Often grumpy (unless you're a dog), 50-something, international politics, military, and tech nerd. I don't do party politics; people should use the available data to make voting choices! Bit of a metal dinosaur, musically.
@keeperoffirearms.bsky.social Just rewatching Cunk on Earth; I'd forgotten you were in it. Massive kudos for managing to maintain a straight face!

@valvesoftware.com Hey Steam! My account dates back to June 2005, why are you now saying you want me to add a credit card (something I've not possessed, let alone used, for about 10 years) to a twenty year old account to prove that I'm over 18? #stupid #ruleslawyers

@bbcdoctorwhom.bsky.social Just watched The Well. Absolutely loved the way the troopers raised their weapons so as not to muzzle-sweep squamates moving in front of them. Really nice touch of realism!

In relation to a certain British politician, someone online just used the phrase "fuck off Nigel, you Innsmouth-looking fascist toady". This may be my favourite description of him ever.

@easyjetofficial.bsky.social Had a great trip to and from Crete with you last year. Before I start planning my main holiday this year, what jets do you use? Are they all Airbus or do you use Boeing too?

@ukparliament.parliament.uk We need an emergency debate to discuss rescinding the utterly ridiculous invitation to Donald Trump. Do NOT try and curry favour with this unstable, increasingly authoritarian regime, getting too close to it will only hurt UK interests in the long run.

@greatbritishmenu.bsky.social Was it just my imagination, or did they keep referring to Gustav Holst as "Holts" on Tuesday night's episode?

@dovforman.bsky.social Just watched you on the BBC. That was an incredibly powerful piece of television. Never let misinformation drown out the truth, however horrible that truth may be. You're a VERY effective communicator.
