So much truth. And controversial view: for me one of the key differences between radio programmes and podcasts is that radio programmes rarely make me shout GET THE FUCK ON WITH IT I DON’T CARE WHAT YOU SAID EARLIER IN THE PUB I WASN’T THERE

I'm an artist and I can block people from seeing my social media, refuse to sell my photos to people, and pull exhibitions from venues that support political parties that push for the eradication of people like me. Art is inherently political. What's selfish is assuming artists owe you their work.

Started a while ago but 2026 is def no feedback by me will be written, no satisfaction surveys filled. Not unless they pay me appropriately.
One company last week even wanted me to record a video, for free. Are you freakin' kidding me?

1/10 The new year is just around the corner, so here's a look back at our top 10 favourite pictures of 2025. Here is the Harvest Moon rising over Titterstone Clee. The sky was a vivid blend of pink and purple, contrasting with the cool tones of the radar dome below. #Shropshire

Happy to let you know that in the northern hemisphere we’ve now done the darkest two weeks in the year. All the other 50 weeks will be lighter than this.

The government is working on a new Elections Bill, and we want to see a simple safeguard added - a cap on the amount anyone can donate to a political party. buff.ly/Zps1eVo

The fatberg wants his name in lights while he can see it himself, it's really not hard to work out. Legacy means jack to this drain garbage.
Trump is forcing people to name things after him because nobody in the future is going to voluntarily do it for anything meaningful.

It’s hard to hold your hand up and say you hate helping underprivileged children. Or don’t want to bring back youth clubs, or Best Start hubs. Difficult to say you don’t support workers or renters or the Hillsborough victims.
Much easier to say you hate a man. Hate Starmer. See it for what it is
