For those telling me I'm wrong about Starmer being one of the UK's worst PMs, & that Johnson, Sunak, Truss etc were worse—essentially, none of those people were elected with a 174-seat landslide for change, & immediately opted for continuity, authoritarianism & wooing actual fascists.

"Kier Starmer must resign over a decision I supported and celebrated" is the purest distillation of Anas Sarwar, an absolute worm of a man
NEW: Leader of Scottish Labour is expected to call on the Prime Minister to resign.
Anas Sarwar MSP has hastily arranged a press conference for this afternoon. It’s understood he will set out his position on Sir Keir Starmer

IMO, this is the heart of the X-Men's appeal that no other superhero franchise can match (though other series like Star Trek and Fairy Tail can keep up). When "even among misfits, you're misfits," the X-Men are home.

Here is a true thing and it has nothing to do with sales or marketing or my of that noise.
If your blood family sucks, come be with us. I get the privilege of inviting you to be an honorary X-Man and you get to ride in the Blackbird and steal Gambit’s beer and be part of a family that loves you.

A few things you should know about that galactic "Bluesky map" before promoting it:
1. It's scraped everyone's data, even those who've set visibility to "logged-in users only."
No, developers don't legally have to abide by that, and yes, Bluesky does warn you, but it's still crappy behaviour

![Abuse allegation
In September 2016, the FBI and the Los Angeles Department of Children and Family Services investigated Pitt for child abuse following an incident on a plane, where Pitt was accused by an anonymous person of being "verbally abusive" and "physical" towards one of his children.[252] Pitt was not criminally charged for the incident by the Los Angeles County Department of Children and Family Services, or by the FBI.[253]
In 2022, Jolie filed a countersuit against Pitt during a legal battle over their formerly co-owned vineyard. Jolie's lawyers stated that during negotiations, Pitt had asked Jolie to sign "a nondisclosure agreement prohibiting her from speaking outside of court about his abuse of her and their children."[223] Her complaint stated that he grabbed and shook her during the plane ride, strangled one of their children, and struck another in the face, among other allegations.[223]
On the release of Pitt's 2025 film F1, to much praise from most sources, Angelica Jade Bastién wrote an article published in Vulture criticizing his "rehabilitation", saying, "It isn't that people don't believe what happened to Jolie on that plane—they just don't care."[254]](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:hz4jzmli3n7isthc5zxexuee/bafkreibsfgjiqnejawlgr62nrhzvicdgssfx4ncbd5cjkwjmoit47tzrwy@jpeg)
