@sandybatchelor.bsky.social watching SAS Rogue Heroes. A well kent pus doing good things.

The nature of social media like X and this place is to voice opinion and engage with others...opinion ultimately ends in disagreement so give it time on both when there is no obvious opposing view of any size both left and right will start to fight amongst themselves. And neither will be dignified.

X v Blue-sky...... further proof we're losing the ability to debate and we're creating a generation that aren't interested in anything other than feeling they are right and surrounding themselves with only people who share the same views. Nature of society today it seems.......feels like a shame.

Bit worried this place becomes the other side of the X coin where it is too closely aligned with a political view. Twitter in its day was a place open to fair debate. It's OK to argue but people have to learn how to deal with people disagreeing with them. It can't just be disagree = block.

The best album The Jam did in my opinion. Some really brilliant songs.

Thought it was a terrific show Davie, hope she enjoyed it.

Watching Scotland has made me think.....how strict are the swearing rules on here??

The politics was an interesting one. Twitter used to allow a good debate but it became to polarised into being either right and wrong and not all politics is that simple. I hpe this place doesn't become a big echo chamber to counter what X is heading toward.

It certainly went to shit. Used to be that you could have a decent exchange of views on it but now it's either agree or you're wrong. Hopefully this place will be better and not just 1 perspective.

Not quite the same but someone pointed out that Trump Jnr sounded like Kermit the frog and now I can't unhear it.

Phoney Stark.....👏

I'm trying this because it was like scrolling down an F1 drivers overall.

Blue Sky so far is a bit like when you arrive at a wedding. Exchange of pleasantries, some old friends and all very civil..... the real test comes later at the reception when we've all had a drink.

I thought that when my kid asked me not about the sinking of the Mary Rose but when they raised it......which I watched on Blue Peter.

Seen a lot of posts on the other place saying abdys leaving because the Mahogany Mussolini won the US election....is that true?

The Jam
Inspiral Carpets
The Specials
Echobelly
The Selecter
Small Faces
Happy Mondays
Merton Parkas
Secret Affair..recent thing.
Madness

Reassuring use of a coaster....but on the furniture. I'm really not sure how I feel about this.

Willo Flood wouldn't have lasted 10 seconds in this format...... aff.

I give up...

There goes the neighbourhood...

Nah. I'll keep my ticket to the freak show for a while yet.

Didn't mind a lot of the politics on X but the adds and other spam was just over the top......but if anyone is interested.

No Temu adds so far....

Watching Paris had Fallen..... its ok...not great....but ok.
