🤮
want to follow the news but can't bear thinking about ordinary Iranians, who've been stuck under such an oppressive regime for so long, who maybe got a flicker of hope, briefly, a few months ago, then watched in horror as their friends and relatives got killed by the state, and now this, unspeakable
Omar is season 1, I think. And, to be fair, it is 15 years since I watched it.
Also, definitely in season 1, is the good hearted Bubbles
@quietriotpod.bsky.social there is no light in the wire to show the shade? So wrong! As just two examples - the tenderness between Omar and partner Anders and boy Michael (season 4) caring for younger brothers amidst the chaos of his life - are beautifully heartbreaking cases which make point.
3/3 Did you drive the pink Cadillac hired by Nathan Gill who last year got ten years for taking bribes from a Russian spy?

2/3 So I'm asking the Great British public to help because NF is seeking to be our master.
Were you at school with NF? Worked with him in the City when he was a tin trader? Met him through politics?

1/3 I'm writing a book about Nigel Farage for Headline.
Some of his pals are blanking me.
Is it because after I reported on the killing of a Polish man in Essex in 2016, he said that I had caused him "more misery than any other in 25 years in politics"?

Important to remember that the people most enthusiastic about bombing Iran are almost always the people most hateful towards refugees.
The real threat to democracy doesn't come from 'family voting'. It comes from the losing side refusing go accept they've lost
Grifters have worked out that "I'm just a fearless truth-teller willing to propose the necessary but politically incorrect solution," is a magic formula whereby if you're offensive enough the conversation focuses on whether you should have said it, and misses how your ideas are dumb as hell.
This is disgusting. I am ashamed.
A reminder that white nationalism isn't just abhorrent, it's stupid.
Ukraine agreed to an unconditional ceasefire you proposed almost a year ago, but russia did not. And you simply went with their refusal without any pressure.
Your version of 'diplomacy' is pressuring Ukraine while allowing russia to continue the killings.
Vance on Ukraine: "I'm sure that Vladimir Putin has his military objectives and obviously he hasn't stopped the killing, even though the president wants that very much to happen, but the way to solve this is to continue to engage in diplomacy."
The way to stop the killing was.. to stop the killing.
Kill me now
Thank you for standing with Ukraine; for supporting Ukraine via UNITED24 over these 4 terrible years💙💛
You have made these years less terrible. In fact, you are the reason UNITED24 exists and can help Ukraine stand stronger.
Never forget this. Because we surely won’t.

OTD in 2022 Russian warship Moskva was told “go fuck yourself”. A short while later it fucked itself and sank. In a land war. By a country without a navy.
I remain a master strategist.
Fuck them.
A necessary reminder of what is at stake.
Russia 🇷🇺, is not a member of the EU, Peter 🇭🇺
There are no questions. He is just on Russia's side.
Yes, it is not fair that thousands of Ukrainians are losing their lives in this deadly war that the Russians started and continue every day for four years.
It would be cool if they fucked off back to Russia. They would instantly stop dying after that too.
"So will it be the same act but with a different label?"

"Look at this dumb bitch, taking 20 seconds to give a live answer to one of the most complex geopolitical questions of the 21st century," I smugly write as I fuck up basic titles in an article I wrote in unhurried tranquility with the benefit of internet access, a fact checker, and an editor.
In November 2013 a Ukrainian protest comprising thousands of college students became a Euromaidan of millions.
Normal men and women without strong political views faced down paramilitary thugs in the freezing cold.
Asked why, they said the same thing he does.
"They're beating our children."
