Scientist, Ninja, Trumpeter, Pianist, Priest, Secret Agent Man. Sadly too many of those are true.

This is extremely good. Calls Farage a liar, says the idea that small boats are causing our problems is "bullshit", says rents are obscene and wages frozen (yes), Labour have been stoking racism (they have), says yacht owners are the problem, calls for kindness. More of this!

all branches of the US government uniting across the aisle to ban a social media app this quickly while ignoring school shootings for years, ignoring women’s health, healthcare, homelessness, etc etc should radicalize the fuck out of you btw 🤍

This man was born 80 years ago today. He could still drink you under the table. He could still make you laugh harder than anyone you’ve ever met. He could still make you feel like you’re the only person in the room. He could still give you the best advice you’ve ever gotten and make you feel loved no matter what. He’s an American treasure. There is only one @DannyDeVito

Can't believe this tweet is over nine years old. Truly, one of the wisest things ever tweeted. It gets proven true time and time again.

i can guarantee that no bluesky team members will be sitting with a presidential candidate tonight and giving them direct access to control what you see online

The New York Times@nytimes

Elon Musk plans to spend election night with Donald Trump, giving the former president direct access to the person controlling X, a key information platform, on what could be a chaotic evening. nyti.ms/3Apvv1R

The 2018 John Mulaney “Horse In A Hospital” bit is still so great 😂 Best part is he doesn’t mention the name Trump at all. Oh America, you finally removed the horse from the hospital. DO NOT let it back in 😬

Just a reminder that bsky.app exists. And that M*sk is one of the largest Trump donors, putting 75m into his PAC in just 3 months. If you can, move off this dead platform.

59% of the UK want *full rejoin*, you absolute chucklehead. No-one has "moved on". Talk about SM and CU right now, and also explain why you're not doing full rejoin since that's been what the majority want since 2017.

Dr Ellie Chowns MP@EllieChowns·14 Eki

The PM's pledge to “cut red tape” is a tired cliché that often means harming environmental standards and workers’ rights. We’ve had fourteen years of successive Conservative governments promising to “cut red tape” - what do we have to show for it? theguardian.com/business/live/…

Ah the ‘is Rocky Horror problematic’ chat. Through a 2024 lens - of course it is. But babies, being gay was *illegal* in England 6 years before Rocky was first staged in ‘73. It was brave, bold & brilliant for its time. Look beyond the end of your own nose, just briefly. Please.
