- Reposted by Joe LynchWes Streeting saying on Today that Mandelson is ‘not the man we thought he was’ but the trouble is, he is exactly the man we thought, just on a much worse scale than almost anyone thought. And there is an alternative world where none of this is this govt’s problem, because they never gave him a job
- Reposted by Joe LynchO cool The hypothesis that the elite were trying to segrigate trans people from society purely to keep us as sex slaves was real, but only for trans women since they see trans men as undesirable for sex and want them eliminated which is EXACTLY THE POLICIES AND RHETORIC WE'RE SEEING HAPPEN RIGHT NOW
- My lunch today is going to be leftover home made chicken curry, and leftover home made yorkshire puddings. One of the few perks of adulthood is that there is nothing that you nor the government can do to stop me.

- This shit right here is why even if the Democrats win the presidency and the house and the senate over the next 3 years we should continue building a global economic system which doesn't have the US at its centre. Nuremberg style trials of the current regime and a generation of sanity first.

- Reposted by Joe LynchIf the British government, and indeed other governments, can’t muster a fast and strong response to Twitter adding a facility enabling users to create and share AI child sexual abuse material then not sure what Musk could ever do that would actually provoke a response.
- I am crying with laughter so much that those weird muscles across the back of my skull hurt. I'm serious, I'm in physical distress from laughter here. Stop what you are doing and read this thread. There is absolutely no way that you will predict where it is going.
