Hypothetically if someone was accused of having sex with goats by over 30 different people and regularly denied it, but also dropped very public hints about how much he liked to have sex with goats for decades, and ran a goat pageant to find the best looking goats, and was best friends with someone who got convicted of fucking goats and trafficking goats to friends all over the world who also liked to fuck goats, and his name was in the classified goat fucker chronicles 5,000 times, and he wished other goat fuckers well in prison, what do you think the odds are that person is also a goat fucker?
The fact that a second strike like that in an armed conflict is definitely a war crime should not completely negate the fact that *there is no war* and ALL the strikes are cold-blooded murder. The whole chain of command are murderers.
Last week's was about the size of the public housing waiting list. I reckon this week's was about the size of the elective surgery waiting list. Nowhere near the size of the outpatient appointment waiting list as some have claimed.
There was a report on the Moody's downgrade in Thursdays paper.
Sorry, has been a busy week. Doing my best.
Polymarket tweets: "BREAKING: Zohran Mamdani to require all New York elementary school students to learn Arabic numerals." Laura Loomer replies: "You know things are bad when you can't tell if this is real or a joke. Dear God. It's real. Isn't it?"
when I was young, i used to wonder how people like this would fare in life, as they didn't seem suited for gainful employment. it turns out, the internet allowed them to accumulate a massive audience of similar idiots, enriching them and turning them into a presidential advisor
First time in a long time, isn't it?

I love this for her. Karoline Leavitt is now the official face of covering for Jeffrey Epstein and friends. ❤️❤️❤️
QANON CULTIST IN 2017: "In this 1,879 page thread I will unravel the byzantine system of codewords and phrases the global elite use to mask their pedophile cabal."
JEFFREY EPSTEIN WRITING AN EMAIL AT THE SAME TIME: "helo its me jeff had fun cmmitting sex crimes wit u lst weeknd"
The allegation here is that wealthy tourists paid to be able to shoot human beings. Perhaps killing wildlife wasn't enough for them. If true, psychopathic scarcely begins to cover it.

Everything's going fine, thanks for asking.
OK, that's really handy, thanks. Now what's the best way to clean hair and bone fragments out of a wood chipper?
Grog's rule of privatisation:
"The day you decide to allow the private sector deliver a public service is also the day you should set the future date for the Royal Commission into abuses in the system."
Government style ad in watercolour. Image of a burglar stealing a painting from the wall of a home. Tagline: "It's not theft... if you say you're using it to train your AI algorithm". Body text: "Theft is now legal, so we can boost the economy by eliminating jobs. If that doesn't make any sense, ask a chatbot to explain it to you." HM government logo in the corner.

Ooooh, did anyone record it?
What is the difference between "scraping the ocean floor" and "running aground?"
Today is a day when arts degrees are worthless, but the product of those degrees is so valuable it would kill an entire industry if they were made to pay for it.
Shame on Deloitte. Bigger shame on Govt for using them for core public sector work: $440k contract for rubbish: “Deloitte has admitted to using generative AI for a core analytical task; but it failed to disclose this in the first place.”
“Terrible things are happening outside. Poor helpless people are being dragged out of their homes. Families are torn apart. Men, women, and children are separated. Children come home from school to find that their parents have disappeared.”

Did you read the story or just the headline?
Brave call.
The Trump administration spent $167,000 to destroy $9.7 million worth of birth control and other contraceptives that were supposed to go to low-income countries. Imagine hating helping so much that you’d actually spend money just to make sure others don’t get help.
Lowering the flags on 9/11 at the Guantanamo Bay McDonald's for Charlie Kirk is the most dril tweet thing that's ever happened
Two measures of music in common time on perpetual repeat. Quarter note equals 80. Three voices needed. Children's choir, which screams any sound they want on the first beat, sforzando. And then silent. Ar -15 which keeps a steady, nonstop beat. And Congress, which is always silent
