What the UK thinks of Elon Musk, he's a massive prick basically.

What the cunning folk of Hookland do on #NewYearsEve - year-walking. May your troubles not cross the threshold of midnight. May blessings walk down the lane to meet you in the coming year.

Important thread.

An #author builds an audience one reader at a time. Reviews are our"word of mouth", the apparatus that opens the door to other readers. It's like singing an opera in an airport...most will walk past, but the louder you sing, the more people stop to listen...

I read five fics while I was travelling and this was the next one! A Big Bang fic by @candiedsilkmoth.bsky.social in which Stede goes on the journey of a lifetime aboard the Orient Express, and meets pianist Ed while he's at it. #OFMDFicRec #ClaireRecs 1/3

We MUST keep vaccines. have you written your Senator to let them know?

I wrote this about Chris McCausland last week. Tonight’s the final and we have literally bought a new television for it - like people did for the coronation in 1953. #Strictly

Just watched the #strictly final. Thrilled for Chris and Dianne. I may have screamed so loud that I scared the seagulls loitering on the roof...😁

I love this town.

In the woman’s restroom near the protests many women have left snacks, masks, and sanitary pads to help others. Protests in Korea since the authoritarian era have been very communal events. Some who cannot make it to the protest have been paying for coffee and hot packs for hands

Nick Fuentes is due in court tomorrow. It would be nice of him to get jail time, he can see how his slogan "Your body, my choice" works there.

Not a single reader I know has ever wanted to buy a product like this.

Also see Landlords and CEO's.

What a bunch of greedy multimillionaire, tax dodging, whiny little pricks.

In 1968 Finland banned for profit education, the few private schools that exist in Finland have to reinvest any profit they make or pay it back to parents. It has been in the Top 3 in education for the last 20 years. There should be no profit in education or healthcare.

If you can't choose not to buy it, Power, Water, Healthcare, Housing. It shouldn't be legal to sell it for profit.

I will point out that no one elected Elon Musk, and he hasn't been given a job by the Government. So he shouldn't have a single thing to do with anything that goes on.

On Day 8 of his Advent Adventures Wren discovers that, where glitter is concerned, you can have too much of a good thing. wherekizzialives.com/2024/12/08/d...

“I have too many books” -judgemental -boring -implies impulse-control issues “The books... they have me.” - mysterious - occult - implies you are at the mercy of a library of books that have gained sentience and are holding you hostage #readingcommunity

In case you didn't know, librarians are educated professionals with a master's degree and don't just willy nilly buy any old books for their libraries.

I met an extremely old lady who told me my tomato plants would grow more successfully if I tickled their leaves with a rabbit’s foot. I did give it a go but the rabbit, who I’d barely met at the time, asked me to stop.

Benjamin Zephaniah "If you didn't have troublemakers, most women wouldn't have the right to vote, a black person wouldn't be talking to a white person and I'd be back in slavery.

Cost for a heart transplant in the USA. When private Healthcare comes to the UK, are you going bankrupt? Or are you dying?

This Christmas Santa Claus needs to visit all the billionaires houses and take all their stuff and deliver it to all the people they have stolen it from.
