If you write it in all caps or all lower case, rather than title case, then couldn't you just be generically supporting action on Palestine of some kind, rather than a specific organisation called Palestine Action

I assume "choking cheese" is a #haycorn rather than a euphemism but honestly who knows any more

If life has taught me one thing, it's that Hold Me Close by David Essex is the most persistent bastard of an earworm ever made. youtu.be/0kXPNyTWA0U?...

Sure, the state visit from the American dictator is awful, but in having to spend time with him at least the royals are earning their living for once

Still can't believe I'm the only #6music listener in the world who wears indie band T-shirts more than one day a year

This Sunday on BBC Radio 5Live you can hear me talking @colinmurray1.bsky.social and Pat Nevin through the songs of Grimsby Town on this week's Great Football Songbook 🎵⚽🐟🐟🐟 Which tunes make the cut? The show airs from 10am: www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m... #gtfc #clapclapfish

We all need to be having these conversations.

When your tiny neighbourhood bookshop has a collection from your neighbourhood poet who you met on a picket line in a blizzard, you buy a copy.

Look, I'm not saying you should buy my collection from @saltpublishing.com just because my work has been praised by the poet laureate, but I'm not *not* saying that either www.saltpublishing.com/products/the...

Could someone please check in on modern football coverage and make sure it's ok

The bit of pavement in Birstall where Jo Cox was killed, near the library. I take a photograph, of nothing, to remind me of nothing, and how her name sails clear of it how her speech is written on a history and the killer’s name forgotten soon as said. Peter Riley

Yes, yes of course I will, I'm very much in the habit of popping along to events hosted by organisations that want me and my friends wiped off the face of the Earth

Afterwards we even had some chips and a quick walk on the beach. A little midweek miracle. Thanks again @maryearnshaw.bsky.social for inviting us and @cwjoneschris.bsky.social for driving 💖

Our @petegreensolo.com has gone all giddy about #GTFC beating Man U and dashed off a new solo single in response ⬇️ Check it out ⬇️

Just completed the PRS survey on AI-generated music

My new #GTFC -inspired single Molten Plastic is now up on Spotify! 🐟🐟🐟 If you stream it 30,238,015 times I'll earn enough for a bag of chips If you stream it 59,411,220 times I'll earn enough for a bag of chips in London open.spotify.com/album/2mnwYJ...

So after #GTFC knocked Manchester United out of the League Cup last Wednesday I wrote a song. Today I'm releasing it. It's called Molten Plastic. Have a look eh? www.youtube.com/shorts/dKFgt...

Another big crowd at #GTFC today. You can always spot the noobs at half time - they're the ones who press the hot water tap in the loo and expect hot water to come out.

And Pete will be with us in Southport next week at the next Poets' Corner evening at Mecycle in Ainsdale. Fully booked but never too late to join the waiting list! www.ticketsource.co.uk/whats-on/sou...

"Pat, why do you carry that ridiculous 600mm lens on long hikes?" Buddy, I can see mountains reflected in the eyes of a trailside pika.

Love it when #GTFC get some exposure for our town #cheetrophes

Can't believe people still listen to my Phil Jevons song 😁

Once all the players and the keepers have taken penalties the order should be: - Managers - Mascots - Random fans

Decent outcome for the fishing village there. #gtfc

I got the complaint in the horrific OpenAI self harm case the the NY Times reported today This is way way worse even than the NYT article makes it out to be OpenAI absolutely deserves to be run out of business

Can't believe I used to buy into that tired old cliche about Manchester United fans all being from Singapore. It's so unfair I've just had a look on Xitter for the #GTFC buzz and it turns out they're actually all from Lagos

Sigue Sigue Sputnik were touted as the future, and look how that turned out

When someone at your work says "AI is coming" or "AI is the future", ask them why they're saying that. Show how flimsy the foundations are. Be a nuisance about it. I'm going to be using the research cited in this excellent piece to advocate against AI in my workplace and I urge you to do the same

Ooooh yes 😍

Remember that time we were all asked if we wanted our economies,societal priorities and individual life outcomes determined by a small clique of borderline sociopaths running algorithms to conditionally autotrade trillions of shares on obscure hypothetical circumstances? No, me neither

I'm supposed to be very excited about this but these circus-comes-to-town occasions just seem to fill me with weariness these days I *am* very excited about going to see #GTFC v Newport County this Saturday and @hallamfc1860.bsky.social v Bradford Park Avenue next Tuesday Don't @ me

It would be unfair to call me lazy: the correct term is 'selectively active'
