Every time I check into a hotel, I think of this Tumblr banger that's etched into my mind

[Danny Boy @Care2much18]

Almost 10,000 likes for straight-up lies by Annunziata Rees-Mogg, quote:

"Asylum seekers make up 0.08% of Dorset's population and 44% of alleged sex offences. So unbelievable I had to check. It's true."

It's not true, it's utter garbage.

I'll go through facts and figures. /1

[Farrukh @implausibleblog]

Lady in blue, "Will student loans be the next misselling scandal?" #BBCQT

Oli Dugmore, "My three year course, £9,000 a year for the tuition, on top of that a maintenance loan, I left uni with £37,500 of debt"

"From the day I was charged RPI interest"

"Since I went to uni in 2012, the amount of interest I have accrued is £32,000"

"Was it missold to me when I was told it would cost me £9,000 a year? Yes"

"On top of that its a regressive system"

"If you're wealthy enough to pay the fees up front, you don't get charged interest - if you're rich enough you don't pay the same as me"

"The government changed the terms of the agreement, I call that loan sharking"

Fiona Bruce, "How else would you pay for university?"

Oli Dugmore, "How did you guys pay for it?"

"The state paid for it, didn't they?"

Fiona Bruce, "They did"

Oli Dugmore, "Good enough for you, good enough for me?"

Im proud to be English and even prouder to be British. But these flags right now are not showing patriotism- they are a show to intimidate our communities and cause division. If youre actually patriotic... Come and help make this country better. The organisations below... (cont)

Solidarity with all trans and intersex people having their existence debated every time a tv host hasn't done their prep and can't think of any more questions

[Scott Bryan @scottygb]

The same face of Gregg Wallace was shown three times in sixty seconds.

Here’s the full clip.

Nothing lives in my head rent free more than this moment

[Bob Vylan @BobbyVylan]

Silence is not an option.

[Thomas Willett @ThomasWillett9]

A woman who voted in favour of introducing Section 28, and against it being repealed in 2000, has NO right to question and lecture LGBTQ+ people about our community.
Stay out of our business, Emma. This does not concern you. We will ALWAYS support our trans siblings.

[Paddy Knowles @Pat_Knowles]

Also to look at that list of artists and pick The 1975, Olivia Rodrigo and (to a lesser extent) Neil Young as headliners is absolutely scandalous

Who the fuck was in charge of booking Sunday

@izzziemik Agree Poor Things was overrated and relied on shock value and Anora was a complete miss for me, think The Substance is different enough to avoid being grouped with them tho
