An opinionated, socialist, pro-science atheist & Europhile. Mega-geek, computer freak, SciFi fanatic and author.
Seems entirely fair (and I say that as someone who's been watching quite a bit of it)! 🤣 #snowboarding #winterolympics
The DMV is to beef up its practical driving test with a module on maintaining control of your vehicle while being murdered by fascists.
It's shocking just how many people who, when presented with this and asked to identify which was male and which was female, insisted the female one was the one with an extra rib 🙄
Would you look at that? I did a #bash quiz on @w3schools.bsky.social and got 23 out of 25... granted a few of the questions were guesswork on my part and some more were just ones I knew did something although I know precious little about them but hey ho, not bad for a #windows user! #linux
No, no! Not the #Spectrum! The #Commodore #VIC20 has that honour I'm afraid.
From @newsthump.com and yes, it seems entirely fair that the organisation is not institutionally racist... er... yeah... about that... #police #policing #racism #misogyny
A promotional post for a struggling #sciencefiction #author, #simongoodson to hopefully keep him in business.
From @newsthump.com: I'm not even anti #jeremycorbyn, just smart enough to realise that he'll never gain power in the UK (mainly because of our poison media) and will only achieve what #farage did with the #conservatives. Mind you, it does improve the case for #proportionalrepresentation. #pr
Well F***! I invested £250 in #starcitizen (@robertsspaceind.bsky.social) in 2012. I'm 68 now & bored with multi-player so I sold my interest to a friend for £70 late last year. Might still get the chance to play the standalone, #squadron42 though... ...AND ABOUT BLOODY TIME TOO RSI!
From @newsthump.bsky.social: Maybe but those who say so have lost track of one thing; stupid or not, such people have the vote and the power to affect nations. Fascists/right-wingers have realised how to tap that gullibility... as it currently stands, democracy no longer works. #fptp #democracy
And another one (from a series that disappeared from our screens far too quickly).
