I see Facebook is once again recommending that people become flat earthers.
Like they used to in 2015, but stopped doing around 2017 or 2018, I believe.
Time is, ironically, a flat circle,
On the left: what happens when I need to get Mildred into the carrier to take to the vet for her vaccinations.
On the right: what happens when I then leave the cat carrier out in the days after her vet trip.
This cat is straight-out trolling me right here.
OK, I'm into the Q&A, finally, and once again, it's a total farce. I mean, the panel is so large that they don't all fit in shot. 11 people!
I've had to draw in half of one person, and then Tess Lawrie on the far end.
Plus Neil Oliver is sat behind the guy who is stood up. It's not clear why, because he hasn't been involved in this session, but I GUARANTEE he will answer at least one question.
I've remembered to alt-tag the image this time, too.
immediately after Bridgen is another sovereign citizen speaker, Karen-Ruth Skolmli, who shares this slide on law and jurisdiction.
She explains that all legislation is either unnecessary or unlawful. If it aligns with natural law, it is unnecessary; if it goes against natural law, then it’s unlawful anyway.
I've not posted here too often lately, but I just had to share this - I've just released my interview with Matt Le Tissier, the former international footballer turned conspiracy promoter. As best as I can tell, it's the only time Matt has been interviewed about his beliefs by someone who doesn't agree with him.

Very much enjoyed this meme, shared by an antivaxxer and climate change denier who thinks this is some kind of gotcha about fact checkers.
I mean… she literally didn’t die.
So, LGB Alliance HQ is at 55 Tufton Street, the right-wing home of the well-funded culture war? You don’t just set up office in the HQ of the IEA (and the climate change denial charity Net Zero Watch, and Migration Watch) for its handy transport links.
This might be entirely innocent. It might just be that the right-wing libertarian think tank offered affordable rates… but that should still give any charity pause for thought, if climate change deniers et al think your charity aligns with them
