Ecologist by profession, eclectic by nature. I'm a proud humanist and liberal. I'm interested in conversations about nature, literature, music, comedy, philosophy light, history, and non party politics.
I'm giving up hope on Labour...

I read this five times over for the sheer joy of the famous #MarinaHyde sentence construction and the heavenly burns she delivers.

'But I want to sack some liberals real baad! I want to deport people. And nobody will be in hotels anymore! Nobody! Everyone must be in tents'!

Oh, wow...How was this written in 1909? Incredible. The prescience of so many writers from the turn of the 20th century never ceases to amaze me. Especially because many people don't think about this stuff even now!

Emma Thompson brilliantly and frighteningly portrayed him in Years and Years. It's the ' Just asking questions ' and ' Just being frank ' that seems to work. And saying out loud the stuff that people say in pubs. They think he's like them.

How was this show made in 2019 and how did I miss it? Incredibly prescient!
Did you talk about it in The Rest is Entertainment, @richardosman1.bsky.social?

So, I guess you identify as a clown then. I guess that's why you don't have a name or a face. Well, each to their own...

And indeed, we in Europe hated #Vance way before he hated us, and for the fact, we disliked the US as a state way before he was even born! Britain really needs to get its shit together and stop obsessing about the US! 🇬🇧🇪🇺🇺🇦 🇨🇦🇬🇱

Goodbye beloved #Google phone! I was prepared to put up with overheating, suboptimal reception & Android update fuck ups, but frankly, you can stick your #AI to your #GulfOfAmerica. Switching to a Motorola and installing #DuckDuckGo as a default browser.

Meanwhile the baby is doing commercial stunts for Swasticars outside the White House, saying that people who protest at the dealerships are 'domestic terrorist sts'. It's like a 3rd world country level of corruption...

Here's a tough male role model who has arisen naturally out of necessity. And yet the same right wingers ,who have been whining precisely about the lack of men like him, are trying to humiliate and emasculate him. It's almost like they're hiding ulterior motives or something... 🤔
