Introducing “Lead” — the Antonym for Woke That You Didn’t Know You Needed

Sometimes you just can't be bothered unpacking what woke means to the credulous lead, so here's my counter neologism, lead.

Hope you find it useful!

Every now and then, a word sneaks into the cultural bloodstream and becomes both a badge of honour and a punchline, depending on who’s holding the syringe.

There will be no bigger signing this season. All that waiting to spend a bit of cash and FSG have gone and done it. "A dog with 2 d**ks" does not describe enough how happy I am with this.

This article would be lovely to read, but why is this sentence needed?

“In the Shipley area of the city, which is predominantly white, investment in activity clubs saved parents from paying for after-school and holiday activities.”

Bit racist

At last. It was going to happen eventually, but to know there’ll be a new left party before the next general election is very exciting. TFFT
I strongly urge ALL my followers to watch this.

Andrew is spitting facts here and all facts he is spitting are hard ones we all need to face.

Without facing these facts, we will continue declining, suffering, watching our services crumble and our vulnerable suffer.

It is sicking that the far-right, championed by Farage and his followers, have weaponised our kids into domestic terrorist attacks

Farage and that ilk should hang their heads in shame

If you live anywhere that’s in any way affected by Trump’s illegal and stupid tarrifs (hint: that’s everywhere), please watch and share the video below. It’s really important that people understand what’s actually going on right now with #TrumpsTradeWar.
WATCH: If you REALLY want to understand just how lazy, moronic & dishonest Trump’s “math” is, that he claims is the basis for his “reciprocal tariffs” on nations all over the world (spoiler: they aren’t reciprocal), please watch this excellent CBC explanation by Andrew Chang.

Then please share it.

We cannot continue to start so poorly and expect to fluke a result each game. Very poor and lazy first half #LFC
