I still absolutely think that the English rugby team should learn how to morris dance properly and do it in response to the Haka against New Zealand.

I like Doctor Who, dogs, tattoos and old weird pop culture trash. Sadly I also podcast because I’m a white man in his early 40s.
Watching Macbeth and booing the whole time because this guy and his wife are super problematic

Are we sure that’s Stallone and not a picture of Andrew Cartmel after he’s just eaten something a bit too soar?
The Doctor's Beard Podcast@doctorsbeardpod.bsky.social · 16h agoOctober 1992 - Who was the mystery bidder of the original TARDIS? It appears to be Sylvester Stallone. But the real mystery is, how did one bid on the original TARDIS when it fell apart originally on Elizabeth Sladsen in "The Seeds of Doom"?
This is a really bad idea, Doctor Who has never had solid plots and should not start having them now.
Doctor Who Production News@doctorwhopn.bsky.social · 21h agoA couple of Sunday newspapers, The Mail and Daily Star, are reporting “secret” talks and that David Tennant is “keen” “if the plots are solid.”
It's actually quite funny that the real story turns out to be that Harry Potter fans keep despoiling an ecologically sensitive site owned by the National Trust with clutter, despite being asked repeatedly not to
Dan Davies@dsquareddigest.bsky.social · 24h agoFor some reason people lose all critical judgment when interpreting jokes made by infrastructure people at conferences or on a podcast. This just isn't what happened.
This reaction is hilarious. Is it really going to take that much of your resources to build a "cancel my subscription" form on the website instead of forcing people to phone someone whose job is not to process your cancellation but talk you into staying.
Press Gazette@pressgazette.co.uk · yesterdayAndy Burnham is bringing forward by several months to January plans to make subscriptions easier to cancel. Trade groups said this would leave publishers "scrambling to adapt to an entirely arbitrary new deadline - diverting valuable resources that would otherwise go into building better products"
I think my most right wing opinion is that trespassers on train tracks should be shot immediately and their bodies left by the rails as a warning to others and a food source for the local wildlife.
Sorry but if my life experience has taught me anything it’s that these are not mutually exclusive categories.
Steven Santos@stevensantos.bsky.social · 3d agoONE NIGHT ONLY reminds me of a friend of a friend who remarked after seeing Edgar Wright’s LAST NIGHT IN SOHO: “Don’t send a nerd to do a pervert’s job.”
getting really stressed out as my hunger for human flesh grows stronger cause i feel like, as a white man, falling victim to the wendigo is kinda bullshit? like culturally. what's the word. appropriation. god i wanna eat someone sooo bad though. definitely gotta be a white guy or i'm fucked for sure
A lot of people have a lot of views on the new moving picture The Odyssey, but my main takeaway is that I would happily watch an entire movie of Robert Pattinson desperately naming weapons from behind a column.
Verity! came along and offered a voice to a huge cohort of fans who had been vastly underrepresented in the Doctor Who podcasting community and tapped into something truly special. Deb, Erika, Tansy, Kat, Lynne, and Liz truly did something special and did it with style. Vale, Verity.
Deb Stanish@debstanish.bsky.social · 6d agoEndings are always a little sad but I couldn’t be more proud of the work we did (and the fun we had!) Thanks @hollygodarkly.wandering.shop.ap.brid.gy @xanister.bsky.social @lizbethmyles.bsky.social @lynnemthomas.com and @tansyrr.bsky.social. You made @veritypodcast.bsky.social something special.
Congrats to everyone who got a shoutout in the Telegraph today, although I don't know where they got the idea that Bluesky is a place where people are kind to each other. This is site is not kind. This is a PvP server where you get randomly matched with an American who has misunderstood your joke.
Mic Wright@brokenbottleboy.bsky.social · 6d agoI was wondering why I’d got 19 clickthroughs from The Daily Telegraph…
If you go onto Bluesky and trash Vimes’ Boots you are quite plainly looking for a fight. The quality of your argument is beside the point, you are here to push buttons.
I try so hard not to get involved in anything to do with this guy but what a catastrophic failure of understanding and perspective this is, my opinion of anyone who rates him as a thinker ticks down a notch every time I see something like this
katie@supermathskid.bsky.social · 7d agookay now he's gone too far
I hope when I die no-one is forced to describe me as “secretly” kind.
Got to see some racoons on my birthday, pretty good day.
What next? Maybe the rising number of ADHD diagnoses are due to crystals or ley lines?
Can’t wait to find out if eating too many Greggs vegan sausage rolls is going to make me neurodivergent.
Scott Bryan@scottygb.bsky.social · 2w ago“While traits of ADHD undeniably exist – the question is why they exist. Is ADHD actually a neurodevelopmental disorder? Do people with ADHD have differently wired brains? Or does our world – with…processed food, and regimented education – serve as the catalyst for certain…patterns of behaviour?”
Stop saying I’m my own worst enemy. My worst enemy is the Odyssey discourse. I want it dismissed but it’s curried such favour with the posters.
