Tuning the world's smallest violin for former MP and current wanker Jonathan Gullis. Too much of a no-mark to be swept up into the right-wing talking head circuit, but still too much of a toxic blowhard to return to teaching. It's a big club, Jon, and even you ain't in it.

"Parking/speeding fines are a poor tax" is not a salient take. While poor people do own/operate cars, 1) many poorer people cannot afford to & rely on public transport/walking 2) the above category are also the more vulnerable to bad car operation bc they're not in the cars

the mad thing is, COVID showed us that those most prone to prepper-fantasy-land are the least equipped to handle living in a bunker. they couldn't stay indoors for two weeks without freaking out. the only ones who will make it are the ones who basically already live like this.

Best believe the insurance industry is looking at a place 100m above sea level and 480km from the coast being underwater and thinking: -how can we insure *anything* when this happens in so-called 'resilient' places? -how can we wriggle out of current obligations when this keeps happening?

kinda weird that the tories' route back to power absolutely lies in a Labour-ish democracy ratfuck but there's zero chance any of the current batch do it. they're so doomed as long as they're just appealing to the crypt keepers and turbo weirdos.

Itā€™s one thing for labour to be exactly what I expected them to be, Iā€™m just actually kind of amazed that theyā€™re so sloppy and careless about advertising it.

I donā€™t know who from the ECB is talking on TMS right now but every sentence is just further evidence for why cricket is so fucked under their care. A doddering oaf and of the highest order.

probably biggest source of strain between my and my gf is my insistence that anything that mimics the consistency of a type of poo can be flushed down the toilet.
