Do you ever see one of the most popular accounts on here and just find them so incredibly irritating you wonder how anyone is following them? I don't follow the one I've just seen but they're constantly on my Discover timeline and I've had to mute the account.

Great screening of our film Iron & Steam at Shildon Railway Institute today. Packed house and we even sold out of DVDs! Must order more. Very grateful to everyone who supports our work.

Got our little shop out today for the first time in a while and I found 9 Transporter zines in our stock box! If I don't sell them today (unlikely) I'll put the rest online to buy again 😋

I'm being besieged by these AI profile pic new accounts this morning. I've blocked about 15?! They just keep using the same pic and name and all have similar first posts. 😩 I've largely managed to avoid this until now.

If you post or repost gAI imagery, I will unfollow you. It is anti-human anti-environment and pro-oligarchy. We need to do far better.

Stunning WW1 uniform of a Sister of the Territorial Force Nursing Service. Two hoops of red on the cuffs for a Sister. Small 'T' badges in the corner of the tippets and the tippet medal differentiate it from the QAIMNS uniform (as seen in my header photo!) #HistNursing
