the trouble with mia

Tory-hating, Brexit-denying, nature-loving book nerd. Inept gardener, sketcher, knitter and music-maker. Queen of lazy town, prone to aimless wittering. Pro-independence for all who want it. Proud to live in Wales. Very sweary but only at the wrong kind of people, and they know who they are.

@npub1g0t…tvm4 I saw this headline earlier on. How exactly are they going to square that with the variance in legal systems, not to mention visiting privileges for families? Or are they going to rent an island somewhere and put all the people on indefinite sentences on there? Variation on a theme of prison ships.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
Savanta asked 2,000 to give them one word to describe the Conservative government. Here's the word cloud they created.

@npub1y98…gke7 Hi Annie 👋
Thanks to the regular updates from @npub1ece…4ya4 I'm well aware of the dark sarcasm required to cope with your own daily onslaught of hard-right atrocities. Cheers 🍺

2023-09-26 10:53:07

Well, that's it. I've ordered some beer. I'm beginning to think being drunk by 2pm is a valid coping mechanism for living in this country.

@npub1g0t…tvm4 Yes, and that's an important point, but calling for a Minister for Men is substantially more offensive than that. The *entire* system is set up to benefit men or to ensure they're given more credence, whether it be interacting with the law, medicine or any other sphere.

@npub1g0t…tvm4 There's an absolutely *excoriating* takedown of Theresa May's book in the Guardian today. I'd not normally read political memoir reviews but this one is worth every second.

@npub1g0t…tvm4 We must all learn to sleep in a shallow puddle of ice water without contracting hypothermia, and all work will need to be done from underground caves cooled by natural springs.
There. Sorted.

@npub1gxt…j9na @npub1g0t…tvm4 Sorry but I don't agree. It's really, really simple. Pick an instance (any one, it really doesn't matter), find some people you know, talk to some other people you know, follow hashtags that interest you.
The end.
Apart from the hashtag following, it's *exactly* the same as Twitter, without the trolling and desperate begging for followers every Friday because your ego depends on an arbitrary number of people you mostly forget instantly.

@npub16hm…xt0c Blimey! Good job you asked - it actually *is* a word 😬
I just thought it sounded dumb. I'll have to edit that 😂

Finally feeling equilibrated (I know it's not a word, don't throw your earnestness at me) after a *very* slow start.
I honestly don't know how non-tea drinkers cope - coffee is not remotely the same.
