Seconded

just seen this great portmanteau, which is eerily accurate #TrumPutin

Unbelievable. Donald Trump has been invited to a state visit to the UK. We should not be rolling out the red carpet to celebrate this man. Agree? Add your name to the petition today: you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/no...

And to think our Prime Minister grovelled to this grotesque pig Shame on Starmer until the end of his days

O wad some Power the giftie gie us To see oursels as ithers see us!

it seems that billionaires don't understand the concept of free speech.

The USA disgraces itself.

Good to see Sergio Parisse get a moment in front of the Italian fans. A legend of rugby.

The thing about swastikas spray painted on the side of a cybertruck is there’s a 50/50 chance the owner did it.

Get Franco now!

Trump is truly deranged. The wonderful Janet Godley was right all along.

Due to the layoffs I am afraid that we have had to take over the running of the US National Parks. We are updating the park regulations but for now the most important thing people can do before visiting a national park is to marinade themselves for 12 hours in olive oil, lime juice & garlic.

From reading several recent things from an ostensibly pro union / pro labour Columnist on the other place it seems that 9 months in to a UK Lab Gov and 14 months from the Holyrood Elections, @scottishlabour.bsky.social still doesn't have a coherent message or strategy.

@neilmackay.bsky.social is a bit more bullish than me, but there will be many agreeing with his sentiments. www.heraldscotland.com/politics/vie...

well Scotland were pish!

This is why they're attacking science and education: if you can only win with disinformation, data become a threat.

not great from @anassarwar.bsky.social why promise to save jobs in a private company when you knew you couldn't/wouldn't deliver? www.bing.com/videos/river...

Duhan assist feels like an oxymoron

Give this woman a medal, she's shown more guts than many of our politicians and journalists.

It doesn't matter how many mealy-mouthed, cowardly, bootlicking journalists and politicians try to pass off what Musk did as a joke, an error, his freakish awkwardness, or any other damn thing ... every single Nazi on the face of the planet took it as a Hitler salute ... that is all that matters.

Good god the other site if full of white folk trying to defend a Nazi Salute and arguing with @wmarybeard.bsky.social about Roman History.

Rich white guy celebrating defeating #blacklivesmatter is quite the look. I'm sure he has struggled with prejudice.

Janey Godley was right

Why it’s time for the Ulsterisation of Scottish politics And I don’t mean importing tribal hatred. Quite the reverse. Rather we should copy the mechanism in the Good Friday Agreement that triggers a referendum. That will calm, not inflame, politics in Scotland www.heraldscotland.com/politics/vie...

@rachels-mum.bsky.social

This is Howard. He couldn't decide where to sit. Wound up in two places at once and may require some assistance. 13/10

Given owner of Twitter is going full far-right in his conspiracy theorising nonsense today, accelerating my move to making Bluesky my primary shortform outlet for Ballot Box Scotland content. Had been going to do so in early May (1 year until next Holyrood election), now ending US Inauguration Day.

just caught up with #gavinandstacey, brilliant and moving and hilarious :)
