I realise Moley having a byline makes it look like he was involved in the opening message. I promise, it was all me! I just couldn't NOT credit him for that image

At this moment, I would like to distance myself from.... whatever it is that is happening here.

I think....

Possibly...

Thank you Graham, for the shout! It is appreciated!

Das Boot did it for me!

Ha! That is probably one of the silliest, most absurd 'gags' I have ever done - and I have no idea what it means - it just followed on nicely from Dis/Dat I suppose - The first thing that popped into my head I guess - and I thought, why not? It is no more ludicrous than some of the 'genuine' ones above!

It’s great. Reminded me of a gag in the Simpsons ‘this is the boot from Das Boot’

Regarding the Penny Mordaunt controversy, I think there is a "Good News" story tucked away in here. Gender self-ID was such a low-key, hidden-away issue that many of us did not even notice it during the May Government. But now that self-same policy is killing the chances of a Conservative leadership candidate who was, until a day or two ago, the party members' favourite. That's a huge change - and a welcome one.

Not yet killed her chances. She still has a chance of getting into the final two.

But you are right, its really shining a light on the absurdity and insanity of "self id".

I hope so too. Sunak/Badenoch would be ok, but I guess if not Mordaunt it'll be Sunak/Truss. Good grief what a bunch of no hopers.

If Badenoch became leader it would be the best result for our parliamentary democracy - Labour would squirm and need to come up with some actual policies. Meanwhile, the SNP would be shown up for the whining illogical windbags that they are, when they inevitably start accusing a black women of oppressing us downtrodden Scots

Trouble is, Badenoch isn’t kind to anyone - watch her rip into refugees & those on benefits if she becomes PM.

Expand full comment

Agreed. I don't support Badenoch on almost everything. With her, though, the opposition parties might be compelled to work harder which might be better for parliament. Could be wrong though....what a lot of mediocrity

I certainly hope so , I may be in the minority but we’re full

And you don’t need to be kind to be fair , look after our own

Thanks for highlighting Christina Ellingsen's case and the situation in Norway again, Graham. Would be nice if we could get Christina on The Mess!

Thank you, William, for remembering her. Tucker Carlson had a good interview with Christina; now he needs to interview the Brazilian woman if she speaks English.

Yes. Would like to see both of them on The Mess, ideally.

Baroness Emma Nicholson and Christina Ellingsen are absolute heroes. The number of voices across the world calling out gender woo for the trickery wokery it is grows daily. Now we have to ensure our elected representatives understand we simply won’t accept the fiction the trans lobby is pushing. Send emails, post stickers, protest. Never give up. 💚🤍💜

PS, kudos to Moley!

That's brilliant! This week I will be identifying as Chim/Chim/Cheroo.

I'd be fascinated to know the thought process in the Starmer camp. Are they surprised to find that voters like Kemi Badenoch because she has a problem with boys in girl's toilets? Are they wondering what sorcery attracts voters to people who believe in the same thing everyone who's not a nutter or a pervert believes?

You might believe that Brinton’s capacity to work at DOE has nothing to do with his kink activism, but he doesn’t share your belief. He believes that it is good and right to gain access to senior levels of government, and use that access for advocacy. Anybody inside DOE who has to work with this guy is now on notice that he is going to be watching them for signs that they don’t affirm him in every way - and he will make trouble for them.

His supervisors and co-workers alike will be afraid of him as he screams “TRANSPHOBIA” whenever anyone around him expresses any discomfort - and he will be extremely difficult to fire.

They all know that Brinton is going to ruin them professionally if they step out of line.

It used to be that if you spoke in any way whatsoever of your sex life at work, it was considered sexual harassment of your fellow employees. I guess MRAs have found a way around that policy, unfortunately.

Not mine, no - But I did a version with a caption which read -

I recall back in the 70s when Roxy Music appeared on Top of the Pops and sang this:

"I say go

She say yes

Dim the lights

You can guess the rest"

And my mum said, "Goodness me! Is that what they're singing about nowadays?"

I wonder how she would have reacted to reading this:

"Brinton also explains how he has difficulty making his ‘dog’ stop pretending to be a dog before he has anal sex with it."

No need to "guess the rest" there!

I think the article tells you how! My husband just said, as I read him highlights of the article, that the people behind the Biden administration are succeeding in coming up with a regime crazier than that of Donald Trump.

Expand full comment

Maybe the difference is that it was mostly just Trump spouting rubbish and the people around him were simply trying to fight the fires he was creating whereas this administration, the president and those around him are all working together to create the fires under the trojan horse of "inclusivity" and "Be kind".

Expand full comment

But some of what Trump spouted was not rubbish, and many of the people around him were horrendous. Pompeo, the wacko Christian who wants to hurry up armageddon; Devos destroying schools; etc. Trump was not interested in starting wars unlike the War Party, he rescinded Obama's replacement of sex with gender identity, and other sanities. When Trump starts to look half-sane, you know you have no hope for your country.

As long as he doesn't have any issues regarding finances, violent crime or outstanding mental issues (insert your own joke here) OMB will pretty much issue you a clearance as long as you're completely honest.

Not like the State Dept which looks at stability, discretion, character, and judgment among other qualities.

Probably said everything he says here. What qualifies him to hold the position he's been given? Does it even matter? He's there to represent some kind of ethos, and it's likely to be worthless and unaccommodating to whoever is supposed to benefit from what he'll be doing. God knows what is going on in the minds of those who thought this appointment was a good idea or even a defensible one. But they deserve every disadvantage this will eventually cause them. There are a lot of other people who don't, however.

Every single time we think we've dented bottom, the bottom eludes us. Not ensuring vulnerable girls intimate care by women (NOT MEN) is as low as we can go in the pursuit of validating men's feelings. Surely. But hey, we're open to more travesties, more absurdities, more injustices. Nothing this 'gender' cult produces can surprise us any longer. It's open season on women and children and young teens, and all good men's sense of stable biologically based reality, and the proper safeguarding resulting from the recognition of that reality. Pray for us, amen.

Meanwhile, here in the USATQ:

The captured news media (almost all of them) are, shock of shocks, actually reporting on the PM race because "it is turning into a trasnphobic spectacle:.

There is much consternation about the states and their citizens pushing back against the transing of minors . This is naturally being widely reported as anti-LGBTQ hate legislation that will bring about more suicide and murder.

Democrats are finally starting to discuss whether Biden will be too old to run in 2024 and governors like California's Newsom and Illinois' Pritzker are popping up outside their requisite states to catch attention. If you think that the Pritzker name sounds familiar, you would be right:
