So 16 years after I left Harrogate I have finally returned to my little flat. A lot has changed in 16 years, especially with me, but I'm excited to be back. Looking forward to seeing more of my family and friends now.

Don't ask lol Small operation today 😬

Spring in Greece ffs

This is a bit weird but I just found some burnt pages from The Bible in my garden. Bit ominous tbh lol

And now JD Vance tab doesn't work lol

Fancy that. The Greenland trending tab on Twitter has stopped working. Hmmm I also tried to post on a clip of JD Vances speech and that also failed to load to make comments., That twat is censoring his website in realtime.

Here is the full text of Rachel Cohen’s firm-wide email:

So fucking true! 😡

A very interesting read

A lot of the details in this NY Times story are previously reported but this part - this part! - is new. It's either wild freelancing from an unconfirmed nominee; a vicious negotiating squeeze; or Canada is in severe peril with the threat coming from Washington. www.nytimes.com/2025/03/07/w...

"He doesn't wear a suit." "He is a corrupt individual who only cares about money." "He is a liar." "He doesn't care about Ukraine and his people." - Alex Bond A photo taken before the war and another afterwards. Speaks volumes! No further explanation necessary! @alexbondodua.bsky.social

Vance skies in Jeans! Love it! 😂

As Donald Trump turns the United States into one of the closest allies Russia has worldwide, it's worth revisiting the news item below, which came out immediately after Trump won a surprising victory in November:

Jesus Christ! 😭

I actually emailed the Ukrainian embassy yesterday to offer my support and admiration for Zelensky yesterday after that disgusting ambush. It bounced back saying the inbox was receiving too much traffic. I like to think the whole country emailed them yesterday. Unbelievable scenes 🙁

Cometh the hour cometh the man

What a shameful display we saw in the White House yesterday.

RIP to one of the all time greats. What a sad end.

I'm riding the bus in London (don't ask). I think i must have been the only person to have said thank you (well cheers) today because he gave me the most hearty You're Welcome when I did lol #northernerinlondon

Thought I'd post this here as I inadvertently explained my adult life quite well in case anyone was remotely interested lol

A movie you've watched more than 6 times, using only GIFs

We know in our bones. That's it perfectly :(

This country has seen some bad moments in the 61 years, 5 months, 16 days I’ve been on this Earth. But it has never, ever before come close to the supertoxic level of stupidity, mendacity, narcissism, nihilism, and moral apathy that threaten to destroy it today.

On Friday night, HHS ordered CDC to take down all flu vaccine campaign materials from its website. Materials are starting to come down. For example, a campaign explaining that flu shot can reduce flu severity from "wild to mild" is now offline. Left image is from Friday, right is now Meanwhile...

This is the clearest photo ever taken of Venus. 🔭 🧪

Good one

They finally got the main homeowner on Amandaland to do a piece for the Daily Mail. I'll take it! haha Now if anyone fancies offering me a job, I'm very charming and persuasive 😉

Kyle Clark‬ ‪@kylec.bsky.social‬ "As a journalist who covers extremism at the local level, I think it’s a mistake to view Trump’s Napoleonic statement as solely about presidential power....it's a wink and a nod for any extremist to act outside the law to “save” the country as they see fit

An excerpt from my book HIDING IN PLAIN SIGHT (2020) summing up the current situation:

EXCLUSIVE 🪼 Meet Peylak, chieftain of the Wind Traders in #Avatar: Fire And Ash, played by David Thewlis. “He’s absolutely stunning in the movie,” costume designer Deborah L. Scott tells Empire. READ MORE: www.empireonline.com/movies/news/...

Hey bsky.app/profile/did:... you've got it wrong about Viz. It's a straight up British comedy institution. It's purile bad taste as an art form. Come on they have a character called Nobby Styles who has terrible piles! And the entire article is him getting his piles hit in unusual ways. High art lol

They've written an actual article on the locations in Amandaland lol. Pretty cool. Not had that before 😊 www.dailymail.co.uk/femail/artic...

There is no spoon!

Then have you seen The Fitzroy? Black comedy set on a submarine turned hotel after the apocalypse? Great fun :) Full disclosure, me and my friends made this, and yes it's a real feature film lol www.imdb.com/title/tt2289...

Fellow NSA - National Security Agency veterans. Look at what’s happened at the National Cryptologic Museum. They covered up with brown paper the photos of Women in American Cryptology. All in response to President Trump’s anti-diversity executive order.

His best speech ever. What a time to find himself.

I haven’t lived through the collapse of a civilisation before I study history so I have read the guidebooks, but they don’t quite capture the experience of being there

He's considered a fringe nutjob in the UK mainly. Got chucked off the small right wing TV channel he got a gig on. Hangs around with another failure Lawrence Fox. Grifters swinging full nazi for a paycheque.

Top order tweet 😎

How I arrived on Bluesky

Sweet Jesus it's straight out of 1984 🙁

This sounds like a nice waste of time today :) 1 like=1 thing I love

I'm re-reading Andy Weir (The Martians) latest book Project Hail Mary. Honestly this is one of the best sci-fi books I have ever read. Engrossing and clever. Due to be a film soon starring Ryan Gosling. It's basically a procedural. Who dunnit or how dunnit. Recommended!

People keep telling me i'm taking this too seriously. But I keep telling them, i've read history 😔

This looks really good.

Leopards. Face. Didn't think etc

Wowzers. 10/10 quote. No notes.

The new John Waynes. But none of them are A listers anymore. But they might terrorise the town. It'll be interesting to see if the studios buckle. But bums on seats has always been Hollywoods biggest currency. Interesting times

Stunning
