I like that that one. It's a portmanteau of mec (a guy) and expliquer (to explain)

For a minute there it looked like we had a chance. We, I at least, voted with a sense of holy shit this might just happen, I need to be serious about this decision. And then, suddenly, we're nailed to England forever as they drag us into ever worse decisions. I'm still not ready to be calm either!

Plus they conflated Alec Salmond being a smug self satisfied prick (which, fair) with the cause of independence (unfair; we needed independence so the SNP could fracture into the three smaller parties in a trenchcoat it always was) Still, wistful thoughts about could've beens is the Scottish way

A lot of old people scared of change and scared for their pensions (how's that looking now?) and repeating "he doesn't have a plan for the currency" as though use the pound for a bit then the Euro isn't a plan, and told they had to vote against in order to stay in the EU (how's THAT working out)

They decided he'd "always wanted" a free holiday to Barbados or wherever the fuck, at the height of the pandemic. It's not a great idea to take frail old people on long plane journeys at the best of times. He died, Horrible Daughter got a holiday.

Yo, dog, I heard you liked fish. This is a foolish pastime, an attempt to distract from the hollowness of life and the inevitability of eventual death by watching brightly coloured prisoners living constrained lives. They cannot love you. I did not put fish in your car. That would be ridiculous.

The interesting thing about that one for me is that the historic Labour defeat of 2019 happened on a vote share that was 8th best out of the last 12 elections, and the historic Labour victory of 2024 was achieved on a vote share 7th best of 12 FPTP is a crazy system...

Also some alt text would be nice. Plus that's actually a photo of the designer's flat and not the interior of the Prime Minister's actual flat. Not to mention the Lulu Lytle refurb was 2021 and two prime ministers ago, one of whom had time to make some changes, so who knows what it looks like now

Any form of nationalised energy is anathema to these neoliberal clowns so we get a flag stuck on an investment vehicle and a cheery sounding promise wrapped in small print *not actually true in any real sense **It'll take ages even if it works ***compared to some imaginary even higher bills

I'm far from convinced you should use "tansplain", a word specific to British incomprehension of and ingrained undeserved sense of cultural superiority to Ireland, in non Irish contexts It's a great word. But maybe you need a different word.
