Blimey, BBC Four, what have we done to deserve this? Next Wednesday 30 July, the late evening schedule is devoted to THREADS and THE WAR GAME, two of the most horrifying and bleakly depressing films ever made. There will be documentaries, too. Get the snacks in!
I come from a family of doctors & cancer researchers. My district is full of medical professionals. RFK, Jr. is an anti-vax conspiracist. While we hear from him today, here’s the facts on what he did to kids in Samoa & why the Senate must reject him:

This gives me no pleasure, but given Elon Musk's history, claims, and behaviors, I can't let Richard's "welfare of the world at heart" line pass without comment.
While watching Elon's rise to greater power (and the fawning of his fans), I started keeping notes. Thread (1)
This is a truly heartbreaking one. Janey’s fierce support for those bullied, her vulnerability and sense of justice was what I admired about her the most.
It now falls to all of us to call Trump a cunt at any given opportunity, on her behalf.
Sleep tight you funny fucker :(
@KyleXekyl@Carpervert His running mate literally wrote the forward to the book, plus Trump is in bed with the Heritage Foundation. He was found guilty of sexual assault by a jury of his peers, and yes, of course Jan 6th was an insurrection, only smooth brained cultists think otherwise.
@KyleXekyl@Carpervert Except there's no false equivalence here; you're supporting a convicted rapist and insurrectionist, a man backed by the foul Peter Thiel and charged with implementing Project 2025. I'm merely supporting democracy, imperfect as it is in its US guise.
@KyleXekyl@Carpervert Yea, and now he’s had time to stew and ensure any cabinet he forms will be utterly loyal to him and his monstrous MAGA agenda.
This isn’t the Trump of 2017; he’s untethered, free from guardrails and out for revenge. But then what would an apologist for rape care, ey chum?
@KyleXekyl@Carpervert I mean Trump’s own chief of staff said he ticks all the boxes, plus y’know the whole trying to stage a coup when he lost last time…so yea, he’s a fascist cunt of the worst sort. And a convicted rapist.
