I can see this hellsite turning even worse rather fast.
I'm going to try and use @pittso.bsky.social on the blue one for work stuff.
I'm on the other one too as @mikepittso (same for IG).
I'm even braving trying to use LinkedIn properly, just without the corporate nonsense.

Only a few days until we hear from the team that have helped to recreate the faces of Egyptian Pharaoh Ramesses II, Richard III & various other historical figures.
Working at the intersection of art, forensic science and digital tech, this talk is sure to be fascinating.

Air pollution in UK now kills 30,000 people and costs £27bn a year, the research, also said there was no safe level of air pollutants. The figure could even be significantly higher – up to £50bn – if dementia taken into account. theguardian.com/environment/…

Lollipop men/women are only needed because motorists can’t be trusted to drive safely, even around children & schools.
That’s why 1,200 children are killed/injured by drivers within 500m of a school *every month*.
We are building a deeply joyless society.

🧡 Help Mark Get the Brain Surgery He Needs
Our pal, Mark has suffered for over a year with a brain tumour. The NHS wait is too long—it could cost him his life. The system is broken, but we can help.
If you can spare a few quid, it all adds up 🙏

Tried to move to @VodafoneUK broadband but they messed it up and tried to blame me. So took the offer to stay with @SkyHelpTeam who then sent through an incorrect contract.
FFS. How is it this hard?

We’re so happy that @depechemode said yes to our cover.
Coming soon
I've just donated to help someone who's been suffering for too long: the beautiful @LatexSexGod.
