Nice!!

Avoided the Alex Pretti video until now but just watched the BBC version. He was pepper sprayed, pistol whipped and on the ground surrounded by the cosplay Delta Force and then (as far as I could tell) shot 8 times. Simple execution by state militia.

Hello, Carol. This is a recording. At the tone, you can leave a message to request anything you might need. We’ll do our best to provide it. Our feelings for you haven’t changed, Carol. But after everything that’s happened, we just need a little space. This *is* poetry, fight me.

@pinotevil.bsky.social saw this and, who else could it be for..

REPOST ME YOU COWARDS.

What's up with ladybirds ATM? On my kitchen door count at least 10 at any given time. Is this a remake of The Birds but less scary?

Chuckle brothers reboot looks *really* shit

Seems to me that Ed and Zack have the opportunity to do the funniest thing: merge their parties and re-brand. I humbly offer these options 1. Glib Dems 2. Dem Greens

Anyone who thinks that digital id is to reduce immigration needs to give their head a wobble. This is about control of all citizens. Once the card exists it will spread to areas and uses inconceivable now. Also bet Palantir get the contract to deliver and operate. Cha Ching!!

Lol England. This morning big coat - just now had to come inside after reading in the garden because I was burning 😁

1. IT operations and change management 2. Flight simulators 3. Recreational boating

BBC news really need to start spell checking their articles, "Illegally" really isn't spelled "Mistakenly" 1/10 must do better.

@captainfanny.co.uk any relation?

Took me a long time to do it but finally deleted my Linkedin account. I had no use for it other than stalking people I used to work with but whenever I did log in I would get angry/annoyed at all the self-centred and corporate puffery. Meta free, Twitter free and now LinkedIn free. Aaand breathe.

A tale of todays' internet in two parts: Yes I know it's free but not worth giving my data to someone else to read 1 headline. I'd actually be less annoyed if it was paywalled because then the value proposition is clear.

In today's installment of the world is fucked: my son just told me he and a mate from up north (UK) met in Amsterdam because it was cheaper for them than travelling up/down. Privatisation ftw.

Another damn immigrant doing crimes against arr kids. Unless he had legitimate concerns....

Please explain to me how this makes any sense at all.

.....but still enable Israel's war crimes by selling them arms, refusing to honour ICC arrest warrants and arresting pensioners for risking making people think they supported an organisation classified as terrorist for <check notes> actually doing vandalism. Nice one politicians.

Stood next to Noel Edmonds on an airport bus from the plane to the terminal - he looked miserable with ninja level rbf.

@katmabu.bsky.social thought you'd landed *another* film role! Kat-El ftw 😃

I rest my case

Just watched a livestream from the FlightSim Expo currently happening in Rhode Island. Fair play to Austin Meyer (founder of the X-Plane product) - he stood up and called out that many European members of the team would not be present as they did not feel safe travelling to the US. Way to go USA.

Wake up babe - new Black Mirror episode just dropped. Every citizens' DNA print taken at birth and entered into Palantir databases so US Healthcare can start constructing premium payment schedules nice and early.

@danneidle.bsky.social Stumbled across a briefing about MTD which as far as I can see hits me (non business return filer) in 2027. Immediate reaction was annoyance - partly due to quarterly returns but mainly about "approved" s/w. Immediately sounded like a grift to sell subscriptions. Thoughts?

Dear company that I bought a vanilla commodity from: FFS please stop hounding me to review how I felt about buying that widget. NOBODY cares. If it was crap I might snark on social media or write a review but aside from that, the more you chase. the less likely I am to post. Leave me alone FFS.

This does seem relevant today - National Guard taking a wiener

@soapachu.bsky.social as requested

Quite strange really - all these people asked what the UK should be spending money on - all very boring focused on jobs, food, savings, benefits. Amazed that not one person mentioned small boats, forrins or being scared to go in a bathroom in case a trans person would assault them. Whoda thunk it.

I will make toast with marmalade, then add the white from a fried egg on the top and dip into heinz ketchup. Trust me it's lovely.

I spent the half-year working on this investigation. Extraordinary influence of UPF lobby behind the scenes. 'UK government dropped health push after lobbying by ultra-processed food firms' 👇 www.theguardian.com/society/ng-i...

You are fucking shitting me.....

I feel like a Navy Seal this morning. Just placed an order on Amazon and had to negotiate the dark patterns trying to get me to subscribe/re-activate prime/pay for delivery. I wriggled my way through the jungle and made. Try not to use Amazon if I can but if I do it's on my terms.....

Is it really appropriate for the UK government to be giving Palantir contracts to process UK citizens personal data, especially health data when this is how they see themselves? <spoiler alert> FUCK NO

Beautifully crafted
