Occasional Thoughts
@occasionalthoughts.bsky.social
Dad of one, husband to none. Mature student studying for a degree. Occasional thinker of deep thoughts and permanent thinker of a few sarcastic ones. Prone to the odd Dad joke from time to time.
Very much so. 🙂

And if 'Dr.Bashir' and 'Major Kira' being married is new to you - I'll just add to the mix that they have a son (Django El-Sidig)

Oh, and they both have very famous relatives - Alexander is the nephew of Malcolm McDowell and Nana's aunt was Cyd Charisse.

Has there been the obligatory "my childhood is ruined"?

No.

No matter how much they try and spin what was said, "incalculable damage" and "island of strangers" spells out exactly whose vote they are chasing.

Nor do I agree with shafting the Trans community, pensioners, the disabled and the poorest in society while at the same time the rich get richer.

Yep. Eyes very much opened.

I'll refrain from commenting on Starmer's speech and Labour's policies post the local elections as it would involve an awful lot of swearing and would sour the spirit of my previous post.

I doubt a single mother to be or a patient in the community helped by your mum would think that way. She sounds like an amazing woman and she has (for what it is worth) my respect and admiration for what she did. She made a difference.

To be honest, those last four words pretty much sums it up.

Pretty sure 'trust in politics' was a self inflicted wound opened up by the expenses scandal and then poked and prodded by politicians of all sides for years.

But I guess when you are stuck in campaigning mode and desperately trying to woo back voters who fled to Reform, facts are irrelevant.

Not sure if I should be giving mass or running children's parties...🤡

Now there sits a face that needs at least five minutes of being scratched behind both ears and being told he's a good boy...
