Mostly here for cat pics and guitar effects pedals. I like playing Space Haven. There will be random thoughts and reposts.
Duffy MoTM for #ncfc Think about it. Our defining moment was down to him. Manning only makes that attacking sub at half time because he kicked off publicly on the pitch. That’s the game changing moment for us there.

Fuck me rigid. I’m 80, 21 years service as a Magistrate, 43 as a teacher, passed the driving test 61 years ago and no points on licence, zero criminal record. It seems now that I’m a terrorist for supporting Palestine and making my opinion known. This is England. Mother of Free Speech.

📚 Can anyone give me personal recommendations of books with disabled characters in them? 'Disabled' can be whatever it means to you. Probably ideally fiction, be it for adults, young adults, children or in-between. It's for a thing. Thanks!

Since 7 October 2023 an average of 27 children have been killed in Gaza by Israel every single day.
A whole classroom of children wiped out everyday by a genocidal regime, even while queuing for food and water.
And still the UK government sells them weapons. Shame on them.

I don’t think anyone is prepared for what they just did w/ ICE.
This is not a simple budget increase. It is an explosion - making ICE bigger than the FBI, US Bureau of Prisons, DEA,& others combined.
It is setting up to make what’s happening now look like child’s play. And people are disappearing.

I'm still churned up after Anohni's Glastonbury set. It will take me a while to be able to move on from that. It was very good though. I'm not even sure if I feel right recommending something that made me cry grief tears. I don't want people to be upset. But it probably should be heard/seen

Watching #Glastonbury sets at home this weekend. I know it’s either good vibes and some political activism for most, but Anohni and the Johnsons set is the most beautiful, poignant, emotional, awkward and compelling thing I’ve seen. Powerful stuff about coral bleaching & biodiversity loss.

DAVE COCKROACH: Good morning!
It’s Wednesday May, 76,000,002,018 AD
You’re watching BBC Breakfast with me, Dave Cockroach
SELINA COCKROACH: And me, Selina Cockroach
DAVE COCKROACH: Well, today is set to be the hottest day ever recorded in Britain, as the sun swallows the Earth
SELINA COCKROACH: What a scorcher!
DAVE COCKROACH: Here to tell us More is Matt who’s down in sunny Brighton. Hi Matt!
MATT COCKROACH [REPORTING FROM WHAT REMAINS OF BRIGHTON]: Morning Dave! Well, the sea is long since evaporated down here…
But that hasn’t stopped every cockroach coming out to enjoy the glorious blood-red sun hovering ten feet above the ground.
Great news for Ian Cockroach here, who sells ice creams
How’s business Ian?
IAN COCKROACH. LEANING OUT OF AN ICE CREAM VAN: I’m on fire
[IAN COCKROACH CATCHES FIRE]
DAVE COCKROACH: Ha ha! Oh dear I think Ian is -
