By “Will I, Won’t I” he means he’s umming and aahing about whether to stick the whole thing up his dirtbox.

I don’t like subtweeting people I consider online friends, but there is a subset of people who are very worried about the ongoing radicalisation of our political elite but won’t ever acknowledge the echoes with the radicalisation of their colleagues on trans rights
And few who are sympathetic to us, some who are friendly with me on here, will ever stick their head above the parapet

Seeing accounts you respect engaging in Whamageddon is like walking downstairs and seeing your mum doing a line of coke. Day’s ruined
I’d vote Labour again if they made participating in Whamageddon a capital offence. Not wanting to listen to Last Christmas should get you put on the register.

This doesn't make capitalism the best we could possibly have it!
The problem is people are so used to socialism as a utopian pitch for freedom from contemporary wants that Hypothetical Utopia Socialism is compared to Extant Having to Administer Getting People To Do Necessary Jobs Capitalism.

Probably for the best I don’t try and promote my diet app in between posts that are like “hey guys look at the new M&S Chocolate, Bacon And Lard Croutons, I’m definitely not binge eating them in between an entire Lidl bakery lmao!”

PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT: M&S' £12 "BIG TIN" of chocolates is exactly how you remember Quality Street was as a child, i.e. it's actually a big fucking tin full to the brim of chocolate and not a half-filled plastic tub of sadness

Yeah sorry I don't know who is left arguing that Silksong isn't overtuned but HK is like Super Mario Bros in comparison. The grub challenges in HK are easier than the *normal platforming* in Silksong

It still kind of freaks my nut out that it used to be you would have actual local adverts on TV, for just like random businesses, whereas now you basically *have* to be Coca Cola or it’s not happening.
Just interesting to think how insanely different the pre Internet advertising world was
You want to reach your customers? Uhh I guess you put an ad in the paper or put up a billboard. Maybe a radio ad. Television if you're Coca Cola

I'm in a vintage store with a bunch of old Playboy magazines from the '80s.
A vision of the beauty of long-gone ages.
That is, the damn things are an inch thick, packed with full-page ads. Journalism was so lucrative

There are some truly unhinged bits in the piece about Glasman, as to be expected when dealing with Glasman, but seriously what the actual? That's...one hell of a conflation of terminology.

This is pretty striking and makes me wonder exactly what Labour have been up to in making policy seemingly in response to / fear of the former rather than the middle group.

The Home Secretary explaining that the rise in racist violence is, actually, the natural response to higher levels of immigration is a state of affairs that can't exist without the government having largely decided that racist violence is, if not legitimate, at least understandable.

The whole reason we do progressive income taxation rather than wealth taxes is for the same reason I eat three meals a day rather than a 40,000kcal banquet once a year
I’m so tired of hearing about “the billionaires” you wouldn’t believe. Like sorry but even if you literally expropriated Elon’s entire net worth, congratulations - you have funded 6.8% of the annual US federal budget, exactly once!
