I saw the attached post from Blue Oleta and it really hit me how stupid I have been. Instead of owning recordings of music and films and TV programmes on CD and DVD I’m now expected to rent them on a streaming service. I’ve avoided this with music using MP3 players. And I never left paper books.

Piddington is for local people.

I know experts come in for a lot of of abuse these days, but seriously, it needs a psychologist and body language expert to tell you the guy is dead and a puppet?

I call him a RACIST. You take the P from RAPIST and replace it with a C and you get the word racist. I can do that because I’m like a smart person, a stable genius, and I know words, I have the best words. Of course, both apply.

This isn’t stopping another candidate from throwing his hat into the ring for 2028 and he doesn’t have a body either.

You can’t trust those Iranians to do anything right. They lost the war multiple times, but keep fighting; they won’t open the strait that Trump closed; they had a leader blown up but replaced him with Mark2; they get threatened with Armageddon but keep fighting! Why do they keep getting it wrong?

This is a real headline upon which I pass no comment whatsoever.
