If you've signed up for (or been conscripted into) Elf on a Shelf and are regretting it, stage a terrible skydiving accident so the nasty little grass has to spend the next month in traction.

Every year we treat ourselves to a new decoration or two for the Christmas tree and this year’s additions are just absolutely outstanding
Tempted to not add anything else as we basically have a muppet Christmas tree

This is all true but
1) under no definition are we currently at war with Venezuela under domestic US law
2) since we aren’t, the initial strike was just as much a murder as the follow up
The failure to understand this by a huge range of actors is really driving me up the wall.

If the Venezuelan sailors were enemy combatants, then the 2nd strike is a war crime.
If the Venezuelan sailors weren’t enemy combatants, then both strikes are criminal murder.
It’s that simple.

The EU are removing their de minimis threshold next year. So that will be the EU added to the growing list of places that I can’t sell to.

Just as you thought food delivery companies couldn't inflict any more misery on society:
Instead of using lowly-paid gig economy contractors to deliver groceries, they're replacing humans with robots, who, in turn, force humans off the pavement into road traffic.

I think one of the reasons the Tories are doing so badly is that they are led by someone with the intellectual curiosity of a whelk, and everyone knows it.
