It would be nice if it really was his daughter, eh? :wink:

No.
Heard of @cynicaloldgit show though.
Thinks he’s witty.

As is often the case, Monbiot hits the nail squarely on the head.

Aside from the fact that people are fuckwits, and cunts

Pretty much the day after the attacks there was reports that a Muslim Man had been arrested for trying to attack the vigil with a machete.

It turned out to be a white lad with a flick knife, but you know that’s just details.

It is terrifying how quickly misinformation can spread, often with intention behind it.

I admired many of the achievements of Musk (knowing his flaws).

However, his recent interview where he talked about his son being dead (he had a sex change). That he got infected by woke virus. That’s the motivation why he bought twitter. It made me realise he is just a man full of bigotry and hatred and is fundamentally broken. On a flawed crusade because he can’t accept reality.

I once had a boss like that and they are successful because they are Sociopaths. Take all the credit, blame everyone else. They justify events to align with their own reality, lack empathy, manipulative and are reckless.

Father Ted stuff. I just can’t help laugh and shake my head. Surrealistic. Just so incredibly absurd. Tragicomic.

Yes, 1991 in my Army days.
Different place back then.

Shame I don’t feel safe here at the moment. Problem for me is, this is home. Where do I go to feel safe if home isn’t safe?

I mean, stay inside until the police hoover up the imbeciles is probably your best bet. Where abouts are you?

Musk is basically a Bond Villain in a world without James Bond to stop him.

South coast, not far from the A3.

For clarity, nothing has happened around where I live (or to me), but as someone that’s 41 and grown up here, you can feel when the general feelings/vibes are changing - less “good mornings”, more hacky looks from the chavvy all day drinker types.
