Attention decent people, just because the Hungarian people have deposed a right wing nut-job, the fight goes on, keep your eye on the ball, continue to call out these nationalist demagogues for what they are, dangerous sociopaths. Thank you for your attention Is this matter. Facetious J Maximus.

75% of sports broadcasting these days is people talking about it, with hardly any actual sport. If somebody was able to tap into the energy from the guff coming out of presenters mouths when talking about sport, there would never be another energy crisis...ever! Shut up and get on with the game.🙄

Absolutely remarkable statement from Pope Leo today. One for the history books www.theguardian.com/world/2026/a...

Another 80 minutes of obscurities discovered by trawling the obscure corridors of Bandcamp. #nowplaying #bandcamp #playlists #bandcampplaylists

I absolutely love Bandcamp, my goto digital platform. I've discovered some amazing gems over the years. Here's a selection. #nowplaying #Bandcamp #playlist #bandcampplaylists

Is President Trump talking about genocide in his latest ramblings on social media when he says "a whole civilisation will die tonight"? It sounds like it to me, and I'm looking forward to his war crimes trial already.🙄

Kanye wanted to speak to Jewish leaders to show how sorry he was for accidently being a Nazi. If he's truly sorry, he should still do that, despite this festival being cancelled. It's a long road back. #kanyewest #wirelessfestival

I hate that blundering arrogant cunt in The White House.🙄

That orange fuckwit in the White House has got the negotiating style of a school bully. Open the Strait of Hormuz or we'll destroy your your energy facilities, is no different to give me your dinner money, it I'll smash your face in. The art of the deal my fucking arse.🙄

I shall be there is spirit.

I'm a big tennis fan, but the sight of a boy holding a brolly over a player as she is escorted off court because of a rain shower at the Miami Open is pathetic. Hold your own brolly you spoilt brat.🙄 #tennissky #tennis #miamiopen

"It's your mess you stupid dick, you sort it out" said all NATO allies.🙄

Just when you thought music could no longer surprise and excite you, along comes Kim Gordon and her weird dissonant electronica. Brilliant stuff.🙂 #Nowplaying #musicsky #kimgordon #playme

Most of the media reflects neither reality nor public opinion. It reflects the views and demands of those who own it: the Oligarch Class. They employ editors and journalists to channel their demands and sell their fictions. Hence the endless attacks on net zero. www.theguardian.com/environment/...

Another great and informative piece from George Monbiot, which had me gnashing my teeth, again.🙄

This new one by Gorillaz is absolutely superb. Damon Albarn's creativity and consistency on this project is nothing less than astonishing. Take that Liam and Noel with your bland Beatles tribute act. The "Battle of Britpop" is over. 🙂 #nowplaying #musicsky #gorillaz #britpop

What the actual fuck!😲

Who else turns off the radio on Sunday morning as soon as Cerys Matthews comes on #6music. Asking for a friend.🙂

No, send your own ships, you moronic twat.🙄

Thoroughly enjoying the Cardianals album at the moment. 10 out of 10 for the music boys, but a poor 1 out of 10 for the packaging, surely we should get more than a thin carboard sleeve for our dough.🙄 #cardinals #nowplaying #musicsky

"He does not deserve the benefit of the doubt. He does not deserve his war to be assessed charitably. He deserves our contempt."

A fascinating article which had me gnashing and gnawing as I read. And he is correct in his final conclusion, we are being gaslit, on a massive scale.🙄

To paraphrase indie pop group the Kaiser Chiefs, everyday I love this world less and less.🙄

Vladimir Putin starts a war in Ukraine and Russia immediately becomes an international pariah, sanctioned, and banned from taking part in any international sporting events; Donald Trump starts a war with Iran and the world is asked to join in, and go to the FIFA World Cup in the US. Unbelievable. 🙄

For International Women's Day, a small selection of my favourite international women, and some provincial ones too.🙂 #internationalwomensday

Was reading about A Very English Chat today, a campaign to identify things that represent the diverse nature of modern Englishness. Here's my 5 choices. 1. The pork pie. 2. The band XTC. 3. Village cricket in beautiful locations. 4. The Lake District. 5. William Wordsworth. #averyenglishchat

Not sure about anybody else, but following the horrible mess unfolding in Iran and the wider region, makes me feel physically sick. I'm convinced Trump has concocted this war, because Iran is an easy target, but also to demonstrate his strong arm approach to the other nations he has in his sights.☹

Too right.👍

Why is it, when I switch over to the Winter Olympics, I can't help but think it's just posh kids playing out. Probably because that's exactly what it is.🙄

Wow, that French pair's ice dance was incredible, not what I would describe as sport, but beautiful all the same.🙂

I'll say this again, it's not the immigrants ruining the world, it's the mega rich, not paying their taxes, coveting their wealth, and doing fuck all good with their money and power that's ruining it. Immigrants are not the cause of a troubled and unequal world, they're a consequence of it.🙄

I don't quite get winter sports, mostly it's just people sliding around on stuff, fractionally faster or slower, wearing different coloured bodysuits. I could probably watch curling forever and still not understand it. I did enjoy the short track speedskating today though.🤔

Go Bruce.👊

Never a truer word.

Ha ha ha! Another failed Tory politician defects to Reform UK. What a circus. Anybody who thinks this motley band of rouges, snakes, vipers, and self-interested backstabbing has-beens have got their back, is more deluded than I originally thought.🙄

Lies, deceit, betrayal, backstabbing, even murder, truly horrible human characteristics, so why do we celebrate them in a TV entertainment show called The Traitors, especially against a backdrop of a world sliding quickly into a moral sewer. Is it just me? Am I missing something?🤔

“Danish citizens are organising a huge boycott that includes cancelling planned holidays in the US, cancelling subscriptions to on-demand services based in the US & more generally, recommending the use of EU services instead of those provided by American platforms.” So, same as Canadians.

In solidarity with today's ICE OUT OF MINNESOTA blackout, MinnMax is donating $1 to the Immigrant Law Center of Minnesota for every share of this Bluesky post for the next hour.

American friends, please tell, how is insulting NATO war dead and their bereaved families making your country great again? You're president is a fucking moron, and your country a disgrace. Yours, an angry Brit.👎

2026, 9 days old and it already sucks.🙄

Brand new year, same old story of Britain grinding to a halt under a couple of millimeters of snow.🤣🤣🤣

A selection of my favourite albums of 2025. In no particular order. #sprints #pulp #wolfalice #suede #saintetienne #sharonvanetten #bigthief #wetleg #jefftweedy #musicsky #albumoftheyear #nowplaying #nowspinning

Reform UK complaining that this is a politically motivated smear campaign. Too right it is, we don't want a known racist and antisemite to be Prime Minister.🙄

Wow, this is astonishing.😯

Not quite finished this, about 20 pages left, and it's already the best book I've read all year. Not just a story about one life, but a story about many lives, and the paths we travel. I've had tears in my eyes on numerous occasions. Captivating and very moving. 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 #pattismith #booksky

I picked this album up from Vinted this week for £5.70, in perfect condition too. An absolute bargain. Can't quite believe it's 36 years old, it's as fresh as newly sliced lemon. #nowspinning #nowplaying #musicsky #stoneroses

In a world so full of awful news, this story is so heartwarming.🙂

In light of Elon Musk's eye watering pay deal with Tesla, here's some equally eye watering numbers. 1 million seconds = 11.5 days; a billion seconds = 31.7 years; a trillion seconds = 31,688 years. Read that again, and think about it when you start ranting about immigrants fucking up the world.🙂

A lot of Joy Division for my Saturday afternoon entertainment. 45 years old and this music still sounds like it's from the future. There was nobody like Joy Division, there's been nobody like them since, and there never will be. A truly original band. #nowplaying #joydivision #musicsky

Has the President of the United States really responded to the No Kings protests by posting a video of himself shitting on the American people, or did that slip through a crack in the space time continuum from a bizarre dystopian alternative reality?🤔
