I don't know exactly how many people #jeremyclarkson employs. But our family business employs 70 people and I call bullshit on him. If you can't make a business work while paying living wages and your fair share of tax, you're shit at business. #toryconference

Thinking about _when_ the Tories became an electoral irrelevance/joke party. It's tempting to think it was at #LizTruss. But she was a symptom. It was when they chose Boris Johnson. That's I think when the nation said, meh if you're not taking this seriously, why should we? #toryconference

Tice needs to understand why "sleepy Joe" or "chyyynah" works even for those of us taking the piss. Then he'll know why confections like "net stoopid zero" and "drill Britain drill" make him sound like such a dumb twat. #bbcaq #aq #anyquestions

Just so we are clear: The 83yo priest on the left is a terrorist. The balaclava-clad men on the right are protestors with legitimate concerns

Apparently it was all pub boasts. Remember when Farage said Trump's "Grab then by the..." was just "locker room talk"? Same vibe. Was a slippery little shit.

So, if I understand Nigel Farage's argument correctly it is: "Everyone I trusted and elevated into a position of responsibility is constantly doing crimes that benefit me but of which I somehow have no knowledge. I am a man with the character, judgement, and intelligence to run the country." Ok.

I decided to watch an episode of #taskmaster from a recentisg season, to see what the fuss is about. People, if this ever had comedy value, it ran out at least 3 series before what I saw. It wasn't just slightly numerous. It was _tired_. As an elderly sheepdog.

I love the #OpenUniversity with all my heart. So it's been hard to see them fuck up every academic, policy, financial and organisational decision since 2010. At this point they can be relied on to make a wrong decision, apropos nothing, where no decision is called for.

For a long time I've missed the comedic idiocy mixed with barking but impotent hatred and spite that made the Daily Mail online comment section so funny. But today I found its modern equal in mumsnet and it's every bit as hilarious.

Paul Reed Smith gets a lot of stick for the tonewood nonsense etc. But there's no other leader of a major guitar company that actually groks guitar and guitar history. Except maybe Jeff Kiesel.

Electing our Prime Ministers next to people in silly costumes is the modern British equivalent of a Roman emperor in a triumphant parade having someone to stand behind them whispering “remember you are mortal”.

Further to my last skeet, I just discovered CeCe DeVille plays the guitar solo in Warrant's Cherry Pie. Presumably hence the "trained professional!" after it.

Hot take: C.C DeVille was a better player than Mick Mars, or at least played catchier riffs and better solos. #poison #motleycrue #glam #sleaze

BTW today's #WhiteHouse press conference is about stealing attention from the US astronauts on #artemis. That's the entire purpose because he can't bear that the world is looking at something other than him.

I'm not making this up. if you're an American stranded in the Middle East and you call the State Department help line, you get a recorded message pretty much telling you to go fuck yourself. thank you for your attention to my extremely angry post about it. link is here: bit.ly/409JSAA

‘please do not rely on the US government for assisted departure or evacuation at this time. there are currently no United States evacuation points.’
— the recorded message you hear when you call the Office of Overseas Citizens Services hotline.
