Topic | David Cameron named UK Foreign Secretary |
ai123 11/13/23 6:49:11 AM #11 | Cameron is the cowardly fucker who gave us Brexit because he was scared he would lose a few MPs to Nigel Farage.
Sunak doesn't have a lot of options when it comes to filling cabinet posts. A lot of Tory MPs are low calibre seat fillers who got elected under Boris Johnson and plan to leave at the next election (most will be voted out anyway). Of the rest, some hate his guts for stabbing Johnson in the back, some occupy the same repulsive positions as Braverman, and some are biding their time and don't want to be associated with his dying government. The list of alternatives would not have been an impressive one. Cameron is a lot more socially liberal than most Tories, if that means anything, which it won't. --- Nothing works/Everything's expensive/And opaque/And privatised/My shoe organising thing arrived/Thank God |

I know the guy on the right is an actor, but I couldnt tell you any of his movies despite being a huge movie buff. This is because Im an elitist piece of shit who doesnt watch Hollywood slop but sticks to foreign films and indie films, unless its horror or Marvel. No idea who the guy on the left is. All of this is also irrelevant since I am not a US citizen and thus cannot vote which means I am not the target audience for their strategy.

I know multi-verses seem to be a concept that's being used a lot in superhero media as of late. But between here and the Invincible subreddit, it's pretty weird/funny seeing people foam at the mouth this hard at this season leaning into the multi-verses.I don't dislike multiverse stories because they are unrealistic. I dislike them because they are too often messy, confusing, and a go to for writers who are out of ideas. However, I've been told that Invincible doesn't fall onto those traps, so I'll watch with an open mind. --- Nothing works/Everything's expensive/And opaque/And privatised/My shoe organising thing arrived/Thank God |
