But why would people devoted to shooting animals as a solution to, er, everything, need to misrepresent anyone? It defies sense!

Shooting Times uses selective quote to shamelessly misrepresent my view on predator culls

A couple of weeks ago, on 24 September, the Shooting Times published a news item in which it was suggested that I support predator culls: The Shooting Times article was supposedly a précis of an ar…

Every day is a good day to point out that 92% of Reform's donations were found to come from figures and groups linked to the fossil fuel industry. @desmog.com

I'd love to know what every comedian who played the Riyadh Comedy Festival thinks of this piece by Jonathan Liew. It's an electrifying read. And really hard to think what any counter-justification from the participating comics would consist of. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

We know what the comedians got out of the Riyadh comedy festival. What about the Saudi regime? | Jonathan Liew

The tawdry event was an ultimately doomed attempt by the Saudi government to buy the kind of authentic grassroots culture it is unwilling to countenance, says Guardian columnist Jonathan Liew

With the world being… gestures wildly at everything… one of the most important things we can still do is laugh - sometimes hysterically, sometimes just to stay sane.

So, with that in mind, I present to you:

People Who Make Me Laugh.

Let me know in the comments who rlse should be added.

By 19, I’d lost both parents. Bullied in
school. Ignored by family. Left out of
my mom’s funeral. Abandoned for
being autistic. Let down by the system.
I nearly gave up. But I didn’t. I’m still
here. Still healing. And that means
something. #WorldMentalHealthDay

RFK Jr confirming he's a complete prick.

Justin Baragona @justinbaragona.bsky.social · 3d

Besides linking Tylenol in pregnant women to autism, RFK Jr. now says circumcision is part of the reason why kids are autistic.

"Children who are circumcised early have double the rate of autism, and it's highly likely because they're given Tylenol. None of this is positive..."

Just seen a headline which asks "Thatcher was born 100 years ago and her reign feels a lifetime away. Why is her effect on the country still so huge?"

It's because she was a massive bastard. Hope that helps x
