EPSTEIN crimes here in America, there are ongoing investigations in the UK, France, Turkey, Poland, Latvia & Lithuania that is sure to expose his central, filthy role in the largest crimes against humanity case in world history. #AccountabilityIsComing

I like it, but it comes over as just a wee bit too composed rather than natural, especially with your lovely model's amused smile. It made me stop and think though, which is what good photography is all about.

Yup, it's all just a money making machine. Charlie Kirk was exactly the same. Not the tiniest moral fibre in any part of their body.

RIP to Jesse Jackson. His funeral is today. I wanted to share this clip from his appearance on Sesame Street in 1971. His important words ring just as true today as they did back then.

This is a life and death story for the UK – so why is it being brushed under the carpet? | Aditya Chakrabortty The news that healthy life expectancy is in decline in Britain exposes a serious truth about the state we’re in, says Guardian columnist Aditya Chakrabortty

"..public health experts David Walsh & Gerry McCartney point out how Tory & LD policies effectively killed ordinary Brits. According to their modelling, those service cuts, benefit caps & welfare freezes put an end to the lives of 345,000 British people."

Too many Americans are poorly educated, uninformed and don't seek out trustworthy news. In short, a whole load of US citizens haven't a clue what's actually happening.

It would be brilliant to have a Dundee Courier version with loads of Scottish words. I suppose we'd have to call it WURRDLE...

You need to make it less USA centric. Some answers are impossible for folks who haven't lived in the USA for a while.

Another excellent example of Christian values in the USA, not. These people are vile.

One hope is that Shabana Mahmood gets so extreme with her immigrant hatred that she ends up deporting herself. She's downright evil and dangerous.

I can't see him being alive for a 3rd term. If he does last for just short of another 3 years he'll be gaga.

Imagine having such a level of self delusion that you don't realise no-one believes a word you say. If he was reading a weather forecast everyone would expect the opposite.

ISRAEL: WHY THE HELL ARE WE SUPPORTING THEM...DAILY?
They have universal health care, childcare benefits, subsidized public education and training, among other quality of life benefits.

And here in America we're bitching about SNAP recipients buying a candy bar.

Shabana Mahmood is totally unfit for that job. She's dangerous.

Oh I'm sure most of us are like that here, and I wasn't attacking her. I was just making the point that so many people not engaging with news or favouring poor quality/false news is why we're in this horrendous mess. And yes, some time off from news is no bad thing 😺
