An occasional series of what my Garmin watch is saying after my #HeartBypass.

Started wearing it again about 2 weeks after the op. The watch is basically going “Dude! WTF?”

I need more rest and seem permanently stressed? Ya think? My resting heart rate is higher. Really?

There is absolutely nothing "fair" about Labour's anti-immigration policies.
They will destroy lives, rip families apart and, quite frankly when coupled with Labour's nigh on Trumpian stance on immigration "enforcement ", will lead to mass deportations by the back door

To get beyond Trumpian nonsense about Greenland and talk about what is *really* going on with Arctic security it was my great pleasure to speak to Professor Klaus Dodds. Have a listen👇

This pup found a stick shaped like an old timey pipe earlier today and has already solved three mysteries. 13/10
a brown wire-haired pup stands on a wooden deck in a grassy yard. he looks at us with golden eyes and his right ear flipped inside out. he has a pipe-shaped stick in his mouth, giving him the appearance of a sophisticated and dapper gentleman. just give him a deerstalker cap and a cloak, and he'd give Sherlock Holmes a run for his money.

If you prefer the one on the right to the one on the left then I am afraid that we can no longer be friends.

Yes. The one on the right has a black background. I have a complete sense of humour failure about this.

So as to inform debate and promote the public understanding of law, these are the four elements of the offence of Misconduct in Public Office.

From a 2004 Attorney General's reference, at www.bailii.org/ew/cases/EWC...
The circumstances in which the offence may be committed are broad and the conduct which may give rise to it is diverse. A summary of its elements must be considered on the basis of the contents of the preceding paragraphs. The elements of the offence of misconduct in a public office are: 1. A public officer acting as such (paragraph 54). 2. Wilfully neglects to perform his duty and/or wilfully misconducts himself (paragraphs 28, 30, 45 and 55). 3. To such a degree as to amount to an abuse of the public's trust in the office holder (paragraphs 46 and 56 to 59). 4. Without reasonable excuse or justification (paragraph 60). As with other criminal charges, it will be for the judge to decide whether there is evidence capable of establishing guilt of the offence and, if so, for the jury to decide whether the offence is proved.

Let’s clarify this.

Steven Bannon takes Epstein‘s money to fund far right activities in Europe which Nigel Farage attends & benefits from but the UK media have decided that this isn’t worth mentioning or investigating.

1 And lo, there came upon the land a time of great Noticing, and many things were Noticed which had gone unseen 2 And the Hacks spake, saying, Whom could’ve known the taking bribes and wrecking his party with bullshit terror adviser guy was a Mandelson plant 3 And, it is a show, that is made of shit
Oli Dugmore ® INS @OliDugmore • 1h Mandelson was mentoring McSweeney From the aftermath of the Hartlepool by-election to everything that followed - from the reshuffles and internal feuds to the candidate selections and Downing Street manoeuvrings - Mandelson has been there, available to advise the Starmer operation. As one person who worked with McSweeney in opposition puts it, "Morgan wouldn't breathe without consulting Mandelson first." "They talked all the time," observes another. Mandelson was a frequent visitor at McSweeney's home in rural Scotland. The once-close pair have not seen each other since Mandelson's sacking, according to two people familiar with the matter, and are no longer in regular contact.

Der Spiegel berichtet darüber _wie_ sehr der KI-Visionär Joscha Bach durch Epstein unterstützt wurde.

Die zentrale Frage muss aber sein: Warum passen Transhumanismus und "KI" als Narrative so perfekt in das Weltbild eines Soziopathen wie Epstein? Warum sollten wir das als Gesellschaft mitgehen?

Peter Mandelson is telling the truth on one thing: the idea he was bought for a $4k “bursary” or a $75k gift is ridiculous

The real incentive was a post-government payday - one so big he *rejected* a $3–5m-a-year offer

And Epstein enabled that payday

Here’s the evidence. 🧵

Discworld QOTD, from I Shall Wear Midnight
“No one controls the music, Mr. Pretty - you know that. It just turns up when people have had enough. No one knows where it starts. People look around, and catch on another's eye, and give each other a little nod, and other people see that. Other people catch their eye and so, very slowly, the music starts and somebody picks up a spoon and bangs it on a plate, and then somebody else bangs a jug on the table and boots starts to stamp on the floor, louder and louder. It is the sound of anger, it is the sound of people who have had enough. Do you want to face the music?

Democrats want commonsense reform for ICE:

End the roving patrols and racial profiling.

Take accountability and abide by the same rules as local police.

Masks need to come off, body cameras need to stay on—no secret police in the United States of America.
