Came full circle in the end: I'm not impressed with X either. See you on Bluesky at @bitoclass.uk
I'm not impressed with Twitter really. I expect I'll get used to it but seriously, I can't even get a userpic to upload at the moment. Poor.

Popping in to remind you that there's a better experience to be had on Bluesky, if the X algorithm decides to let you see this amid all the riot-stoking conspiracies and Kamala deepfakes this site's owner is keen to push at you for as long as you stick around 😬
I did it! I stopped checking Twitter! ★★★★★, would leave a site run by a hateful billionaire again 👍🏻

Nothing I've heard about the BBC's election night show makes me regret my decision to literally put it on only in a second room at my all-night party and stick with Channel 4 and Sky News in the room I spent the night in https://twitter.com/stephenkb/status/1810004914560467442

Sunak's found a backbone and is suddenly laying into not just racism in Reform but also Andrew Tate! Where has this Sunak been for his entire career thus far and why did he think it was a good idea to hide him until the last six days of voting?

Why did tech startup edgelords feel the need to reinvent something as standardised and well researched as the basic format of video captions/subtitles? Who wants to read one all-caps word flashing up at a time?! Exhausting

Landlords thinking they are *entitled* to steady easy money no matter what happens and it's legit to do pretty much anything to sustain that unearned income is so well illustrated here, and so ingrained almost everywhere else https://twitter.com/prstskrzkrk/status/1803470994616754238

No wonder K*vin Sch*field is all over the betting story, he was a lobbyist for the gambling industry for a few years recently (his X bio glosses over this, funnily enough), so he must be outraged that the Conservatives are allegedly trying to steal money from Big Gambling

Can't help thinking if I were Neil Kinnock, and had experienced a devastating last-minute election loss amid a scare campaign about which tax rises I might bring in, I might simply not have this conversation in public during an election campaign 🤔 https://t.co/0Aa2nS7Ejl

Appalled to find out that, during @nsandihelp's own webchat opening hours, they don't have a queueing system to wait for an agent, but instead tell you to go and message them on a website run by a far-right billionaire.

Just embarrassing for these 'journalists' that they were just as clueless and out of touch as Sunak himself, almost completely missing this enormous story yesterday. "I suppose there is something slightly awkward about that", concludes Kuenssberg. https://t.co/m0vtiRJWvK

Can't believe I have to come back to this fash-run site just so I can share this video of Tim Montgomerie basically admitting he's just a government mouthpiece who gets told his opinions down the phone by No. 10 before he goes on TV https://twitter.com/BBCNewsnight/status/1798844486254223487
