Absolute must read thread on digital ID.

I'm excited to have booked a couple of days in Coventry for my birthday. I can't wait to spend time in the cathedral and explore the lovely 20th century architecture. It's nice to have something to look forward to.

My grandad was on the same stage (but clothed!), suddenly feeling a bit odd 😬

That's a first. Flo went for a wander in a church and has set the alarm off. We're now waiting for the Churchwarden...

@timofnewbury.bsky.social Have you just got an email from Eurostar about Snap Savings? It feels like the kind of thing you'd be able to take advantage of.

I'm just waiting for Bluesky to catch up with the news that Dodds has left... @chairboys.co.uk @chapmanio.dev @w2aps.bsky.social

@panchoballard.bsky.social Woah you're going to Japan next month? I need to know all about your plan!

I can't help but think that @robert-brook.com's return to posting is some kind of series of clues we need to crack.

Is anyone collecting/ are there even any examples of effective community responses to the far right activity around at the moment?

If you're an NT member then please vote in the AGM. There are still Re$tore Tru$t candidates wanting to get their horrible mitts on the board.

Flo is about to head out on her first bus adventure.

Thanks to @raynewman.bsky.social for posting about Tidal this morning. I've logged on, transferred my music from the other place and have been listening to banging tunes all day.

This is a really interesting use of AI to catch financial fraudsters. share.google/0yAXXrvCvgyW...

Jesus, that just scared the life out of me 🚨

I can't wait to hear more about @nedboulting.bsky.social meeting Remco. An uber-schloog at the Tour of Britain today.

Rayner’s mistakes were to be a woman, working class and not to have ready access to specialist tax lawyers. Starmer either tackles the hegemonic power of media and class or this will be the last Labour government ever. His current team of wonks and Blueshirts are simply not up to the job.

I'm pissed off about the Rayner resignation. Right-wing malevolence, abuse and corruption has been rampant in the absence of any useful policy options. Why don't they root out the billions of pounds of trousered and corrupt finances during Covid, that would be nice.

Thanks for the #bandcampfriday nudge @raynewman.bsky.social. I've bought albums by Melin Melyn, Apta (via @warringtonruncorn.com mix) and Fortitude Valley. I'll have to get my @mnsfprdctn.bsky.social at a gig.

I'm really enjoying this @warringtonruncorn.com Freak Zone Playlist www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/...

@gargarin.bsky.social Are you watching the ToB on the TV? I'm not sure if I'm going mad with issues I'm having with the picture.

The most amazing thing has happened... a Columbo I've not seen before. It even has Lovejoy in. Lucky for me I'm ill and have a valid excuse for watching it on a sunny Sunday.

Rain!

Cycling fans: There is a 1-hour Vuelta highlights show every day, 7-8pm, on Quest.

As someone who has just had to empty their loft, you are never going to need that large, empty cardboard box you're storing just in case.

Bought 👍🏻👍🏻

Another review of my album that came out today. janglepophub.home.blog/2025/08/22/a... But the album here..: www.hefnet.com Or buy the downloads here… darrenhayman.bandcamp.com/album/amazin...

I've got a new injury to add to the comedy injuries list. I've just pulled something in my back trying to catch the sourdough dough I dropped in the kitchen.

@chairboys.co.uk I think I remember you posting about the international breaks over the summer. You don't happen to know/ remember how far out the club confirms postponed matches do you?

Odd that the BBC seems to have remade a whole radio series that @drkevinfong.bsky.social has already recorded and released. It's not that they wouldn't have known about it.

Did I just spot (sweet) Luke O'Nien in the new #TOTP credits? Always a Chairboy 💙

Today's adventures have led to an unexpected trip to a rather lovely tube station.

The review you've all been waiting for. I give the Elizabeth Line 👍🏻👍🏻

@raynewman.bsky.social If you haven't read this yet I'm recommending it to you. It could loosely be described as a psychological horror but it's better than that.

There are four series of Detective on Sounds if you fancy a Ray Brooks binge www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/brand...

This episode of Criminal, with kids solving crimes, is just delightful. share.google/l05YJ4ARNKGX...

The OU has been great in this area. We have a menopause policy for staff and there is a really supportive group that meets IRL and online 👏🏻

What a delight! So lovely to see everyone with their toys... and me and Bagpuss at the end :-)

@curiousscutter.bsky.social Happy birthday bud! 🎉🎁🚂🐏🪩🛸

How on *earth* have I just changed my spellcheck language to French?!

After 2 weeks of carrying everything about in a shoulder bag, and the resulting neck pain, I've decided to move into my french student phase and get a backpack. I'm thinking of getting a Passenger one, but are there other interesting brands? I won't be carrying a laptop, just everyday shit.

Things have been happening at the allotment while we've been away.

@pigsonthewing.org.uk Is this something you might know?

Eardisley font, a jewel of the Herefordshire school of carving #FontsonFriday

Tomorrow and Saturday the last two days of my exhibition of fairground paintings at Mario’s cafe in Kentish Town

I've just heard my first skibidi toilet in the wild.

Good on the local (Labour) MP for the bit of Wales I'm in, he's in the cafe I'm in to talk to local people about issues.

Staying on a farm for the last week has *mostly* been lovely but a spider landed on me in my sleep earlier this week and one has just jumped off my post-shower towel. My heart rate needs another holiday.

@lottesometimes.bsky.social Mark Silcox alert in Mandy episode 4.
