Some of the plastic we find on beaches is decades old. The 1st figure here was given away with #SugarPuffs in 1957, the wagon driver is thought to date to the late 50s, the #RobinHood figure is 50-60 years old and the Tallon jet car is from 1962. #anthropocene #plasticarchaeology

Enjoy your video "games" while you still can, there will be no new generation to take care of you when you are old.

@Cadmarch Sure, most people are sane & Sunak's race/religion produces overwhelmingly positive reactions in the main(stream) here which is great.

That there's more of a negative reaction to Sunak in the US than here is something TN might have used instead without changing his message.

@CheeseTastingCo @PeteBrownBeer He knows too much, Pete.

Do what you have to.

[Perdesthai @Perdesthai]

@Cadmarch He wants to make his right-on audience chuckle at how silly they all think great replacement scares are, and he wants to do his Obama voice.

He's not going to make the septics any more self-centered and he won't ruin our image abroad.

[Perdesthai @Perdesthai]

@Cadmarch There's not _zero_ anti Sunak stuff here that focuses on his religion rather than his politics and obviously a satirist is going to find his material more easily at the extremes of opinion.

I just don't think the point of his bit is to tell us we are bad.

[Perdesthai @Perdesthai]

@Cadmarch For Americans, so that he can do his Obama joke.

Yeah he's exaggerating some UK stuff about Sunak but he's not talking to us (hence the baffled / hostile reaction from many here), he's just using something his audience is somewhat aware of to hang his joke on.

[Perdesthai @Perdesthai]

@tophe_probert @SpaJw @holland_tom Right, it's not like his main thrust is "the UK is being racist about Sunak", that's just a small part of the hook he hangs the piece on.

It's a comedy bit, not a serious analysis of UK culture and politics.
It's mostly about the US and entirely for them.

[Perdesthai @Perdesthai]

@Cadmarch In order to reinvent them so that you can repeat the experience of discovering them for the first time?

Well, okay.

[Perdesthai @Perdesthai]

@joshglancy Sure, he's misinformed or exaggerating the response in the UK, but he's addressing an American audience and shoehorning a fringe bit of UK politics to make a general point feel a bit more up to the minute doesn't invalidate that point which is an interesting one.

[Perdesthai @Perdesthai]

@USSSeabags Sure but he's not in front of a UK audience either.

His main point is strong IMO

@MrRBourne Why bring her into this?

[Perdesthai @Perdesthai]

@PaulMainwood I think that through persistence it's becoming art - he's writing it not understanding why it would be published or read, they publish with no idea why it would be written or read, we're reading it clueless as to why it was written or published & yet here we all are once again.

Want to smoke? There’s a special pen for you near the toilets (but you can’t take your beer in there).

@northumbriana Ah, there's a bench sculpture of her in Berwick.
