really hurts me not because I think I was important but because on the calls I still am, on the things I still do, on my impressions of what is relevant; I think it is immeasurably shit that my friends and I who wrote articles and did good intervies have been replace by pretty girls doing noting

I mean she was quite tasteful about it but she did nonetheles sort of call a person many years younger and from a much less privileged background a slut. (I really like Jamie, I think she is and can be tremendous)

not sure I love Jamie Chadwick, who benefited from such small social media tours as a series with Paul Hollywood broadcast on telly, arching an eyebrow at a teenager from the Philippines using social media to post what seems to be quite honest GenZ content

NHS have told my I am "too young" even though I'm confirmed perimenopause in case I idk deal it to trans people or something. (and yes the urination urgency is very embarrassing as someone who runs a pub and can't immediately go sometimes)

I would really LIKE to be able to drive again but I now have to consider whether I really can in a way I feel comfortable or a car I can afford cus like, I know the iX luxo mode would cut it if I die but I'm more likely to be driving pure garbage renaults from the late 80s. sucks 2 b responsible

occasionally I get the night sweats (thanks perimenopause) and wake up in a shiver of anxiety that I do ACTUALLY have to retake my driving test as a cost of having a Very Spicy Brain (and consider whether I think my epilepsy is safe to drive given the proliferation of flicker lights on roadsides)

dominatrix giving a sub a phone open on ChatGPT and telling them that's all they've got to get off on, like the pathetic worm they are would be honestly very degrading I guess

like clearly the South African state is not perfect but compared to the outright fash living their fucking best expenses lives in anglowestern countries: dear god, at least some people have learned a modicum of shame (mostly I guess by exporting their worst to anglowestern countries but still)

if anything was remotely serious anymore then it should have been taken very seriously that South Africa, the only state to really even attempt to deal with its own brutally oppressive apartheid and genocide in an even slightly constructive way, was the one that tried to take this one to court

Alex @purplechrain.bsky.social · 2d

truly, it is *wild* that when a country has spent the last two years committing heinous war crimes and genocide, so many people online are deeply invested in making weird phrenology race science arguments and not just…they are an apartheid state committing genocide.

nothing will ever be funnier than S4 of Formula E, in retrospect. like there was a heartwarming story of recovery from disaster and two besties fighting it with the power of love and friendship to the end but also it was VERY funny and we shouldn't lose that in the narrative

Hazel Southwell @hazelsouthwell.bsky.social · 2d

the funniest instance of this was when they took over the Abt Formula E team as champions and were like "well now, see, we will do it the proper Audi way" and promptly fucked it for an entire season including getting their first win DSQ'd and giving Lucas a broken car

bold of Audi to assume it will still be in F1 after more than 3 years but I respect the vision
