the brexit papers and the papers supporting liz truss
Never forget, that when this rancid government and the error that was Brexit is discussed, a lot of blame has to go to the right wing press that sprouted lies such as these on a daily basis. Twats.
Never vote Tory - or buy any of the right wing rags.
And while we're at it, the bastard Daily Mail supported Liz Truss during the leadership campaign and printed crap like this to assist her in her path to glory.
I repeat...Never vote Tory, or buy any of the right wing rags

the lettuce has won!! liz truss resigns
After the countless weeks off sprouting crap to appeal to the hardcore Tory members and the Tufton Street twats during the leadership contest, at no great surprise to anyone with half a brain, it has all been a fucking disaster that the poor are currently paying for.
What a great day to be off work and watching TV. Time for an election!!! (which l very much doubt will happen any time soon)

sick boy john major
You know when you are getting old people say policemen look younger? How about Sick boy from Trainspotting (Johnny Lee Miller) being old enough to play ex Prime Minister John Major?
Shoot me now.

the parrot is an artist
While l was sitting reading on the settee, l wasn't paying that much attention to Mr Parrot, who was sitting on my chest, fiddling with the buttons on the neck of my t-shirt while l stroked him absentmindedly. It was only after he had got up and buggered off back to his stand, that l noticed he had chewed one of the buttons off, pooed on the back of the settee (which he doesn't normally do), and put the button on top of it, making some kind of statement. A statement pertaining to what l have no idea, but the little bugger's trying to tell me something.

beer or rain
It doesn't take a lot to persuade me to get out of the rain and head to the pub, so this sign hits the nail on the head. Simple yet effective.

Passport photographs of The Sex Pistols taken for their 1978 USA tour. Reader...it didn't end well.

my ideal house
I think l've found my ideal house. At least it would prevent me from having to keep the blinds shut all the time so l can get some privacy (unsociable git that l am). Think l'd have to buy the house next door to the one in the photo as well, to avoid having to make any conversation or hearing them.

it's about time they admitted it
From The Telegraph newspaper, a long standing supporter of the Tories.
suella braverman for prime minister
FFS!!! I'd like to think she is joking, but knowing this inept crop of glorious leaders, l very much doubt it.
It was bad enough with Boris, and even worse now with Liz, but this would be a scary joke too far.

bob hope's house
I may have put this up in the past, but if so, it's worth repeating. Bob Hope's marvellous looking house in Palm Springs. I must admit, l never expected him to live in anything as magnificent as this, but l certainly like it.

medical dispensation the therese coffey way
Going against all right thinking medical professionals advice, Therese Coffey, our great and glorious Health Secretary, is not afraid to follow her own calling. It's just a shame that she is such an imbecil, and this policy could harm people. Then again, coming from her, it's only to be expected.
Never vote Tory.

Pink Floyd - If (From Atom Heart Mother)
I love this song, and to me, it contains some of their finest lyrics, more than likely with Syd Barrett in mind.
If I were a swan, I'd be gone.
If I were a train, I'd be late.
And if I were a good man, I'd talk with you more often than I do.
If I were to sleep, I could dream.
If I were afraid, I could hide.
If I go insane, please don't put your wires in my brain.
If I were the moon, I'd be cool.
If I were a rule, I would bend.
If I were a good man, I'd understand the spaces between friends.
If I were alone, I would cry.
And if I were with you, I'd be home and dry.
And if I go insane, will you still let me join in with the game?
If I were a swan, I'd be gone.
If I were a train, I'd be late again.
If I were a good man, I'd talk to you more often than I do.

lesha porche's curved lines
Lesha Porche's 'Curved Lines' illusion makes your brain imagine there are curved lines, but when you try to focus on them, they can't be found. Pretty damn cool.
ye cracke and tories
Ye Cracke (a pub in Liverpool) certainly doesn't like Tories. If l lived closer, it would be my regular.

Elliott Smith - Between The Bars
Drink up baby, stay up all night
With the things you could do
You won't but you might
The potential you'll be that you'll never see
The promises you'll only make
Drink up with me now
And forget all about the pressure of days
Do what I say and I'll make you okay
And drive them away
The images stuck in your head
People you've been before
That you don't want around anymore
That push and shove and won't bend to your will
I'll keep them still
Drink up baby, look at the stars
I'll kiss you again, between the bars
Where I'm seeing you there with your hands in the air
Waiting to finally be caught
Drink up one more time, and I'll make you mine
Keep you apart, deep in my heart
Separate from the rest, where I like you the best
And keep the things you forgot
People you've been before
That you don't want around anymore
That push and shove and won't bend to your will
I'll keep them still
hmmm... could be a song in this
Paul McCartney reading Ian Fleming's 'Live and Let Die' book in 1965. We all know what happened a few years later.

happy faces 'so you play in a band'
Danny, a sort of relative of mine put this up on Facebook the other day and it made me laugh out loud, as l think the faces featured, along with the sentiment, are excellent.
Who says the youngsters nowadays have no sense of humour? Not me, that's for sure.

the not so great nhs privatisation drive
The Conservative government been planning the privatisation of the NHS for a while, but once again, l'm just putting this information out there. It's only a matter of time if they somehow manage to stay in power.
sauces mix up
OK. As a great fan of both of these sauces (normally), this is doing my head in. It just feels wrong! There's enough things messed up in the world at the moment without having to deal with this. Sort it out FFS.

rod stewart's train set
I've put photographs of Rod Stewart's train set before, but l saw these ones the other day so thought l'd repost. as l'm still amazed by it. The money, time and effort put into making something like this just blows my mind (maaaan). Very, very impressive.
