Keir Starmer is actually quite funny and this is a hill I will die on.

Hey @sixotf.bsky.social my 9 year old daughter just informed me her new favourite Transformer was Emirate Xaaron. Now that’s a fan.

From the very same paragraph in Orwell's essay: "England has got to be true to herself. She is not being true to herself while the refugees who have sought our shores are penned up in concentration camps, and company directors work out subtle schemes to dodge their Excess Profits Tax."

That interview with Reza Pahlavi on Kuenssberg was just fucking weird. He’s either delusional or he’s working with Israel.

Don’t know what’s funnier, Putin losing 40 bombers or Ukraine not telling the big orange bitch what they were planning.

My daughters just asked if I can get her Transformers: Target 2005. This is @chrismcfeely.bsky.social’s fault.

If your business model doesn’t work without breaking the law, then you’re not in business. You’re in organized crime.

Well having been caught up in horrendous train cancellations today (7 hours still not home) I’ve concluded Bluesky is useless for travel updates.

The unbelievable condescension we’re already seeing today towards working class people- suggesting they don’t travel to Europe or their kids might not want to go to university and study in Europe- is quite something to behold.

The U.K. fishing industry - weaponised & then betrayed & then abandoned, by Johnson, Farage & the rest of them - is better off under Starmer’s deal than it was under Johnson’s. That’s not an opinion. It’s counting. Anyone claiming otherwise is a liar.

Amidst the action tonight on #AEWDynamite Beach Break, Taz and AEW remember one of the Human Suplex Machine's greatest rivals, Sabu

A perfect example of how everything the government does is now seen through the Faragiste prism. Does it even occur to the media that a Labour government might just want to help hard-pressed communities without it being a “desperate effort” to wrest back voters from Reform etc etc?

When the Home Secretary is having to argue that the Prime Minister's speech was "completely different to Enoch Powell's", it may be time to pause and reflect on ... lots of things.

Those who are uncomfortable with this Labour immigration announcement, but think it's necessary to satisfy Reform voters, this is for you. You will not satisfy. You will never satisfy.

Sabu was a wrestler you didnt see first. You heard about him. Like you heard about the Exorcist or the Texas Chain Saw Massacre on VHS. An infamous, influential forerunner of the style that would become common place. An incredible look, a unique style, a complete one off. RIP

Listened to the @originstorypodcast.bsky.social on Musk’s Twitter takeover and it finally pushed me over the edge to delete my account.

@dorianlynskey.bsky.social what was the name of that book you mentioned in the latest Origin Stories? About the German people during the Third Reich. Sounds right up my street.

This is dreadful. Peter David wrote one of my favourite comic runs with The Atlantis Chronicles and Aquaman. What sort of country allows this to happen? I’ve chipped in, I hope others will too.
