Folks, I'm not American and I didn't see the Super Bowl Bad Bunny performance, so perhaps one of you could tell me if it featured excessive twerking and gay sex acts.

They're not as careful as they might be, eh? I had a doctor once give me a schedule to taper off an anti-depressant that later turned out to be seven times faster than it should have been. Wasn't a good time tbh.

Someone told me, "Get rid of this sick son of yours and find relief from this pain," as if he wanted me to end his life. I swear to God, I am poor and do not have the money to save his life. I am helpless; if I had the money, I wouldn't have asked for donations from anyone.🙏🏼👇🏼

Oh God how heartbreaking it is when your child is in pain and looks at you as if saying, 'Save me, save my life, and who else but you can save me? How my heart burns with agony over my helplessness to save his life I wish I hadn't been born poor
I wish I were the one to He dies

Starmer has continued Blair's project of denying the people of the UK a vaguely left-wing party political choice.

I don't think Starmer, Streeting and co are in the right party: the Tories and Reform are right there; just join them, no need to drag Labour further through the mud.

Morning folks! 21 days to go and we're at 237 prelaunch followers.
I'd feel a lot less nervous if we hit 300 before launch.
Can you do me a favour and give this a signal boost, ideally tagging a geeky parent/teacher you know who might be interested?
Thanks!
