February in the UK is my least favourite month… it’s dark and sometimes unbearably cold after an already few cold months. But there’s a big positive… the 6 week gym heroes return to their caves and let me crack on 💪 #gymlife

Casual observation on the tariffs imposed by Trump… he should have just picked one of the trading partners to go against. A bully typically picks out one classmate at a time to pick out, knowing they can’t go against the whole crowd at the same time but sending a message. They’ve lost their edge.

I’m starting to question if we’re watching the real-time crumbling of America’s global dominance? He’s playing a dangerous game of forcing allies to show themselves to be weak. How many countries are just going to tell the USA to shove Trump’s tariffs up his arse?

Did I miss something - did none of the players not notice that Charlotte lost her Welsh accent?? #thetraitors

Just watched Civil War. 10 years ago I’d have said it was a ridiculous work of fiction that would never happen. Now… I’m not so sure

What I find fascinating on #thetraitors is how quickly people turn on each other. There’s also such a lack of empathy: “it’s defo such and such” for such innocuous actions, but when the tables are turned they start crying “why me?” It shows some of the worst of humanity & makes for compelling tv 🤷‍♂️

It’s crazy how things can go so nicely in #ecommerce and then bam! Sales just drop off. The reasoning? No major changes in overnight stock levels, pricing or ad changes… demand just isn’t there like it was yesterday

Tired of all the negativity on the other platforms… I’ve purged my Twitter list and now just following accounts until they migrate over here. Also sacking off Threads, just when it felt like there was enough content for it to start getting good. But then, it’s run by Zuck 🤷‍♂️
