Something I saw today and thought I’d share here. Reasons to Stay is a suicide prevention project reaching people at difficult moments through anonymous letters written by volunteers. Each letter on the site was written by a real person and is delivered at random when you visit the page.

When people talk about the Overton window most of them don't realise that it's quite near Basingstoke.

Throughly enjoyed the Harry Hill Show video podscarf with Stewart Lee. Always fun to see Stew in uncontrollable laughter, and good to see there's more guests to come. Castles. youtu.be/w_Y-B_UMdrA?...

Great to see some renewed interest in Nigel Farage’s sumptuous lunches How about this one when he launched a European Revolution with Steve Bannon, who was being backed by Jeffery Epstein all the time bylinetimes.com/2025/11/19/d...

I can tell Doctor Who has been going on for a long time as January in my DW calendar features the Third Doctor, and there is no sign later of the Morbius Doctors...

A useful and grounding reminder of our (and our "leaders'") insignificance in the scale of things.

Biological male" is such a painful barb given it's strength as a slur, and also scientifically hogwash.

Good to back on the Meaden Line..

I really enjoy these pieces by @roberthutton.co.uk - very good

People like Ricky Gervais, Jimmy Carr and Graham Linehan like to think they’re brave truth tellers when hawking anti-trans shite, but I genuinely can’t think of anything braver than a 15 year old girl having the force of the US Government pushing against her specifically, and her fighting back.

Tony having a cough

I'd never got round to watching the Mawaan Rizwan sitcom Juice before tonight. When it came out something had made me worry that it might be Noel Fielding style surrealism at a time when that was the last thing I needed. Wrong. So good, with such heart, truth and realness, and NOT EXHAUSTING. :-)

Self-confidence and credulity are bad bedfellows

Have noticed on @verified.pds.mmatt.net that a lot of British politicians are being verified on BS at the moment. A good sign.

Been hoping to have a chance to get to one of these for a long time...

Top year in review. Including "it became clear that Labour’s strategy was going to be 'what if we just did Reform’s policies, but not in crayon?'”

Oh, I'd forgotten this until now. Whilst I was playing rugby as a child I saw Crackerjack host Don MacLean on the touchline. CRACKERJACK!

I nearly knocked Adam Hart-Davis (of What The Romans Did For Us fame) off his bicycle with my car door. He was unnecessarily apologetic.

Rachel Talalay is such an inspirational brilliant but humble person, and this is such a great video for Doctor Who fans (or those just interested in filmmaking). Love her.

Nik’s funeral is taking place on 30th December at 1pm GMT. For those that can’t attend, the funeral will be live-streamed. We have tried to contact as many of Nik’s friends as we could, but we may have missed some. The link is watch.obitus.com username: cuma6886 pin:962499

Pedro Pascal to play Howard Moon in the Mighty Boosh remake. (#JulianBarratt-alike #TheUnbearableWeightOfMassiveTalent movie)

I don't often get a chance to watch a movie by myself. Tonight I watched Heretic Fabulous film.. Review over.

A good list of good people

This is really sad. Robin is one of the most intelligent and caring people I know. But, just like him, he’s standing up while so many other people are bowing down.

Seeing Robin Ince saying it in person is all the more affecting. Good also to see reference to what I presume are the pro Palestine hunger strikers in Scotland, largely buried under the UK media and political carpet

It's not visiting anymore. It wants to stay.

Robin Ince is the best of people. (I've been a fan for a long time but never actually listened to a Monkey Cage despite my bestie intentions. Had still been wanting to. Such a shame the BBC has come to this)

Throughly enjoyed the rejigged Sea Devils, and loved how @benjamincook.bsky.social managed to edit in Tim Key

Missed this at the time, but this article should be in **every** paper rather than killed by one paper. Speaks volumes that it is not.

Back from the supermarket shop, where Christmas is making my mission of hiding all of the Harry Potter book front covers even more of an ordeal.

Time to jump back in - really enjoyed this on Switch 2!

I only know him through his writing and on here, but he made such a big impact. So sorry to everyone who knew him. This Comments feed attests to how much he meant to people.

Probably my favourite Doctor Who episode, and a fantastic run of three.

GeoEvitaCities!

I’ve completely had the stuffing knocked out of me by the PB trial announcement. Then this. News that Bayswater were consulted. This is why we need to grow Transparent Action. To show that the majority of parents support their kids and expose Streeting’s bias. actionnetwork.org/petitions/tr...

Any journos or other people with access to streeting Ask him why he thinks it's ok to continue asking a group who think blocking childline access, refusing rape crisis counselling, putting chilli sauce in make up and promoting DIY conversion therapy guides for their thoughts on trans healthcare.

Today is International Men’s Day. So here’s to refugee men fleeing abuse, trans men denied healthcare, queer men bullied for being different, Black men racially profiled, disabled men excluded from work, and all the other men who fail at being “real men.” May we continue to cultivate our humanity.

"You can't build a future on a fault line"

The BBC, quite consciously, sets out to demean and belittle trans people. This is both morally contemptible and in breach of its Charter obligations. We've made it super easy for you to write to the BBC and tell it to stop. Please use - and share with your networks. goodlaw.social/2j5q

We don't yet have but would love to get Tyger at some point. Currently revisiting Varjak Paw with my youngest - we'll never outgrow it!

I think I need this just now :-)

"Breaking Ranks: Inside Israel's War" seems another remarkable ITV programme in this day and age. Timely, but should be everywhere.

"Basically, Musk’s AI service has been programmed to be as much of an arsehole as he is." :-)

Shitehawkeye.

I'd not realised my BlueSky moderation was hiding posters deemed as "rude" - glad the options are there but a strange one compared to the more serious categories...

An important reminder

This has made me feel worse but better at the same time

Halloween demanded a rewatch of Doctor Who The Halloween Apocalypse, the first of the Flux story, and a reminder of how good Who can look and sound, let alone draw the viewer in for the mysteries of the story arc.
