The most brutal way of telling someone they’re a few sandwiches short of a picnic that I’ve heard in French is t’es pas la truite la plus oxygénée de la rivière. It means “you’re not the most oxygenated trout in the river.”

Mark Zuckerberg is building a data center in Louisiana that will use 3x more electricity than all of New Orleans.
Oligarchs want YOU to pay for these data centers with higher water & electric bills.
Americans must fight back against billionaires who put profits over people.

Perfect Tom Stoppard story from DTel obituary:
His response to a letter from Harold Pinter canvassing support for a proposal to have the Comedy Theatre in London rechristened the Pinter Theatre, “Have you thought, instead, of changing your name to Harold Comedy?”

🇺🇦 Zelensky: The crux of the entire diplomatic situation is that it was Russia, and only Russia, that started this war, and it is Russia, and only Russia, that has been refusing to end it throughout the full-scale invasion.

Donald Trump expects Ukrainians to be ‘grateful’ as he prepares a carve-up of the country with Putin.
We can’t let that happen - Starmer must work with our European allies to stop this stitch-up in its tracks.

The Woman in Black. Original unpublished illustration I made for the book by Susan Hill. Crosshatch pen & rolled printing ink. Some yellowing where masking fluid was applied & removed to leave areas of ink free paper.
£200 + P&P. I ship worldwide but will need to adjust costs to counter TariffBoy

If Shabana Mahmood wants to talk about what's 'tearing Britain apart', let's start with billionaire tax evasion, the cost of living crisis, overflowing prisons, sewage spilling into rivers and streets full of people sleeping rough

Big hard men. Fucking horrific.
NEW: Footage of a US citizen in Chicago being rammed then dragged from her car on her way to work.
Abducted, with no warrant, her family couldn’t find her for hours.
She was later released with NO CHARGE.
A DHS statement said she “violently resisted arrest, injuring two officers”.
You decide…

I miss people using Photoshop to make batshit crazy images. It was funnier. There is also something special about being able to do something lots of people cannot do. Makes the final product worth looking at. You can see the work
