Operation Save Big Red Dog: TF Live in London feat. Devon
It's the free one!
We performed live at Between the Bridges in London on Sunday, 24th November 2024. Storm Bert was raging. November’s train got canceled due to it being wet. The wind itself took issue with our venue. But we convened before a crowd, joined by ultimate friend of the show Devon from the Kill James Bond podcast, to discuss Boris Johnson’s new tell-all memoir. It is… a lot.

Lol Devon just bombing the end with a KJB plug. 🤣
This is not just a crime, it is a mistake- Talleyrand
I want to know what nate thinks vore is
Boris Johnson 🤝 Marjorie Taylor Greene: threatening their own party by their links to pedophilia
we love a bit of Dev
Can't wait to get my weird joke shirts
Devon's Boris is kind of giving Palpatine
Oh my god the orbit is such a fucking eyesore
The chapter titles are so full of aliterations and Rhymes...
I don't know about anyone else but my brain has DEFINITELY been corrupted by the sweet carbohydrate release of the plantain
I feel like I've just gained an insight into transphobia from, of all people, Boris Johnson, re: his absurd recollections of his conversation with Penny Mordant. Cis men LOOOOOOOOOVE trans women, but they're terrified we're going to detransition, grow a beard, and I guess get famous telling everyone what a middling shag he is?
Culpa? I barely touched her
The bit about TF being the UK’s foremost nonce-hunters awoke something dormant in my brain: Milo needs to make Nate watch Monkey Dust NOW. Nothing is more on point for britainology.
Oh yeah, Monkey Dust would be brilliant. Some of it probably hasn't aged well, but generally remember it being really good. Really good "if David Firth was given a BBC show" kinda vibe.
It's amazing how often Boris is almost right about something and then goes in a completely bizarre wrong direction with it. A good Olympic park can be a genuinely lovely public space. The Beijing Olympic park is great. It's accessible from three different metro stations, has a couple of different outdoor venues and a 10km running course with a real-time leaderboard. It's a nice open green space, not a hideous sculpture in an industrial estate.

Inserting things into other things
I just missed the preorder for the Avignon Popes shirt 😭
Regarding Naps , "they think i'm some kind of Spaniard". Oh Milo. Spot on. I needed a nap today.
Wait is his MO to be like "I fucked up and nobody fixed it?"
also loving the Foamer NUMTOT Representation in the room who, I presume, found a pretext to ride the cable car because it exists
the thing with Boris stealing the documents people are trying to confront him over is insane lol, did anyone ever call him a condescending moron over this? I for one would completely lose my patience if he pulled that on me
Boris's constant use of "leveling up"reminds me of an anedcote about Will.I.Am, where - at some birdbrained tech shit-show he was hosting - he constantly used the verb "batoning", in the sporting sense of handing over a baton to another, but the baton was everything from "an idea" to creativity, or energy or whatever. There's this weird neoliberal instinct to focus on the novelty of a word as a stand-in for the whole. We can't just develop infrastructure, build housing, develop programs for young and longterm-unemployed, etc, because those are things that have already been done. What we "can do" is leveling up, or batoning something. And because we actually can't or won't "do anything", using a redundant neologism is functionally the same as doing it. It's basically a way of politics that Trump has taken to the most extreme degree, where saying you've done something - make america great again - is the same as actually doing "it". The FBI used to be a total mess, but now it's amazing. What has changed, in particular? Nothing, and yet it is so. It's the same with this idiotic level up shit, which - apart from being really juvenile sounding - probably isn't a thing in the material sense, and just a matter of attitude and linguistics (kinda afirmed by Boris constant portrayal of himself as primarily a moral booster, and not, like, a person who "does things."). ...I mean, I say "weird", but it's actually not if you understand it as basically everyone on the political spectrum (save for "real leftists") having internalized as an unshakable truth that "you can't do things, in the practical and material sense, in politics. You can only cheerlead, spin and raise awareness".
Throw your soldiers into refrigeration, and they will prefer death to flight
Boris Johnson leveling up by AOE grinding everyone's nan
Is Nate suggesting that Ulysses is an antisemitic book? It isn't; one of the protagonists, Leopold Bloom, is Jewish and is the victim of antisemitism at the hands of "The Citizen". Joyce is clearly on the side of the sensitive and thoughtful Bloom.
Pretty sure Nate's point was "if these journalists had actually read Ulysses they'd be able to pull some quotes of the anti-Semitism that occurs in the book and say 'this is what Jeremy Corbin loves' so they could further paint him as antisemitic"
‘37 I Am In The ICU’ i am dead
Latin baffle gab is my new favourite phrase

🎵PUMP UP THE MORALE PUMP UP THE MORALE PUMP UP THE MORALE DANCE DANCE🎶
Kill James Bond shout-out to the ship that kills you instantly
Prawn crisps, I ‘ate those
Lmao, I was hoping it was Riley's original copy
Where tf is Nish Kumar?
Love that Devon is so spiritually Australian that they were literally able to accidentally recreate Abbot's actual excuse for the onion from first principles
What if your date to tf live was your sister
Yessss
Nish kumar frantically running away
The pumping will continue until morale improves
until the m’s are pregged
Poor November cant get a decent 🚂
Hell yeah, live show!
I'm happy in my knowledge that I'll never be able to get a normal TF shirt, so just keep making them weirder and weirder!
Truly fabulous
It's the live one.
Been looking forward to this
