Tom Harwood saying something silly you say? Must be a day of the week.

All the evidence is that he is struggling with senility and a failing body. He is angry, egotistical and raging. His speeches regularly descend in to broken streams of consciousness. He was already the worst of humanity, but if you think you can be sure he meant what he rambled, go for it 🙄.

Unfortunately there’s more than enough of BlueSky determined that what he said is what he meant. Rather than pointing out he can’t string a cogent sentence together.

Sorry, Trump is the worst of humanity and now raging and angry in his senility. But as with so many rambling speeches he expects the audience to fill the gaps. In this instance the gap is … “a small price to pay to stop them nuking a US city… what should I do let them Nuke LA, nuke San Diego”.

At no point did I say you did call him Shakespearian. No one is saying he didn’t say the words. But the sentence doesn’t make in any grammatical sense. It lurches and leaves spaces which allows for assumptions. Your 100% confident he means that nuking loss Angeles would be a small cost (for what)?

Andy Sage @andyphilip.bsky.social · 06/10/2026
Yes fair enough. Unlike others you are consistent in your messaging. I think it’s the former and I think the rambling inchorent speech of Trump didn’t intend to seek to say that nukeing LA would be small price to pay. He won’t ever clarify that because that would admit he was fallible.

Either he’s mentally unfit or he knows what he’s doing. Which is it? It can’t be both.

Andy Sage @andyphilip.bsky.social · 06/10/2026
Sorry but that’s clearly not what the speech intended to convey. Either he’s a dangerous, evil genius, fully conscious of the words that come out of his out. Or. A senile, deluded, misogynistic, egotistical, racist not fit for office who should be removed by the 25th amendment. He can’t be both.

In a year when the media went into a swivel-eyed frenzy over Jason Arday this morning is feeling a bleak day for anyone interested in the UK possessing a decent press corps.

So if a two year old babbles that Satan comes at a Christmas means they meant to say it? Your president might be a pretty vain, racist, egotistical, pos, but he’s an also a deeply senile and incoherent old man being kept in place by far more ideological and fascist pos’s for their own gain.

Andy Sage @andyphilip.bsky.social · 06/10/2026
Because he doesn’t recognised that the incoherent rambling that came out of his mouth doesn’t reflect what the speech intended to say. Imagine a baby bumbling an incoherent sentence & receiving praise from their parents, of course they’ll coo. That’s all it is, a senile, deluded old man, in nappies.

Andy Sage @andyphilip.bsky.social · 06/10/2026
Yes, in the same way the bumbling words of a 16 month old equate to the words of Shakespeare. Trump is completely incoherent because of senility and rage. Thats it.

Perhaps the overwhelming majority of the uk public are capable of expanding on the premise to include, glass of wine, cup of tea, a coffee, a chai latte, without having paroxysms about the question.

Before and after photos. The first was taken a week ago of pavement plants with Clouded Yellow butterfly (not in anyone’s way) - the second taken today after the West Sussex Council glyphosate spraying machine had been around. The dead plants will not be removed. #banglyphosate #pavementplants

So people are already allowed to store their personal property on public land/realm for free. Now they’re whining that they’re to be charged for actually undertaking works to that public realm whilst then expecting the councils to maintain it for free! Motornormativity off the frigging scale here.

At the point she said “well we’ve talked about that at length before” was point for AB to make clear that she’s likely never allowed anyone to talk at length about complex policy considerations.

Yet Ed didn’t have to courage this morning to condemn the “legitimate concerns” crowd re. Piddington. Gutless. Sod all leadership. Followed by news you think fuel duty should be cut and new NS gasfields opened. Consider my membership card heading back in the post.

Andy Sage @andyphilip.bsky.social · 17/09/2026
I’m sure that @bbcnewsnight.bsky.social will be able to spend lots of airtime justifying the “legitimate concerns” that has led to this. OR it could start educating people that thugs are just thugs and racists are just racists.

As well as the damage to artists, the tidal wave of AI is totally drowning out educational and good travel accounts. We are being buried alive by it. For me to do one post for @tuatha.ie I have to visit the site, edit the images, research info and write a post balanced to a general audience...
An AI post of Poulnabrone Dolmen, though this one is reasonably realistic and not as obvious, you can tell it's AI as Poulnabrone does not have a sea view, also the gentians dont flower there like in the image. But this shows how difficult it is becoming to tell the real from fakeAnother AI image, this time I think it is supposed to be Knowth in the Boyne Valley, this is more obviously fake but only if you know the real siteAnother AI image supposedly representing the Grianán, this is pretty rubbishA truly terrible AI representation of Newgrange
