Social Work elder crawling towards retirement or death - whichever takes a chunk out of my arse first.
Main motivation was the joy brought to me by @annabsavage.com - with the added pleasure of the song in question pointing me towards the brilliance of Wendy Cope 🙏

I love Jesse a lot.
The new ICE song by Jesse Welles nails it.
ICE isn’t recruiting heroes, it’s recruiting the bitter, the rejected, the ones desperate for a badge to cover their failures.
Losers with power become the most dangerous kind.

My dad worked here in the early 80s. He said the blokes he worked with carried a pint glass in the front pocket of their overalls and would consume about 12 pints per shift.
Farewell to the Fed. The old Federation Brewery site in Gateshead is to become a £40m multi-storey golf & leisure complex. The Fed supplied working men's clubs since the end of WW1 & briefly brewed Newcastle Brown Ale before Heineken moved it to Tadcaster, losing its protected geographical status.

Bob Vylan coverage should have been pulled, says BBC
Aaah just fuck off. The Internet is awash with IDF members gloating about killing babies. I thought better of Emily Eavis too if I'm honest.

I was this man. "I like Corbyn but Starmer is more electable ".. I've now seen the error of my ways and returned to wanting the revolutionary Marxism of my youth..
one thing ive found in discussions with “centrists” is theyre a lot more progressive on most issues if you can get them to ignore what they think is “possible” or wins elections and drill down on what they think would be best for the country and helps people

If you own an electric car, don't forget to renew your tax before the end of March. It doesn't need to be expiring this month for you to do so, and you'll have to pay from next month.

This is where I grew up. They've not even spelt it right, but Breightmet means 'Bright Meadow' in olde English apparently. It's neither bright, nor does it have a great deal of green.

Orderly queues in pubs when 70% of the bar space is free and the queue is snaking around the actual tables of drinkers is a modern phenomenon which I just can't understand.

@annabsavage.bsky.social - just wanted to say how breathtakingly good the new album is.. it feels like experiencing the joy of a new chapter in life with a good friend. I genuinely can't remember the last time that I was so in awe at an artist's talent. Thank you.

I had a dream last night that my username was "Mucky Trucker" and can't get it out of my head. Unfortunately, I am neither a trucker nor mucky - not in the 70s 'Carry On' sense anyway.
