The BBC might be pushing people to check their premium bonds but NSandIs website is dogshit and I can't log in, having tried using four different browsers.

Fuckin sharpie the code next to the keypad

When it comes to students, anti war demonstrators and supporters of Palestine the police have no trouble in shutting down legitimate protest. Yet when racists demand the closure of a hotel housing some of the globe's most vulnerable they are helpless to end the protest.

Electric trains are magic

Ok, train journey nearly over, regular not posting service to recommemce shortly

Udm14.com is Google without the ai overview, and it's much better

The answer, as we discovered during Covid, is to Just House People. Yet this is unsustainable in the long term because we must instead sustain the "market" and all those parasites who benefit from artifical scarcity.

Jesus the consent manufacture on this makes me so sick

Racist, transphobic and homophobic. This woman has no business being an NHS nurse whatsoever.

Whew finally on the nice new TfW train after a lovely afternoon in Merthyr. Back to civilisation!

I haven't felt much like posting, the relentless consent manufacture is really getting to me: on whether Gazans are starving, on public support (or lack thereof) for the doctors strike, on the "protests" in Epping and whether the people there have legitimate concerns. I just don't want to engage.

I'm guessing we're not looking to the UK to see how this works in practise then

It is because you are not the hollow husk of a person required to fill seats in a Starmer Labour cabinet

Oooh gonna check this out on the way home, sounds great

It's amazing how people take differently to different things. I've never shroomed and my lsd trip got a bit lost in the mdma and whole festival experience (I was at Boomtown). I'd give 2cb another go though.

I did it once with some mates while at uni and had a great time, I felt all warm and fuzzy and we giggled for ages. Would do again.

This is why I still think the Greens are bicycle Tories

Text from my son : "I'm not going to the funeral daddy"

Another text from my son on another phone "I'm not going to the funeral"

Quite fancying Will Smith with Nike Rogers and Chic next month, hope some tickets for that come up. Hopefully the boy will come too, he didn't fancy funeral for a friend but maybe he thinks I am going to a funeral

The Blackout aren't really my thing but the home crowd clearly loves them and they pay it back in spades, hard not to enjoy what I just saw

Well Punk Rock Factory were nothing if not fun, would watch their mash of punk rock covers again.

At Funeral for a Friend at Cardiff Castle, again on complimentary tickets thanks to Concerts for Carers. I'm very skint but could not resist the lure of the pint after the long ass walk here. It's gonna be the only one! Thry do let you bring in water, thank tha lawd

Ah lol not just me!

@lgbtfdn.bsky.social think you can engage with this

It's amazing that these orgs are so desperate at appear to have influence that they can't see that they are being used.

My father in law said "the problem with votes for under 18s is thet get all their news from social media". I replied "the problem with votes for the over 60s is that they get all their news from the print media, and it poisons your brain". Needless to say there was not a meeting of minds.
