Don’t know if it’s the same with muted words, but if someone else blocks someone on here then a thread they are both in will block that person to you even though you haven’t blocked them. I wonder if the other person had muted something.

I have this now. It’s a hell of a virus that can spread through Bluesky. Hopefully it is severely weakened by the internet!!. Hope you get better soon.

So the train attacker incident in the UK has a simple lesson for the USA. A lot of people had some bad injuries but to date nobody has died, because this deranged person had no access to firearms.

I suspect the number will grow if the first lot sell out quickly. They don't want empty seats that they could sell at home and probably haven't factored in the 'it might be our only opportunity' factor. I'd hope so anyway. Mind you, the rules only say 5%, which seems a bit stingy!

I have just over 8000 pts but can't go (previous committment that I cannot get out of) but my kids are hoping to go (just under 8000 for them). If they do then I might go over on the Friday and spend the weekend there with them - which would mean missing the Sunday home game as well; some fan I am!

I love watching her. She's unashamedly barking mad and fully embraces it. Perfect.

A purported ally threatening diplomats and their families with personal consequences if they maintain the positions they’ve been instructed to take is very deeply shocking, extremely hostile, and undermines the norms by which non-violent resolution of international disagreements are possible.

Trains should be a service. Profits shouldn’t enter into it as being able to travel helps business in many other ways and brings more taxes into the Government. Not everything is a business (see also NHS, water, power….)
