I think the Simpson have done it again 😭. Seriously though, this is a terrible thing we're jamming into everything.

This is the type of crap I tinker with when I have a few spare minutes #conky #linux

I think our man in London's re-enactment of the Burning of Cork is going well. Always knew he was a plant
[Screenshot of a wretched X post from Ross Kempsell saying] Starmer's allies briefed against a leadership plot to try to smoke it out - but that briefing exploded the question of his leadership. So instead of smoking out a plot, Starmer actually set fire to himself - so in effect he has moved against himself to take himself out as leader

We might be. I had an old pax wardrobe that I had to change to fit into a sloped shed, and then dutifully fill with shite 🤣

Beaming about this and the media giving them airtime. It wasn't solely them, but they'll attempt to latch onto it as if they represent this cohort of people.

"We are a citizen-led, non-partisan protest movement demanding real choice on Ireland’s ballot."

The citizens, Declan Ganley, Elaine Mullaly, Paul Treyvaud, Nick Delehanty, Ivor Cummins and Eddie Hobbs.

Non-partisan eh? A real smorgasbord there alright.

The only thing that'll be high is Elon. I'll add this to the list of things he'll never deliver on, there's even a Wikipedia page for that
Elon saying there'll be universal high income in the future and working will be optional

I hope John Lee would like to put his hypothesis to the test and stand on Shop St. in front of said bullet. Honestly, what dross is this comparing CC to Trump.

Importing this guff from the US should incur a tariff of at least 3 belts of a hurl to the head. #áras25
[Headline] If Connolly stood on Galway's Shop Street and shot someone, it's likely she'd still win She may be about to win, and she almost certainly will not agree, but the way the far-left candidate has glided past repeated controversies this election is very...

Yeah, I do a big eye roll when I see that stuff.

FWIW, she articulates it well in that she voices the hope we all want, however far from reality it may actually be.

It's this comic I believe

Despite not being in the UK, I'm getting this shite for an account for one of the kids. I don't necessarily want to send my ID to comply with some act that doesn't apply to me.

I can't get over this as an answer. Like, did she hear the question, or just not want to hear it?

I read this joyous page turner in the last year or so, and guess who is one of the 4. Anyways, he seems like a deeply dangerous individual.

Sorry, she describes true democrats as only those who chose to sign her nomination... She asked and they said no, and she'll be beating about this for years, and be given a platform for it. Unreal entitlement from her.

And here we have Jennifer supporting the election of someone who has a conviction for assault as well, and not to mention his further chequered past. So she's willing to give people a chance, but not Catherine no? At least Catherine's was a hypothetical.

I heard some Farming eejit going on about this months ago, and extolling the benefits of finally banishing the word milk from milk-alternative packaging, and it is so so pointless. And true enough, we bought this for a lactose intolerant friend we had around, and I'm flummoxed as to the value of it.

Oh sunny Jim. Take the L on this one. First he couldn't recollect the issue at all, and now when he's presented with receipts he now with full clarity says there's inaccuracies 🤣 #Áras25
(Screenshot of Article) “We have reached out to Mr Donald and explained to him that we have been instructed to make the payment of 3,300 euro to him subject to clarifying two issues - we await hearing back from Mr Donald and once those two issues are clarified we can then proceed to close out on the matter,” the statement notes. “From Mr Gavin’s initial consideration of the podcast it is clear there are inaccuracies,” the statement adds

Clicking into the Discover tab, and into a random post and just completely not bothering to understand any context whatsoever must be a release that many many clowns on here love doing.

I think about this webcomic pretty much any night I wake up to pee, which is frequently
Webcomic with 4 panels, depicting the body parts of the brain tucked into bed in one panel, the lungs tucked into bed in another, everyone saying goodnight to each other. In a third panel, the heart is calling out to the kidney and wondering what all the clanging is about. In the last panel it depicts the kidney hammering loudly saying "This piss ain't gonna make itself".
