- #1C000LEST Day 1 'The Old Gold Shoe' by Lambchop (2000) A miracle of a song. Just enough pain to make it bittersweet rather than mawkish. Put on your headphones, close your eyes and let it take you far away. www.youtube.com/watch?v=zB-m...
- The very wise and very lucky @madcavestudios.com have wisely and luckily bagged the splendid @chaoticute.bsky.social. Stand by for greatness.

- No, you are CRUSHING.
- What a wanker. What an echo of a man. Ugh.
- Chills. 😭 youtu.be/Ox8ZLF6cGM0?...
- Remember: stock markets only affect ordinary people when they go DOWN. When they go up, all that money magically disappears.
- Shortly after the referendum, when I still gave a shellacked shite about holding my tongue, I made a fairly innocuous comment about Brexit. Some flag AVI guy saw my surname and simply replied "Out". Four generations of Britishness stripped away in an instant by someone Labour is actively courting.
- If we're being honest with ourselves, we all knew Ryanair would launch first.
- Damning yet unsurprising. We're becoming a shithole and half of us are loving it.
- Sound of the summer for the 27th consecutive year.
- #1C000LEST Day 33 "Cannonball" by The Breeders (1993) *hears intro, runs to nearest grotty indie club dancefloor* youtu.be/fxvkI9MTQw4?...
- And across TV and radio, only 8% of workers are from working class backgrounds. Our stories deserve to be told by us, not by the children of hedge fund managers.

- Was gonna write in 'Roadrunner', but then I realized Wyle E Coyote always fucks HIMSELF up. Proof that he who seeks vengeance should dig his own grave - albeit in the *exact* shape of his body.
- Bugs fuckin Bunny
- God, we really are saddled with Continuity Tories aren't we. We thought we were finally shot of that passel of pervs and cock ends, but somehow the nightmare continues. Unacceptable.
- A fun game you can play in Liverpool is spotting the buildings that WEREN'T paid for by slavery.
- I've said it before, but the most terrifying and oppressive surveillance apparatus in human history is being developed *IN* AND *BY* DEMOCRACIES just as they threaten to slide into authoritarianism. With its last breath, freedom is handing tyranny the gun it's going to be shot with. Insanity.

- And they still won't get it. Sold the party's soul for nothing.
- I don't buy it. It's not like any other fascist movements were spearheaded by uninspired mediocrities who felt they were owed artistic careers.

- Why do you have 'Colin' *and* 'Co-Lin'?

- It's amazing how much we project onto public figures, innit. I genuinely believed they were all keeping their powder dry until they had the keys. I feel like such a mug.

- They've convinced themselves that our only objection to the Tories was that their evil fuckery was incompetently administered.
- Blaming Morgan McSweeney is all well and good, but Starmer must be a piss poor judge of character to choose a Dominic Cummings pub tribute act as his consiglieri.

- Why would you join the fucking Labour party if these are your convictions though? I don't understand. Be a Tory. Crush the poor and drawn non-exec salaries from three hedge funds. Have fun. Why bother crossing the aisle?

- He clearly can't want power though, because everything he's doing is precision-engineered to get Labour thrown out long before Labour's term is up.

- And he wrote that back in the SEVENTIES. Makes you think.
- State of it.
- The vacuous, flailing prick has gone full Enoch Powell. And it won't even save him... or us.
- The people who like to tell you they're giving you the unvarnished truth never go near this one. There is no fantasy more decadent and thumb-suckingly infantile than racism.
- The Guardian really can't cope with Danny Dyer winning a BAFTA. 🤣🖕
- Blimey. He's not pissing about is he.

- That's my evening internet rabbit hole sorted. Thank you so much!
- A very happy birthday to my dear pal @paulmhd.bsky.social. My comic taste is fucking *exquisite*, frankly - but only because I copy-pasted it entirely from my much smarter friend. Love you, man. My life is so much richer for having you in it. XXXX

- Post the best panel of X-Men you can think of right now.
- Brilliant. If you've ever wondered why so many idiots wilfully misread The Matrix, Dune, Dredd, Blade Runner, and Iain Banks' Culture novels, read this.
