Remember Alexander Smirnov ?
Yeah, the Russian / Ukrainian serial conman and bankrupt who invented the whole 'Hunter Biden' bullshit and pleaded GUILTY to lying and falsifying records?
Yeah, he just got out of jail and is looking for a full pardon from #Trump.
Pfft. Of course he is.

THIS DAY in 2018, in case you missed it, German Police uncovered a Neo #Nazi Plot to assassinate 100s in a Mass Murder Plot.

THIS DAY in 1492, two of Columbus' crewmen returned to his ship in #Cuba with leaves brought from Taino Indians, which in local fashion they rolled and lit, drawing smoke into their chests, and 'pronouncing the exercise satisfying'.

The right wing has forced out a right winger from the BBC for not being right wing enough and will now talk more about the BBC not being right wing enough in right wing papers and right wing talk shows that hate the BBC for not being right wing enough

True Story :
There was once a Republican #MAGA 'Grassroots' Organisation in the USA called 'Moms For Liberty'.
They wanted to #EndWoke and #BanBooks'.
In 2022-2024 some of them got voted in to School Boards and minor local positions.
In 2024-2025 they all quit or were voted OUT.
The End.

Just found out that Broad Beans / Fava Beans have a very high level of a chemical called L-3,4-dihydroxyphenylalanine, aka Levodopa, aka L-DOPA ... which is a natural dopamine, & a slow-release boost of mood, motivation, and emotional wellbeing.

A bunch of us movie fans go round to each other's houses/flats on a rota, and watch 3 movies on a theme, with food, chosen by vote. We all chip in. My turn tonight.
I speak with (I'm told) a refined 'Estuary' Accent, but I'll be 100% East End Cockney by 9pm.
Innit, guv?
