I was Jack Janglebones on t'other site.

Retired guitarist. I used to be first-call at TPA Studios when Steve Kent ran it. Played with some people you've heard of. Sometimes more than once. I collect books.

Denizen of the Oak Grove, Wülferhampton.
Pinned
Thanks to: @pileusmedia.bsky.social

This sums up my position, though I was only born in 1961.
Macmillanite, Keynesian, mixed economy... centre-right in the '60s, far-left now.

Rachel Johnson defending her brother on @lbc.co.uk currently just blamed the "statest establishment" for the failures.

"He's getting all the blame and none of the credit" and "he did his best."

Really Rachel? Well his best was appalling. This wasn't a gold club tombola. It was a pandemic.

The usually noisy Nigel Farage is suspiciously quiet today.

What could be the reason...? 🤔

A group of Democratic lawmakers recorded a video telling members of the military that they were not obliged to follow illegal orders. Trump accused the lawmakers of sedition and shared online posts calling for them to be put to death.

Trump is insane.

It’s not just the US that #Putin & #Russia have vowed to “destroy from within.”

They see nations like pawns, playthings, future conquests.

Watching us die needlessly due to systemic failures gives Russians the jollies.

Creating instability & confusion, & violence, does too.

It's January 31st, 2020, and Nathan Gill is celebrating our imminent departure from the EU.... and that terrible idea of a European Army.

Hmm, now I wonder who else would have been delighted about that.

Europe and the UK. We need to step up here. Canada, Australia, I would hope you’d chip in. Japan, South Korea, the US has fallen. We all need a reset. I know who we would want onside.

China has to make a choice if it wants to lead. It needs to enforce international law without bias or favour.
Reuters reports the U.S. is pressuring Ukraine to accept a peace deal by threatening to cut off weapons and intelligence support. Sources say the pressure is heavier than ever, with Washington pushing for a signature by next Thursday.

Extortion disguised as “peace.”

A lot of the people lamenting Marjorie Taylor Greene’s departure from Congress—and celebrating her as some kind of principled maverick—are going to end up eating their words when she reemerges in 2028 to help lead a pro-groper, pro-Fuentes “America First” faction of the GOP.

So as Nigel Farage has a good buddy & a long time prominent member of his Reform party jailed for taking Russian bribes, the BBCs Chris Mason thinks it is Keir Starmer who needs to be questioned over his leadership credentials.
Stop the gossip journalism & seek out a real story… Farage & Russia.

Pitching a horror story in which an England cricket fan goes to sleep while England are winning and wakes up to find out they... didn't stack it and won the test. Said fan immediately knows something is very, very wrong with reality...

I know nothing about cricket btw

The right wing elite are ruthless in protecting their own and getting what they want.
They wanted Johnson. (And what a disaster that was for us).
Now they want Farage. (Would be an off the scale catastrophe for the country).
Time we woke up to the betrayal.

Been thinking… for proven political crimes, including corruption, the removal of the franchise and a ban from any elected position might be additional and pertinent sanctions.

That way we wouldn’t have to ever listen to the graceless bastards again.

My current source of outrage is everyone thinking Oz started in 1939.

Schwartz is talking about another movie to “expand the Oz franchise” like L.Frank Baum and subsequent writers Ruth Plumly Thompson, John R. Neill, Jack Snow, and Eloise Jarvis McGraw haven’t already written 40 books about Oz.
