Just in case you missed it...

Reporter on BBC saying the three big issues on the doorsteps in Barnet were pot-holes, planting trees and genocide.

Race Across The World is a brilliant antidote to mean spirited xenophobia elsewhere in the public domain. Ordinary folk, travelling in foreign cultures, being met with kindness and shared humanity.

Useful on election day Don't be a half-wit and vote for Farage and his band of racist & halfwit goons. Be human. knowyourseat.co.uk

Scottish book bother-ers this is really brilliant www.amazon.co.uk/Only-Here-No...

@newlands.bsky.social Hey Tom, I just finished Only Here Only Now and thought it was an absolute belter. And now I'm telling you. Cause you deserve to hear it.

BP's profits for the first three months of the year up from $1.38bn to $3.2bn (£2.4bn) following a surge in oil prices. Up from $1.38bn to $3.2bn (£2.4bn), fuelling inflation, poverty and misery for millions. Bonanza for execs and shareholders. No UK curbs on profiteering.

I despise voice notes and refuse to listen to them

C'mon Celtic It doesn't HAVE to be exciting. I could cope with...mundane ( that was some goal from Falkirk mind you)

This Is Just To Say I have turned off the AI features that were in the update and which you were probably hoping to monetize Fuck you they were stupid so unnecessary and so annoying

The Gays of Hormuz however, are still not willing to do a deal with Donald Trump

My placard for today’s positive Maryhill Anti-racism march

Oh, yeah, that was the Obama Iran deal.

This is a community organised march, to show some kindness and solidarity. Come along and show your support. Bring Tunnocks Tea Cakes.

Celtic trying as hard as they can to concede a goal here

I see we're at the Multimillionaire-who's-hobby-is-racing-yachts-at-Cowes stuffed-some-shitey-working-class-food-into-his-gob for the cameras stage of the election Well done everyone involved in this.

Let me condemn these attacks in the weakest possible terms.... www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

Mass stupidity is something democracy must wrangle with sooner rather than later if it is to survive. I’d suggest raising the school leaving age to 18 for a start, and the teaching of basic philosophy and media literacy from age 11 up. That and the complete destruction of tech oligarchs of course.

Regularly on Today Programme they'll discuss the need to expand Heathrow & up the number of flights....without the slightest qualm or mention of the climate catastrophe. There's no point in David Attenborough pleading 'we must all do our bit' if the BBC's flagship news can't be arsed mentioning it

This survey was taken in Trumps first term. Basically, lots of ignorant prejudiced Republicans are pro-bombing of anywhere where there might be brown skinned people with exotic sounding names.

Maryhill Against Racism - next Sunday ( 12th) - do come along !

Watching Shia LaBeouf describe himself as a “traditional Catholic” (converted three years ago via the TLM), and this remains undefeated:

yeah, you'd definitely want to feel that was fixed before lighting the fuse.

Arsehole on BBC PM - Stuart Rose - argues that government needs to help big business not the poor because “nobody died of starvation yesterday” ( no pushback from presenter)

I mean…. “Machine, tell me how to speak to my family” ? This is the advert?

So… Basically… A pile of shite that was a convenient anti-Iranian headline across the media a few days ago?

Seems a real missed opportunity for the Greens not to have used Iran to reframe the energy transition as a national security and cost of living issue, instead of just an 'environmental' one. Big chance to put that front and centre.

‘In 2022, I published an essay endorsing Donald Trump for the 2024 Republican nomination.’ These people really are a joke

Trump has just held up a model of a B2 fighter plane and declared these are dropping the biggest bombs on Iran you’ll ever see. B2s are reportedly taking off from British bases. Keir Starmer must answer my simple question. Are these planes attacking Iran?

The ‘we need to rethink our approach to the North Sea’ is dumbest conversation in UK politics Expensive to extract- much of it now owned by small producers - that goes into global market Good to jobs in Aberdeen, not much else *mad* we’re not talking about energy security + renewables every day

Oh wow our campaign to Take Big Money Out of British Politics with @38degrees.bsky.social now has more than 100,000 signatures! Can we make it even more to show government this needs to happen? Do sign and share the petition if you haven't already! thanks 😊 you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/ta...

Celtic beating themselves.

Wonder if Askou sees today as his final job interview ? #Celtic

This is great fun

Iran’s people were facing a horrible shortage of water before the war began. If we are destroying desalination plants and setting fire to Teheran we are committing unfathomable crimes.

I don’t think Bluesky is much fun. I am pro Bluesky but get massive FOMO & sneak back to twitz where I read but try not to post. It’s annoying that this site isn’t just better fun

Trump's decision to bomb Iran is now the greatest windfall to the Russian war effort on record. If it continues, it might save the Russian war economy.

Main feeling after yesterdays game is....can't really take any pride in it. Terrible game. Vandalism in the Broomloan was out of order. Need to be better on all fronts. #Hailhail @20minutetimspod.bsky.social
