Well, those are the last words on the first draft of my first ever novel. I started writing it 3 years ago, when much more unwell, but frustrated enough & bored enough to need a creative outlet. As always with these things, it feels quietly anticlimactic, so I’m marking it because I feel I need to
Some really eye watering stuff in here: Also worth noting paedophile convictions along *everything else*. I haven’t seen anyone reference that
Early unconfirmed reports of vice president JD Vance making a swift exit in a taxi from the offices of Reform UK in #Makerfield
Nice to see that Sean Ryder’s been given a role managing the Czech men’s football team
As opposed to the normal “woke” Davos, where billionaires decide what they’ll do with our little planet
Nothing more convincing than a man who ends his sentences with 3 exclamation marks #discworld #pratchett
How many race riots will it take for the government to even stop using the platform owned and run by the Nazi who actively incites race riots? Asking for a friend’s country
Right right right, so Tommy “scourge of the nonces” Robinson is in Moscow whipping up race riots because he is concerned about women and girls yeah? Is that why he’s chumming up with this child abuser? Right right right
Bro this is CUISINE. OP misses these 2 E Ldn favourites tho 1: Jamaican patty 🇯🇲 spicy, salty, add hot sauce, coco bread if you like - best cold day pick me up 2: Bengali singara: like a samosa but thicker pastry and the filling’s often 🔥 🔥☄️ off the charts as they’re made for locals 🇧🇩
Resisting the urge to post every single one of the flowers in bloom now that I have a garden but COME ON
Just what the fuck is happening in this country?? From this story www.theguardian.com/society/2026...
I miss Ben Zephaniah. He would have something heart-rendingly powerful to say about the times we’re living in
I know we’re all just trying to do whatever the hell we can do out here but i really just don’t get the thought process behind this kind of keyboard activism. Like, how much upset do you think sharing a bad picture on a niche AF microblogging site is going to cause?
Bro if you thought this country was silly, wait til you see my man in the melted marshmallow keep a straight face as a lady walks by carrying a HAT ON A STICK
Why I wouldn’t be attending today’s antisemitism rally even if it were a physical possibility to me. 👇🏼 👇🏼 So instead of marching through London, I’ll be lying down in Bristol. But doing it in a very pointed and deliberate way. Maybe I’ll make a lollipop
(5) but let’s look how the Brit establishment kick into gear when a Lefty Jew gets into a position of power. Remember Ed Miliband? All the coverage focused on his Otherness, his foreignness. And this Sun headline is a Freudian buffet. “He’s not LIKE you. He shouldn’t really eat BACON, look. 🐷 “
(4) The Right just can’t help themselves when their target is Left wing Jews. Even when they are feted and invited to 🇮🇱 and paraded around like some kind of angry coke-head Shield of the Jews. Here’s “Tommy Robinson” some weeks back in a post-line rant in his car.
(3) Jews make common cause with. Let’s look at George Soros: routinely hated by the Right for his political philanthropy. Establishment is either completely blind; or wilfully complicit in antisemitic tropes used to denigrate him and his work.
Given that we agree there have been many disturbing attacks against the Jewish population in 🏴 recently, leading many to feel unsafe where they live, including another incident TODAY, can you see why it would be upsetting for a Jewish person to see so many ppl casting aspersions, or just outright…
Ok, great, glad we agree on something. W/r to your question here (pic): no, that doesn’t get included as a recorded antisemitic attack because it is neither antisemitic or an attack. See cst.org.uk/data/file/6/... for further clarity. Now, a question for you…
It beggars belief that people deny this reality: my community is under sustained physical attack. This is from THIS MORNING. Does that mean other racism is less important? No, you fucking mook: it just means that we deserve empathy too. Courtesy this post: bsky.app/profile/m-en...
I’m not QTing this bc life is too short for the inevitable pile-on. But I utterly reject the 0-sum nature of this. It doesn’t have to be either/or guys: We don’t have to pit minorities against each other. None of us are free until all of us are free. I understand the frustration but this ain’t it
