I make guitars, bad jokes and occasional furniture. But mostly I say what ever pops into my head.
I used to work for them on a UK campus back in 2006, it was at a weird time. There was the skeleton of two massive office blocks just left half built because they were already in decline.

Hope he's okay!

Dunno, but having a candy floss machine up front is an inspired touch.

My love to both you and Billy.

I think the idea has spread (I don't know how true) that it's a way of boosting people they like into other people's feeds. The belief being that BlueSky doesn't show you to people you don't know.

However I'm sure my "Discover" feed is full of strangers. And strange people.

Yeah, I think for the small-guy (or gal) BlueSky isn't a patch on Threads, certainly in terms of having actual conversations with people. I fear I might find myself returning after my tantrum storm-out. One day.

I've been trying to defend Labour about a lot of things, trying to see the overall picture and form a judgement at the next budget. But this has tipped me over the edge.

Same. Although last time I thought it was funny, now there's a chilling feeling each time.

I was about to joke "developing others" sounded like a euphemism for needing a poo... then saw "European Movement UK" in your profile and I'm going to have to be childish all day now.

Right. I'll cross "Nighttime erection data" off my 2025 bingo card.

I've got a lefty doing the rounds and was wondering how to get it close to you last week. Just to play with. One day!

You guys already got me addicted to Powerwash Simulator. And now the allure of Walkabout Mini Golf is there...
