Monkeys Fist

What’s happened to Trumps copycat version- Truth Social? I’m guessing that now he and Musk are blow-buddies it’s like Leaze’s message board where he chatted to himself and Wacky?

I lived in Killy Towers until 1976 when we moved in to one of the Garths. This place was 5 minutes on a Grifter from either address There were two iirc, this full length death wish, and the junior one for nippers next to it, which was about 15ft shorter, so both were actually lethal If you look top right, you can see the “steps” that were the way up the concrete to the top - best and most scary part of it, tbh. You’re right about the murals, they were on some big walls behind the photographer’s pov here, either end of what I think we’re meant to be all weather pitches- in reality they were big gravel patches that no fucker ever played football on, but made for great stunt jump areas for aforementioned Grifters. These two slides also both ended directly on to the same gravel… forgetting about that was a mistake you only made once

Cake for second breakfast! Happy Birthday Robin!

25-60. No exceptions. Gives time to get youthful deftness out of the system, and gets rid of them before they turn mental/conservative. I’d consider a mandatory break of a few years too, if they’re a career politician, so that they get experience of actual work

Is that the one with the main lass as an Asian woman copper? Im not a fan of copper shows at the best of times, but if it’s the same one, it was fucking atrocious Mrs. F. made me watch an episode - two blokes were accused of killing/kidnapping some Asian lass. Wasn’t them. Ray solved it through sheer determination and some terrible writing. At least I think that was what happened- it was hard to follow the story because of all the “ SHE’S AN ASIAN WOMAN COPPER!” bits that were shoehorned in every 30 seconds. 8.7 my hairy arse.

Is this a peculiarity of the Blyth dialect?

That’s Thomas Turgoose, poor lad’s just put some timber on.

Social media has a large part to play, but also don’t discount decades of Tory rule and culture. When I was on the rigs, is really hit home how much of a generational divide there was in selfishness and political outlook. My generation and the lads older than me were overwhelmingly left leaning, to varying degrees. The younger lads, 40 odd and below, were almost exclusively a pack of cunts Obsessed with money and property, very much “Fuck you, I’m alright Jack!” when discussing shared workspace ( e.g.plumbers working below us - they’ll be there for 4 shifts, we’d be there for 3, they’d kick off if they were stood down in favour of us ( unless they had an old school gaffer) constantly whining about immigration and taxes. The societal selfishness has been there a long time now, it’s ingrained in so many working class lads that it’s depressing, social media has just made it easier to see.

You missed their new flag off. Dumb down the masses, increase the military, push religion ( as long as it’s white and Christian), get the brown folks out. Textbook

That gives Trump far more credit than he’s due I think. Targeting the idiots isn’t particularly hard or revolutionary thinking. And he’s not exactly performing on any of his promises. I honestly see Trump as an aberration- if he’d never put himself in to politics, a huge amount of his MAGA cult would’ve just beetled away quietly being racists and hypocrites. Doesn’t make the shitstorm he’s leaving in his wake any easier to deal with, but he’s not going to go down in any political histories as a great planner and thinker. Covfefe

What’s the answer then? Easier said than done tbh- to counter the far-right you don’t need to swing far-left. So, centrism? That kind of describes Harris’ campaign to a tee.

He’d been up all night waiting for his kids to defrag his laptop.

Us old folk call them calendars

Eh???? Where’s Mary??? MAAARYYYYY!

On the same day Trump wins a second term, CT MAKES A FUCKING SPELLING JOKE! CORRECTLY!!!!!! It’s over lads- the End Times are here. ( edit- relax… he’s spelled serenity wrong ) (edit 2: and senility- cheers Meenz )

Reported!

“Oooh, I wonder what this butto…”

When Trump goes beyond the point of having a functional mental ability in about 6 months or so, who have they got with the strength, political sway, and principles to invoke the 25th amendment? * Even if they find someone able to do it, look at the fucking numpty that will take over. J. D. Fucking Vance… What an absolute fucking shitshow. The only tiny sparkle of we’re-not-utterly-fucked that I can see is that Russia clearly doesn’t have as strong a military as everyone thought, so even if Ukraine falls, (which I hope to hell it doesn’t, and shame on every western government if it does), he isn’t going to be able to invade any more of his former territories … is he? * I say this knowing that only the VP can technically invoke the 25th, but as I said, J. D. Fucking Vance…. someone other than him will need to do the thinking and implementation.

Fucking hell! Glad you’re ok man. Is that your car or the idiot’s?

After Brexit, I didn’t think I’d see another major western country bend itself over and fuck itself to oblivion again, but here we are. Stupid fucking cunts. Blame social media, mainstream media, whoever, but ultimately, blame the fucking backwards cunts that have voted the rapist back in to office. Un- fucking-believable. SLAVA UKRAINI ! You’re going to need it you poor bastards.
