I'm the piece of steel wool used to sharpen kitchen knives - inanimate and ultimately futile. Proud Preston.

French forces held a fierce defensive perimeter around Dunkirk and lost 18,000 souls. 40,000 became POWs. Without their resolve we wouldn’t have our nation’s story. It’s estimated 20-60k French resistance fighters died during the war. These fuckers really are vile bastards 😡😡

Jeanne Gibson, aka Rosie the Riveter, died on 29th July 2026 aged 100. In mid 89s while studying Social Sciences degree with the OU, I had to study her. My ex came home, saw a VHS video entitled Rosie the Riveter and promptly binned it, assuming it was a bluey. The daft bint. True story.
