While i agree with fat Jimmy here that the November elections will never be certified, i don't think that the US will descend into civil war. Either way, it's going to be wild.

This is priceless. Check out how local news is reporting on Sen Eric Schmidt’s clown-show grilling of Jack Smith. They found Jack Smith at the game… “Top corner, section 109, row 1. In fact, that seat doesn’t even exist in Atlanta.”

It only feels “radically progressive” because we’ve spent 40 years normalising radically regressive ideas. This was broadly how Britain worked from 1945–79, when average GDP growth was 2.6% a year — compared with 1.9% in the post-Thatcher years. It works www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

🚨 BREAKING 🚨 Burnham: "I will not allow it to continue like this. Today I can confirm Angela Eagle will present a strengthened water bill to Parliament. The center piece of that bill will be this. The repeal of Margaret Thatcher's ideological ban on public ownership of water companies."

Top driving tip.... If there's a *long* line of single lane traffic queuing to go through roadworks, please don't use the empty *right turn only* lane next to it to queue jump because people will get upset and assume that you're a massive cunt. #AudiWanker
