Chuffed with the guitar mod I've done. Bought this LP Jnr for £70 years ago. Replaced plastic nut for a Tusq, tuners with Wilkinson Ez-loks, pickup with a Warman Destroyer, bridge with adjustable Vanson wraparound, all screws and knobs replaced for black ones. Plays awesome, looks great, sounds top!

Everyone assumes that Pluto would be pissed off about being de-classified as a planet, but nobody considers that maybe it doesn't want the responsibility of a planet and is quite happy just bumming around the solar system with the other dwarf planets.

Reform is racist.
Let’s just say it.
Loudly and often.
They’re racist.
Don’t take them on on how they plan to fund their nonsense.
They don’t care.
They don’t say it because they’ve worked it out.
They say it for headlines and for voters who want prejudice as policy.
They’re racist.
They’re failure.

F*cking journalistic scum from BBC, Sky, and LBC are complicit with Farage’s bullshit - polishing his image, soft-pedalling his hypocrisy, and giving him endless airtime.

Come, you masters of war 
You that build the big guns
You that build the death planes
You that build all the bombs
You that hide behind walls
You that hide behind desks
I just want you to know

Have you heard Part 1 of our BRAND NEW #UNCANNY Summer Special case - The Torrelaguna House?

Here's one of our witnesses, Paul, describing what he saw. 👻

It is about to get a whole lot more sinister in Part 2 which drops on FRIDAY!

Who's feeling just a little bit scared? 😱

The BBC is explicitly, consciously pivoting right to pander to a party with just 5 MPs.
Where's the outrage?
Where's the coverage?!
They are converting our national broadcaster into a mouthpiece for the far right and no one is doing anything about it!

What?!?!?
BREAKING: Federal agents in plain clothes and unmarked cars tried to snatch 1st graders from LA elementary schools—told staff they had “parental consent.”

They lied. When pressed, they HID THEIR IDS. DHS admits they sent them. This wasn’t a welfare check. It was a test run for a police state.

Watch the slow motion: it appears to me that the officers discuss the photographer and reporter before the one on the end fires on them (it looks to me like he's aiming at the camera, not the reporter, but you decide)
