I take it "For fuck's sake" needs the possessive apostrophe. As in.. for the sake of fuck...

Wtaf is going on? Feels like genuine collapse..full change of world order. Technical monopolies... Can't believe anything you read or hear.. the people at the top, openly lying in plain sight then just denying it with a shrug. So many disillusioned....

Money is now boring to them. Power is the draw. Absolute power. And the plebs will continue cheer on their king.

Out with a mate who doesn't realise that the NHS and council housing are SOCIALIST ideologies... People don't understand basics.. that's why reform and the right are winning... The left are too proud to fight the battle on the battlefield..

Think Musk or one of the others will eventually buy out Blue sky? One day.. it will be impossible to have an opinion that goes against the narrative. The gatekeepers will stop it all. Back to carrier pigeon.

I've always wanted change. Even anarchy when I was young and disillusioned with the world.. but watching rich boys burn the club house down, whilst the people who need it most, cheer emphatically and encourage the pyromaniac to keep going, is something I never saw coming. #bluesky #politics #ftw

Sorry Ridley, but WTAF. Gladiator 2.. is awful. Started generic.. and I was ok with that.. then the Colosseum was suddenly full of water and sharks and it took a steep nose dive. I actually hated it.

The world is crazy and I'm looking for ways to disappear further. A hole will suffice.

The UK govt needs to stand TFU. I did not vote for policies based around 'growth above all else'. This middle of the road, say nothing/ offend nobody is a gross misjudgement and will cost. Stand for something real Ffs. Implement some real change while you can.

Rewatching A Long Way Round on Apple TV. Quality. At 47.. I still long for adventure, but my hips sometimes struggle with a memory foam mattress so Im not sure I'm made of the right stuff anymore.

By joining @bsky.app I'm suddenly clever enough that the Illuminati have set four agents in to make sure they secure a man of this intelligence, but also gorgeous enough that twenty-something porn stars are suddenly interested in my 46 year old arse. Quite the app. 👌🔥

I propose that England adopt some Irish traditions. We need to start appreciating music again. Playing instruments in pubs and openly singing at funerals and celebrations. Music is largely lost in this country and it's getting worse.
