After 35 years of watching HIGNFY and watching Paul Merton joking about how old Ian is, it turns out that he’s three years older 😊

Ofcom, stop GB News broadcasting hate *CW: Homophobia, hate speech GB News is no stranger to spouting hatred and toxic lies. They take pride in it, and pretend the rules don’t matter. But they do. And they must be enforced. On 22 January,...

On 22 January, GB News presenter Josh Howie repeated a homophobic slur linking the LGBTQ+ community to paedophilia. This is offensive, wrong and unlawful. Join me and @GoodLawProject to file a complaint to Ofcom: action.goodlawproject.org/ofcom-stop-g...

If you’re going to the Leicester comedy festival, go see Friz, his shows are always great.

I saw her a few years ago. It was brilliant.

If you can’t be a role model, be a warning to others.

You seem surprised 😀

Poor Nigel Farage – he can’t be seen to support Tommy Robinson, but he doesn't want to offend all his supporters, who make up the important ‘deluded racist sack-of-shit’ demographic.

It’s definitely Christmas now, I’ve opened the Baileys.

AutisticOnTour is an innovative channel, with real insights about tourist locations and their impact on autistic folks. Go try it if that’s you, or just because the places are interesting.

This was doubly useful because, having put the washing on, I then forgot to get it out and notifications reminded me again 😀

Oh crap. I’ve just remembered what I was supposed to do this morning…

I am not an American so only have second-hand knowledge.
Does it even go under the eyes of an actual doctor, or is it some company peon or even an AI these days?

If you ask Siri if she’s smarter with Apple Intelligence, she doesn’t understand. I’ll take that as a no 😀

The only downside of BlueSky is the amount of scam accounts. ‘Julie Leach’ seems to be relentlessly making new accounts.

12 hours left! Go buy my WHOLE discography for £11. Three and a half hours worth of parody songs on a piano, and I get all the revenue. You will genuinely love it. #bandcampfriday

Of course he is. He doesn’t give a hoot for anyone without an excess of money, despite being a complete failure at business. Who else could go bankrupt running casinos?

I roasted garlic for the first time today. I didn’t have olive oil, but vegetable oil worked ok. Then, I put it on my pizza, gorgeous!

I bought Friiz's albums last Christmas, and they're all great.

It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas… I’m on my second Stollen of the year.

Instagram for me, but I'm in the over-50 demographic. The kids seem to like Snapchat. OK, Boomer 😀

Dammit! Xcrement, which didn't I think of that?

I remember Turbo Pascal 2.0 on CP/M.

It will in future be ‘the other place’ for me too. I may return a single time to download my data, but meh, I don’t think I ever said anything worth keeping anyway.

Yes, I’ve been followed by a number of these too. It seems to be a problem on BlueSky. I had the occasional one on the other place, but not like here.

Buy his albums. A guy’s gotta eat.

If I can’t be a role model, I’ll settle for being a hideous warning to others

Hmm, I’ve just been followed by @sirtan.bsky.social. Life may be trying to tell me something.

Been here less than 12 hours and only seen positivity. Also got a dozen or so followers. The only reason to ever load that other place now is to maybe download my data.
