The Hungarian election is today, and fingers crossed Viktor Orban gets the boot. Here's Budapest last night. A very fine place, with some very fine people, and with an excellent British themed rock nightclub l had lots of fun in. Mind you, the company and the drugs may have helped, but either way, they deserve better.

Oh ho. Despite the fact that l think Israel have overstepped the mark for many years, escalation is the last thing we want.

This is how many years it would take for a commercial aircraft to reach other planets. Space s big. Very big.
I think the universe is trying to tell me something, but l don't know what it is.

Galton and Simpson, knocking out top quality scripts for Tony Hancock week after week, until he foolishly ditched them. Hancock then went downhill, while they went on to write Steptoe and Son.

The second Melania film has just dropped, this time with a more realistic marketing campaign.

Christ on a bike. This woman makes me look like Cliff Richards when l'm trying to emulate the great God Keith. Looks like l'll have to up my game.

A great idea for a poster, but l read it as l was about to put the kettle on before going for a piss, after just having woke up from a short nap. Luckily l'm not losing weight so everything is still hunky dory, and l'm still indestructible.

In need a feel good story amongst all the ongoing and unrelenting madness? This Ukrainian cat and dog were rescued from the front line in Ukraine and bought back to safety by drone. And don't they look relieved. Look for the joy and goodness amongst the crap. It's what gives you hope.

If it wasn't for the spiders and flies, l'd be up for this.

I couldn't agree more, but this is assuming The Democrats get the numbers, and there are elections in the first place (and Trump hasn't started WW3).

Some excellent reporting and inside knowledge from The New York Times. Obviously anyone in their right mind knew Trump (in this case) was being led by Benjamin Netanyahu rather than Putin, but JD Vance as the voice of reason? That's how fucked up things are at the moment. Full story is here.

NASA are doing all the heavy lifting at the moment to make us feel better about humanity and what can be achieved in the right hands. Another excellent photograph, and the first ship to ship communication in space. Well played.

If Trump ends hostilities and agrees to even half of these demands (which l hope he does), it would have been a catastrophic decision to go to war. Unfortunately, l don't think Netanyahu will agree and he will be trying to influence Trump to reject the deal, as he's been wanting to attach Iran (and Lebanon) for decades. Let's not forget America and Iran already had a peace deal which was much more favorable under Obama, which Trump refused to continue. Remove the kiddie rapist ASAP.

The world's still here (for now) and Glastonbury Tor was looking pretty good this morning.

This is very good indeed, but unfortunately l don't know who did it.

An impartial Attorney General? Forget it America. These sycophantic idiots are a huge part of the problem in America, and why Trump is still in power. How they can look themselves in the mirror every morning or justify this to their children is beyond me.
Let's face it, JD Vance has sold his soul, and like Trump, is assisting Russia. What a time to be alive. I blame God.
Here's a photograph of George Orwell with his nanny in India. There's an interesting article by Raoul Peck about how George Orwell's relationship with his nanny when he was a child affected his outlook on life and how modern manipulation of the news and doublespeak is taking place and shaping our view of events in the present, which l highly recommend. My friends say l'm the least racist person they know (what an accolade!) but as a child l lived in Kenya and Singapore (as well as other places) so grew up among different races and cultures. Plus l'm from Liverpool and it's in our blood. From The Byline Times - here.

Just because the threatened war crimes and the destruction of a country has been put off for two weeks (but who knows with Trump) does not alter the fact he should be removed before we all suffer (even more). All Democrats and any sensible Republican left should be behind this.
