I can't remember the last time I worked in a team that wasn't multicultural. Stronger for it.

Perfect reply. No notes. 😆
Try to download Chrome, and Microsoft Edge pops up a banner saying:

“Microsoft Edge runs on the same technology as Chrome, with the added trust of Microsoft.”

You’ve just proven you can’t be trusted by snooping on my activity.
Fuck me, the Windows 11 setup experience on a new machine is just awful.

My favourite bit: you can’t create installation media unless you already have a Windows machine.

Which genius signed that off?

Nigel Farage accuses teachers of "poisoning our kids" on race issues.

Here's a reminder of what teachers and fellow pupils at Farage's own school remember of his own views on that subject.

Coming very soon. Please sign up! We can only do this together.

We're starting small but we have big ambitions.

Because if there's anything that the last few years have shown us, it's that we desperately need diverse, fearless INDEPENDENT media.

I, for one, don’t want a Labour UK government that is doing Reform’s work for them.

Stop being a useful idiot.
When you’re researching guitar pickups, and Google AI summary just quotes your own blog back at you 😂😭

I want to say “Not. Helpful.”, but the algorithm seems to think my blog actually is.

Probably a good moment for a periodic reminder:
Periodic reminder that there is nothing you can give the far right that will satisfy them.

Remove a right, they’ll go after another. Attack a minority, they’ll want worse attacks and find new groups to attack.

There’s no end to the authoritarianism. Just more, and worse, until everyone’s crushed.

Do you have experience of driving a bus or a lorry but you'd rather carry books?

Would you like a job driving around #Orkney, going to schools and delivering books to people?

There's still time to apply for the job of driving #BookyMcBookface at:
