This is the type of thing I believed in my teenage years. I then spent fifteen years or so thinking it was massively more complex and nuanced and also humdrum than this, and now - having watched this shitshow for about thirty five years - I have concluded that I was correct when I was about 17.

hey, don’t let Obama off the hook, he had the same access to the files from the 2008 Alex Acosta plea deal, which included the flight logs, as everyone else and sat on that too. oddly, it seems Dem presidents *also* have a vested interest in protecting a cabal of wealthy pedophiles
why the fuck didn’t any of this stuff come out when Biden was president

Please make the only person who will implode even quicker on contact with reality than Keir Starmer PM. A man sitting on a princely majority of 500 and with absolutely NO support outside a pack of journalists who will turn on him like hyenas.

I am pleading with you to do this.

If Starmer is so "obviously qualified" why is he so unrelentingly shit
A person is not "qualified" to be PM in the same way as they are qualified to be a surgeon or a mechanic. You can picture Polanski learning the technical aspects of government a lot more easily than you can picture Farage or Starmer acquiring the necessary ethical or humanistic qualities.

'a tough day for the BBC'

Every single day is a tough day for the many various groups of people targeted by the BBC's horrendous right-wing propaganda. So fuck them.
Obviously, it’s been a tough day for the BBC. Big organisations, working under big pressure, will sadly make errors

But I still feel huge pride in hosting a BBC podcast, and having previously spent 11 years making a world-renowned children’s show that no other broadcaster would have made

Once every 20 years or so, the director-general of the BBC is forced to resign for being insufficiently rightwing. Alastair Milne in 1987. Greg Dyke in 2004. Tim Davie in 2025. The great irony is that the BBC was in all cases profoundly biased towards established power. But just not biased enough …

I am surprised and disappointed by this totally unpredictable turn of events. I am confident, however, that Trojena is still on track to host the 2029 Winter Games.

We strip-mined the future, the rich tearing the whole planet apart, the middle class getting bought off with a house. Now the future is the present and the kids who have to grow up in the ruins are asking: where's my future? And the answer is "fuck you, why are you trying to take my house?"
Yes and the punitive turn in education (silent corridors, isolation booths, 3 strikes systems etc) is a product of the fact society has nothing to offer the young.

There’s literally no carrot so it’s stick all the way down.
