- Comment on Why have so many people stopped posting on social media? 5 days ago:
I’m in my 60s. Posting on social media mostly isn’t fun any more, and I don’t really want to put more money in the hands of billionnaire fascists. So Facebook, Reddit and Twitter are gone (I’ve had to keep Messenger as I have friends who only communicate using that platform) and I’ve never bothered with TikTok, Instagram or Snapchat anyway. This platform and Bluesky are the only ones left and I’m mostly a lurker anyway.

Outrage? I doubt it, given what the orange twat has done before now that passed with nary a word.
- Comment on UK council placed 10-year-old in illegal children’s home costing £29 a week: Isle of Wight has paid over half a million pounds for four months of ‘wholly inadequate’ care 5 months ago:
£29 a week would be remarkable! The figure is actually £29,000 which is equally remarkable but in a different way.
