Parents... have you ever seen anything like this? A 9-year-old boy's birthday party invitation comes with an Amazon gift list to pick from. Putting aside the tablet, what nine-year-old boy wants a blanket, women's pyjamas and an electric toothbrush from their friends? Is this is a thing now??

The most pathological thing my supermarket does is just as I instinctively know my dairy aisle from my meat to my breads, they go and change it all around for no discernible reason. Reminds me of the tory party reshuffling the cabinet to make things a little bit more inept...

Serious question. I hate the term expat for the same reasons you must do, but should I now refer to myself as such? Because it's only white people who are ever seen as such so maybe I should shake things up and insist I'm now a Spajish expat? 🤔 I mean, that's the proper Brit thing to do innit 😂
An immigrant's wild journey. Grew up in Bangladesh, came to UK age 13, left taking Britishness Test to get UK passport till late 30s (lazy stoner), 12 years ago moved for work to Switzerland then France, I'm now officially a permanent Spanish resident. I'm ok with people thinking I'm a foreigner! 😂

As a professional failed writer, I walk the line between "am I good enough" and "I could do better", when I sit through truly diabolical scripts, I lean towards the latter. So thank you M Night Shamalayan for making me think my mum can do better than this utter shite

Just realised I spent a whole weekend without reading a single bit of news about politics. I might try that again.

I want you to use your tools to build me a house. Instead of trading your expertise and labour with a regular supply of fish I catch, what say I instead give you some pieces of paper or wire over some numbers?

I believe (hallelujah!) God and the Devil are the same entity. Like Jeckyll and Hyde. A loved one who makes your life a living hell... then promises he'll make it all better.
I know so many religious people in an abusive relationship with their God

Since my violent mugging, I've been walking round town looking like this. In my heightened state of monitoring passers by, I've noticed just how alert women on their own are. Then I realised it's probably because they're being observed by this loony freak 😅

You know how you love musicians and know they're great and expect them to come up with classics like life on mars and hey jude but do you still sometimes hear a track and go, like how, why and where did this come from?

It's a fact that those who say "proud to be American/British/etc" don't actually mean "I'm proud of my country" but actively hate the people, culture and way of life. Every single one has some unicorn idea of how the country once was (it wasn't) and can be under their fascist leader (it won't be)

You know guys, I often question the point of Bluesky as much as you must do sometimes. But I know if I posted this on xitter, someone would ask "were they immigrants", on Fb my mum would freak... here, you guys just a put a blanket around me and offered me a hot cuppa. Thank you. I love this place x
Need to offload: Can't tell fam as it'll freak them. Just got jumped on my morning walk by three guys. Ran into the road screaming 'polizia'... luckily instead of getting run over ,a cab stopped. They didn't get anything but nursing a punch to the jaw. Need to be normal for school run. Talk me down!
