Hi there! I'm Wizbit (formally Piffle on Twitter).

I'm here to listen, learn, debate, and escape the real world for daft memes, animal pics, funny cartoons and art of all kinds.

Left leaning, inclusive and friendly.

Every time I walk past this bit of fallen tree I can't help imagining it scuttling around, crablike, after sundown, and getting up to no good.

I increasingly think we’ll need to think of tactical bloc voting, certainly on the left. Which left-lib party can stop which right party. If there were some kind of Con-Ref pact or coordination in the future (which Reform need to really harm Labour’s majority), it would be a two-bloc race.
This too is a sign of an increasingly discerning electorate. Lib Dems say they think their vote is up in Hull and East Yorkshire because of a tactical attempt to keep Reform out. Though they aren’t sure whether or not they’ve managed it.

Insect eggs are often very, very beautiful. This is a clutch of lacewing eggs positioned at the end of a long rope to protect them from predators. I believe these have already hatched. 🌱🌿

It’s a message we keep hearing: tweaks at the margins will not save NHS dentistry.

@rthonwesstreeting.bsky.social rightly noted this service is at death’s door.

But we are yet to see changes capable of resuscitating the patient.

Labour MPs ordered to sink landmark climate and environment bill.

Some dark arts being used to silence people.

Threats of discipline/expulsion, filibustering i.e. talk to ensure that the Bill debate runs out of time.

Dhould be a free vote on all green issues.

If you want to turn off Gmail's AI features, go into Settings then in the General tab, scroll down to "Smart features and personalization" about half-way down and untick the box next to "Turn on smart features and personalization".

That should grey out all the other AI-related options on the page.

The Brexit Curse:

Brexit cost UK £27bn in lost trade in first two years.

British exports fell by 6.4%, imports by 3.1%.

OBR forecast a 15% slump in trade, leading to a 4% reduction in national income, over the longer term.

Self-inflicted harm.

Rejoin the EU.

Absolutely go f**k yourself. Autism is not a "get out of jail free card" for being an arsehole. Do you know how hard so many autistic individuals work to fit in, to be treated "normally"? This type of crap makes it harder for all of us. Being autistic doesn't give you a pass to be a predator.

We have had enough of the illegal persecution and killing of upland wildlife and the devastation of upland habitats just to enable the shooting of Red Grouse.
