@bbcradio3bot.bsky.social - could you please improve or preferably bin the clearly imported ‘news’ at 1pm and 6pm? The reason why is simply because it’s usually complete bullshit.

I swear, there are so many bots in my DMs saying 'Hello', it's like the opening lyrics of Smells Like Teen Spirit in there.

Signed.

Hysteria surrounding Wales Rugby Team. All sports teams have historical good/bad periods. Get a grip. Worry about Welsh universities, the NHS, and encroaching fascism in Wales, fuelled by disinformation instead.

Cardiff seemingly surplus to requirements, whilst UK Government pumps money into already asset-rich Oxbridge. We need the Senedd to act. Or what’s the point of devolution.

“They’re eating the frogs. They’re eating the snails.”

Joy Division are a terrible band and John Coltrane is overrated* *just testing if this is an echo chamber or not.

I really like listening to ‘Jazz Record Requests’ on @bbcradio3bot.bsky.social in the bath with a glass of cold Sauvignon Blanc. #sad #bourgeois
