Maybe Keir should demand the heads of major US news networks any time they imply Britain is on the brink of civil war or that we live under sharia law. Or does it not work both ways?

Neither Tim Davie nor Deborah Turness incited an insurrection against the US Capitol. Congressman didn’t have to flee for their lives because of a BBC Panorama edit.
That all happened because of President Donald Trump. If he didn’t resign, it’s truly *insane* that anyone else does.

It’s my birthday today. You know how some people ask for donations to charity on their birthdays? Well, if you so wish, you could make a donation to the actors’ trust on my behalf (via my Kickstarter obviously)
Here’s a piece about why I’m supporting them

I’m angry at the BBC fucking itself over in a vain attempt to appease the right-wing media, of course I am, but the majority of my deep displeasure and fury is aimed squarely at the Murdoch papers, the Mail and the Telegraph. Their toxic bullshit is destroying everything good about this country.

You cannot separate the current nightmare we now inhabit from the collapse/crisis in how rich, powerful middle-aged men perceive masculinity, especially their own insecurities.
I’m sorry, but a goofy looking guy who grew up a privileged son of a pediatrician and has a phd in social theory from the university of Goethe and started in tech by investing an inheritance left to him by his grandfather talking about being a “dude” is very, very funny to me.

Nuremburg trials is the moderate position
He said that the agents would throw food at them to eat. The agents threatened to withhold food for a week and to beat him up if he didn't sign deportation papers. He said he saw others refuse and get beaten/receive no food. He signed because he was afraid.

I have to admit, I never know which generation is which. When I see stories saying (eg) ‘Gen Z Loves Fleetwood Mac’s Rumours, I have no idea how old these people are.

The people who run BBC News need to read this superb skewering of the New York Times and then take a long, hard look at their own dismal failings. This paragraph is particularly pertinent:

This is also absolute bollocks. Anyone who replies a lot but never posts is almost always a dangerous maniac.
The sign of a good social media user is that their Post count is small and their Reply count is big. It means they spend their time participating in discussions rather than constructing zingers to harvest likes.

How long does this current London Ague last? Been ill for a fortnight, with a brief liar’s renaissance in the middle, but now I feel shitter than ever. The Tube, foul incubator of disease even at 7am, is not helping. Coughing cunts aplenty.
