I’m serious. You literally pay billions to expose your complete ignorance and have the entire world slag you off for it. HUUUUGE masochism vibes here ngl
Fancy owning a platform on which people get to call you (with justification) an addle-brained cunt. The humiliation. It’s barely believable

Seriously though, Elon. How much of an addle-brained cunt to you have to become before you literally implode due to the strain?

Hitler was a far left socialist. Literally in the name of his party!

Replying to @metrodle
@metrodle your map today was wrong. You circled Westminster - or actually Westminster Bridge Pier river stop - but you gave the answer as St James’s Park. Sloppy

Nice to see Chelsea Women reminding Spurs of exactly how far they’ll have to travel if they want to be considered top table #WSL

This is Tommy. Tommy had a question about my allegiances. Listen to the end to hear about his.

Occasionally Twitter/X defaults me to the “For You” timeline rather than “Following” and you get a random sample of what’s on offer in other parts of the platform. And you get to see things - such as that a sizeable part of right-wing America has actually gone certifiably insane

Police are currently sifting through a huge mound of evidence
A man dubbed “Fecalangelo” has been caught on camera dropping a hot one in front of his son at a Bunnings Warehouse in Coffs Harbour. Staff said they’d expected the serial display-toilet pooper to strike after 27 other stores reported recent incidents, with Armidale, Ballina and Grafton all hit earlier this week by the same man. Coffs staff had raised the display toilets off the ground as a proactive measure; unfazed, the man scaled the display and crimped one off in an unplumbed toilet. An email from Bunnings has directed staff to cover every display bowl with Glad Wrap as a preventative measure.

Is there ANY food in the US that isn’t currently contaminated with something horrible?
The FDA has announced a recall of clams due to possible contamination with hepatitis A.

So… if Man City are about to get a massive points deduction, that’s HUGE news for one London club. Yes, I’m talking about Spurs. They won’t be bottom of the table any more. For a while anyway

Very sad to hear this. Bonnie was always a popular interviewee on the News Channel, & one of our favourite regulars on the paper review. We had some fascinating chats discussing which stories to review and she was always charming & interesting - even when I didn’t agree with her!
