It seems to me that tories and their publicists in the right wing press are so terrified of Angela Rayner, that the best thing Keir Starmer can do is keep her in post.

The Daily Mail is 'shocked' that constant racism results in racist attacks. Someone needs to sue the pants off the Daily Mail and Nigel Farage. Only when there are costs to their racism, like there is to everyone else because of their racism, will they stop.

Cleaning, reducing obstuctive plant growth etc... Mass scale solar farms cannot be compared to a domestic roof mounted solar panel array. Please do not misunderstand me... I fully support renewables and the drive to Net Zero. But we are kidding ourselves if that does not include Nuclear.

a single high pressure water nuclear reactor needs less maintenance than hundreds of solar farms. produces more electricity and generates no emissions. I'm not saying either Nuclear or renewables ALONE are the answer. we need a mix of the 2 if we are to rid the world of fossil fuels for energy.

While this is great news, there is still a need for abundant clean energy for the short winter days when there is minimal sun and it's not windy..... And the truth of that is nuclear. Until our politicians realise that, net zero targets will fail. 😒

So went to see "Saving Private Ryan" in the cinema (Omniplex Ballinasloe) for the first time last night. The big screen experience makes an impressive film simply epic. Thank you @omniplexcinemas.bsky.social

Never really used my Twatter account. It was a pleasure to close it completely when Musk bought it. I wandered around for a while first on Mastodon and then more recently here. I am FAR more active these 2 than I ever was on the other place. What can I say nice people bring out the best in me!

Disgustingly so yes it is. Although it was 2002 that I moved to Ireland I was at least proud to be English until the Brexit vote..... Then I was concerned where my country was going. Now I am just plain ashamed to be English.

make it as easy as possible for our friends and colleagues to exit America and set up new lives in in the rest of the world. After all other western G7 countries have an aging population and need for people.

The rest of the world needs to unite and isolate the US. Choose alternative products from other countries. I hate to say it but if we all can kill the US economy the mango Mussolini. will make himself so unpopular Perhaps we should also start accepting asylum seekers from all 50 states.

Work laptop..... Allow corporate mandatory updates to do their stuff, it takes nearly 2 hours and this is the result. I can't imagine why I hate windows.

Never. I had a trans woman work in my team on the front desk whilst in a hotel. She was one of the best employees I had. In my experience trans people not unusual in the retrogaming community, and all that I have met, known or simply interacted with are amazing people.

The dates for the next "Retro Weekender" are set. Here are some photos of those held previously. Anyone interested in some games? The weekender has grown and now takes place over 10 days LOL.

I am so very glad I headed west and moved to Ireland in 2001 when the company I worked for relocated from Slough to Galway. I'd truly hate to be living in the UK now.

I hope you are successful. No one should suffer from the disgusting treatment of this current Trump term. Sure I am not american, Sure I live in the EU. but if a country as large as he US can fall to tyranny then anyone can. Good luck sir, and bring him home.

I cannot believe that is 35 years old. It sounds so much better from vinyl than my original CD.
