"Liberal bubble" has only ever meant anywhere where right wing perspectives aren't artificially elevated and forced into everyone's feeds.

Gaze into my sunflower. You are getting sleepy. Very sleepy

this is such a bleak read, but wonderfully written my main takeaway is the degree to which the burden of labour has been placed exclusively on creators, meaning Instagram/tiktok/substack get their cut for, basically, doing fuck all

This is such an great feature (Rebecca is great!), and I've been thinking about it for a few days. IMO, "Influencer" in the ten-years-ago sense was really a LOT of jobs (spokesmodel/copywriter/etc.) but now it's morphing, at least in part, into "intentionally annoying person" which feels worse.

I was wondering why I’d got 19 clickthroughs from The Daily Telegraph…

there I was eating the spring roll, and that's when I realized- oh no, the mint, is it like lettuce? is this going to kill me? did I make it through everything to die of this delicious bite? so anyway I dipped it in the peanut sauce and took another bite

I just voted! Now it’s your turn. There’s too much at stake in this election to stay home. Make sure your voice is heard. Polls are open until 8 pm local time.

When you get two cats, how do they decide which one will have a tiny chirp like a pixie’s doorbell and which one will wail like the ghost of a jilted bride?

What do you mean I’m “funny”? Funny what? Like Joe Pesci? Do I entertain you in films about gangsters? Am I a side character in the musical Jersey Boys? Were impressions of me a mainstay on SNL throughout the 80s and 90s? FUNNY HOW?!

watching people you love and respect cutting corners to keep creative pace with an idiot machine, starve themselves to keep pace with a new, more impossible ideal, it is overwhelmingly sad some days and no one is truly immune to it

is advertising the only profitable industry these days? i was using a hand-held blipper as went around sainsbury’s and it showed me ads *as i was shopping*

This sucks ass. When I start my car I want to be able to put my foot on the pedal and drive off. I dont want to watch an ad. A distracting ad. Right in the middle of my console. Again. This sucks ass.

you know, you can debate politics with your friends, in real life, without putting it online, if you like. no-one is stopping you

cabaret, by the way, is a musical set in a nightclub that starts as part of a deliciously seedy underworld where people of all genders, sexualities and ethnicities are welcome but which ends up conforming to mainstream fascism. if you’ve been on bsky for a while i think you’ll really “get” it

Ed Morrish@edmorrish.com · 2y ago

just saw cabaret in the west end, and good lord what a production. never seen anything like that effort put into the atmosphere. btw pro tip: the cheap seats in the upper circle are absolutely fine - you see and hear everything.
