Hey @alomshaha.bsky.social thought this may interest you:
I invented a new sandwich that I wanted to share with you.
It’s tofu which I roll in Shawarma powder, then corn starch, then fry in olive oil, on bread with toum as a condiment and little cucumber slices. Very very great sandwich. Had it two days in a row.

Dude! Stop moving the goalposts - I am challenging your claim that the posts are written "By a professional journalist" - did you verify that whoever it is is actually a journo before you said it?

New British sit-com Are You Being Servered? A group of hapless call center workers try to stave off a takeover by an AI firm

Follow Patrick! He is an awesome author, a great human being and a witty, erudite poster on here!
I was a late-ish adopter of BlueSky, but now I'm only 32 people away from 10k followers. That would be cool. This is in no way a hint. Not at all. This weather, right?
