On a call with my 70-something parents… Both of them saying they hope someone does something about this climate change …me explaining that unless it’s on their doorstep, leaders are too corrupt or weak to do a God damn thing.

Jennifer Welch: “Elon Musk, this country’s biggest immigrant welfare queen, when he needs a contract, he just calls up Trump. Same with Jeff Bezos. They are the parasites. It’s not the people way way way way down on the food chain that are making $7.25 a hour”

This is a particularly dangerous way to think about spending in an ecological crisis, where repairing the ecological bearing floor is a long term strategic necessity with often high short term/up front investment costs. So if both public and private finance prioritise short term gains…🤔

Hoo Zoo boasts that is has a "world famous" Capybara, Cinnamon. She is known for her "7 day Great Escape", after making a bid for freedom. Cinnamon's "Great Escape" is only a fun story if you ignore the obvious: she was trying to get out because she was miserable in captivity.

In that state, you need distinctiveness and a function. Go to X if you want to meet Nazis. Go to Truth Social is you want to suck up to the Mango Manbaby. Go to Facebook for the best in fake news. What do you go to Bluesky for? To find the Bluesky community. 3/4

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. You’re only diminishing yourself with comments like this.

11:15am yesterday, our village. Are these the first migrants from Ceuta to reach Dorset? A number of young lads in Cub Scout uniforms leapt out of a minibus & invaded Jill’s shop. They had no idea what Apple Cobbler was and taunted Simple Sally with their woggles. Deport. Now.

Direct, full-time jobs opening Rosebank oilfield would create: 450 D, f-t jobs opening Jackdaw gasfield would create: 27 D, f-t jobs in UK's net-zero economy: 300,000 + 400,000 more on the way D, f-t jobs in the rest of the green economy: 600,000 Is that really the hill Burnham wants to die on?

Your reminder Rod Liddle not only said he couldn't have become a teacher because he "could not remotely conceive of not trying to shag the kids" in The Spectator, but he also wrote laws banning child pornography are "absurd" in The Guardian. Abhorrent.

I never found out because the one thing stopping me from being a teacher was that I could not remotely conceive of not trying to shag the kids. It seemed to me virtually impossible not to, and I was convinced that I'd be right in there, on day one. We're talking secondary school level here, by the way and even then I don't think I'd have dabbled much below year ten, as it is now called. I just thought we ought to clear that up early on. At my old comprehensive school a few teachers were known to be schtupping the pupils; one of them, a female teacher who was extremely foxy in a Pot Noodle scuzzy kind of way she copped off with some fifth-form lad, and another teacher (a man with a guitar and aGuardian

Should it really be a crime to look at child pornography?

I wanted to look at some pictures of child pornography from the internet this week and then tell you all about them, but I couldn'tHow absurd the law is. But at least it is an appropriate reflection of our collective neurosis and confusion about paedophilia generally. The one laudable and necessary aim - to protect children from abuse - has become warped by our consuming, obsessive hatred for those who find children sexually attractive. There is no causal link between viewing child porn and abusing children. And even if there were, it would not be sufficient, within the philosophy of our judicial system, to simply assume that an unpleasant penchant for the former

Colorado River. Humans are the most selfish, ignorant & destructive species on earth. If you have children/grandchildren, you might want to get engaged & be proactive in working with your government officials to save what is left of our natural resources. They will thank you ~
