Is there a single social media platform that has a decent algorithm? Old skool Twitter gave much better visibility than currently exists anywhere, what is preventing a fairer/more engaging algorithm?

Whitechapel in London has become a hotbed of eastern influence, where foreign culture and language has invaded the local populace, だってばよ！ #whitechapel #naruto #londonlife

A mid-life crisis is the early stages of what becomes mid-life clarity. We're only here for a while in this unfair equilibrium, so maybe be nice and make it better.

Building the robot piece by piece, but will need an old CRT TV to make it work!

Another fun weekend at Up The Creek Comedy Club, this is me looking effortlessly cool, masking the exhaustive suffering that life otherwise hands out without restraint. Gotta make joy a priority!

Got Dave Pollot art on my walls, check him out on Insta. Having worked for Midway Games and grown up playing both Mortal Kombat and Street Fighter 2, I absolutely had to have these!

Look carefully and you'll see me in one of the photos! Coming to @bbciplayer.bsky.social in early 2026! #Crookhaven www.bbc.co.uk/mediacentre/...

Another successful Stand Up for GamesAid at The Comedy Store! This was all the mere pipedream of a humble games tester and plucky open spot so many moons ago, and now the show just did its 13th year, and as always my QA brosephs came out to support!

Another joyous weekend at @thecomedystore.co.uk . And all the more memorable to share the stage for a photo with one of my heroes; the legendary Matt Welcome! Life is full of beautiful synchronicities, and you can never see them coming no matter how much you plan. But, what can you do? 😉

See me this entire weekend at @comedystoreuk.bsky.social I was a cheeky teen back in the 90s when we finally got cable and I was exposed to late night stand up on Paramount Comedy Channel and the show 'Live at The Comedy Store'.

A quick watercolour attempt at one of my most fav films of all time, if you haven't seen it, it's about profit over people during a national holiday.

TODAY! Appearing as a guest on Mary Bourke's new BBC Radio 4 show 'Who Cares?' A show about comedians who are carers ❤️ LISTEN HERE - bbc.co.uk/programmes/m...

The tide is turning, and those who've been surfing on the waves of discrimination are steadily abandoning its diminishing profits and will try to blend in with those of us who remained steadfast in the seas of solidarity. We see you...
