Well there’s also been a whole load of other good domestic policies as well, plus big shifts on Israel/Palestine. You do what you want but I’m voting Labour 👍

Got to be The Secret of Monkey Island for me. Memories of playing it with my Dad and solving the puzzles together, the brilliant humour of it, the brilliant soundtrack.

Given that the issue here is foreign interference in our political systems, how welcome do you reckon you are to comment? 🤣

Three panel comic. Panel 1: an underwater submersible opens a latch and drops a red, pill-shaped crappy Bluetooth speaker. A scientist narrates, “we built a Bluetooth speaker to withstand 2000 meters.” Panel 2: the scientist, speaking directly to the camera, continues: “the squids responded really well to Nelly.” Panel 3: on the dark depths of the ocean floor, a group of squids are dancing enthusiastically around the sunken Bluetooth speaker. A couple of them are getting kinda nasty with it to be perfectly honest

Today’s poem is called ‘Not Her Cup of Tea’.
Not Her Cup of Tea

just when 
she thought
it could get no worse

she saw him 
put milk
in her teacup first

A lot of what has gone on to lead us here was unnecessary stealing from the average person. Reversing that and returning to a world in which the rich actually pay tax would be a great start. Right now the future is ai replacing jobs, cryptocurrency and a fridge that comes with a paid subscription.

Strike. And don’t give me that “we wouldn’t do that to our patients” because people are routinely denied healthcare over there. Strikes are effective means of effecting change and both staff and patient needs change.

That’s not so much eugenics as indiscriminate population culling. Eugenics is more like selected breeding. Either way, the USA has fallen and we remain baffled that the world’s most armed populace has allowed it to happen. So much for defence against tyrants eh, yanks?

Your country is already lost to a man who has no regard for it whatsoever. The USA is written off globally until you show you are capable of forming a serious government. The USA, currently, is merely a problem to be solved, not an ally to admire.

I WOKE this morning to
the wonderful sight of a
woodpecker in my garden. By the
time I had made myself a cup of tea,
it had disappeared. What kind of
society do we live in when people
are coming into people's gardens
and stealing woodpeckers?
