My wife, good music, dancing to proper disco, cats & scran are my passions. Not doing politics on here but put simply I would like to see a far greater distribution of wealth. HMFC are my ⚽ team. Edinburgh my city

He's been doing it for years
Well worth a follow

Cheers
First Espresso since Vocal Booth. We had a lot of them in our apartment.
We even took the cocktail shaker with us

A 250 ml glass of espresso martini. It has a thick crema on the top

I love my parents but I don't think I can do another ten years of saying "No, that's not true. That far right influencer/politician is lying to you again. Here are the facts." They get so frightened by all the lies. It's exhausting.

Respect to you

Sir Soul Subbo @soulsubbo.bsky.social · 5d

Oh interesting
Can I politely enquire about the gospel and soul oddities

Same with my now late dad
Had to just stop talking about politics as it wasn't worth it. Just try and enjoy your time in other ways because once they're gone you do reflect.
I'd also say my dad was poisoned by the lies
