I see Ange is now wearing Paul Smith. I wonder if this subtle PR move came to him unilaterally or whether he got the idea from Coops. Always thought @Sunspel would’ve been better as they still manufacture in Nottm. #nffc

Why am I seeing so many clickbait videos of public violence and anti immigration vitriol on my Twitter feed? Surely the algorithms know this isn’t my bag.

I knew it! The @Nestle bastards. And the reduced size of chocolate bars in @CadburyUK selection boxes make you cry on Christmas day. Charge us more and keep them the size we gluttonous swines crave!

Can anyone recommend a company in the south east of England that will service modern refractors? I have spores on the inside of my lens & would rather have it treated professionally.

I don’t read the legacy media propaganda much anymore. It’s a waste of time and a sadness generator. Just get my news from X – much more immediate, has actual world-class subject matter experts and tons of humor. Sooo much better!
