One of the best actors of her generation. Easily one of the best comedians of all time. As much Catherine O’Hara as we got, it was nowhere near enough.

1/ Others have pointed this out, but there are massive hidden costs in terms of effort and contingency planning to all the Trump threats that never materialize because he never meant them, TACO'd, got talked out of it, or got distracted.
I wanted to talk about why by explaining risk mitigation.

Keir Starmer should condemn Trump’s illegal action in Venezuela.
Maduro is a brutal and illegitimate dictator, but unlawful attacks like this make us all less safe.
Trump is giving a green light to the likes of Putin and Xi to attack other countries with impunity.

Dear media, please don’t bother with a review of the year. We were there. We know what happened. It was a shitshow. Give us a review of next year and make it good. Thanks.

I for one would be happy to skip the customary "year in review" roundups and retrospectives for 2025, given that I'm still trying to process the ongoing horror show, and I'm not ready to relive it, and probably never will be.

The thing about human rights is it protects humans.
That means everybody who is a human.
Not merely the people Nigel Farage decides are human.

Farage is an absent MP, earning a fortune from side grifts. His ‘party’ is in hock to fossil fuel donors. He’s pro Trump, pro austerity (DOGE) and his ‘policies’ are nothing more than ugly populist hogwash that have done real damage to our country.
Would that be so hard to point out #bbclaurak?

A London tennis club attempted to train dogs to replace ball boys and girls at Wimbledon. The trial failed because the dogs didn't want to give the balls back.

Farage and Reform whip up people’s prejudices, then offer to get rid of what they hate.Their power feeds off ignorance and hatred. They make people angrier about the stuff they fear, then promise to fix it. Of course they won’t. But they know who to tell you to blame when they fail.

Reminder: In Putin's view, the "root causes of the crisis" are Ukrainian independence, sovereignty and self-determination.
Second Reminder: The actual root cause of the crisis is Putin.
Second Reminder: The actual root cause of the crisis is Putin.
NEW: At a press conference in Moscow, President Putin says Russia is in favour of a 30 day ceasefire.
But he says Russia has several outstanding issues, including (in his view) that Ukraine could use the time to rearm.
He says any ceasefire must “eliminate the root causes of the crisis”.

Why is it that whenever governments take money from the poor it is incentivising them to work and taking money from the rich is a burden on industry?
Fuck this shit let’s incentivise the rich!
