…n even bigger arsehole?

People who don’t know the difference between ‘entomology’ and ‘etymology’ bug us in ways we cannot put into words.

A brief note for Nadhim Zahawi.

😡😡😡😡😡😡 This is the sort of shit Professor Jason Arday was seeing day after day. Allison Pearson is employed by @telegraph.co.uk She is an utterly evil witch. (It also has blood on its hands!) She is trying to delete her X messages, but they seem to have been ‘archived’. Shame eh?

He’s been prime minister for five minutes and he’s already playing with the emergency alert.

Gotta love these 10 "Coward-in-a-Crate" memes!* *a/k/a "Bone-Spurs-in-a-Box" Collect 'em ALL!!! 😂 😍 😜 👍

Just been to see The Odyssey. This bit was scary.

“And now the weather—well, doggone it, but I’m afraid that cold front I told you about yesterday is just baaarrrely going to miss us.”

I don't think there should be a defibrilator on Snowdon. And that's a hill I'm prepared to die on

Arron Banks is helping us send a nice clear message - if you scrutinise the dodgy finances of Reform, you will be sued or put under surveillance. Perfectly normal behaviour from people who want to govern a democracy.

Rather concerningly, the lawyer for the Tate brothers has confused “extradition” with “execution”. Young lawyers note - be careful not to do this in court.

Once again for those at the back: ‘Don’t speak ill of the dead’ is about your great aunt Elsie, who liked a long gin with a short tonic at elevenses, and blew your inheritance money betting on the horses. Speaking ill of absolute monsters is a moral obligation, actually.

"I said it's a bold move by Reform to use the Navy to return migrants. What did I say Roy?" "You said it's an unworkable load of bollocks designed to win back some racist numbskulls from Rupert Lowe and distract attention from Farage's £5m bung"

Clacton bin day leaflet, make sure the local Facebook and tiktok groups have a copy

Reform UK already have a comprehensive plan for social care: me and my rich mates will be just fine thanks and the rest of you can go fuck yourselves.

As though Farage has any worthwhile contribution to offer to the social care debate. Might as well ask my gerbil to answer the Schleswig Holstein question.

A Reform UK councillor shares a post saying a Labour MP “should be shot”? Nigel Farage won’t apologise. Zack Polanski shares an Instagram photo? Zia Yusuf demands police action within 24 hours!! 😡

When the story of why humanity didn't stop climate change is written, it will feature front pages like this. Even as the skies blacken with climate change-induced wildfires, right wing media continue their relentless crusade against measures to tackle it.

US and UK friends, I'm curious: What books were part of your required reading for highschool literature class? Which of them do you remember loving, and which did you loathe?

My favorite part is when you see the rowers in the back

is there a pulitzer for photo captions because if so @theguardian.com just won it

I'm not posting Odyssey memes because one must be wary of GIFs bearing Greeks.
