Timely, thanks.
I'm having a rough go of it lately, and have been thinking: everyone is going through something, and you have no idea what it is, or how it's affecting them.

Quote post this is if you're going through something, and maybe we'll all realize that we aren't as alone as we feel right now.

Everyone at the WRU needs to get out of our sport NOW. These people are useless, self-serving shitheads who are destroying everything they touch.

Today is a day for confirming one iron rule of politics. Horrible people are also horrible to each other.

Scottish Government officials have ignored public outrage and expert opinion to grant permission for Flamingo Land to build their mega-resort at Loch Lomond.

155,000 of you objected to their plans, making it the most objected to planning application in Scottish history. 🧵

Some of his readers have asked Mike Masnick @mmasnick.bsky.social why his technology news site, Tech Dirt, has been covering politics so intensely lately. www.techdirt.com/2025/03/04/w...

I cannot recommend Mike's reply enough. It's exactly what readers need to hear, what journalists need to do.

If you cut foreign aid, you are hurting the vulnerable.

If you cut or freeze PIP & other disability benefits, you are hurting the vulnerable.

The recipients can’t push back, & have little power to resist.

If you increase wealth taxes, you’re not going to hurt anyone. But the rich, push back
