When George Floyd died in 2020, Shabana Mahmood called for the UK to cut off all exports of security equipment to the U.S., to prevent police from using it to stop Floyd rioters torching cities.

Today, as UK Home Secretary, she is threatening a maximally harsh crackdown on those protesting Henry Nowak's death in Southampton.

But her probem isn't violence: She's the force behind news laws in the U.K. restricting "repeat protests," even if they're non-violent.

The left doesn't prefer peaceful protest to violent protest. They just think their protesters can be as violent as they want, and their opponents shouldn't get to protest at all.

We gamers just wanted one good launcher and to play games without the launcher/account wars you and other competitors brought into the hobby because you wanted the same success without putting in the work connecting with the gamer community.

Steam EARNED its spot by building and nurturing a client that actually catered to the PC community with features and social tools when everyone else ignored them.

As opposed to Epic and EGS which rely on Fortnite-funded bribes, timed exclusives, and service fragmentation to stay relevant.

Your cries of monopoly are pure projection and wounded pride after your catch-up strategies failed time and time again.

Golf Twitter used to feel like the clubhouse after a Saturday morning round. Guys posting flushed 7-irons, muni sunsets, terrible scorecards, gear talk, funny stories, and the occasional completely unhinged swing tip from a 12 handicap.

Now it’s the Burnerverse.

An entire ecosystem of anonymous accounts pretending to be rich tough guys with all the answers.

Every avatar is sunglasses in a truck. Every bio reads:
“Scratch. Markets. Violence. Cigars.”

And somehow every single one of them:

Hits it 340
Is a plus handicap
Makes seven figures
Trains MMA
Has insider sources
Knows how to fix pro golf
Thinks everyone else is soft
And would “absolutely say this to your face”

Sure, man.

Every conversation immediately turns into a blood feud about TV ratings, ball speed, legacy, or whether Tiger secretly controls world finance.

Meanwhile the actual soul of golf gets buried.

The walk.
The early tee time coffee.
The miracle 5-iron.
The random retiree you get paired with who tells stories for four hours.
The one flushed shot that keeps you coming back after shooting 92.

That’s the stuff that made golf Twitter fun in the first place.

The Burnerverse doesn’t actually love golf. It loves status. Golf is just the costume.

Because if you truly love this stupid game, you eventually realize golf humbles everyone. Eventually your swing leaves. Your putting disappears. You snap hook one into a pond in front of people you respect.

Golf strips everybody down eventually.

You are not edgy.
You are not cool.

You’re just another idiot trying to flush one before the sun goes down.

I'd do it with one hand on the switch and the other on a delicious, juicy burger. The kind you think if while trying to punch in a BK at a service station. The kind of burger that you remember for months.

I would probably forget about the execution except in moments of whimsy.

[Nick Almond @DrNickA]

This tweet is a fascinating insight into the dire state of the U.K.

Mostly it’s people who find it morally abhorrent for people to be on minimum wage serving coffee.

If you can’t use the minimum wage for entry level unskilled work. What can you use it for?

Many seem to think Peter should divert his savings to subsidise higher wages effectively operating at a loss. An economically irrational thing to do. Why would you pay (and work) to lose money?

Many seem to think he should shut the coffee shop down completely, removing those jobs from the market all together. Presumably no jobs is a better outcome than minimum wage jobs.

The minimum wage is now roughly £26k a year. About what I started on as a mathematics lecturer in 2010 after I completed by PhD. I worked 60-80 hours a week.

Your take home pay on the national average wage is only £170 a week more than someone on a minimum wage job. Which in order to get you’d need to have a profession and about a decades worth of experience in that profession.

That’s like one family meal and maybe a trip to the cinema. Hardly worth a decades hard work is it? And if you’re trying to save for a property, you won’t be able to have that.

It also means that the median UK worker is a family meal and some mild entertainment away from morally objectionable abject poverty.

What a mess

[US Oil & Gas Association @US_OGA]

We see where the Regime has trolled the SecDef. Admirable. But let's show them how it's done....

"If you have to export 1.5 million barrels oil in 5-gallon buckets instead of tankers, because a US Naval blockade has choked off your export capacity, that's 12.6 million Home Depot buckets per day.

To assist you in your efforts, here is the link to Home Depot where you can find those buckets for $3.98. There are 17,644 currently available.

P.S. For the mullahs: 1 barrel = 42 gallons."

Revealing exchange in Scotland

Reform leader:

I was born in a tenement at 33 Bank Street in Greenock. Back then, Scottish education was the best in the UK and I got it all for free at Greenock Academy and Edinburgh University.

I went to London 40 years ago with £2,000 in debt. I was full of ambition, I worked hard and I was successful. Today, I own six houses, five cars and six boats.

In a 40-year business career, I've employed thousands of people and paid £45 million in tax. I don't say this to boast - but to ask you this question. Mr Greer, in your Scotland, do you want more people like me, or fewer people like me?

Green leader:

Fewer people like you. I'm glad you finally admitted how many homes you have, Lord Offord.

It’s called “Assumed risk” and it should be the baseline judgement for anyone who engages in criminal behavior and gets injured or killed for it.

You tried to bash a mailbox with a bat but it was filled with concrete and you broke both your arms?

Congrats, you fucking idiot.

It’s all your fault.

You break into someone’s house and get shot in the face?

Congrats. You earned it.

Make sure your mom and dad and siblings and cousins get a letter from the district attorney telling them that it’s your fault your birthday subscription was canceled.

Two dudes agree to fight and one get his head bounced out gf the curb and drools for the rest of his wheelchair ridden days?

Congrats.

You can now enter Stephen Hawkin lookalike contests and it’s your fault.

This blew up and attracted the horde of USA commies.

For my final trick, I will make their brains explode from irony.

What country do USA commies point to as the example of successful communism?

China

How much wealth do the top 10% have in China?

68% (same as USA)

What does China score on the Gini metric for income inequality?

0.46 (same as USA)

Surely there are no billionaires in communism…. Right?

Wrong, China has 516 billionaires.

See the truth about real communism is that it’s a terrible way to run an economy.

China figured that out after tens of millions of their citizens starved to death.

So now the “best example of communism” is actually a capitalist economy with a fascist authoritarian political structure.

@Hard_Egg_33 @Devon_Eriksen_ @hasen_95dx I put it to you that if only 1% of mailboxes are concrete this wouldn't happen either. All it takes its a greater than zero chance of seeing your homie having to get help to piss to make you think twice about it.

[Devon Eriksen @Devon_Eriksen_]

The Mailbox Test, like the breakfast test, is an excellent way to tell who you can allow to wield power in your society.

Goes like this:

If someone is hurt trying to destroy someone else's stuff in order to take pleasure from their pain, do you sympathize with...

The aggressor because he got hurt?

Or with the guy who owns the stuff, because he wasn't the aggressor?

You can have people in your society who fail the Mailbox Test. That's okay... they can work at hospices, or shelters for orphaned kittens, or something.

But you cannot allow them to vote, or otherwise wield political power. Because if you do, they will open the gates of the city to the enemy.

I am personally tired of everyone pretending that people who enjoy ruining things for random strangers are just kewt smol beans who are only aggressive because of all the complex socioeconomic factors and lack of resources.

They knew someone would be hurt by what they did. They knew that someone had done literally nothing harmful to them. And those two ideas, in combination made them feel pleasure. And they went and did it.

That is the sign of a rotten soul.

Defending ourselves and our property is not just a right, it's a moral obligation. Otherwise, we just kick the can down the road for someone else to deal with, someone who may not be able to defend herself.

I don't care if a vandal breaks his arms trying to destroy my stuff. Because I value my stuff more than a vandal's arms. And the fact that he tried to destroy somebody else's stuff shows that he, too, values his arms less than the opportunity to hurt somebody.

We cannot allow such people inside the city, and we cannot give the keys to those who would open the gates for them.

Motorist Spared Jail After “Completely Avoidable” Crash Sends Military Vehicle Airborne on A43
A motorist has been handed a suspended prison sentence and banned from driving after a dangerous manoeuvre caused a military vehicle to flip violently on a busy dual carriageway, leaving two men seriously injured.
Crenguta Aruxandei, 44, of Northampton, appeared at Northampton Crown Court where she was sentenced to six months in prison, suspended for 18 months, after admitting two counts of causing serious injury by careless driving. She was also disqualified from driving for 12 months and must pass an extended driving test before being allowed back on the road.
The incident took place at around 8:35am on January 10, 2026, on the A43 near Hulcote. Dashcam footage later released by Northamptonshire Police captured the moment Aruxandei, driving an Audi Q2, slowed down and abruptly moved from the outside lane into the inside lane while attempting to take an exit.
This sudden manoeuvre forced the driver of a military Land Rover Defender, which was travelling in convoy and towing a trailer, to take evasive action. As a result, the vehicle lost control, overturned, and began rolling across both lanes of the carriageway.
The footage shows the Land Rover flipping multiple times before coming to rest, while another military vehicle behind it narrowly avoided being involved by managing to stop in time.
Emergency services were quickly called to the scene. The 36-year-old driver of the Land Rover was thrown from the vehicle during the crash and suffered a suspected fractured back. He was taken to University Hospital Coventry for treatment. His 31-year-old passenger sustained a significant head injury and was transported to Northampton General Hospital.
Police described the collision as “completely avoidable,” highlighting that Aruxandei’s actions directly led to the incident. She had initially indicated she would contest the charges but later changed her plea to guilty before the trial began.
In addition to the suspended sentence and driving ban, Aruxandei was ordered to pay a £154 victim surcharge.
Detective Constable Eleanor Hudson from the Serious Collision Investigation Unit emphasised the seriousness of the case, stating that driving is both a privilege and a responsibility. She noted that behaviour like this has no place on public roads, particularly when it results in life-changing injuries to other road users.
The case underlines the severe consequences that can arise from a moment of poor judgment behind the wheel, especially on high-speed routes where other drivers have little time to react.
Authorities continue to stress the importance of road safety, with ongoing efforts aimed at reducing the number of serious injuries and fatalities caused by careless and dangerous driving.

"Hello Emily, what's this"?

"Well Miss Phillipson, despite me only being six years old my teacher set me some rather challenging homework last night and this is what I've come up with".

"Oh, this sounds interesting Emily. Tell me more".

"I'm not sure I want to. Every time we talk about my homework you storm off and tell me to piss off because you're not interested".

"I promise not to do that this time Emily".

"OK. Well my teacher asked me to write about the conflicting treatment given to people who want to visit our country".

"In what respect Emily"?

"Well, some people are told they're not allowed to come here because they've said nasty things but others are allowed to come here despite the fact they've actually DONE horrible things. It's inconsistent don't you think Miss Phillipson"?

"Well, not really because.....".

"Well I think it is. Mr Starmer has stopped that lovely lady with the long name from the Netherlands coming here simply because she says we allow to many horrible men to come here on boats and they do horrible things".

"There's a bit more to it than that Emily. In fact.....".

"And she's right. My Daddy says I might not be safe if some of those men live near me. And that's not a nice feeling".

"Well we're trying hard to....".

"And there's Mr Y, or Yeezy, or Weezy or whatever he's called. He's that man who's married to the lady who goes to restaurants and shows off her bosoms and her bottom. He was banned from coming here too. Why was that Miss Phillipson"?

"Well Emily, he said he admires Hitler. We can't have people here who say they admire Hitler".

"But that's only something he said. He hasn't hurt anybody or anything. I know his last album was a bit crap but we all have off days".

"Well we believe people who say bad things shouldn't be allowed here Emily".

"What about people who actually DO bad things Miss Phillipson"?

"The same applies".

"What about people who chop other people's heads off"?

"We'll leave it there Emily".

"No we won't. Why did that man from Syria who cut off people's heads come here? Was he invited"?

"As I said Emily, we'll leave it there. I have to go now. Jeremy, where's my car"?

"Miss Phillipson, why was the man from Syria invited here"?

"Shut up Emily. Where's the bloody car"?

"He was given a cream tea in No.10. Why was that"?

"Car. Now. Piss off Emily".

"He even met the King and had some sandwiches with him".

"I said PISS OFF Emily, I'm not interested".

"See, I said you'd get annoyed".

(Miss Phillipsons car arrives).

"Get me out of here. That evil little shit got me again. Bloody hell, can we find a different school next time? Where's that bottle of gin? A large one. Now".
