There is an old belief that walking through a ripe wheat field at dusk could be dangerous, because harvest spirits, fairy folk, or wandering souls were thought to move among the golden stalks after sunset. The safest path, folklore advised, was the one that stayed along the edge. #WyrdWednesday

It may not be a national platform, but you are giving him legitimacy by stick your rosette on his chest #r4today
Kemi - Labour antisemitism = bad, Tory antisemitism = meh 🤷🏻♂️🙄 bsky.app/profile/wimb...
Just imagine, just for ONE SECOND, if this was about a Labour politician…… ⬇️😯 Imagine the Mail, the Telegraph, GBeebies, Nick Ferrari, Robert Jenrick, Justin Webb on Radio 4, etc etc etc…. But it’s a Tory, so hey ho and all that…. 🤷🏻♂️ #r4today #wato www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Badenoch tripling down in defending a Nazi on the Today programme. I genuinely think she should be forced to step down over this. It’s fully, fully revolting.
Nice comeback! You are the anti-Kemi! Jake Richards!✊🏻 #r4today
The discovery that Barack Obama is only 5 years older than me is upsetting! I feel old, I am old! 😳
I love this painting! Happy Birthday former POTUS Barack Obama! You’re 65 today! Dig that tan suit!

I think all racists should be put to work sorting the bins out, literally!! 🙄 #kemibadenoch #r4Today
Where on earth does Badenoch get the bare faced cheek to pop back into the #R4today to pontificate about early release? It’s ONLY happening because the Tories deliberately & negligently cut funding without a plan to manage services through their austerity
They did not “bring police numbers back up”. They cut 20000 senior police officers. Then replaced them with inexperienced officers whose numbers per capita of population were not as many as they cut. Kemi lying #r4today
Somerset will I hope show #KemiBadenoch and racists everywhere that racism does not pay. Absurd stance, even Justin Webb was appalled!! #r4today
Justin and Nick getting the thesaurus out to describe #Infantino as “beleaguered” and “embattled”. Wondrous use of our brilliant language! #bbcradio4today
@threeravenspod.bsky.social has recently done a well researched and interesting pod on the man, including this point. Highly recommend a listen!!
1/2 The evacuation of British forces from Dunkirk took place between 26 May-4 June 1940. According to Gerald Gardner, on Lammas Eve that same year, his New Forest Coven met (in a woodland north of Hycliffe), to perform a "cone of power" ritual to prevent Hitler’s forces from invading Britain.
Bede's World! Bede's World! Party time! Venerable!
if any of you know anyone who still thinks that the flagshaggers are 'just proud of their country', i want you to sit down with them and read these court documents together
Leaders of flag-raising group Raise the Colours Oxfordshire placed trackers on highway workers’ cars to find out their home addresses, the High Court has heard. RTC then attempted to intimidate the highway staff into no longer removing flags by repeating their addresses to them.
Where to start this evening’s episode? Kenton give your head a wobble! Salty liquorice is exactly what Bert deserves! #TheArchers
Rod Liddle, who once wrote in The Spectator that he couldn’t work as a teacher because he wouldn’t be able to stop himself from shagging the kids, has died aged 66. I won’t be shedding any tears, personally.
The highest ever vote share for a novelty candidate, so far, is 4.2%. Farage will win but with fewer votes as turnout will be low. If #VoteBinface achieves anything near 20% it will be a huge humiliation and the PSC investigation will continue & report. Meanwhile swathes more dodgy info has come out

How long will the Grateful Dead's songs survive?
The Grateful Dead endured an original run of 30 years, but its appeal has survived just as long in a world where the band no longer exists. The question now is not whether the music will continue, but...

The dog is not speaking to me because I tried give him a bath.😱
Ok 😤Jolene and Kenton they are treating Fallon like a mental patient. Coercive control! #TheArchers
Wtf, Joy comparing Fallon to her waste of space daughter!! #TheArchers
