@mrjamesob.bsky.social did you watch channel four Trump V The Truth yesterday evening ?

@mrjamesob.bsky.social “oh I like this one” 🤣🤣. I had this tune played for entrance of the bride when I got married at Guy’s Hospital Chapel in 1991. I did my nurse training there .

@mrjamesob.bsky.social morning lovely . DAB radio “high definition “ we can hear every swallow. Not good for my misophonia

@mrjamesob.bsky.social this caller is wrong, the trustee doesn’t still own the property as a trustee , even though the beneficiary is a child under 18

Just listened to Nick Ferrari at the top of the hour 7am @mrjamesob.bsky.social this is biased nonsense “journalism “ is how people are brainwashed. Surely @lbc.co.uk has to do something about it .

I know it’s only a few , but I am really really frightened of England at the moment

I don’t understand why there are so many complaints about conditions in the UK now as compared with 4 years ago .

The racists, homophobes etc. they’re everywhere . They live amongst us. They’re our neighbours, our family. 😳

Someone said to me, “The UK will be a Muslim country in 40 years.” 📊 Current data: Muslims = ~6.5% of the UK population (2021 Census). No credible projection shows a religious takeover. Facts > fear. #FactsMatter #TruthOverFear

@mrjamesob.bsky.social not sure why the Cambridge maths graduate is unemployed. Don’t these students get courted by big firms whilst they are undergraduates?

There's no placating the Brexiters, no reasoning with them, no basic comprehension or adulthood. You can't debate papers behaving like the Sun or the Mail this morning. There's nothing to debate with. They view all trading relations with Europe as humiliation.

If you want to continue to queue at EU airports, just go in the 'all passports' queue, nothing stopping you.

Whatever the merits or otherwise of his deal(s), Starmer is at his most confident right now in the Commons. Commanding.

Coverage of idiots claiming ‘betrayal’ or ‘surrender’ isn’t just bad journalism, it’s a dereliction of our duty to explain things. I’d actually forgotten just how bad it got but here we are, straight back to treating liars & spivs like authorities of equal weight to experts & honest brokers.

@shelaghfogarty.bsky.social please correct this woman, your bladder does not drop because you have a vaginal birth. The breast don’t drop because of breast feeding .

Yes, the work can be mentally tough. But who else gets to poke their head out of their office to see what the commotion is, only to see a guy who sat crying with you a couple of months ago because he thought he would never even stand, let's alone walk again, doing this! UNBROKEN Lviv

When you have a bony bottom and a bony spine , park benches are very u comfortable

@mrjamesob.bsky.social listening to Friday. Hannah and eating disorder. Eloquent woman. Did you notice she never used the word “like”, which our speech has become annoyingly peppered with nowadays?

I will never understand how a group of bigoted women go all out to destroy the rights of a tiny, marginalised group of predominantly harmless women instead of using their centuries of built up rage to actively destroy the patriarchy and the actual men who do us real harm.

Those women outside court with their popping corks , have peed me off

Benefit 102 of 5 stone weight loss: being able to fit everything for a week holiday, in a cabin size bag.

Very useful framing by @brianklaas.bsky.social of two kinds of “knowingness:” “Type 1: People who think they know but they don’t; and Type 2: People who don’t want to know. Type 1 Knowingness can be cured. When someone also has Type 2, it’s much more stubborn.” www.forkingpaths.co/p/knowingnes...

Losing weight is losing weight . It looks the same no matter if you use an injection or bariatric surgery or don’t .

@mrjamesob.bsky.social can you find me the source of the statistics you quoted about how much of benefit is claimed fraudulently

I’ve started a trend . Sitting alone on a stairwell at a gig. Now I have three new Dutch friends .

Friends in the UK often ask me what it's like to raise kids in Germany. My answer is always the same: The key to German parenting isn't fostering independence, or teaching rules, it's the ability to hold Bratwurst Brötchen & Maß in one hand, while holding the baby in the other.

Another mad element of that press conference is that Trump & Vance were ordering Zelensky to thank them personally for aid that Joe Biden had provided. All while insulting Biden & ignoring Zelensky’s frequent previous expressions of gratitude.

Zelenskyy has 'fallen into a trap’ set up by Trump, argues Matt Frei.

They are arguing, endlessly, that illegally inciting acts of terror online is ‘free speech’ while silencing dissent, targeting journalists & telling an invaded ally what he is & is not allowed to say during a live television broadcast are all fine.

I’m wondering if at the next meeting , Trump and Vance could speak to Velenskyy in Ukrainian

For two men who have professed such hostility towards taking the knee, they are surprisingly happy to do it for Putin, in the Oval Office, in full view of the world’s media.

How reassuring it would be right now for the UK to be a member of some kind of supranational political and economic union…

He is not just appeasing Putin, he is aligned with him. And every single client journalist, political shill & public/online cheerleader on both sides of the Atlantic is too. Against Zelensky. Against Ukraine. Against freedom. Against the most basic tenets of decency.

Morning @mrjamesob.bsky.social Here's an interesting view of the German elections from the marvelous Henning Wehn posted earlier on the hell-site 🤨

Happy Sunday from Berlin

I’m in a synthesizer museum in a back street in Berlin. It’s mike being in that episodes of Friends where Ross is playing in the Monica’s sitting room .

When I was in Manhattan, I noticed no women had short hair. Today I am in Berlin for the umpteenth time and I notice that women don’t wear skirts.

We could most probably eradicate the #measles by #vaccination once and for all. Alternatively, we can stop vaccinating and wait until they become and endemic around the world and kill people, in particular #children, again. There were 2.6 million measles deaths in 1980. #MedSky 🧪 #PoliSky

Shit the bed, I just took a two minute look at X.

I am that age when I call H&M , “Hennes”

It’s always interesting when the non vegan wants for try your meal but can’t reciprocate.

New head shots for my business thanks to Annie Armitage Photography

So happy for @mrjamesob.bsky.social to be back today, I think a little bit of wee just came out

A breach of international law, a breach of the refugee convention & latest evidence Keir Starmer’s government has adopted a hardline “hostile environment” stance on asylum to fight off a poll surge by Nigel Farage’s Reform UK. Labour need to be better than this www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

But please please listen to your phone or take calls through headphones when you’re on public transport. It plays havoc with those with sensory perception issues and those wearing hearing aids
