Algorithm-driven hypocrisy *insert Grandpa Simpson shouting at clouds gif*

Openly racist comment about a local community arts event “does not contradict our community standards” according to Facebook 🫤

Get on it pop kids 🎶

Was just about to post the same. Unexpected blub

As the child of two teachers, I grew up with an acute awareness of how politicians would blame people like my parents for anything that they could not be fucking bothered lifting a finger to tackle themselves. Lazy bastards who won't do their own job lecturing others on how to do theirs.

"It's made of people, our Maurice!"

That’s a cracking novel, one of her finest. I have one of those green viragos. Good idea to republish, maybe @dauntbookspub.bsky.social might add it to their Comyns portfolio?

Last minute offer.
Car has just gone kaput heading to Manchester to see the Beta Band at the Apollo.Back home safely now.

Ah, OK great! 😊

I think I might watch it again soon….

Yeah, I’d agree with that. Looking forward to seeing the new one, with a slight DiCaprio concern 😕

I watched Licorice Pizza today and loved it. The running, the costumes, the music, the running, the performances, the water beds, the running. It’s full of love but complex, not sentimental. Ace.

Ooh looking forward to this. I enjoyed Trust Exercise very much.
