Dinner, via waste management

Satire and commentary. Counts observed on 31 October 2026, rather than a live ranking.

Billy the Bully

Editor-in-Chief. Complaints Department. Unqualified.

He has no political allegiance, no relevant qualifications and a stamp he considers legally binding.

His duties include inspecting suspicious claims, interrupting important people and asking who approved this.

Corrections policy: If Billy gets something wrong, he’ll correct it. He’ll be unbearable about something else shortly afterwards.

A supporting role for the Kremlin

Reply to Financial Times coverage of accounts amplifying violent videos from France.

🤣 Apparently, even the French can’t organise a riot without Russian assistance.

Buildings burning, cars torched, streets in chaos. And somehow, the Kremlin gets a supporting role.

At this rate, Putin will be blamed for the French Revolution.

The newsroom missed the memo

Reply to The Sun’s latest royal-reconciliation front page.

Read your own comments section, The Sun. You’re so spectacularly out of touch with public opinion, it’s almost impressive. The public moved on from this royal soap opera years ago. Apparently, nobody thought to tell the newsroom.

Try a phone call

Reply to a New York Post story about a father returning from a 28-year walk.

Nothing says “I’d like to rebuild our relationship” quite like announcing to 122,000 strangers that you abandoned your eight-year-old son to go for a 28-year walk. Perhaps try a phone call before the next press release, mate. 🤣
