Good to know our media treat war and death as an opportunity to roll out an arguably terrible play on words...
Front page from the Metro newspaper with an arguably terrible pun about Donald Trump and armageddon.

Seriously, what kind of argument is this?

The material is available TO BUY worldwide.

Clip from the BBC article reads: "Others point out that material made by the likes of Elton John is available worldwide"

Obviously it seems weird to "like" a post like this but I appreciate the reporting and wish you solidarity against the Russian war criminals.

It's also pretty jarring to see these posts next to each other:

Like, you're not going into an election. Why are you talking about "beating" another party?

How about enacting some policies that help people?

Actually govern.
Quote from the guardian article: One MP involved in the discussions, which include dozens of MPs, said: “There is a major focus now on how to beat Reform. Various groups have been set up and we have been talking to Downing Street".

Fears about a sign?

Right, that's definitely the real tragedy here... 🫠
Image from BBC News app with a video of wildfires is the USA and text overlay that reads "Fires reach Hollywood with fears iconic sign could be at risk".

A cartoon of a man sweating over the choice between two options. The first reads "Take money from a billionaire", the second reads " Be racist towards immigrants".

Darkly ironic that these two posts appear next to each other in my feed...
2 posts on blue-sky, the first quotes a bbc news story about a podcast where harmful health misinformation goes unchallenged, the second encourages people to get vaccines and quotes a news story about 3 deaths and over 400 hospitalisations from the flu so far this winter.

Haven't done the post a pic of your cat/dog yet and these two are getting along this morning so...
A brown German Short-haired Pointer and a Calico cat both lying on a bed. The dogs head is curled towards the cat and his eyes look at her imploring. The cat ignores the dog. A close up of a Calico cat lying on a bed with her chin resting on the grey waffle blanket. Her eyes are half closed as she relaxes.
