Just lurkin'. Dull, old, grumpy introvert with cats :) Don't worry about following me back, I rarely post. If I followed you it's probably because you made me smile or think. Came here to escape the dross on the previous site, you know the one.

If I just randomly followed you, chances are you made me laugh. No need to follow back, I don't give a shit about numbers and I'm fairly quiet these days. *Mwah*

In the interests of repopulating the earth/my new social media history, a part of me is tempted to relive this classic on Saturday night.
A Legal Live Tweet to keep us cosy as the bad weather draws in.
Anybody fancy it?

Dear Rishi,
I watched my grandmother aged 90+ lie in a hospital corridor for hours because there was no room for her when she fell and broke her hip. Then I watched as you decided my mother was ok to be collateral damage was she was retired. I've watched you take uni away from my kids...

Dear Mr Starmer,
your assessment of Thatcher's legacy is correct. Yes, she brought "meaningful change" to Britain, in the same way the bubonic plague brought meaningful change to the 14th Century. Sucking off Telegraph readers? Have a word, you fucking clot.

My new bathroom cabinet mirror is already cracked and I have no idea how as there's only me here. I have tried to disguise it with a plant, but it's going to piss me off for the rest of time. Or 'til I replace it.

I think I must've been using social media wrong all these years. People seem to be desperate for DM function, yet I barely ever used them back on the hell-site. Mainly because I have email, IM and texts.
What I want is the ability to bloody search.
