I thought Iâd pop back after 2 years of not posting to let you all know that I live in a perfectly normal country
just some thoughts..
Thank you Tumblr user destiel for making a post that is so niche that in three months people wonât understand
A man commits manslaughter and then hides the body, and he is so traumatised by it he starts unconsciously changing his appearance to look like the dead man, until all he has left is to convince himself and others that he should take the dead manâs place to carry on his legacy.
A horrible drama or The Santa Clause starring Tim Allen?
Are they deliberately choosing to keep the blandest people in this year?
The projects that I end up doing, that I want to be involved with in any way, have always been projects that will be impactful, for the most part, to my people â to black people. To see black people in ways which you have not seen them before. So Black Panther was on my radar, and in my dreams.
Me: Iâm so excited by the potential with digital art I could do so much cool stuff
My brain: what if pikachu was rabbit
how fucking arrogant can you be to think any eugenics program could ever weed out âfascist geneticsâ. even if the âdark triadâ was a reliable precursor to fascist ideology and even if âdark triad traitsâ could be reliably linked to genotype (they arenât and they canât be), how fucking far to jupiter are you if you think you can remove it from a population of seven billion, let alone in some âanarchistâ manner? how do you programmatically sterilize anyone in an âanarchistâ manner?
Do you ever see some discourse float by and think âMaybe Iâm not hanging out on the worst parts of Tumblr, actuallyâ
Okay who is this fucker and what did he do?
So you know when youâre out walking in the street and all of a sudden you can just tell that youâve stepped in chewing gum, because your shoe feels oddly sticky, but thereâs nowhere for you to wipe the gum off, so you have to wait until you get home and then you pull off your shoe and thereâs just this huge, amorphous blob of shit-and-saliva coated gum, and it clings to all the grooves in the tread of your shoe and it takes half a roll of toilet paper to get it off, and you just wish you were never born? Thatâs Dominic Cummings.
To sum up why I want him to fuck himself with something hard and sandpapery:
He was one of the devious, morally bankrupt fuckstains who was responsible for the Vote Leave campaign in 2015-16, which (unfortunately) successfully campaigned for Britain to leave the EU, and was later found to have broken electoral law by spending more than its campaign budget and funnelling it through allied campaigns. It was also fined for improperly collecting peopleâs phone numbers and spamming them with political texts. He was later found to be in contempt of Parliament for refusing to take part in an investigation about whether the campaign had relied on fake news during the referendum. He was also later revealed to be a huge hyposhit, which is a portmanteau I just coined to describe a hypocrite who is also a complete unremovable shitstain, when it was reported that heâd taken over âŹ200k of EU subsidies to manage his land.
He was the Special Advisor to Michael Gove before this, a man who consists of approximately 98% tapioca and 2% spine. When he was the Secretary for Education and Cummings was his advisor, Gove completely decimated Englandâs education system and made working conditions practically untenable for teachers. Cummingsâ complete lack of moral fabric was pretty famous within his own party, with even Mr Fuckthepoor himself, David Cameron, referring to him as a âcareer psychopathâ. When another psychopath is calling you a psychopath and doesnât mean it as a compliment, youâre probably a bit of a shit.
In July 2019, when sentient gargoyle wrapped in ham Boris Johnson became Prime Minister, he made Dominic Cummings his Senior Advisor. It soon became pretty apparent that he was untouchable in this role after he fired (read: had her frogmarched out of Parliament by literal armed police) Sonia Khan, an aide to Sajid Javid, without asking Sajid Javidâs permission, something he wasnât actually allowed to do, and then, instead of giving him a thorough telling off for overstepping, Boris Johnson gave him retroactive powers to fire anyone he wanted. This pattern of Cummings blatantly acting outside of his sphere of responsibility and indeed permission and then being backed up by the Prime Minister came to a big olâ motherfucking head this week WHEN
Dominic Cummings, a man who thinks a âsoulâ is just a different way to spell the bottom part of a foot, broke the lockdown rules of the UK by driving his wife, who was symptomatic with COVID-19, and child 260 miles from London to Durham. Despite the official line being that anyone with symptoms was to quarantine themselves, Cummings decided to drive halfway up the fucking country for âchildcare reasonsâ, obviously stopping at services along the way, because apparently Typhoid Mary is one of his idols, I guess. This is blatantly a fireable offence, not least because another minister resigned for breaking lockdown rules recently, which was met with stern grumbles of 'yeah, you NEED to resign, you terrible ingrateâ from just about every Tory minister. However, instead of pressuring Cummings to resign or punting him into the sun, Johnson defended him, saying he had 'followed his fatherly instinctsâ (a hilarious defence, seeing as Johnsonâs own fatherly compass is pretty fucking broken) and acted with 'integrityâ. Some fellow MPs, notably Health Secretary Matt Hancock, whoâd chided Ferguson for breaking lockdown rules, defended Cummings on Twitter, trotting out lines about what a great father he was and how people are just being MEAN to a WORKING FATHER, and it became pretty apparent that Cummings was not going to face any sort of reprimand at all.
Shit, my friends, hit the proverbial goddamn fan. People rightly pointed out that thousands of people across the country had been unable to follow their 'fatherly instinctsâ because theyâd chosen to follow the, uh, actual law instead (tw for death of a child in that link.) There is some evidence that he may have travelled to grieve his dead uncle with his family, which, while VERY SAD, is a total slap in the face to people who have been unable to grieve their dead relatives with their family because theyâve followed restrictions (in the UK, funerals are limited to very few attendees, wakes are banned, burials canât be attended, and you canât visit dying people in the hospital.) Thousands of people have missed the deaths of their loved ones, or been a single parent and had to care for a child while symptomatic, or not seen their children whilst ill, or had to grieve a death alone. Essentially, by defending and exonerating Cummings, the government has told these people 'we know we said you couldnât hold your dying motherâs hand / care for your sick child / visit your ill relatives / grieve as a family, but⊠turns out you couldâve, lol!â
Now, there are calls from some rare Tories who evolved to have a spine for Cummings to be fired, the whole country is basically saying 'well, if he can do it, then why canât I?â and threatening to break lockdown, and weâre all wondering exactly what kind of saucy photos Cummings clearly has of Boris Johnson for him to be so ridiculously untouchable. You could tip a whole (EU subsidised) farmâs worth of manure on Cummings and none of it would stick, except this manure also carries a deadly virus. Itâs super.
So, tl;dr, heâs Typhoid Mary who knows all of Boris Johnsonâs darkest secrets and isnât afraid to use them.
This is an excellent sum up of why Gollumy Scummings is one of the worst shit stains in English politics today and why we are spitting mad about the whole affair.
There are also allegations that, not only did the pissgargling bastard travel the 260 miles up with his infected wife but also that they took various days out while there to leisure spots up to 30 miles away. Some of which have credence because a witness reported the licence plate of the car to the police and Cummings has been seen driving that car before. All whilst the official government rules were to STAY HOME and SAVE THE NHS. (No links to sources because Iâm on mobile but itâs all over the UK newspapers. Sky news broke the story about the car licence plate)
So yeah. The message from Boris Johnson and his crony Tories is loud and clear:
a) that description of Michael Gove is spot on and will be forever how I see him, and
b) I only have this image of Dominic on file

Oh, and if youâre wondering how badly theyâre doing with this: theyâve held 3 press conferences addressing this, and every time the public has come back and said ânah heâs a twat, sack himâ. Yet they keep holding more press conferences to defend their stance. Itâs got so bad that the Daily Mail* is no longer supporting them.Â
No really they lost them.
[Alt Text: Daily Mail front page for 25th May 2020. Headline reads âWhat Planet Are They On?â in large capital letters, alongside two large photos of Boris Johnson and Dominic Cummings.]
Then after the press conference last night, some legend tweeted this from the official UK Civil Service account. They deleted it quickly, but not quick enough for the internet.

*if anyone was wondering whether well known bland racist Christmas ham Piers Morgan was supporting this, then the answer is no, absolutely not. Heâs been railing against the government for weeks that theyâre doing a terrible job. Which is honest to god really confusing and I donât know what to think anymore.
Legitimately, this guy is holding a press conference this afternoon to explain himself, and heâs not even an elected official. But now itâs clear who controls this government, and itâs not our ham wrapped gargoyle of a Prime Minister.
I really must apologise for extending the post so that itâs now even longer than Demonic Cummingsâ completely unnecessary jaunt to Durham, but I feel like I am now morally obligated to provide a rundown of what went down at that aforementioned press conference, because I watched it barefoot whilst yelling insults around a mug cake in the kitchen and honestly Iâm just mad that I cooked the mug cake before I turned on the press conference, because I could have saved some money on the electricity bill by cooking it with the sheer heat of my incandescent rage:
Firstly, he was more than half an hour late, which really did set the tone of complete disrespect and disdain that he clearly intended, so kudos to him for knowing how to make an entrance, just like any supervillain should.
His primary defence was literally âthe public arenât angry because I made this trip; theyâre angry because of the way the media reported on it, and I think theyâll calm down once they hear my side of things.â Reader, we did not calm down. Cummings has a long and storied history of taking a leaf out of Trumpâs book (not one of his ghostwritten ones) and blaming the fake news media for everything, and unfortunately itâs worked out pretty well for him so far, but it completely fell flat this time as journalist after journalist bombarded him with proof, accusations and questions that made even me, someone who would suck my own tears back into my face if I was cutting onions next to Dominic Cummings on fire, wince.
His other defence was âI had to leave my house because people donât like me and I didnât feel safe in my house, and thatâs why I lied and said that I was in London the entire time,â which does rather beg the question of why our taxes go towards providing government security, to be honest. Maybe we could have put all that money towards PPE after all.
Another hilarious defence was âwhen I made the 45 minute drive to visit Barnard Castle, sat there for 15 minutes, spoke to a passer-by, then had a little stroll in the woods with my wife and child on the way home, I was actually just testing my eyesight to see if I could make the longer drive back home,â which is simply comedy gold on several levels: firstly because itâs illegal in the UK to drive a vehicle if youâre worried about your eyesight; and secondly because if your metric for whether youâre safe to drive or not is âcan I see that bloody stonking great castle in front of me?â then youâre probably not actually safe to drive. Essentially, he blatantly went out for a little jaunt and is now trying to make up an excuse, but Iâm quite disappointed that âI was testing my two eyeballsâ was the best that a man who frequently lies for a living could come up with.
He also says that if anyone feels betrayed by his actions and decides to follow his example and break lockdown rules, itâs the fault of the media (exact quote: the coverage over the past couple of days could encourage people to behave in a certain way) which is not so much passing the buck as spotting the buck on the distant horizon and taking a 260 mile detour to avoid it.
Above all, he flatly stated several times that he had never offered to resign or even considered resigning, and that he thinks the public will see his side of things after the press conference, which seems optimistic, considering that Twitter is currently overflowing with more bile than a leak at the urology ward. Heâs currently trending with the hashtag #cumgate, which is quite funny but I think also a little unfair, because semen is at least responsible for bringing life into the world, whereas Dominic Cummings literally endangered lives so that he could look at a castle.
Perhaps the most disappointing element of all was that this is how he deigned to dress:
[Image description: Dominic Cummings at the press conference in the garden of 10 Downing Street, dressed casually in a white shirt with no tie, the top few buttons undone, and the sleeves rolled up to his elbows]
Which as anyone knows is absolutely not how a burgeoning supervillain should comport oneself. He should, at the very least, have worn a cape.
ON TOP OF ALL OF THIS bargain bucket Gollum turned out to have actually taken his child in the car with him whilst attempting to âtest his eyesightâ. Considering he apparently originally took a 260 mile trip during lockdown for the benefit of his child, it seems strange that he then chose to do a 60 mile roundtrip with his child in the car when his eyesight could have been totally off and he couldnât drive properly. Or at least it seems strange until you remember that this meat Dalek thinks heâs the exception to the rule in every single case and couldnât give a shit that his excuses are so see-through that he could ironically see through them even with terrible eyesight.Â
Meanwhile, big players in the Tory party have been prostrating themselves to defend him like so many cloaks over puddles to keep Cummings from getting his feet wet, but they are all failing to realise that they are already chin-deep in a giant Watergate that isnât going to go away just because this bellend showed his face on TV.Â
