Hey friends, I’m in a bad place right now.

Not mentally; I live in Britain.

UK Politics 

Hello Tory MPs.

You may be feeling very virtuous after voting for the #PartyGate report yesterday.

But you're not fooling anyone. You don't get to claim to be suddenly in favour of integrity when you were perfectly happy to support Johnson at the time he was lying.

Waiting until you get caught before you come out in favour of integrity doesn't count.

The world truly is topsy-turvy when even Andrea Loathsome is making some sense.

That is a first.

Not sure who Sunak believes he could “influence” that doesn’t have at least one cogent thought in their head. Dorries, perhaps, but she’s nailed her faded wine-stained colours to an already sunk mast.

Class: Bard
Weapons: Ring binder hole reinforcer and marker pen
Alignment: Chaotic Good

Can’t say I disagree with this terse assessment of Stanley Johnson.

It's fucking insane how addicted corporations have become to #tracking everything you do, everything you look at, everything you type, everything you think about.

They've gotten so brazen about it. Shit like this - the #Microsoft #Edge browser routing every image through some "AI enhancer" that also tracks what you're viewing - is now a default setting. I suppose at least people who use Edge can opt out, for now, if they know to.

We need #privacy legislation so badly.

@trinsec “When you’ve finished, you can do mine”, etc.

The Scots language needs its own equivalent to “siesta”, but with various ancillaries to cover the existence of midges, taps-aff, the haar, Irn Bru/Buckfast, etc.
