@Conservatives Cat check: To be eligible for British citizenship those immigrants will need to have lived in the UK for five years, meaning all of them came when the Conservatives were in government and these rules were in place.

The owners couldn't figure out why the cat wasn't sleeping in it's own bed.... until they saw this 🥺

@TeamTripleJump I'm so sorry to read this. Your podcast kept me company on my daily walks, especially during the height of the pandemic. I hope you all venture onto even better things.

An important announcement from the TripleJump team:

@ChrisGethard It's taken over two years to listen to every episode in order, but today, I am now all caught up on @BeautAnon. In that time, the show has helped me through love, with loss, and all the peaks and troughs of life. It has been a pleasure to listen. Thank you, Chris.

Was it for this that the US spent 80 years building power and alliances? Not to be a force for good. But instead to impoverish neighbours, threaten those it protected, rob minerals from war-torn countries, and break its promises to 100s of millions of the poorest in the world? 🧵

There is an aggressor: Russia. There is a victim: Ukraine. We were right to help Ukraine and sanction Russia three years ago—and to keep doing so. By “we,” I mean the Americans, the Europeans, the Canadians, the Japanese, and many others. Thank you to all who have helped and continue to do so. And respect to those who have been fighting since the beginning—because they are fighting for their dignity, their independence, their children, and the security of Europe.

No one seemed to object when Churchill turned up at the White House in his war-fighting gear.

London. A meaningful and warm meeting with Prime Minister @Keir_Starmer. During our talks, we discussed the challenges facing Ukraine and all of Europe, coordination with partners, concrete steps to strengthen Ukraine’s position, and ending the war with a just peace, along with robust security guarantees. A principled statement of support from the Prime Minister and an important decision: today, in our presence, Ukraine and the United Kingdom signed a Loan Agreement. This loan will enhance Ukraine’s defense capabilities and will be repaid using revenues from frozen Russian assets. The funds will be directed toward weapons production in Ukraine. This is true justice – the one who started the war must be the one to pay. I thank the people and government of the United Kingdom for their tremendous support from the very beginning of this war. We are happy to have such strategic partners and to share the same vision of what a secure future should look like for all. 🇺🇦🇬🇧

@agiantpaperclip May I ask if you're referring to 'Keeping Up Appearances'? If so, the actress who played 'Mrs Bucket' is Patricia Routledge.

@GailyHughes May I ask if you're referring to 'Keeping Up Appearances'? If so, Patricia Routledge was the main character's actress.

Slow clap, you misogynistic bunch of bellends 🙄

Word of the day is ‘recrudescence’ (17th century): the return of something terrible after a time of reprieve.

I am so deeply sorry. I thought better of us.

until the day I die I will never understand why he was even still allowed to run after this

Woman dressed as Handmaid votes in Asheville, North Carolina. How to bring your political message while wearing no political message. Genius!🔥

@XDarthThunderX Joy

What was your initial reaction to watching Rogue One for the first time? ✨

@thatbloke83 @NoContextBrits You're correct. Not South. But it's also not northern. We're East Anglian.

@NoContextBrits Norfolk is not "south". The clue is in the name! It starts with "Norf"

Can we all agree on this?

@CiaranDunsdon @NoContextBrits 👏👏👏

@NoContextBrits I live in East Anglia, and the clue is in the name. I definitely don’t live in the South of England 😤

@Caddicarus @ChoccaBoo Wishing you all the very best

Everyone please wish @ChoccaBoo good luck for her ‘final’ chemo session! Hopefully she won’t need anything additional pre/post-surgery, but as far as we know it’s her last day
