RIP to a real one

So the Telegraph is taking this well

country has gone to the dogs x

you tell them babe

god that’s embarrassing

Wait, Britain has politics as well?? Christ, when will it end

actually a really good bit if you think about it

definitely, and i don’t think the apathy that exists for the SNP amongst its likely voter is enough of a driving force for some voters to flip green (plus the added layer of the list system which can deter people)

as a Glaswegian I was legitimately surprised to discover there are no religious considerations at all as to whether someone is a supporter of Manchester United or Manchester City

woke is back baby

ANNOYED GYNOID ... @annoyedgynoid.bsky.... 23h "just don't use Al" is a luxury position. when people moralize choices made under scarcity, they're pretending the menu is the same for everyone. it fucking isn't.

we’re not doing this under Woke 2 sorry not sorry

we're getting all the downsides of cyberpunk (social alienation, ruthless hyper capitalism, digital mass surveillance state) but none of the promised upsides (cheap street food, cool jackets, super drugs that make you really fast and strong before they kill you)

you know it’s long 2016 when celebs are dropping absolute clangers via the notes app

obsessed with harriet acting like a martyr. “do not let this sacrifice be in vein” girl please

i keep getting the mobile network one

i’ll be 30 soonish and if you had told me ten years ago that the last year and a bit of my twenties would be spent parenting myself because apps have made us all ipads babies i would have screamed

decline in quotes cause i wasn’t very smart to begin with yada yada

i have deleted tiktok as one of my new years resolutions. i am not placing blame on it entirely but i will say it short form content has undoubtedly made me (feel) stupider, particularly over the past year. what is more angering though is how aware i am of this “decline”

nothing will ever come close to the high as being on twitter dot com the day prince phillip or the queen died but i think tonight’s episode would have landed around number 15 of Good Days To Be Online

need really twitter back i am gaaaaaged by this latest traitor episode
