Go Sweden! 🇸🇪

I just saw that the quick cryptic was set by Carpathian today and said 'oooh, yay' aloud. I felt myself level up on the nerd scale 🥳

French Senator Claude Malhuret: "Washington has become Nero’s court, with an incendiary emperor, submissive courtiers and a jester high on ketamine... We were at war with a dictator, we are now at war with a dictator backed by a traitor."

Inattention to native Welsh heritage sites harms our history Both native and non-native Welsh sites like standing stones and castles built by the occupying English matter to our heritage. But one is more vulnerable than the other. ✍️ @welshhistories.bsky.social bylines.cymru/arts-and-cul...

Dydd Gwŷl Dewi Hapus! We thing Trump is a cunt in Wales too! 🇺🇦🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

🚨BREAKING CROSSPOST AFTER DDOS ATTACK Donald Trump Was Recruited by the KGB Under Codename ‘Krasnov’ Claims Former Soviet Spy Chief A former senior KGB chief claims Trump was recruited by them in 1987 due to his role as a prominent US businessman www.bylinesupplement.com/p/breaking-c...

So, Farage is a spokesperson for Trump and Trump is a spokesperson for Putin. It’s, quite ironically, like a game of Russian dolls. Except instead of dolls they’re ugly treacherous cunts.

Nigel Farage is being awfully quiet about his pal's Ukraine approach. Even his followers are not really down with letting Russia rule Europe it would seem.

I don't think the Today programme on Radio 4 passed the Beschdel Test today. I'm a bit fed up of men 🙄

Get in! I'm only a founding member of Minute Cryptic!

I live in the top of a hill on Ynys Môn and I flipping LOVE the sound of a howling wind at night.

I'm sorry, but you all need to see my ridiculous little dog. Meet Pedro 🥰

Brilliant.

Oh my God, I'm 50 today! Apparently that makes me fabulous...you'd best follow me. Photo was my morning view

The more Robert Jenrick says the words 'young girls' the more angry I get. How fucking dare he pretend to care about girls to further his insidious right-wing grift! #fuming #radio4 #r4today

What a disgusting, race-baiting grifter Robert Jenrick is. Utterly shameless #r4today

Don't ever imagine that these people, baying for another child sexual abuse inquiry, have ANY interest in children who have been groomed or sexually abused. They are the SAME people who deny Shamima Begum in the SAME way those people disregarded the victims of these gangs. #childrenarechildren

Lord Bamford owes £500,000,000 to HMRC he has retired from the House of Lords and fled. He expects his debt just like Michelle Mone's £232,000,000 debt to be written off. We must recover every penny from these thieves, and toss them in jail.

I don't want to go to work 😒 Let's party a little longer

Jesus Christ! Thought I'd give a proper Guardian Cryptic a go...New Year, New Me! But no, I'm still thick! I'll be sticking with Quick, Quiptic and a little bit of Everyman for now.
