All the cat pictures seem to have been replaced by football friendlies and transfer news. Bit like whack-a-mole for things I'm not interested in.

"I'm just one diarrhoea lettuce short of being able to fit in my Andrew Tate capri pants" is the funniest and most topical thing I have read today.

Only thing that would have improved last night's match would have been the English and French teams unfurling an "Impeach Trump" banner at the end as he and FIFA are now OK with political banners.

Wonder why #bbcnews chose to frame "Tories would reinstate 2 child benefits cap" as Tories "would make reserve soldiers' pay tax free?

"Brexit Will Never Work" – the story continues ...



BREXIT WILL NEVER WORK

Cameron lost and ran away,
Leaving his job to Theresa May.
But all she did was stoke up hate,
Then Johnson came, then Partygate.
Liz Truss was next, but not for long,
Whatever she touched, it all went wrong.
And then came Rishi in his plane,
He called it quits in the pouring rain.
Then Starmer “Got The Tories Out!”
But the sense of change it brought died out.
Keir Starmer painted Labour blue,
So they dumped him soon for someone new.
How many more PMs must fall?
It's Brexit's fault, it slew them all.
"Make Brexit Work" just makes things worse.
It's time to end this Brexit curse!

Jesse Owens got into Nazi Germany in 1936 more easily than coloured footballers and referees can get into the USA today.

When are Trump's opponents going to realise that proposing changes to the law or constitution is pointless. He's breaking multiple existing laws every single day. Marching every couple of months isn't going to work either.

The great thing about renaming Penn Central after Donald Trump is that Pedo has the same number of letters as Penn. Why hasn't it been done already?

There's an obvious difference between Starmer and Chamberlain. Chamberlain didn't have a glaringly obvious historical precedent to guide him.

Farage on pronouns - "I" when he claims it shows his commitment to Clacton. "We" when it turns out he lied. "They" when it saves him £44,000 in stamp duty.

That an unelected advisor does not want to "appease" elected MPs speaks volumes for the way party strategists think about Parliament. MPs are there to represent the concerns of their constituents. Govts that stop listening to MPs - like Thatcher on the poll tax or Blair on Iraq - usually regret it

🙌🏼 I’m not sure who had the amazing idea to invite this constitutional lawyer to a senate hearing that *intended* to prove Biden colluded with Meta to censor conservatives. But she took the opportunity to speak truth to power ✊🏼 on the hypocrite 👑 KING OF FREE SPEECH, Donald Trump, himself. 👏🏼 Brava!

Musk and Trump, Laurel and Hardy. One smaller emotionally insecure one, one big fat angry one. Supposedly on the same team, always arguing, everything they touch turns to sh1t.

Putting a positive spin on the current state of the world. Trump turning the US into a haven for white supremacists offers every other country in the world a competitive advantage by simply using the talents of all the people.

I used to think "journalists" just regurgitated press releases, but it seems they can't even do that. Today Apple have put out a story headlined "Apple to spend more than $500 billion..." and both the Times and Guardian have stories headlined "Apple to invest..."
