I'm anaspeptic, frasmotic, even compunctuous to have caused you such pericombobulations... Cricket, Whisky and Mountains, given half a chance.

Every factory in Europe needs to be repurposed to munitions, tanks, drones and aircraft immediately. Anything else is inviting disaster.

I only read the phrase "hero voters" for the first time the days ago and I'm already on the mood to tar and feather anyone who uses it unironically

Turns out he did mean most of it and we're so f*cked as a result. These idiots are going to triangulate themselves in knots for five years then hand the country to the far right aren't they.

Rye. It's got a real signature flavour to me that reminds me of a carpet shop and can never get past it.

Dems should be much better on conflict. Just going on Fox every day and talking about how Trump is just a puppet of Musk or whoever. You *know* he'll be watching and it will drive him nuts

No need to follow the news closely if you just assume that whatever the issue or challenge is that the government will do the stupidest thing in response.

We're taking about teachers. A slippery slope argument concedes my point.

"Why isn't the teachers union taking on amazon or Tesco?" I am very smart

"It's the children who come first" and that's why we're making sure that more teachers than ever are giving up the profession because they can make more money and have a better work life balance doing *checks notes* almost literally anything else.

What is technically a W but feels like an L? I'll start...
Duolingo 1000 day streak. Yes, I've been doing this for a thousand days. No, I'm not confident I could handle most basic interactions in French. Même si, bonne journée mes amis!

Incredible that Labour are treating an American far right billionaire trying to buy the next general election as just part of the natural order of things and any steps to prevent this as "political interference". Proper status quo Stockholm syndrome...

The reaction to the winter fuel thing is so interesting. Watching the media show that it is possible to get exercised about hardship but only when it's a favoured demographic.

Remind me why it would be legal for a non UK citizen or resident to donate to a UK political party when, to pick a country at random, it would be illegal in the US?

Remember when they introduced an energy price cap and then every time the price of energy went up they just raised the cap? That was a lark, I muse, as I watch the smart meter spin line a top when we try to use the hot water...

Update: No response to a very polite letter to my MP. So f*ck these guys all the way to the next election. A friend got a response saying "we will consider 6th form pay at a later date" cool cool so pay them fairly in the meantime eh?

So fun fact, the teachers unions accepted a pay deal that excluded 6th form colleges and are now not striking in solidarity with 6th form teachers. Got mine, f*ck your solidarity, eh? Also, f*ck the Labour Party for this too. Just going to Tory their way through the next four years.
