A Danish bakery is selling bright orange Trump ‘moron cakes’ – suck on that, MAGA! www.thepoke.com/2025/01/28/a...

My favorite part is how Vance looked around at the immigrant to his right and the daughter of immigrants to his left and was waiting for someone to agree that what was he was hearing was crazy and offensive. Sadly, I’m sure they probably do.

Big tech is now formally in league with the far-right. The resistance to it will be personal and political iandunt.substack.com/p/how-to-res...

Mexico denied a US military plane from landing with deported immigrants today, foiling Donold’s plans.

Seriously though, does Trump have a Lammy piss tape?

Word of the day is ‘catch-fart’ (17th century: an obsequious individual who will always follow the political wind.

Isabel Oakeshott is now a non-integrating immigrant in Dubai, and everybody’s irony meters have exploded. www.thepoke.com/2025/01/20/i...

Very important for everyone in the British politics to understand what we are dealing with here, and the stakes involved. Not politics as normal.

Four years since my son wrote the best opening to a mystery novel ever written.

Why is the media like this?

My message to Zuck

“Will pay any amount.” Feels like one of those futile pleas we’re going to hear from wealthy people more and more in the era of climate change.

Word of the day is a favourite, from old Scots. To ‘tartle’ is to hesitate while introducing someone because you have completely forgotten their name.

Word of the day is ‘librocubicularist’: one who loves nothing better than reading in bed. (Not easy to say, but I’m glad to know it exists).

Word of the day is ‘quiddler’ (19th century): one who pays great attention to trivial matters as a way of avoiding the important ones.

It’s hard to see how a Labour government could agree to a free trade deal with Trump. We know from the past that it comes loaded with demands - opening up the NHS to US firms, allowing access to previously banned industrialised American food products… Closer ties with the EU is the only real option.

Thanks for noticing.

In a crowded field, woke may now be the single most meaningless word in the modern lexicon. Its usage long ago departed the realm of sanity into some kind of lunatic deepspace.

Not just Trump's team

Is the horror community on here called #BooSky yet and if not why not

It was 11pm, Leo awoke from his slumber at my feet, wandered upstairs and downstairs before arriving to stare at me for not offering him food. Got myself a packet of crisps and ignored him.

A book review for "The Ten Thousand Doors of January"

My Malory

We need to all agree right now to bully JK Rowling off of this platform the second she arrives.

Last Saturday's mission unaccomplished since we spent 4 hrs chatting instead, and I still haven't finished that book when I had 100 pages left 8 days ago. I will finish you "Ten Thousands Doors of January", as soon as I've watched Trusty Hogs podcast ep & patreon extras 😂🐷.

Good morning! If you've found my 'UK news and politics' starter pack useful to get you up and running on @bsky.app, please spread the word to new users by giving this a repost. Cheers! go.bsky.app/VNsC9bL

BEST thing about this site,, I can hide negative replies and unattach my posts from reposts that are rude,,, I ain’t gonna take no negativity or trolling on my page. You will not build up by tearing others down here.

I don’t think people realise how hard & fast this is going to hit. Absolutely chilling.

The X exodus - could Bluesky spike spark end of Elon Musk's social media platform? Even Google appears to trust X less, with one expert telling Sky News the search engine treats X competitor Bluesky as 10 times more important than Elon Musk's platform news.sky.com/story/the-x-...

An important PSA

Book pages should be numbered backwards so we’re always counting down how many pages we have left
