These are dispiriting times for many touring performers - Birmingham , Cardiff and London all proving hard sells - a deep sense of personal failure crosstownconcerts.seetickets.com/search?c=27&...

@jemmaforte.bsky.social @marina-purkiss.bsky.social and this one is great if you ignore the physical appearance and think about tech bros trying to be human youtube.com/shorts/Lm1yG...

Congratulations! Now don't give it away to "anybody"

I mean if you really want to hear Ed Sheeran without any opening acts you can simply get put on hold with your bank

Until forced to stop, Israel will continue to expand and destroy

Oh, dear, Mr Ferguson. Oh, dear. ID'd through your Instagram, cross-checked against your self-published photos of you at your place of employment, and a phone call. Your head office is talking to your boss, right now. Enjoy the rest of your week.

Tomorrow night, Channel 4 Dispatches airs the findings of a year-long investigation into Tommy Robinson’s finances. Watch it. Then come back here. We’ve got more to show you.

If "legitimate concerns" were considered to excuse illegitimate methods, then nobody from Just Stop Oil or Palestine Action would have been arrested. So we know it doesn't. In fact that phrase is only ever used in one context. Only in that context is uniformed mob intimidation "peaceful protest"

🤨

@mrjamesob.bsky.social I can't call him Honest Bob. Makes him sound loveable like Del Boy. He used children to score a political point via mural erasure so to me he's Child Abuser Jenrick.

@thechrismasontv.bsky.social Anything to say about the C4 investigation? BBC very quiet.

Make your favorite film sound as boring as possible without giving away the title: Broke blokes go panning for gold and come home emptyhanded Humphrey Bogart and Walter Huston.

@mrjamesob.bsky.social A poet who lived here in Sligo I know you're familiar with (re your callers): "The best lack all conviction, while the worst Are full of passionate intensity" - The Second Coming -WB Yeats

If you or a loved one is stuck on the USS Lincoln my signal is nikkimcr.70 and i would LOVE to chat

A trillionaire exists… Meanwhile there’s Trump’s UFC circus The appalling Michelle Obama comment Gwyneth Paltrow shilling for Israel …and Trump’s HUMILIATING $300bn capitulation to Iran All in today’s brand new episode of The Trawl Listen below… podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/t...

"Erreur de Transmission" From French cartoonist "Flock" in 2017

How much of what we see is now: Stupid, wilfully ignorant man says clearly stupid, wilfully ignorant thing, but it's news because he's rich? So sick of it.

Greece has much to learn from ancient American cuisine. The French stole the American word "cuisine" and they're ones with the reputation for food.

😂

This one already has a name: The Farage wasp.

I'm Cool-You've Never Heard Of I know Music,You Don't-The Superiors Better than you-Know All Educated Ear-Exclusive Old Hat-Better Than YOU Think Your Taste Sucks-Smokey Someone Pointless Lists-Impressing Myself Music Ain't Subjective- Gatekeeper Unexpected Entry-Huh? Nellie The Elephant-Toy Dolls

Incidentally, the inscription below the carving of the two phalluses meeting, reads "ΤΟΥΤΟ ΕΜΟΙ ΚΑΙ ΤΟΥΤΟ ΣΟΙ" - THIS ONE IS FOR ME AND THIS ONE IS FOR YOU. Which seems pretty equitable. 😱

I'm not sure why there's any discussion of whether Lebanon is included in the ceasefire or not. You don't want to trust Iran? Don't. But THE KEY MEDIATOR in all of this, the Pakistani Prime Minister, said clearly and unequivocally that Lebanon is included. Israel is violating the ceasefire.

@nikkimcr.bsky.social Hi Nikki, Do you know if there is any truth to this?

New Origin Story is out in the wild: on the most intense industrial dispute in British history

The same geniuses who think Trump, who dodged the draft five times, knows how to win a war also think Trump, who declared bankruptcy six times, knows how to run the economy. That's what Trump Derangement Syndrome actually looks like.

One of my go-to podcasts every week. They've bagged a real one with Nikki McCann Ramirez

youtube.com/watch?v=5jwP... Happy St. Patrick's Day from Ireland 🇮🇪🍀

I have a question. Let's (absolutely wildly) assume: - An MEU of 2000-4000 troops can invade Iran (pop 90 mil); - Can hold the Strait (104 miles long); - Can prevent all attacks on shipping, including by drones; - Don't get picked off by drones themselves. What's next? Do they just stay forever?

UPDATE: There is no war, this is a war, the war ends soon, the war is just beginning, Iran’s nuclear program is gone, Iran could have a nuke in 2 weeks, Iran has no navy, Iran is planting mines, Iran is weak, Iran could attack California, oil is down which is good, oil is up which is good.

The evidence that the U.S. hit the girls’ school in Iran, killing scores of children, keeps growing. It’s horrific and not something from which the media, or anyone else, should just move on.

Just fascinating to see Blair, a man whose reputation was ruined by the Iraq war, advocate joining a war that is exponentially stupider and more chaotic. How is it possible to learn nothing from the worst mistake of your life?

Well, that was fun… • Reform’s “new” cabinet… which is just the old Tory one (cue Benny Hill music) • Farage makes a tit of himself. Again. • Who needs the Equality Act? • And the battle for Gorton & Denton is on! Come join the chaos - new Trawl ep out today. podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/t...

Americans. Remember when your troops made local Germans face what was done in their name? Soon be your turn

youtube.com/watch?v=KvoQ... No wonder Reform are doing so well. These voters are completely unaware of their policies beyond immigration
