I’ve had no regular income since June, and am barely getting by on (very meagre) benefits.
Just putting this out there so the right people hate me, as I’ve seen the kind of person who hates fellow tax-paying humans who happen to require income assistance.

One total weirdo happens to like wearing sheets, clanking chains and going BOO. He dies, becomes an extrovert phantom, and all ghosts become stereotyped by association.

Did Mick Jagger gives Giles Martin a bung to put Anthology 4 out like this? Roll on Anthology 5.
Surely all Beatle freaks will have agreed by now that Anthology 4 is a puzzling disappointment of truly surreal proportions. Yet, unlike any other band, the best bits are still the ones that make you laugh out loud. Like this one: #FabFoolsFriday youtube.com/playlist?lis... ✌🏽🎶🃏

Remember, if by any chance you happen to find yourself in such a position as to be able to in any way nullify a racist or fascist of any kind, without doing harm to yourself or innocent people, ALWAYS take out the trash.

This Times article has been brought to my attention. I think the idea is that I'm supposed to feel grateful not to have been written out of history altogether, and I know this is for a charity auction, but this is incorrect, the Blackadder book does contain 100% of the full Bethlehem script!

The question isn't 'Is Nigel Farage a racist piece of shit?' – we've known that pretty clearly since we first heard his name – but it's 'Why are there so many other racist pieces of shit that anyone in this country even has to know the bastard's name at all?'
