You’re not very attentive then. A certain supporter of Russian capitalism here has been the butt of some excellent humour – and rightly so – in case you hadn’t noticed
TS has certainly been the butt of repetitive abuse whereas I’ve received more than a fair share of sexism and misogyny. Your little sect needs to seriously fine tune your sense of humour – you never know, you may then be finally able to influence people and make a few converts. Fewer than 300 members after 119 years of existence is hardly anything to shout about.

Wasn’t he the shoeshine guy in the TV series?
The Chancellor is expected to extend the Energy Price Guarantee at current levels for a further three months, according to the BBC.
Typical household energy bills were scheduled to rise to £3,000 a year from April, but calls have been made for the government to retain its current level of support with the cap at £2,500.
The level of help is now expected to be maintained, but energy firms have been asked to prepare for both scenarios.
The Treasury declined to comment.
At the moment, the government is limiting the typical household bill to £2,500 a year, plus a £400 winter discount.
From 1 April the help is scheduled to be scaled back, and the £400 discount will come to an end, which could push people’s bills up despite the weather getting warmer.
Fuel poverty campaigners have said the number of households struggling to afford bills could rise from 6.7 million to 8.4 million as a result of the April rise.
However, industry sources told the BBC that some energy companies have already started amending future bills to reflect that energy help will continue at or very near to current levels beyond 1 April.
Yet another confirmation of the Party’s bank theory
And a prime example of quote mining.
“The troubles facing SVB were relatively unique – given it serves startups in the tech sector, for which funding has dried up in recent months. Silicon Valley was heavily exposed to the tech industry and there is little chance of contagion in the banking sector similar to the chaos in the months leading up to the recession more than a decade ago. The biggest banks – those most likely to cause a systemic economic issue – have healthy balance sheets and plenty of capital.”

And that makes you happy?
Too damn right, particularly if those government handouts help to pay other bills, such as my recent flight to Austria and now my car insurance renewal premium. Only a dumbfuck wouldn’t be.
Dear God.
I thought you little band of brothers were materialists!
Plonkers, more like!
Just received the Alternative Fuels Payment of £200 which is in addition to the monthly discount of £67 payable under the Energy Bills Support Scheme.
The beating wasn’t the undoing of Rodney King, but the compensation he was awarded. He was found stuffed full of drugs at the bottom of his own swimming-pool.
You forgot to mention that King’s cardiomegaly and focal myocardial fibrosis were contributory factors in his death.
Yippee! Received another £67 towards my most recent monthly electricity bill which will help to pay for my flight to Austria for the ‘hols’.
Don’t worry guys – I’ll be back in the New Year.
Frohe Weihnachten! xxx
Ah yes, the multi-talented Sabine Hossenfelder.
Lizzie, did you bring your popcorn?
Absolutely not. I’ve just had something far more substantial and satisfying! 🙂
