In my 8th decade & I still don't know what I'm doing.
No reason except I was reminded of him just now.

Dear America. I hope you don't mind a word of advice?
Have you tried turning him off and back on again?

Did they change how the share function works on Bluesky, or is my account just glitching?

(maybe not)
Epstein files photos appear to show Andrew on all fours over female
The photos put further pressure on Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor after years of scrutiny over his relationship with Epstein. He has always denied any wrongdoing.

So sad to read that #MartinCarthy is no longer able to perform!
This is one from many years ago - probably his most well known.
One of music's true greats who influenced many others.

Isn't this a telling aspiration? To want robots to look after your kids, so you can do stuff, rather than robots to do stuff, so you can spend time with your kids?

The darkness inside these shrivelled men must be like a gaping unfillable void.

To put things into context, imagine if Farage was PM at this moment.
Which is exactly why Farage is so dangerous.

No sleep last night…

Can’t get that video out of my head

Can believe the lies being told to betray her even in death

Can’t believe the mindless lemmings that swallow them up

America is lost.

The Immigration Act of 1924 helped keep out Italian immigrants, who were considered non-white. Dino Paul Crocetti changed his name to Dean Martin for his career. Frank Sinatra refused to change his name. Here he is reminding kids what it means to be accepting of differences…and not act like Nazis.

You can't stay in your corner of the forest waiting for sausage rolls to come to you. You have to go to them sometimes.

All tasty sausage rolls resemble one another, but each disgusting sausage roll is disgusting in its own way.

Clearly George needs to be tortured to within an inch of his life. Then buried. Then dug up again so he can be tortured to within a half-inch of his life. Then buried. Then dug up again & tortured to within a quarter inch. Then buried etc etc
