You won’t see it widely reported on here, but Meta’s text based platform Threads is now bigger than MuskTwitter. Visibility isn’t penalised either. 11,000 followers twitter, 300 or so over there, same post, 5000 views versus 1500. (Here, probably no one 😂)

Credit that Ali Samson from Twitter for the video :)

We don’t really need timeline cleansers here so much but here’s one anyway.

Any particular reason why you are being extra rude to your callers today @mrjamesob.bsky.social ?

Oof! What a last few of minutes in the Calcutta cup. Congratulations England, unlucky Scotland, beautiful pass and try. #SixNationsRugby

Wish you had allowed us to hear what is lived experience was @mrjamesob.bsky.social You didn’t come off great there tbh

Labour are delivering on the NHS. 40,000 extra appointments a week. Remarkable.

The difference between the U.K. and the US is two weeks after changing government in the US they launch a global trade war and decimate the government institutions, and in the U.K. the media meltdown because the PM didn’t buy his own suit and had to swap seats at the footy.

Assume we’re all pretending that a high profile AFD supporter doing a Nazi salute at the USA President’s inauguration is a “nothing to see here…”

The CAA set the most obvious trap last weekend, they’ve been attempting it over and over again for fifteen months, flagged it at every turn, and after all this time PSC and STW “marched” straight into it. Unbelievable arrogance stupidity.

As the news discourse is so relentlessly dull presently, I decided to treat myself and rediscover my love for a good tune. Bought these little pieces of audiophile engineering art. Oh my, they are so good! 🎶

Bold move for an entitled London cyclist to ride straight at me after taking exception to me taking to long to limp across the road, however the the loud public admonishment hurled at him from wing woman @ferretgrove.bsky.social was very funny.

Had a visitor.

Pretty much every night Samson steals my seat on the sofa (he has his own armchair), however the last two nights we have no sofa, it’s been removed to make room for a new one, so consequently I stole his armchair. This is the new seating arrangement.

Why do people make up complete crap like this when challenged? Such cowardly behaviour.

I just peeled a pomegranate without making a mess and crushing the fruit. I cannot describe how satisfying this is. Proudface.

In case any of you are missing Twitter. It’s still as lovely as ever. Apparently this kindly fella is actually a grown up, an academic, an author and teacher 🤷‍♀️

On the bill to give already dying people the choice to seek assistance in ending their suffering. Not heard one word from anyone against it that actually addresses the way I’ve framed it, outside of against the principle. Plenty of arguments against a bill that doesn’t exist mind

.@LouHaigh should not have resigned. I know it’s not a very academic/liberal talking head position to take, but I don’t care it’s mine, the Starmer government should tell the Westminster media to fck off. (I should be in charge of Labour comms)

Morning

Not on my watch Nigel - abortion time limits protect those who face the tragedy of fatal foetal abnormality from being forced to give birth to a baby that will die, not a weapon for you to get votes.

Most of the objections to the choice to seek assistance to shorten your death legislation seem to be either a criticism of not adequately funded palliative care, or an objection to existing legislation in another country, or some odd concern that one parliament can’t bind another

Wishing death on someone will do that you vile little man. Tick tock…

It’s probably frowned upon to cross post from the other place but…

Apparently this little fcker has an account on here. If anyone knows it, let me know eh

Good dogs 😊

*unlikely to be in a Starter Pack*

These starter packs for people to follow are great but I do worry about them as block lists. I’ve looked at a couple and on both I found accounts that didn’t belong there. If a big account in your area of interest puts you on one, by accident or otherwise, you might as well give up this platform.

Opponents to the assisted dying bill oppose assisted dying on principle, then argue the technical points to discredit the bill. Proponents of decriminalisation of assisting people who’ve made the choice to shorten their death, think at least the bill is a start in that direction.

Snowy trip to work this morning

You also get a job for life, a mortgage free home and your parents might also get a mortgage free home on your property.

Posted this on twitter and threads too. Went viral on twitter, but oh my the abuse! Off the scale. People on the right of politics absolutely loathe people in poverty with children.

Was listening to a topic about child poverty today and how there are 150,000 kids who leave school everyday and don’t have a proper home to go to. Anyway big protest tomorrow to try and make sure kids getting a free farm worth more than 3 million don’t pay any tax on it 👍

Words no longer have meanings. “Woke sandwiches” 🤷‍♀️

.@NickFerrariLBC is complaining the prime minister ISN’T working from home 😂

I don’t like block lists.

Well whatever happens I think we can agree Jake Paul is an absolute throbber.

Well one thing I’ve learned from the fight chat is a hell of a lot of young people think you’re pretty much done by your mid fifties. Lmao.

Today the day is I get to train Grok and how to Twitter proper is it.

I worry a bit about those big block lists I keep seeing here. I had a look at one earlier and whilst I’d have no problem blocking most of the accounts, there were a few that seemed perfectly reasonable. End up on one of those by accident or for malicious reasons and you might as well give up here.

Oh thank fuck for that. Was worried there were no absolute throbbers on here to point and laugh at. This place has some potential after all ;)

Are there, any, conservative commentators on here?

Imagine having all the money, and power in the world, but still being so insecure about your physical appearance you’re reduced to sharing fake images of yourself pretty much daily.

Dear lord Kemi is going to need to improve 😬 This is embarrassing. #Pmqs

I hear BBC and Church of England in discussions over Gary Lineker Justin Welby transfer swap.

I don’t believe society is ready yet to give elderly/sick or dying people the agency of making their own decisions. Patronising dismissal of their feelings by those that know better will always win out for now.
