Since nothing makes sense in the US, can’t Joe just fire Donald into space strapped to a NASA rocket? Asking for a friend.

Nothing says bombastic fail like appointing a convicted felon (again) as your new leader. A man who struggles to finish either a meaningful sentence or a flight of stairs. #Americant

BBC News, "4.3 million 18-24 year olds have not registered to voted.. That's enough to change the result of the election"
If you haven't registered yet, please register to vote - help shape the future of our nation

97%+ of over 65s are registered to vote. Only 2/3s of 18-24 year olds are on the register. If you turn 18 on or before 4th July you can register to vote right now.
Do not lose your democratic birthright! It matters so much.
It only takes 5 minutes.

URGENT! Pls share. The last chance to register to vote in the General Election is 11.59pm tomorrow Tue 18 June. Potentially 8m aren't registered at their current address. Here's 4 key facts...
1) You can do it online here registertovote.service.gov.u…
2) It's good for your finances. Not being on electoral roll can make it more difficult to be accepted for credit products like bank accounts or mortgages.
3) You can opt out of the 'Open Register' (which allows your info to be sold on) which will stop you getting junk mail marketing )
4) You'll need ID when you do vote (not to register) if you don't have it, you can get it free until Wed 26 June gov.uk/apply-for-photo-id-vo…
The milky Farrago man is certainly creamy white, stands up for things on the right and it’s definitely on him. No picture required.

The timing of the election might cause problems for some, esp students coming to the end of term or those who have holidays booked (whoever they intend to vote for). The solution is to apply for a postal vote. Here’s the link to do so. Please share.

Ruinak confirms a #GE in the second half of 2024, while seeking to clamp down on the wokery of ‘half’ and the notion of 2024 being a fixed number of days. Or ruling out summer.

Steve Albini’s influence on anybody who cared for music over the last 30 years runs deep. His undiluted passion, care and precision infiltrated so many records. What a remarkable legacy he’s left behind - mass, velocity and time in a singular vision.

The current stylistic flim flam offered by @pitchfork best of guides is bugging me today. Is it too much to have sentences rather than gestural phrases now?

Please keep sharing & signing.
@NHSPracHealth costs a mere 0.007% of NHSE’s budget.
Are we really worth so very little?
💥 NHS STAFF 💥

So Truss has “thrown her weight” behind Trump. What’s the collective noun for a gaggle of numpties @susie_dent ?
Looking fwd to a battle royale…

There’s a curious parity between the shiny, glazed expression on Rishi’s face when regurgitating a soundbite and the coating of a @GreggsOfficial doughnut, yet the latter vessel has significantly greater real world experience, intellectual rigour and moral certitude.
