Finally picked up Orwell’s 1984 last night. I don’t usually read non-fiction but thought I’d give it a go.

Trump is a Cheeto-coloured, bloated, racist, misogynistic, Europe-hating, Russia-loving, narcissistic, incompetent, blabbering, draft-dodging, cowardly, lying, crass, predatory, opportunistic, criminal, embarrassing waste of air.

There we go. That’s me banned from the US for the next 3 years 🤗

My watch thinks I’ve been an exercise whizz this week. I haven’t. I’ve sat on the couch being hot.

Controversy from our road this evening. Two houses opposite have gone green/grey bins, and I’ve gone black. Who’s right? Time will tell.

Follow me for more fascinating British content.

I gotta tell ya, I’m rooting for China for the first time ever.

One of these days, I will leave the house and have remembered to change my slippers to shoes.

When Trump/MAGA/America falls (delete as appropriate) and Republicans inevitably start to deny that they ever bent the knee, I think someone should go full Aldo Raine and give them an unremovable reminder of who they were and what they did.

I really really REALLY resent paying council tax. It’s becoming one of my highest monthly bills and I don’t really get much out of it.

Bit the bullet and cancelled Amazon Prime. Will make my life less easy, but principles. In their feedback survey, I told them that I value a free press and I’d be back once Bezos left/grew a pair. Hopefully conveyed my point.

I think today might be the day to cancel Prime. Small and sad, but I need to do *something*.

I really wish the media would stop trying to treat this as a normal situation, with balanced reporting. Call him out for what he is and what he’s doing. Do it now or he will go further.

And I will fucking buy my own Trump diaper blimp and go to Buckingham Palace to protest if it’s true that we’ve actually invited him for a state visit with the King. Rescind that immediately until he agrees to support Ukraine and denounce Russia 😡😡😡 #Ukraine

I will never forget the photo of Zelenskyy’s face after he saw Russia’s war crimes in Bucha in 2022. He seemed to age years in an afternoon. Watching him constantly cross the world asking for aid that should have been thrown at him is one of the deepest shames of our age.

I am BEGGING Europe to pull together now and support Ukraine and Zelenskyy. The man stood up to a barrage of abuse and bullying in the Oval Office and is apparently the only one with a set of balls in the whole situation. What a guy. #Zelenskyy #Ukraine

Trying something different with weight loss this time - a reward for hitting certain goals. This was goal #1. Bleak House is one of my favourite novels. They smell so good 😍

HOLY SHIT you guys, check out this AMAZING song, Hostile Government Takeover, by @agiftfromtodd! He's singing truth, and this tune slaps.

Give it a listen and repost to share.🙏💪

Just watched David Tennant’s musical prologue to the BAFTAs. The funniest thing had to be all the Americans politely clapping along, while their bewildered faces were saying ‘WTF is going on?’
