Think about all the evil assholes in this administration.

They *all* expect to die of old age, obscenely wealthy, surrounded by family, because that is how the US has allowed *every single previous evil asshole* to live after doing their atrocities.

They learned they will never be punished.

As always, the West will dismantle itself for Israel's genocide. Now the UK is openly replacing impartial judges days before important Palestine cases wrap up, without any explanation or clarification. Any pretense of fairness in the legal system is gone.

The "liver, fava beans and a nice chianti" line in Silence Of The Lambs is a little joke for psychiatrists in the audience - those foods cannot be consumed with the meds (monoamine oxidase inhibitors) that Lecter is supposed to be taking.

The reason your energy bills are so high and more volatile than they should be? It’s because the global price of gas sets the price of all our green energy in the UK – its madness.

Elon making a robot that pathetically glazes him is extremely embarrassing, proves that generative AI is an instrument of fascism, *and* reveals how cognitively and emotionally devastating having obscene wealth is.

Any normal person would experience deep shame doing this, a billionaire cannot.
