This is amazing. I laughed out loud www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle...

Wait Billy Bragg is still doing the "what if we waved the flag, but progressively?" bit after the last couple of months? Bless

Think I'm gonna try and curate my experience on here a bit and try and make it more enjoyable than the other place. In that spirit I've just blocked a recent mutual who apparently mainly posts about Arsenal football club. The Arsenal quota is maxed out

Love when these things happen and random British people with 200 followers feel weirdly compelled to be like "but seriously, I actually condemn this kind of political violence in the strongest possible terms", who's that for exactly

The most generous reading of Mandelson's ties to Epstein is that he was there not for paedophile reasons, but because of his long history of swanning around with very rich cunts for almost certainly corrupt purposes

I always work so much faster and with so much more motivation when I have next week off. Wonder if I can turn this into a business case for me to get 26 weeks of annual leave a year

Hard to imagine there'd be any point in having a Green Party that gains the support of John Rentoul, so this feels like a big waste of everyone's time

I find it bizarre that we're forced to accept live-streamed genocide and are told that it's illegal to be opposed to it, but anyone who says the obvious about these guys is at best putting their account at risk and at worse potentially facing legal charges. and the obvious is: we need to kill them

Logged on here and the first post I see is about a sort-of ex of mine who's now a massive obsessive TERF, fucking hell. Spoke to her for a year-ish online but never actually met because she was very obviously lying about her age

Been listening to this and it's beautiful, consider this an official ropestoinfinity dot bluesky dot social Endorsement

Just presented my office swipe card to the lock on my own front door. This is gonna be a long Tuesday

Listening to an album I recorded 19 years ago and only just noticing I just panned a whole 5.5-minute song entirely to the left speaker by mistake. Can't believe I never made it as a musician and producer

When I found out that Melvins did a 36-track, 2.5-hour album of acoustic versions, I wondered how they'd rearrange their heavy distorted rock songs to suit the acoustic guitar. Turns out they didn't bother, and just played them all exactly the same way youtu.be/mhq50L8UogU?...

Hard to imagine the scale of the devastation it must be causing among all my sexy mutuals not to be able to DM me over on X, The Everything App, which they do all the time by the way. Ladies don't worry, I'm here too x

UK public voting for Israel, fuck's sake

A significant number of the pundits suddenly noticing that Labour are bad will still be telling us to vote Labour at the next election. At some point, if you want things to change, you have to make them earn your vote too

I just don't get it. I've been saying "Reform are right but vote Labour" for months now and they still keep wanting to vote for Reform!? I think this means I need to be even more clear about how Reform are right but you should to vote Labour

the labour right have always always done this and there’s only three hypotheses that explain it: 1) they’re really fuckin stupid; 2) they prefer losing to having the left win; 3) they actively want the right to win

Sun really shows how fuckin grey I'm going

Murphy, a foster cat we had for a few months. Ended up having to lock him out of any room you wanted to eat in

Having a lot of wholesome conversations with random fellas about birds lately, I fear it may be time to embrace being an unfuckable middle aged man and become a serious Bird Nerd

Just had my Jeff Buckley rudely interrupted on my Sunday morning walk by a copper asking what I'm doing walking through his crime scene. Can't do anything in this country these days

This from Brendan O'Neill really made me think 🤔

fundamentally, and what makes it so insulting when self-styled left wingers join in with battering a minority, is that when the press, billionaires, fascists, and religious conservatives all unite against a group of people it couldn't be more obvious what side you should be on

An update

Work have just launched our exciting new strategy on the use of AI, which they are keen to stress will help us do our jobs better and not replace us. Anyway they're calling it 'Project Nexus' which is hilariously evil sounding, come on lads

Only one thing for it, Labour have gotta get more racist

I just think he's neat

New Green Party advert just dropped explaining why you should vote for them. And its a cracker!

Does anyone know why approximately half the accounts I follow back on here immediately try and sell me drugs in the DMs

Listening to Homogenic a week ago I thought "I wonder if anyone's isolated Björk's 'beep beep' bits from 'Alarm Call' and made it their actual alarm", anyway it turns out of course they have. Hoping this makes getting up for work tomorrow less depressing www.reddit.com/r/bjork/s/R1...

Weird how this didn't work?

Went here, too tired to think of a funny caption though

Still find it hard to take anyone seriously when they call it 'X'. Like I know it's probably the professional thing to do but it's so...undignified

Was exciting to get my laundry out on the line in the sunshine for the first time in months. Did it dry? Fuck no! But it was nice to briefly feel like it might

Do videos work on here? Let's find out

Someone I sort of thirst-followed on Instagram has posted a Starmer/Macron fan edit on stories, and said Starmer's statesmanship has made her 'proud to British'. Difficult times for me

We need to move beyond these outdated notions of 'having a job' and 'going to work'. I shouldn't have to do these things

Woman on my neighbourhood WhatsApp group posted earlier to say she was too tired/ill to go to the shops and could someone kindly post a choc ice or Feast through her letterbox? People are using the magic of the internet in incredible ways

Post a picture of you from a different era. 1995/6, a truly hipster setup with my sick AC Milan training top, and SWOS on the Amiga

Margo, delighted to be photographed as always

Great crested grebe. Underrated

'Austerity' was the word we used in the Coalition years, but it became unpopular so we just stopped calling it that, job done 👍

Genuine thrill to pull into the office car park and see my boss' car isn't there. Log on to see an email saying she's off sick today and I'm feeling only a tiny bit guilty about how relieved I am. Think this might be confirmation that I need a new job

One thing about the office I think I'd miss if I worked from home is the sense of camararderie you get from talking to other people who also fucking hate their jobs and can't wait to get out of here

9am on a Sunday and I've already been called a misogynist on Twitter by a transphobic 'Michael Jackson Is Innocent' account. Good morning

Made the mistake of tweeting about JK Rowling and have ruined my life over there, what's going on over here

if you took the "black and white" approach since 2016 that you cannot trust any tories and they are all malevolent or incompetent you would have been correct 100% of the time which is 100% more than dunt has managed in the same time
