Ok, no more DMs now. There's a small percentage that are normal but the rest are a mixture of spam and just plain weird.
I live close to a school/ nursery & I expect noise. It usually just blends into the background.
But today, some absolute psychopath has given a kid a drum, sent them outside into the playground & they're currently going full Animal on it & have been for about half an hour.

Found myself outside a charity for suicide prevention. They had a board outside where you can write a message on post it notes & leave them for people who may be struggling, to read.
I wanted people to know that there's more love out there than they may realise.
It just needs to be more visible.

And all of this crap on the end of programmes from the BBC about being grateful that they're publicly funded is meant to paint over their drift to political right.

This is from Autocracy, Inc, about how modern autocratic propaganda works.
I consider this every time I decide what to share and how to frame it.

Just a thought: How about we stop shaming the poor for buying things that may not be essential, and start shaming the rich for making a profit off things that are essential?

An unexpected outcome of trying to learn another language has been a surprising appreciation of German techno music.
Did not see that coming, nor did my neighbours. But here we are.

Sick of people shouting Farage is our saviour, Well, time they heard it from the horse's mouth, this liar is not to be trusted.
Looking at some of them, they look like they're never away from a doctor, and no deep pockets to pay.
REFORM VOTERS, WAKEN UP!

Whenever I order something online and I get an email saying "we've got your parcel" from Evri, it gives me the same vibes as if they'd just told me they duct taped it to the back of a drunk buzzard.

Private Eye offers up an excellently scornful commentary on the relentless polling. It’s become ridiculous and has oversimplified our politics to dangerous levels of stupid and irresponsible.

Work guy banged his head on the cupboard door he was working in when I needed him to move because I had to use the bathroom. Poor guy was angry/hurt. Then the dog bit his trousers after partner said he was ok to be around.
Then found that partner unplugged the chest freezer three days ago.

Nathan Gill, Farage’s political crony from UKIP/Brexit Party/Reform, pled guilty to 8 counts of bribery. Briber? Oleg Voloshyn. And here’s Farage posing with Voloshyn’s wife. Pure coincidence, right? Farage stays mute. How much filth did he wallow in - and who else got paid off? #ukpolitics

It's sad to keep hearing politicians here from various parties repeating the claim that there is substantial fraud in the welfare system, & to use this claim to push for further cuts to an already inadequate safety net.
The solutions to the increasing numbers of people in this system are even worse
