#TheDark. Showed promise. Monica should have been Miranda Hart-esque. That I can cope with but reading the English caution in Scotland? That's a real no no. So easy to get right
I've run a whole house on solar. Air con, heating, cooking, laundry, you name it.
Otto English@ottoenglish.bsky.social · last wk.I simply do not understand the mentality of people who prefer oil and gas and "drill baby drill" to the cost of the Earth and our pockets... to those of us who want clean, cheap, renewable energy. How brainwashed by big oil and its (often) paid advocates do you have to be? How gullible.
Not 100% perfect but healthcare in Europe seems to work just fine. Frankly I'd take Europe over USA every second of every day of every week, year, decade, century, millenia
Brant Reeves@bireeves95.bsky.social · last wk.Medicare for All would work Very Well with just a few Modifications….
Why is he allowed to spout this garbage unchallenged??

So Farage won. Hopefully this means that the parliamentary inquiry can continue and justice served
@alancumming.bsky.social brilliant play, #ICanDieToo at #PitlochryFestivalTheatre. Very friendly staff. Apologies to girl in shop I bought your handbag🤣. The loos. So brilliant. Use the one you feel comfortable with. It should always be like this
Jason is the youngest Black professor in Cambridge’s history. Rightwing newspapers are trying to smear him with fake accusations of plagiarism. We can't let them. Stand up to their hate and division by adding your name. goodlawproject.org/s/3ec4c0

If this is true, why hasn't anybody investigated it? Either Americans are first grade wimps or it isn't true. Anyone have thr cojones??
Brant Reeves@bireeves95.bsky.social · last mo.Looks Like Cheating to Win an Election…..
This is what happens wben lunatics take over the asylum. There's a reason why the EU won't accept USA eggs, chickens, meat.
Robert Reich@rbreich.bsky.social · last mo.The cyclospora outbreak has reached 7,400 cases across 9 states. The FDA just recalled 1.6 million eggs due to salmonella contamination. Screwworm cases continue to rise. And we’ve just surpassed 2,300 measles cases — breaking 2025’s record. “Make America Healthy Again.”
Who knew that @andyburnham.bsky.social doesn't have a magic wand? I know, he's been PM for nearly 2 whole days and there's STILL stuff to sort out! Tattoo a lightening scar on his forehead and tell him to shout "solveeverthingarmous"! Cut some slack people for, ooo a week? Yeah should do it...
I'm cautiously optimistic about @andyburnham.bsky.social . Anyone who can quote #MontyPython can't be all bad...
#PatriciaDixon #SheNeverCameBack @netgalley.bsky.social thanks for the ARC. Great read. Published very soon!
#ColdSunset by #WilliamBoyd. Third in the Gabriel Dax books and doesn't disappoint. 5 stars. Out in Sept

What planet is the education secretary on? @labouruk.bsky.social . No money to train nurses? IT? Funding cuts. Are you really sure you don't want money funding nurses and computing staff? Big mistake!
So Farage is going to try and escape censure. Hmmm. Part of me thinks it would be hilarious if Count Binface won. Part of me wants Farage to be punished especially for using EU money to fund Brexit. The old Chinese curse, may you live in interesting times
Not a footy fan but I was so routing for Belgium and they didn't disappoint!
#SheNeverCameBack by #PatriciaDixon. Thanks to @netgalley.bsky.social for an #ARC. 5 stars. Excellent read.
Sorry #Invisalign. After these 3 months of trays no more. They are uncomfortable. Give me a lisp. Dry mouth at night. Yeah, seem to be working but not having more after this lot ends. And no way José on metal stuff!!
@labouruk.bsky.social Get with it! Closer ties make sense in every way.
European Movement UK@europeanmovement.co.uk · 2mo agoThe Commission is reportedly planning to finalise negotiations on phytosanitary rules, emissions trading system alignment, and a reciprocal youth mobility scheme in the days and weeks following the appointment of Sir Keir Starmer's successor, following his resignation as Prime Minister last week.
Bigging up #Spain again. TRIPLE the money into women's health research
Spain being more enlightened has BANNED ALL LGTBQ+ "conversion therapies".
Thankfully, one doesn't need his signature but the other does. More women being tortured though by men refusing to let them have pain relief/anaesthesia. That's what is. Torture. Inflicting pain on another. It's abuse
WTF USA! Two bills passed by House and Senate and Trump throws a paddy. I despair of that country ever being sane again
