Starmer you cunt - *you*, yes *you*, wimp, are in fact “inappropriate” and “appalling” and such an incredible disappointment it’s breathtaking. *YOU*, you soulless mediocrity. So “fuck” - to paraphrase a chant - “you”. You’ve failed all of us, every one of us, and do so more every fucking day.

At last around to reading @markabowles.bsky.social All My Precious Madness via @galleybeggars.bsky.social and it’s fucking great. Feel an intense affinity to the protagonist, for good or ill. Guy’s quite right about coffee, about the awe in everywhichwhere.
