Is my Bluesky handle. I am hoping to see the good and people of my timeline over there. This forum is endlessly disappointing and little more than a hate vessel.

Over half of white women in the US looked at that marmalade rapist and thought, yeah - he's the one for me. OVER HALF. Tell it to your daughters and granddaughters when they need reproductive care.
Only black people decisively opposed Trump, particularly black women. Look at how bitterly they were let down by white folk. I expected no better from the men but the women should hang their soon to be cloaked heads in fucking shame for electing the KKK endorsed Taliban to power.

Trump's apparent victory has 5 big implications for the UK: 🧵
1️⃣ It can happen here. He will back Farage, the Musk propaganda machine will crank up against Labour; the Tories will remould themselves into Trump-lite Islamophobes ...

Word of the day is ‘recrudescence’ (17th century): the return of something terrible after a time of reprieve.

So, for the newbies, this is how you do the election. Here's a results tracker. You can watch the results come in from individual districts, in real time. It's lots of fun. (if you're a numbers geek) Here's CNNs but there are loads of them out there. And the results don't lie.

It’s time for Labour to remember its roots and reinstate the right to peaceful protest.
Thanks to @ChrisGPackham for the narration

"I've lost the bloody reference..."
ALT A citation reading: "This figure is from a New York Times article of the period, and will probably show up if you search keywords for "Barge Captain, "1258 dead horses," or "Barren Island," in Pro Quest Historical Newspapers. I've lost the bloody reference, and am confessing my carelessness to the world instead of spending the day looking for the exact piece. Perhaps you could just trust me on this one. If you can, then I thank you."

Academic chums- Leanne is excellent and opening her books for new proofreading work. Please share
Aca friends, an announcement of sorts (and thread): Over the last few months, alongside my ongoing research and writing commitments, I’ve been thinking about working on something that – thanks to the support and prompting of friends – I can finally share with you publicly.

It’s almost getting a bit Field of Dreams/Waynes World with all of these reunion tour announcements (reference as old as the average audience for these shows a myself included!)
Supergrass are thrilled to announce a special UK tour in 2025 to celebrate the 30th anniversary of their chart-topping debut album I Should Coco.
Fans can look forward to hearing the entire album performed live for the first time, along with their favourite hits from the band.

Such an interesting approach. True to form and savvy as heck to let the conveyor belt of content do the work…
The Cure @thecure have announced the release date of their first album in 16 years, by placing a single poster outside the pub they played their first gig in 1978.
The Railway, Crawley, Sussex.
Now that’s cool….and two fingers up to the usual corporate hype.
