Word of the Hour: Bluster - To blow fitfully with violence and noise as wind; to be windy and boisterous as the weather. #WordOfTheHour #WordOfTheDay

genuinely fascinated by the anachronistic choices in road to empress yet also what they decide to keep relatively historically accurate. i need to know so bad why the writers room stuck very hard to certain areas then just rule of cool'd the rest of it

John Betjeman's 1937 poem Slough seems apposite

And get that man with double chin
Who'll always cheat and always win,
Who washes his repulsive skin
In women's tears,

And smash his desk of polished oak
And smash his hands so used to stroke
And stop his boring dirty joke
And make him yell.

A new survey claims 57% of Americans are fine with trillionaires, provided the wealth comes from "value creation." It seems we have learned to drape the raw, bony frame of old-fashioned avarice in very fine modern velvet.

Just listening to Dido Harding opine on party leaders on BBC's Any Questions.

Pity no one asked her about the circa £30bn (yes billion - that's not a typo) that's she spaffed up the wall during Covid (on test and trace). Bloody disgrace !

If I sound pissed off then it's because I really am !!

One day of US news:
- Executions are going to be live on broadcast
- ICE facilities are intentionally inhumane (we suspected that already)
- zero accountability within the US military anymore, since every digression needs to be reported along the chain of command, making higher ups […]
