Nazi Health Service, it is then... What the fuck is Labour thinking? How can you be supportive of a policy that will put us down the wrong path? We should have had the Lib Dems win the election. I hope the House of Lords veto it, but they are the elite. www.bbc.co.uk/news/live/c9...

I just blocked my first folkish person.... If you use the #heathensky feed, be on the look out for them. For now, it's best to block them as the site where I made the feed can't keep up with all the new people joining. It saddens me, but it had to happen some time.

In recent years, scientists have identified how plants communicate with each other, how they respond to touch, store memories, and even deceive animals for their own benefit.

Apparently, some fool on Facebook thinks Kinder Scout in the Peak District is a mountain that hides UFOs. Dude, it's just a muddy heather moor land that's difficult to walk where fools who think they are good hikers get lost and Edale Mountain Resuce has to send out their border collies to find.

I kind of find posts like this ludicrous because you can't compare health services in different countries just based on medical bills. (I'm not going to comment on wheather paying for medical treatment is a good thing or a bad thing) The health care system in the UK has become atrocious. -

Our current dog really doesn't like the cold weather. She was a stray wandering wild for about a month (at least) last winter before she was rescued and given over to the Dog's Trust. I don't like her going out in it, and heavy rain, because while she was wandering, she had no shelter from it.

The cold weather has caused the veg in the fridge in the garage to freeze... (there is no ice in the fridge, just the cold weather.)

I'm currently reading the Hornblower series by C.S. Forester. It seems that we have him to blame for:

1. Book series that last for ten or more novels.
2. Short story spin-offs.

There must be an anthology somewhere which I've yet to find that collects these short stories together.

I have too many books to read at the moment, but I'll soon be able to re-read Jane Welch's Tora Alta books in their entireity. For some reason, Lord of Necrond was really hard to get hold of when it was first published and couldn't be found anywhere.

Would you like to see a medieval landlord who collected eel-rents? Well then.

I present to you Robert, Count of Mortain & half-brother to William the Conqueror. He's on the right. The Domesday survey records that Robert received 8,125 eels each year, from a total of 8 rents.

That sword cuts both ways. Us conservatives are trying to find a way to exist on social media without having to deal with the subpar intellects that adhere to woke Marxism.

And the only thing Libs of TikTok does is hold up a mirror to the absurdities of the woke.

I came up with this philsophy about a decade ago. I am practically everything the Tories dislike. Your best act of rebellion is to exist.
Imma need some of you to think about thriving out of spite. I had big plans for 2025 and I’m definitely not gonna pre-derail them for likes of Elin and Tromp. I’m getting more involved. Loving harder. Writing hornier. Having more fun. I’m gonna be so kind to my neighbors, bitch.

Bluesky is funny because I can’t recall any other platform where its growth is explicitly tied to the collective hate for one person.
