Sure, Churchill certainly did some stuff. But why isn’t anyone talking about the clear Sir Alec Douglas-Home erasure.

@MikeyRobins @tim_brannigan Molly Meldrum interviewed them for Countdown. Deborah Evans said the reason she performed it that way was very simple - 'Because I can't sing. But that doesn't matter, because the band can't play.'

@Bedeapk Mad Men should have been in Smell-o-vision, the smell being the stale cigarette smoke odour in every office.

The first earthquake detector was invented 2000 years ago in China. It consisted of eight dragon heads, each with a ball in its mouth. The dragon facing the earthquake’s epicentre would drop the ball when the ground shook. It could detect quakes 400 miles away. 📸: Kowloonese

This is all it takes to be nominated by Donald Trump as the next US ambassador to Malaysia. Seriously.

I am settling in for a showing of ‘Melania’ and the theater is PACKED! Earlier, a bystander asked if I was heading in to see Avatar, and I stopped dead in my tracks. “Avatar? No, son,” I curtly replied. “I don’t watch woke movies. I’m here to see the groundbreaking documentary about our incredibly talented First Lady.” The man’s two little girls began jumping up and down, pulling on his sleeve, and begging, “Daddy, we want to see Melania!” “But. But…” he stammered, “I thought you girls wanted to see Zootopia 2?” “No, no, NO,” they said, now nearly shouting. “We want to see Melania!! She is the most beautiful First Lady EVER.” Their father was scrambling, stressed out, and disoriented. “Girls, I’m afraid you aren’t the only ones who are captivated by President Trump and his beautiful wife,” I said, kneeling to get on their level. “Virtually everyone in this theater is here for the 7:30 PM showing, and it’s been sold out for days.” Tears began to well up in their eyes. “But…” I said in a hushed tone, “I happen to have a few extra tickets with me, and I’d like you and your dad to have them.” They jumped for joy and began hugging their father. He looked relieved as he wiped the sweat off his brow with a smile. I handed him the tickets and pulled him close. “Raise these girls right,” I whispered. “Teach them to be classy conservative women of faith like Melania, don’t let them become like Meghan Markle. Capisce?” He hugged me and thanked me profusely. “What are you going to do now?” He asked. “Don’t worry about me, son,” I told him, with a twinkle in my eye. “I’ve already got tickets to the next showing.”

"Only recently have the Irish been considered white". These people are brain-meltingly broken
Tigger Warning@TheDoobidoob

@Thatpotato33 One thing people forget is that whiteness is a fickle thing. It's only in recent history that the Irish were considered white. White Pride is based on bullshit race psuedoscience designed to subjugate people. I have no pride in bullshit.

"England", from the Old English term Englaland, meaning "land of the Angles," referring to one of the Germanic tribes (Angles, Saxons, Jutes) that settled in Great Britain after the Romans left.

I don’t want multiculturalism. I just want England. English people. English ancestry. English accents. English history. English countryside. English literature. English banter. English pubs. English manners. English intellect. English everything. England for the English.

The climax today of our series on JACK THE RIPPER, as we attempt to unmask the killer. Was the murderer a member of the royal family? Or a homicidal midwife? Or a Polish butcher? Or one of the men who claimed to have found the body? Or none of these? linktr.ee/restishistory
