Well, here I am; I suspect I shall be using this a little more than the old place now, where I'm nigelwuk for the time being.
Why is there always at least one ECG electrode still stuck to you when you get home?

Jeez; sounds like the Moral Maze are doing a full on "the womynz are trying to ditch men. We must bring back the patriarchs" thing.
They can fuck right off. I had no father around, and I'm a perfectly well adjusted butt-fucking piece of homo trash, thank you very much.

Uggh, #radio4, "Anatomy of a cancellation."
Once again, a whole load of guff about how brown people were nasty to that nice middle class lady.
Just fuck off, ok? You've been riding that sodding gravy train for years now, and the whole 'cancellation' schtick has raised your profile.

I think the "uptight church-going not quite reconciled with themselves" part of the LGBTQ community is the only part that Wes won't throw under the bus to get where he wants. And even that's doubtful.

Aside from anything else, that robot looks like it's wearing a corset. Does it fire lasers from its boobs, too?
Russia presented its human-like AI robot. It fell down as it walked onto the stage.

Presumably he'd have to sue in London. I'd love to see a jury either throw it out, or award him £1 damages.
Donald Trump has threatened to sue the BBC over the edit of a speech he made as his supporters stormed the Capitol building in Washington, deepening a crisis at the broadcaster that has led to the resignation of two top executives. on.ft.com/4qLuoyF

Sky owner Comcast wants to gobble up ITV.
Comcast is another organsisation that, in the US at least, has to keep on the good side of the Trump admin to realise some of its corporate goals.
This is really not a good time for independent UK public service broadcasting.

If the right (especially the US right) manage to successfully neuter the BBC, and bend it more permanently towards their viewpoint, I imagine that having taken on the 'big beast' of public service broadcasting, they'll be going after others next, the likes of RTE, France Televisions and so on.

Diane Abbott for Director General!
It gives her a way to bow out of the Commons gracefully, and will make so many heads explode, it's worth it just for that.

Hah! Whiny right wingers have made so much fuss about the BBC that the most right wing DG in years has been forced to quite.
I hope Starmer gives the job to Diane Abbott, just to spite them all

US government racist culture war shit is even affecting war graves, it seems.
How utterly, utterly despicable.
How utterly, utterly despicable.
1/ The US Government has quietly removed a memorial to Black soldiers who died in World War II from the Netherlands American Cemetery in Margraten, South Limburg. The move follows a complaint from the right-wing Heritage Foundation to the American Battle Monuments Commission. ⬇️

Have finally found the glitch in an app posting to the Insta Graph API. Even when uploading images now, it takes time. You have to check the status of your media container before publishing - something the docs only really refer to for video.

If a small group of people can completely capture the BBC and make it pro-trans (which is risible; these fuckwits consider anything other than outright hate to be favourable), it doens't say much about the corporations internal processes, does it?
Or, it wouldn't if it were remotely true.

Jeez #r4today really is going all out culture war shit this morning. Woke up to some idiot blathering about BBC capture by trans ideology, and now the usual wank about how horrid those brown people were to Kate Clanchy

Have been watching Trigger Point on ITVx. Honestly, if Lana Washington tells you to stay calm, you're as good as dead, aren't you?

If there was any more soft soap in this PM feature on Lee Anderson, it would be a full on shower scene, like that one with Sid and Jolene in #TheArchers #radio4
Why not ask him why he wants to treat disabled people like shit and take away their cars, Evan? Are you too busy with the loofah?

Popped into the local baby Tesco to grab a sandwich, and have ended up leaving two out of their three self service tills requiring staff attention to unlock them.
The screens are so unresponsive (to my fingers, at least) they just assumed I'd abandoned them, no matter how many times I hit "Pay"

The problem with #r4today is that the presenters all imagine themselves to be of the calibre of John Timpson and Brian Redhead, back in the 80s, but they lack the talent and gravitas while the programme itself is of far less consequence.
