Euthanising the Brewdog

I'll put ot this way: I hope you don't have Seamus on the pod any time soon

Bem-vindo is welcome in Portuguese

I sometimes wonder the world we’d live in had I listened to the voice in my head and sucker-punched Farage when I walked past him with no security detail on the sidewalk outside my Manhattan office in 2017

Some people don’t want power. They want to be the Jester who receives benefits from being near power but with none of the responsibilities nor consequences of being the one in power.

Do you picture yourself as Gary Lineker when you masturbate

The point about Labour Together freaks actually being bad at politics reminds me - and I'm sure I've used this analogy somewhere before - of a discussion about Game of Thrones I had. Ned Stark is demonstrably bad at playing the game - he openly announces his moves to anyone who'll listen w/no sense of self-preservation or planning outside the "rules" - but there's a good argument that Cersei isn't very good either; she does well enough for the first half off the back of Ned's incompetence and the fact that her family held the throne, but after a point you realise there's a difference between being good at the game vs "I can just blow up the equivalent of St. Peter's Cathedral w/all my enemies inside and fuck the consequences." (Yes, Cersei avoided the immediate expected consequences of that action, but that's because the writing was bad by then.)

Riley sounding like he was recording from a bathroom stall is great prep for when he's recording from a bomb shelter later

Increasingly convinced that we need to ban over 65s from voting in exchange for people not being able to cancel them for their shitty beliefs. Let them irrelevantly scream into the void where they can't harm anyone.

Nova - horrible news re Popbitch recently and the side they took between Robin Ince and the terfs…

At what patreon tier can you get some of Hussein's homemade kimchi? Sounds fantastic.

At this rate they're going to run out of 're-' words to use in the insurgent rightist party names. They've got Restore, Reform, Reclaim. They'll need to start using more abstruse words like 'reinvigorate', 'reconquer' (British Éric Zemmour, horrifying thought), 'rejuvinate', but I don't think their supporters can read words that long

Jeremy Kyle is akin to Jerry Springer in that both are human bear baiting. Kyle is unique in that his politics have always been very explicit and easy to pin down, and the manipulation of his subjects is from disdain, where Springer simply doesn't think about the background of the people he chooses to display to America.

i have not been paying attention to who the tories are is "Generic" a real guyor a joke

Alternative title: Reform, Restore, Recycle

Nova's comment about "how did we lose to these fucking people" is very much how I feel about the USSR, as someone who was born way after it collapsed. Like, how does a system (ostensibly) built around science and industrial progress lose to one that, at least under Reagan and Thatcher, did not think either of those things even *existed?* Really confounding stuff.

One thing that you didn't mention in regards to restore going in the direction of reform until a further right party comes along is that within a week of being formed the posting dipshits have crawled from the caves to try and get Jeremy Clarkson on side bigging him up as this massively important cultural figure that will bring onside the workers of Britain instantly because he has a telly show about running a farm he got for tax reduction purposes.

Dark day for us uncles named Andrew.

If Andrew went to Belmarsh, he would go to the "celebrity" wing. He might end up in Tommy Robinson's old cell, and like Tommy inadvertently end up in an episode of "Welcome to HMP Belmarsh with Ross Kemp".

RIP to the brewdog in Cleveland, Ohio - the only brewery I have ever had the experience of ordering a meal and a beer, only receiving a meal, and being informed that the waitress forgot I had ordered a beer

Good to know the doctor who inferno timeline is coming true

You have a perfect prision for Andy: the tower! Stick him in the menagerie, in the lion pit, rename it the Nonce Sconce. People can throw peanuts at him Use some the raven cages for your disgraced PM's. Turn Tyburn into humiliation spectacle of the enemies of the state

The sense of entitlement in the British media-political ecosystems is breathtaking. Its like one of those littoral spaces where the stagnant pools of a semi-dried up river overlap with swampland, and the eels wriggle their way between them to avoid algal blooms while the fish trapped there slowly suffocate. The smell when they die off en masse is incredible, even if scavengers come from hundreds of miles around there is just too much for them to eat and so most of it rots beyond the point where even the most desperate will partake. Writhing seas of maggots become clouds of flies thick enough to clog spiderwebs and fill every ant colony larder

I'm just happy the Tower of London gets some classic action.

So is my say good bye to my uncle shirt like a valuable thing now? Resale somehow to fund socialism?

I maintain Andrew only got get and fell outside the wire cause he made the royalty look cheap and chintzy by basically being Epstein’s dogsbody to throw parties at the various palaces

Hello everyone

TF "Say Goodbye to His Uncle" T-Shirt takes on a scary new precedence for the power of November's Lathe

I bet former Prince Andrew was sweating his balls off under interrogation.
