I can't even be bothered to share the headline. What an unbelievable cunt.

Phil Hare Is Confused @philhareisconfused.bsky.social · 06/10/2026

This video is disturbing on several levels. It's a video about killing, and it's a video about young people being broken, without realising that's what's happening, in the name of survival. It's horrifying, and incredibly important. Watch it. youtu.be/rqr2sQzYhQw?is=Siva6YasBuE…

I feel a little bit sorry for the Police; I sincerely doubt any of them signed up to arrest nonagenarians for maliciously holding plackards. It's a deeply cynical implementation of a law that wasn't designed for this purpose, and they know it. www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c933kx4…

I wish all YouTube videos were like this. No music. No sponsor bullshit. Just the facts. And what facts they are. Combine this with Canada's aluminium production, and suddenly Europe's interest makes a lot more sense. Pass the maple syrup. youtu.be/Lw09qDaazNw?is=nkmXyjM74HS…

"The government says no one should go to work fearing for their safety and it is making it a specific criminal offence to assault a retail worker." Right. Is that not already covered by other laws, then? www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cdx8dkr…

I have just learned, via the Private Eye podcast below, that Steven Tommy Yaxley Robinson Lennon is going to court next month to sue some Daily Mail journalists. The sad thing, the really 𝘵𝘳𝘢𝘨𝘪𝘤 thing, is that one of them will win. youtu.be/GqNXMniIPMQ?is=6iSFtlQXUBQ…

Just saw this ad. I'm not sure "Find Out Why Our Clients Keep Coming Back To Us" is really the marketing line they want to take.

An advert for an unknown company, the headline of which is "Get You UK Bisa Approved".

9/11 being 25 years ago is strange enough; those 25 years accounting for fully 10% of the USA's existence feels downright weird.
