Hi, BlueSky. It's Hillary.

I've joined up here to help get the word out about an important election in Wisconsin tomorrow, and other ways to defend our democracy against those who think votes can be bought.

There’s a moment is Andor where he gets innocently caught up in an incident and, despite doing nothing wrong, gets detained, rapidly sentenced by a kangaroo court and sent to a forced labour colony to be worked to death.

Wonder how far Trump’s America is from that, or a variation of it, right now?

Most people are about 5 years old, not 78, when they realise others are letting them win at games.

I watched back Arne Slot’s presser and I want to say, despite the interviewer offering him every possible excuse, he said NO, that would take away from Newcastle playing an excellent game which they deserved to win. CLASS. PURE CLASS. #NUFC

Changed my view of #LFC as did their player reactions.

The photos of Starmer greeting Zelenskyy in Downing Street go beyond partisan politics.
They're a reflection of our decency and the respect Zelenskyy enjoys in this country.

Here we go. The start of the chaos. Immigrants treated like pollution. Ordinary consumers in US and elsewhere hammered by tariffs. Escalating rhetoric. Breakdown in international cooperation. And all of it achieving precisely nothing. Just a fucking waste of time.

Piers obviously didn’t mean to plummet to the depths of becoming an irrelevant, gammon-baiting prat and anyone who says he did is being a disingenuous idiot.

These Eddie Howe quotes from our interview today hit right.

💬 “Without a doubt Newcastle is in my blood. My kids are 100% Geordies.”

“That’s what we have to do as a team. Live it. Every second. Take that responsibility & make our people proud. We’ve gone on this beautiful journey together.” #NUFC

The garage that was Morrisons in Belle Vale is selling that rag again. They were told and they stopped but now it's back. Once I can forgive if there's been a genuine mistake, twice means they blatantly don't care. I'll take my custom elsewhere now.
