Someone bin Farage; Sick of this creep's corruption. Binface for the win. #haiku

I have accepting cookies for years in the vague hope that adverts will one day to be tailored to my needs. All I seem to see today is Temu ads for women's clothing which verge on being soft porn and wouldn't I like to join the RAF? I'll apply right away; pensioner pilots must be in demand.

STOP PRESS. DONALD TRUMP had 350 bank accounts closed by Capital One because they suspected him of MONEY LAUNDERING. "oh, only suspected then" If it looks like a money laundry but isn't, what is it?

On the upside, Rod Liddle has stopped being a racist. In fact, he is no longer permeated with hate for every minority he doesn't belong to.

Capital One is to Tr**p as Coutts is to Farridge. The blatant corruption among fascists is astounding. Both: "I haven't done anything wrong. It was a political decision" Lies. Banking account closure is no trivial sanction and it's only ever with obvious misdeeds as justification.

If the new #Bluesky CEO wants to do something useful he should (1) get hashtags working properly: we should be able to pick them from a common list after typing in the first few letters (2) update the video uploader so it doesn't amplify the sound and get it working with more codecs (3)...

#Bluesky isn't a leftie echo chamber or a liberal bubble, it's a place where regular users can put gobshites and shitheads in the bin. The new CEO wants more sport here? Fine, but for fucksake get hashtags worth using.

Minister: We're fucked. The drought has really hit food production. Bernard: The food industry says they will import more food. Humphrey: Haven't they been watching the news, Bernard? The northern hemisphere is aflame. Minister: As I said, we're fucked.

If you've noticed Gotham Knights (13ep series, 2023) popping up on Prime Video it's good to see an attempt to make something different instead of re-booting origin stories over and over again as the DC movies do. Don't wait for season two though. Capitalism didn't renew it. Shame. It's not terrible.

Weirdly, despite repeated requests, I haven't had any invitations to Reform press events since I asked a month ago whether Farage was scared of questions about his finances.

Nigel Farage just took a question from a 'journalist' at his press conference, who turned out to be his former chief adviser Raheem Kassam, who asks him why the media are being so unfair to him

fool me once (Vote Leave!) shame on you fool me twice (Vote Reform!) shame on me Does Clacton get it yet?

Hello my starlings

Jan 6 felons: arrested, charged, prosecuted, punished, pardoned. Reflecting pool "vandals": charges dropped; no evidence. But yes, of course MAGA, they're EXACTLY THE SAME. ^ sarcasm "Sarcasm is the use of remarks that mean the opposite of what you say, usually to mock, insult, or show annoyance"

Restore wants a pact with Reform? Is this so they could more easily deport Zia Yusuf?

Reform's wish that the Royal Navy will return small boats to France rather assumes that the RN can enter French territorial waters to do that. They may consider that an act of war. Which, I assume, is exactly what these nutters want. Yet to hear a journalist ask Yusuf et al about this.

Yusuf can't be any part of a deal with Restore, Jon Kay, they'd "send him back where he came from". #bbcbreakfast

Where 'near Boston' means that it's the nearest large town 9 miles away. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

3,000 tonnes of straw and vehicles on fire near Boston

Lincolnshire Police say a cordon has been put in place around the fire at Algakirk near Boston.

Look, Tr**p bombed Iran because accused war criminal Netanyahu persuaded him to. The war will end when Bibi says it can. He'll want all the population in camps, removed or dead and every structure flattened before he will agree to that. That's how he rolls.

Lockdown was coming, Pensioners started early; Always in Lockdown. In isolation To protect the NHS: Hands, face, space. Covid is coming, The goose is getting fat: Goose Inc. PPE. Will they go to jail Who embezzled our taxes? Circle the wagons! Put out a report Saying they didn't Fuck me And you.

My daughter’s university scrutinizes each essay for evidence of AI. The goal is to get a 0% score. This AI-hunting is done by… AI. A recent essay scored 17%. She questioned what the AI thought was AI, since she hadn’t used it. The answer: the uni-issued cover page showing student ID, faculty etc. 🤦🏻‍♂️

ENT doc: I have been listening to your voice and it is my professional opinion that you should stop talking. RFKjr: Look, I know my own throat and speaking like this isn't doing me any harm. ENT: I'm not worried about harm, I welcome harm; stop speaking because everything you say is bollocks.

Yes lockdown was really tough for kids. Lots of those kids are teenagers now so maybe as a thank you our establishments could stop deliberately making even more things worse for them due to a weird systemic hatred of our own youth

It's as if BBC1 have been sent into a panic because there's no Tory Laura show. "Quick, simulcast the BBC news channel before anyone notices".

So, SpaceX's space garbage is going to crash into the moon and make a new crater? If there's really such a thing as karma, SpaceX HQ will be taken out by an asteroid.

Dear Clacton, If it was legal for George Cottrell to make massive donations to Reform, he wouldn't need to try and hide the origin of the money by washing it through his mum's bank account. Please think about how crooked they all are are before placing your X.

It's quite sweet that the right-wing-nuts have just learned about Spain's enclaves in Morocco. They now need to learn where Spain and Morocco are on a map.

I can't decide whether the CD album I just bought, which has three cracks in its case, was damaged during production, at the distributors or by Royal Mail. I will not be accepting wagers at this time. Fidget seems to like it.

In which the Prof lays down some facts because people still haven't learned from what actually happened.

🧵On @thenewsagents.co.uk yesterday, school closures and the lab leak theory were offered as two examples of legitimate questions that were hard to ask. Both have in fact been asked constantly since 2020. But here's a thread on why I think they were wrong and dangerous on school closures 1/12
