Despite what Trump might want you to believe, New York Mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani is NOT a communist

So why is he constantly being equated to one?

It's a bit complicated but I think I've managed to break down why Trump is villainising him (& it's not just because Trump's an idiot this time)
New Article: Socialism Isn't Communism Or Marxism (Despite What Trump Says)

There seems to be a lot of confusion over the differences between Communism, Socialism, Marxism and Capitalism so let's break it down in a way even the President of the United States can understand

I've seen a lot of people recently saying that Star Trek isn't political, and it shouldn't be

I thoroughly disagree

#StarTrek has *always* been political, even when it was difficult to cover certain events Trek managed it

That's why I wasn't surprised at the contents of this lost episode!

I've been given access to a new film - "Alien: Invasion"

It stars all your favourite MAGAts including Stephen Miller Karoline Leavitt and even Donald Trump in what's bound to be an Oscar winning role

Watch the title sequence here 👇 while we wait for them to #ReleaseTheEpsteinFiles

Hey guys!

I have a new music video out for my track "Last Life" from my "Game Over" EP!

I'd love it if you could check it out and maybe give me a cheeky sub while you're there

(Fair warning for people who are photo sensitive, it's a bit flashy)

Hello All!

I'm excited to announce that my new EP is out!

"Game Over" was inspired by some of the games I've been playing recently. Some are retro, some have impossible bosses and others are just a bit bonkers

It's available on all major streaming platforms

I think I've actually figured out what all this tariff nonsense is about

And it's more sinister than you probably realise

Also, this is supervillain-level 💩 so it's obviously not Trump's idea but I don't recall seeing anything about this in Project 2025 so who's the mastermind?

👇
If you think Trump's Tariffs are just him being foolish and not knowing how they work then I think you're falling for the misdirection

To understand what's going on we need to go back to the 2008 banking crisis

Bear with me because i think I've cracked what's happening

New Explainer: Conspiracy 101 We're All Going To Die Because of DEI

In Trump's first two weeks of office he has signed hundreds of Executive Orders, one of the most controversial is his removal of DEI from Federal government. But what is DEI and what is the impact?

So Microsoft are trying to make Copilot happen by forcing it into all Microsoft 365 accounts

Not only that, they sneakily upped the price of my subscription by £30 because the £59.99 subscription I was on is now classed as "Classic" and doesn't have Copilot

Well, that backfired as I just cancelled

Not me thinking that an external hard drive was knackered because it wouldn't power up so I took the enclosure apart & put the drive in a dock.

Still nothing. It wouldn't power up

Then I realised I'd turned the wrong plug socket on which weirdly meant there was no power🤦
