Whenever I see the word 'vibing' I try the sentence with the full 'vibrating' to see if it still works.

In the org that I work for, I think to myself, if the external regulators were to ask why or how a particular decision was made they're not gonna be happy if you just open up a laptop and say "ask Copilot"

Can I just say something controversial?
It's NOT perfectly legitimate to have concerns about immigration.

Jim Ratcliffe loves the UK so much, he changed his tax residency to Monaco to save Β£4billion.

Is there a way for the rest of the world to sue Donald Trump for trashing the planet? What's next, deliberately adding CFCs back into deodorant spray? Mandatory smoking lessons for children?

Saw them in York at the weekend. My wife's a super fan and I was thinking I'd just get a bit of a nostalgia kick but they were in fact amazeballs.

Turn off reposts is a big one for me. I'm more of a lurker and a follower than a poster, but there are some people that have a lot of interesting stuff to say themselves but are also serial reposters, and the timeline sometimes has several of their reposts in a row which ends up in me unfollowing

That post just needed a "THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER" to finish it off.

Or a hotel that's out in the sticks? Labour have been so disappointing to me with their Reform-style policies

Must be a tough time being an Alan. Being held responsible for all the world's ills and also being the solution to every problem.

It's time to replace the pointless "Tick here to prove I'm human" box on gig tickets to something that proves you actually want to see the band yourself rather than tout to make a few πŸ’·. Like something only a true fan would know.

Facebook for me is now a record of elements of my life up to about 2015 and a means to get rid of stuff on the local free page. And yet I still see school parents on there slagging each other off or complaining about petty bollocks in full public view.

Loving the 'noughties forever' stuff on 6 music on @laurenlaverne.bsky.social 's show.
I can tell it's my era as I'm naming the song/artist within a few seconds of each song starting.

All news reports that quote Trump should use the exact sentences he says and not the 'sanewashed' ones. Including the pauses and the tangents he wanders off on.

WHY DOES NOBODY PULL HIM UP ON ANY OF THE HATEFUL BOLLOCKS HE'S SPOUTING???

(Might it be that there is a whole industry built around amplifying the hate, racism, misogyny and getting paid for it?)
