Trying to be more bold. Can’t tolerate intolerance. Doctor Who, dogs and dinos. Glasgow Warriors and Leith Rugby pub quiz champ circa 2014. Friend of Gordon the Goose
The #DoctorWho Christmas special was fantastic. Possibly the best festive edition. Loving this new era.

Got into Strictly by accident about 3 years ago when Rose did *that* dance. That final tonight has ended me. Joyous, uplifting, inspiring telly. Chris has been sensational. But Tasha was off the charts too. Magic.

Just a reminder, as you look outside and notice it's already getting dark 😱, that today is the earliest sunset of the year (15:51 in London). From tomorrow the sunsets slowwwwly start getting later again. (Sunrises don't start getting earlier until Dec 30th hence solstice on 21st.) YOU ARE WELCOME.

It's not Christmas until Stu drops his albums of the year and the accompanying playlist. Mince pies heating up. Radio Times in hand. Spotify is on. Festive. 🎄🎅
A very special treat for both my Bluesky followers. My albums of the year list before anyone else sees it. You’re welcome 😉

Buzzing more after the France game than the Scotland one. Can France and NZ play every year please? Always serve up fantastic game.

What a game in Paris! France deserved that. Joyous end to a cracking day of rugby. #Allezlesbleus

#NFL UK fans. Currently DAZN has deal on for £40 for all coverage for rest of season. No codes required. Decent.

The relentless hype on TNT to pretend England and South Africa have a huge bitter rivalry is cringe. #ENGvRSA

Not a great game at Murrayfield so far. Scotland looking disjointed. No wonder crowd flat. Need much higher energy and better accuracy. Like the look of Hurd though and McDowell playing well #AsOne #arehashtagsathinghere

This whole thread is essential, it shows that people who are desperate will take almost any risk. If people still come despite guaranteed abuse along the way, then no border security will ever be sufficient, just pointlessly murderous.
THREAD: Somewhat interactive sample of horrors migrants will experience via the "Eastern migration route" which begins in the Horn of Africa & goes through Yemen & Saudi Arabia. Nothing graphic, mostly satellite imagery. Hoping to raise awareness here about Saudi border guard massacres.

We’ve put a lot of work into making Bluesky a healthier social network. This app is designed to give you a choice — in what you want to see, what you don’t want to see, and how you want to interact.

Some tips on how to customize your experience:

The Rest is History 6 parter on America '68 is an excellent - and very timely - listen. Sort of where it all started to go wrong. Recommend.

The exodus from the other place seems to be speeding up.

Apart from anything else. Just not seeing 152 temu ads in a row is vastly improving the experience/my wellbeing. And so far everyone seems so... positive here. Enjoying my stay.

Just realised you can now add up to 150 people to starter packs - was previously limited to 50 - so I’ve added some more people to the ScotPol and adjacent starter pack. go.bsky.app/Ftawpre

I do think this kind of reporting puts Lewis firmly in place as one of the most serious political journalists we have in the UK.

It’s serious, analytical, human, and reveals aspects of the moment we live in with more clarity than a lot of other news content.

After 15 years on the *other* place decided was time to do the right thing for mine and everyone else's mental health. Right bluesky. Let's see what you've got.
