Sorry to see your feed has been a tad toxic & heavy lately @dankaszeta.bsky.social, so to - maybe - lighten the mood a little, I came across this by chance the other day. Having seen a couple of the trailers I’d say it definitely falls into the category of “So bad it’s good”.

Good #bouldering session at #RedSpiderClimbing in Fareham today instead of #Bouldershack. Interesting setting, they like a high foot and committing final move. Session ended by some collateral damage when I slipped off a volume on a running start. Not looking forward to tearing this off! 😣

Lots of great food options here at the Feastleigh Food & Drink festival in Leigh Road Rec in #Eastleigh. The rain’s clearing so come down for lunch & a chat about cutting your #energybills with #solarpanels and #batterystorage. #independent #InPerson #Impartial

You know that soreness & ache you get a few hours after a good #bouldering session, when you’ve climbed hard & sent a couple of projects, then knocked out some weights afterwards? The sort that means you’ll feel just that little bit stronger for your next session? Yeah, that. 🙂💪🏻

League 1 Minus 10: Premier League Match 22 - Nottingham Forest 3 Southampton 2. RPs appreciated. #saintsfc save face but lose again. Featuring Downes mission, integrity scheduling, Tall Paul Redemption, being crap in both boxes and propaganda football. leagueoneminus10.blogspot.com/2025/01/prem...

Israel plans to establish two zones of influence in Syria, one 15 km deep, with a permanent Israeli military presence, and the second, 60 km deep, reaching Damascus, under Israeli intelligence control. (Ynet)

Interesting footnote to this story: at the very end of the article it says that mining & trading #Bitcoin is illegal in China, a very rare case where I agree with a Chinese government policy.

Small but perfectly formed red cabbage from the garden. #GrowYourOwnVeg #Gardening

#uksnow SO30 1/10, sleet just turned to wet snow for a while.

#NewShoes day. They’re a bit different to what I’m used to, & very……snug. #Bouldering.

Most content on #UkrainianView is of course serious, but a nation’s cooking is part of its culture & needs to be preserved like anything else. We’re lucky to have Ukrainian friends here in the UK who have made us some lovely food & today’s was this amazing sourdough & sour cream cake. #SlavaUkraini

New Year Goals.

Another good reason to donate, as if you needed one.

It’s not only people that have to make room at this time of year - this is the temporary accommodation for a friend’s guinea pigs. #duvetknowitschristmas

When water was privatised we were promised huge private investment in ancient infrastructure to benefit consumers. Instead we've seen shareholders enriched, rivers & seas disgustingly polluted, infrastructure broken, consumers ripped off, regulators useless & politicians impotent. Renationalise now

I'm just catching up with #MOTD from last Wednesday, and I do not understand the laws or how refs & VAR are interpreting them now. #Everton have a goal disallowed for "subjective offside, because one of their players blocks a defender, even though the scorer beats 3 other defenders to the ball....

Some great route setting for this year’s #Bouldershack Megaseries finals. This little video doesn’t tell you what they were like in practice……. 1/…#Bouldering #Southampton

Presumably that’ll be in the sprinkler system now.

#UKSnow getting harder in SO30, now 6/10 & settling.

Quality.

South Gwynedd foodbank need a wide variety of items for their parcels including packets of mash, shampoo and sweetcorn. Or just give them money so they can fill the gaps where needed: www.paypal.com/gb/fundraise... #BaublesToAdvent 6/7

Right #BaublesToAdvent - because a reverse advent calendar for the foodbank is cute & all but a lot of foodbanks need supplies right now. I started this on Twitter - basically I’ll flag 5 foodbanks a day for 24 days for you to support with donation ideas. The first idea: cold hard cash 1/8

#Bluesky currently accounts increasing by 700 a minute - watching the figures refresh here is slightly mesmerising. bsky.jazco.dev/stats

I’m here on the BlueSky app ! I’ll still be posting on Twitter alongside (for now) . . . but it sure does look nicer over here without the bots ! 🦋

I sometimes run through a tricky #bouldering problem in my head to help me get to sleep, but last night was the first time I recall dreaming about it. Must be something to do with having to go 7 days between sessions this week.😕 Not actually the Burden of Dreams though! m.youtube.com/watch?v=uTZS...

😀

The four Cs of why to come #bouldering at #BoulderShack #Southampton: climbing, coffee, cake, & company (just out of shot).

This is by far the most gorgeous thing I’ve harvested since replacing some of our lawn with raised veg beds 3 years ago. Very satisfying! #GrowYourOwn

How much more of this must there be before #Biden allows #Ukraine to use longer-range weapons to strike inside Russia? Surely he doesn’t think the Ukrainians will do the same thing?

If it was just a matter of fighting the bots & bigots then I might stick with it, but you’re also working against Musk’s changes which are actively trying to give it to them, and staying simply helps with their & his monetisation. I don’t care if it ends up as Truth Social 2….. 1/

The skin of a baked potato is the only bit really worth eating, the rest only if I’m really hungry, otherwise it’s just soup base.

Thank you Marina Hyde. Thank you Saoirse Ronan. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Really wild Global Witness undercover sting here, revealing a senior COP29 official working to arrange fossil fuel deals at the event next week I know you aren't surprised by this, but please do stay angry and loud about it www.globalwitness.org/en/campaigns...

BOOKMARKING: For new Bluesky users ("newskies"!) wondering about the 📌 emoji, that's an informal bookmark feature as we await a future official one. Just reply to any post with 📌, and the post will be added to this feed (which you can pin to your top/sidebar for ready access):

As a #SaintsFC fan, I consider other club’s fans singing “Oh when the <insert word of choice> go marching in”, to be theft & it really grinds my gears (especially Spurs) but Man City playing & singing Hey Jude before a match feels more like cultural appropriation. #OWTS #COYR

To anyone who’s joined Bluesky in the last few days after being tagged by me, welcome & I hope this will be useful.

At last, there's a searchable directory of Bluesky starter packs, courtesy of @mubashariqbal.com! Just one more way third-party developers are helping to make this place better. Search starter packs by keyword, and sort by "Uses" to see which ones people are finding the most helpful

Moral dilemma, opinions sought. Last week 4 bags of rubbish were left in the entrance to a local car park - it happens a lot there. Today I got tired of walking past it & removed 1 to take out the recyclables & dispose of in our bins. Inside I found 2 items with the same name & address on them.

Is it me, or is this a really odd follow for me to get? Anyone else had this? D’you think the account is genuine?

Well US #Election2024 isn’t looking good unless you’re a Trump supporter. If you want to look at the results at a granular level I recommend the NBC website. www.nbcnews.com/politics/202...
