Understand that @showerabsolute.bsky.social's uncle has been arrested

Summer of 94, possibly, I was working in a pub in Surrey and some of the old taggers had ice in their beer because it was damn hot.

I must have missed the bit where he attacks a copper with a sledgehammer, peacefully.

If you were on a platform with an inbuilt AI you could find out.

Can you post vids on here now?

Specsavers keep telling me that I need an eye test.

But if I've seen it I reckon that means I don't.

Are right wing profiles welcome here?

Jaysis that doesn't sound like me.

Tonight, slow cooked ham in cider.

For Paddy's but Paddy's coincided with Parent's Evening so McDonald's for the kids.

(The boy is an absolute joy, if only all the kids in the school could be like him!)

It's OK, bro, no judgement here.

If I see random autism/aspergers/Leeds United stuff I just assume the wife and kids have opened the wrong profile on the PC.

Ads are selected according to /your/ ad profile.

I'm mainly seeing ads about eGPUs

So is Darren here or not?

Chilli!

RIP John Prescott, a true old school politician

It's not unreasonable to assume that if activists are spouting a line in support of a movement that the leaders of that movement either endorse it or would shut it down.

If they haven't shut it down then it's an official line.

There's also an audio book app called Borrowbox that you can use to get free audio books you can keep forever.

You aren't supposed to be able to keep them forever but it's badly designed and requires tiny amounts of ingenuity.

It shouldn't be rocket surgery to set up an independent 3rd party verification system available as an api for all social media providers.

It'd be profitable too.

Surprised no one has done it.

Your bread?

Adults should be able to ignore stuff that bothers them.

On a phpbb board many many years ago (before blocks) I ignored the crap out of a particular American bitch who was trying to goad me for months. Gained the respect of many of my fellows and annoyed the crap out of her.

It was hilarious.

Welcoming the new intake...

Even the people on Bloosk are pale reflection of what they used to be...

I saw the terms "hot" and "magical" over on X.

Two of your very favourite people

Can I post videos on here (of @showerabsolute.bsky.social singing)?

And so will begin the purifying of this place (already being touted by some, "Block The Unbelievers!")

And that will get worse, way worse.

So those perfectly curated echo chambers will be trimmed and pruned until this site is Reddit.

And at the same time there'll be the "Ooh we're so much better than them wronguns over at the old site."

And to do that you'll be reading both and many will feel the need to respond there so... Some will be sucked in and some will be ostracised here for having responded.

The mass exodus won't pan out.

There'll be an initial self congratulatory period, "Woo, we escaped Musk aren't we fab."

Then there'll be a period of empire building within the new platform, "Ooh look at me and all my fwiends."
