Anyone catch a glimpse of these sachets in packaging and wonder who is using extra small condoms? 😀

For simple TV featuring some very special people I can highly recomend #ExtraordinaryPortraits. Beautiful souls captured by seriously talented artists. Might even have to visit Bradford to see them all!

Siberian goose chicks hatched this morning @AlexandraPalace lake this morning. Spring is sprung….

First butterfly of the spring. A real beauty too. #Spring

@primarkuk.bsky.social please tell me how this small sign high above a till not coloured or labelled indicates disabled users can get help and not stand for 20mins in a queue? this looks clearly like a wheelchair place not a way to get assistance! Also not all of us can look up at ceilings! #MS

@skynewsrss.bsky.social it is not balance reporting Hams claims that Israel killed those angels because if they hadn’t been kidnapped they wouldn’t have died. Palestinians killed them end of!

Have surgery booked for tomorrow and my #MS symptoms are flaring with anxiety. My feet are literally vibrating and my hugs are really painful. Can’t take usual meds due to anaesthetic so it’s going to be a very long day!

No #ThamesWater you can not increase my water rates by another 50% until you stop paying dividends and huge salaries to your share holders. #Waterisnotforprofit

#MS is not just bullshit it’s bladder and shit! It keeps on surprising and not in a good way.

@mrjamesob.bsky.social please can you name the author and book discussed yesterday about how the propaganda works? I was dog walking and didn’t catch it something about using rats for imagery…

🔴The Real BBC ‘Impartiality Crisis’ Is Its Constant Platforming of Hard Right Tufton Street Think Tanks The broadcaster provides an oversized platform for representatives from opaquely-funded libertarian lobby groups, argues Julian Petley bylinetimes.com/2024/12/21/b...

In the name of liberalism the people voted for totalitarianism. It’s going to be a long 4 years!

@mrjamesob.bsky.social please stop your equivalence. The Israelis are hostages the Palestinians were prisoners some of whom have murdered many Israelis.

@mrjamesob.bsky.social Georgina Toffolo is a good friend of Stanley Johnson and hangs out with Nigel Farrage. That her partner denigrates Uk workers is all art of the same playbook!

Not sure who is more excited my granddaughter or me. On our way to see #BalletShoes tonight. It was one of my top 3 books as a child. #books #theatre

I have no problem walking away from #Facebook it’s impossible to see friends posts anymore anyway. I don’t have instagram but #WhatsApp we use all the time as a family. Any suggestions for replacements?

Passing on a recommendation for a TV show on #iplayer called #TheAssembly. Warm with beautifully interactions from Martin Sheen with the diverse participants. Only 30 mins long but a birdie says more are coming. #neurodivergent #honestTV

New year same biased language and interviews on the #SundayMorning news shows.

Maybe watching #AboutTime with a father in ICU is not totally the best move. Still the reminder to live in the moment is timely. One of the better Richard Curtis films in my opinion.

#FirstDirect will happily let 91 yr old die rather than engage with issue of a blocked card they have blocked. Also leave an 86 yr old without funds in Durban. You are a disgrace

One of the best things about the post Christmas limbo is being able to indulge in discovering new worlds in pristine hardbacks. Nothing beats the thrill of opening one up for the first time. Plus there are usually chocolates around for sustenance. #guilypleasure #books

Oops might have gone a bit fast on the #BucksFizz. Dinner could be interesting

Loving the #DrWhoProm and very jealous of those who got to watch it live.

If you like #AChristmasCarol it’s on Channel 5 tonight at 17.10. One of the truest to the #book.

@waitrose what is the point of ordering 2 months in advance in UK and then to be told by your South African call centre that they can’t rectify mistakes! #EpicFail other stores have all been really helpful yours is totally useless! 1 very unhappy excustomer.

Just a thought but if Reform are going to do so brilliantly at the next general election we might as well #rejoinEu now. Brexit was not the answer and the msm have complained about Labour since they won so why not really give them something to moan at.

We have now reached the time of year when every paper is publishing lists of “The Best Of” from films and books to names and places. Are there no more interesting things to say about the year every year?

Someone please take the batteries out of Chris Philps he’s not even drawing breath between words and gulps! #BBSLauraK

Dogs not up for a walk this morning! Can’t say I blame them😀

If you’re applying for PIP, the charity Turn2Us has launched The PIP Tool: a free guide to navigate the benefits process. Their goal “is to make sure you know your rights and can afford what you need to enjoy life fully.” Share widely! pip.turn2us.org.uk

Just discovered this #msfriday thread. Thanks whoever set it up it’s nice to share with those who get it without the need to explain. I’m looking forward to meeting up with fellow MS dancers from the project with royal ballet for the last night of #brightsparks @SoHoTheatre written by one of troupe😊

Important to get as many voices as possible filling in this survey -- so that it can be taken forward to politicians as evidence of public engagement with/ concern about this issue. Please do fill in and share. I sense this Bluesky community is about getting things done... so let's do it! 👇

So chuffed a photo I took out walking the dog at Alexander Palace will be in this years “friends of calendar”. Guess that makes me a published #Photographer. Clever little iPhone!

Just wanted to say it’s the last week to catch #BrightPlaces at the #SoHoTheatre. Written by an #MS playwrite about her journey. Worth a visit if you are in London.

I’m beginning to think that even if #Labour brought about world peace and cured cancer the press in the UK would find a way to criticise them. Yes you #BBCNews #SkyNews!

Hello #MSFamily I have a couple of questions for those of you who get hugs. Do you ever worry that the hug is actually a heart attack? As with so many symptoms do you find that too many mimic potentially more serious conditions?

Any fellow #MS warriors on here? Is there a feed?

Nigel Farage loves open borders - for the super rich youtu.be/SA8T29zWNCw?...

Just ordered a load of Christmas gift books. My local bookshop was so chuffed and told me they are fed up with people asking for advice and then going home to use Amazon! #booklovers please support your small traders they have so much knowledge. Use it or lose it!
