Dave Matthews (aka WiltonSpinach)

@wiltonspinach.bsky.social

Dave Matthews - quizzing, TV, comedy, food, probably too much politics, LGBT+, hoping this is better than X. Dad jokes are the author's own. He/him.

Understandably and predictably, sometimes people choose the latter. And that means police have to intervene on lots of cases that could and should’ve been dealt with by moderators instead. Right wing people are getting arrested because Musk won’t enforce the law on X. And politicians won’t say that.

Hotel near me had more crash barriers and green plastic stuff put behind existing railings. That made me think it was an asylum hotel. Turns out a few days later, the racist protests kicked off. Now the England flags around the hotel are a dead give away.

Growing up in the Irish Nationalist community in NI, it's probably no surprise I don't get the love the English have for the Royal Family. But I don't get why there isn't a mass of people screaming for Andrew and Fergie to get nothing more than JSA/state pension and a council house.

Any chance of a prisoner swap Iran?

BBC News stories one on top of the other. One saying Tommy Robinson has been arrested. The other about a British couple in Iran's worst prisons.

In 2022 I received the wholesome DM in the image on the left on the Other Site, tonight I received the one on the right 🥹🥹🥹🥹

A Twitter DM from June 2022 reads: Hi Mollie, I hope you're well. Just sending a message to say thanks. Early this year you tweeted a Guardian Blind Date, where the guy dragged the girl a little bit. After seeing a couple of people saying some pretty shit things about her on Twitter, I DM'd her to balance it out a bit - just say I thought she came across as really funny and fuck the haters etc (but with no other real intention other than that). Well we hit it off, talked every day for a month (I was working out of the UK at the time) and agreed to meet as soon as I returned. I ended up coming home early and we've been dating ever since. It might sound a bit over the top but l've never felt like this about anyone else before, and I'm pretty sure she feels the same way. I've honestly had some of the best months of my life with her around, and I want to say thanks A Twitter DM from tonight reads: Hey Mollie, I hope you don't mind an update on the above. I asked her if she'd marry me, she said yes! She's my world. I'm so incredibly thankful for you tweeting that thing that led me and meet - I'm eternally in your debt. Thanks!

In fairness, if I was made to dance with Anne Widdecombe for 3 months, I'd be consuming every illegal substance out there.
