Alright, it's time to transfer all of this stuff over from the other place. When I'm at a wedding or on holiday, I like to get a picture of me falling down some stairs. I can't explain why but here's a massive thread. The first time this happened was at my cousin's wedding many years ago 1/
I wish cranberries were bigger. I want to eat a mango-sized cranberry. That's it. That's the post

In Denmark, the ruling centre-left party adopted anti-immigrant policies to attract voters away from far-right parties. They just lost the post of Copenhagen mayor to the Greens. Sound familiar?
👏 Congratulations to @sissemariewe.bsky.social who was just elected as the new mayor of Copenhagen.

💚Congratulations to all of the SF members re-elected or newly elected and for the incredible 17.9% of votes across the country.

🌻Denmark’s people and nature will have a Greener future.

During the early 90s, informers lived under the constant threat of having their boom-booms licked down.

People can argue over fish and chips, roast dinner or chicken tikka masala all they like but we all know the real national British dish is a beige buffet

I take a bittersweet pleasure every time a colleague who's always given me bad vibes says something homophobic in my presence. I don't just have a gaydar. I have the opposite too: a prick detector. A twatellite maybe?

I guess I'm just a straight-talker. You know, I tell it like it is, regardless of who it offends. For example, I'm not afraid to say that the best Sugababes song is Flatline. Not many people are willing to admit it.

How exactly are illegal immigrants tearing this country apart? They can't take jobs or council houses from local people. They're not underfunding local services or privatising essential utilities. It's billionaires and corporations that are tearing this country apart. Don't fall for it. Tax the rich

So excited to be in this tonight! So, naturally my ADHD brain has decided we're writing a new script for a different show. I only get things done when I have something else I should be doing instead

OK. All done. Pedants? I'm not interested, this is MY Doctors.
If you are interested in an A2 print I've decided to knock the price down so that it's £60 plus postage (assuming I get enough interest to make it worth my while)
Let me know here or in DMs if you are interested. Probably print 10.

Another gorgeous line-up for @taskmaster.tv New Year Treat. But it obviously leads to me thinking about potential line-ups for the normal series. How's this for starters?

I don't think that suing a broadcaster for making a fascist look even more fascist will make people forget about the paedophilia stuff

People on LinkedIn: In my first week at [insert company], I've been overwhelmed by the kindness, experience and determination of my new colleagues.
Ugh, that sounds horrendous. I'm frequently overwhelmed by most things and I'm sick of being overwhelmed. Please whelm me instead

Again, not to go on about ai but I have a few thoughts.

1. I've genuinely never seen an actual creative get excited about using it. Someone who has actually made something before. Its people from marketing and finance backgrounds getting excited about a false sensation of making something.

I think it's great that Labour are scrapping the role of police and crime commissioner. No-one should be commissioning crime in this day and age

Quick thread on the BBC and the political and societal significance of recent developments:

One of the main reasons the UK has historically been so much less polarised than the US, is that Britain has a shared source of information, consumed and trusted by most people regardless of their politics.

In 1932, the people of Germany were duped into voting for the Nazi Party because the party and the rich people who owned the media told them that their problems in life were caused by Jews, LGBTQ people and Romany gypsies. 1/5
