I wasn’t offended by his fictional cartoon cat, I was bored by his fictional cartoon cat.
flyingrodent@flyingrodent.bsky.social · 2d agoI think the key to understanding this guy is that he’s got all the money he could want, and almost everyone he’s spoken to for twenty years is contractually obliged to answer “Yes Ricky” and “That’s very clever, Ricky”. And yet he’s still absolutely raging, all the time.
The *most* dangerous? I dunno, Dave, I remember a few useful idiots who ran interference for the Iraq war that killed a million people. Whatever happened to those guys?
Crypto shitehawk Kwasi Kwarteng on Sky News at half ten on a Friday night saying Amanda Knox has chosen a strange way to make a living.

Just seen five minutes of Ann Droid. It’s basically Data from Star Trek’s character arc without the charm or wit. Or writing. Or acting that can sell it.

Turns out doing the work and being the change is a lot more of a pain in the arse than carping from the sidelines, eh Jess? Who knew?
h 0 r 5 e@hooved-mammal.bsky.social · 3d agoit's funny. every time Jess gets the kind of opportunity she claims to want, she doesn't like it and prefers to write slop books and go on slop podcasts
Did Britain accidentally become a place where a convicted Neo Nazi who harassed an MP in a really horrifying manner can expect hugely more robust defence from politicians and media against criticism than, say, Gary Lineker can? I would say, no: this was deliberately inflicted upon everyone.
And again with the nonsensical term “anti-immigration protester” in the media. Are they attacking any immigrants? Are white french ppl targeted too? Or are they specifically targeting people who look like they’re from the global South? Everything to avoid saying racist or xenophobe.
Sunder Katwala (sundersays)@sundersays.bsky.social · 3d agoBBC report on violent disorder in Thetford, Norfolk. A lot of effort to balance here re violence & anti-immig protest. What report describes violence targeting people's homes: whether the "alleged asylum seekers" are being misidentified or not is beside the point www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...
Hot on the heels of the “MPs should be allowed to get pissed at work” brouhaha, it’s now howling about vertical drinking. Nothing will make a stout Englishmen imitate the action of the tiger like a threat to getting legless.
The Guardian@theguardian.com · 3d agoI stand to defend vertical drinking. Is a pub that doesn’t allow it a real pub at all? | Simon Jenkins
Hope in every heart.
Adam Bienkov@adambienkov.bsky.social · 3d agoThe continued political silence over the spread of these anti-migrant, anti-refugee pogroms in the UK is a disgrace. This one has been going on for three nights in a row now and the Home Secretary and Prime Minister haven't said a single word about it www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2026...
Love this. We’re going to drink ourselves towards growth and then the added pressure on the economy caused by the problems of increased alcohol abuse will eat the surplus. Ying and yang.

Rod Liddle is Michael Gove’s idea of a generational satirist in the same way that Michael Gove is Michael Gove’s idea of a clever person.
Serious though—I know what our PM thinks about one of these strories, and I'm not sure it's right way round.
Rodney Marques@rodneymarques.bsky.social · 4d agoAndy Burnham has issued an emergency tiktok from his mate's six-berth in Kinmel Bay.
Looks like the Telegraph are bricking it about a potential Reform/Restore coalition knocking over the Tories.
Well, I have no idea who this Arday fella is but every single news outlet in the country really, really, really wants me to know. We already know he was outed by a “race realist” with a grudge, and I suspect Arday probably has dangerous left-wings views about equality and woke and stuff.
flyingrodent@flyingrodent.bsky.social · 4d agoForget everything else about this and just marvel at *Michael Gove and the Spectator* discussing how damaging a serially misleading fantasist can be, whether his bosses feel responsible and how they can claw back respectability.
Look at it as this way: we’ve got the full set. Like finishing a sticker album. It’s an achievement. We can pass the collection onto our children like an heirloom. www.theguardian.com/environment/...
