Advice from the sane…

Any tips on how one explains to a 3 1/2 year old her great grandfather has decided, at 95, he’s hand enough…?

He wants his suffering to stop, and is going in to a hospice for end of life …?

(Where oh where is assisted dying when you need it…)

The European plug socket, always looks a bit inelegant.
IMHO.

Had to buy a hat to fit my head… stop my head from burning.
Tried on a Panama. Legit, authentic. Great. But. €180.
Had to settle for a legit Tilley.

Downsides of having a 46cm head.

I look proper “Dad”.

Have now learnt that Corbyn and Sultana’s party is full of Vatniks and Tankies willing to concede Ukraine to Putin.
They are adamant - no more aid & help.
I’ve been in the trenches all day with it.
Screw #YourParty for conceding to Putin.
I’m in. I’m joining the Greens to kick shins and reform it.

Labour giving 16/17 year olds the right to vote in the next general election is utterly, utterly stupid.
It’s enraging how they can’t see it’s gifting the UK in to the hands of Reform.

What the f**k are they thinking?

Why wouldn’t a 16 year old vote for them?
They have nothing to lose.

I was reminded today of My Mad Fat Diary…
How it blew me away back then and left me in bits.
And… it’s no easier a watch now, than it was over a decade ago.
I sometimes think of chatting in my mind with Rae Earl / @sharonrooney.bsky.social and chatting about how our lives are going

Ever hear a boomer whining about life?
Or whining about anyone younger than them?
Tell them to STFU and listen to the facts from a boomer Tory.

Brilliant .

@stockport-edgeley.bsky.social a bit frustrating for them to leave X when you want to report wankers outside of Leve B…. Been there ten mins or so blocking traffic.

Gotta love Stockport Council.
A digital inclusion survey. Online.
Means they can ignore their digital exclusion.

@tomjss.bsky.social quick query - when you wrote your article about millionaires leaving the UK…
Did you miss the BBC More Or Less interview where the source of your data was pretty roundly trounced ?

www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/...

I know your FT colleagues used the same BS data last year, too.

Plus, asylum seeker costs, private school bets and Baumol's cost disease

Was the Black Belt Barrister always a cryptofascist ? (And a Reform voter with a foreign wife?)

Is there any point in him being alive any more?

Surely to god.

A post of UK home owning frustration…
House almost 100 years old - built with coal burning heating in mind.

House was always freezing.
So i did all the recommended things in insulating it.
15 years later… house problems from insulation…
Remove insulation.
House freezing. Burning gas like mad.

Amusing discovery of the day… the barrister with a black belt has a foreign partner.

Mr Legal GBeebies that’s hating on minorities.

Fancy that.

A bit like Farage and his German family.

Happy Freedom from the Tories Day!

Now… we have to wait to see what happens …
And remind people things are going to take years to unf**k

Happy Fathers Day to the parents and pseudo parents and want to be parents out there.
Wasn’t so long ago I feared I would never be a father, something I’d wanted to be since I was oh, 18/19.

…Trying very hard to bite my tongue on the “but” part of today…

How’s that happen?
