The TESLA (a/k/a "TESLER") TAKEDOWN is working... WORLDWIDE!
Turns out people really resent an unelected weirdo running our Government & creating economic chaos. Hit Elmo where it really hurts: in his big, fat wallet. If we #TankTesla, It's Ex-X! (a/k/a Twitter) #WinWin

How do you know someone hasn’t read your bio before friending you? You get a DM as soon as you friend their quite normal-looking bio back.
Despite your own bio saying you don’t want DMs from blokes you don’t know. And it’s always late middle-aged usually American blokes.
Get a life chaps.

Bones were discovered in a church in Saint-Maximin-la-Sainte-Baume, Provence, #onthisday in 1279, and claimed to be those Mary Magdalene. They've been a draw for pilgrims ever since - but my god, look at that reliquary. #badeurope

Give a man a fish, he'll eat for a day.
Teach a man to fish, he'll contribute to the global overdepletion of the ocean.
So give him a salad, maybe.

Pete Hegseth, nominee for Sec Def:

- zero experience
- his own mother will not endorse him
- not a single reputable member of the military has come forward to support his nomination
- has a history of sexual assault, financial mismanagement and being drunk on the job

You're all caught up.

So why has someone with nothing in their bio and not a single post/reply got thousands of followers? Are people just following willy nilly?

@elnescio.bsky.social
You post (lovely) pictures which you note in your bio are not yours, and yet I cannot see any attribution? If you post someone else's images, you must mention them

There are so many on the online left desperate for Starmer to fail, and they’re so desperate for this to happen that they’ll spread lies, misinformation & mistruths in an attempt to undermine Labour.

These people are the Conservatives / Reforms greatest asset.

I see that the @thelondoneconomic.bsky.social is the latest org to announce its departure from #Twitter.
I suspect the numbers will increase as Musk gets more ridiculous

Andrea Jenkyns joins Reform. Never has there been a more natural fit for a party of ignorant bigots and idiots.

After more than 5 years of frenetic, but sometimes interrupted, reconstruction work, Notre Dame Cathedral showed itself anew to the world, with rebuilt soaring ceilings and creamy good-as-new stonework erasing somber memories of its devastating fire.

Kemi Badenoch admitted that she hacked Harriet Harman’s website in 2008.
Badenoch confessed to the hack, which carried a jail sentence of up to five years at the time she acted, in response to a question about the “naughtiest” thing she had done.

WILL SHE DO THE HONOURABLE THING AND RESIGN ??

A remarkable stat: Heidi Alexander’s appointment as Transport Secretary means the cabinet is now 100% state-educated for the first time in history.
