Aaaand.... Beckham gets added to the list of muted words & tags... #whocares

I'm torn between: 'Pay no attention to this, you'll only encourage him' and 'The man is a tyrant & must be stopped'.

Caught my car odometer at 88888 recently. Just watched it click over from 88999 to 89000 on our current trip. Wonder if I'll be so lucky to catch it hit 90000?

Millions of euro worth of international aid meant for people starving in Gaza is expiring in warehouses in Jordan. At the Al-Ghabawi facility, aid workers have described the situation as “death by bureaucracy”, with lifesaving supplies sitting unused. jrnl.ie/6927034

🚨 Significant Outbreak of Crabs in Donegal #speirgorm #fixedit

The proprietor of The Other Place has been cozying up to white supremacism. I want to make sure we’re clear on that as he tries to get back in Trump’s favor and his companies become even more closely meshed with the Pentagon.

Every hour between Monday and Tuesday, Twitter generated 6,700 sexual deepfake images. Experts say it has become the biggest online factory of such material in the world. This was a trend once on the darkest corners of the web - now pushed by a billionaire into the mainstream.

Think the best way for me to burn calories right now would be to gather all the leftover biscuits, chocolate, and sweets from Christmas, and set them on fire. #newyearnewme 🔥

Thought I was seeing a bit of a stretch in the evening tonight. Turns out I'd just left work early.

Spotify gave me a listening age of 76 for'25, streaming '60s music I guess, & I was wondering: why tell me that & what do they want from me? Could it be to try embarrass me into streaming new/younger artists? Maybe I just like good music? Assessing my CD collection would shave 30yrs off that.

Current listening on my start back to work. I'd been meaning to buy this for about 25yrs, so added it to my Christmas list. #DavidGray #sellsellsell

A bit disappointed with the variety of films on TV this afternoon. Herbie Goes to Monte Carlo is on Disney+

Time for Christmas leftover sandwiches. Served with a side of pringles & glass of fizzy orange.

About to rewatch In Bruges. Of course we don't f*ckn haff'ta, but it's a Christmas film. #InBruges

A successful morning 😊 Turkey's in, cooking is well underway. I'll be taking care of business in the kitchen for the next few hours. As VictoriaWood sang: 🎶 I'll make them gather round the Christmas table And eat until to move they are unable. They'll wish that Joseph never found that stable 🎶

Watching Die Hard, again, which I must have seen at least 30 times. Each time the deputy police chief arrives on the scene though I always think of this...😅
