No triangulation against fascism

I am once again left wondering who they think their median voter is

I only read the phrase "hero voters" for the first time the days ago and I'm already on the mood to tar and feather anyone who uses it unironically

Starmer needs to sort. this. the. f*ck. out.

Dan O'Brien @danopedia.bsky.social · 02/02/2025

Turns out he did mean most of it and we're so f*cked as a result. These idiots are going to triangulate themselves in knots for five years then hand the country to the far right aren't they.

Dems should be much better on conflict. Just going on Fox every day and talking about how Trump is just a puppet of Musk or whoever. You *know* he'll be watching and it will drive him nuts

On the plus side, only 62 days to go until the start of the #CountyChampionship

Well this is not going as I'd hoped #Washes #AUSvENG

No need to follow the news closely if you just assume that whatever the issue or challenge is that the government will do the stupidest thing in response.

"It's the children who come first" and that's why we're making sure that more teachers than ever are giving up the profession because they can make more money and have a better work life balance doing *checks notes* almost literally anything else.

So they're rebranding spam bots and bringing them in house?

What is technically a W but feels like an L? I'll start...

Duolingo 1000 day streak. Yes, I've been doing this for a thousand days. No, I'm not confident I could handle most basic interactions in French. Même si, bonne journée mes amis!

Incredible that Labour are treating an American far right billionaire trying to buy the next general election as just part of the natural order of things and any steps to prevent this as "political interference". Proper status quo Stockholm syndrome...

The reaction to the winter fuel thing is so interesting. Watching the media show that it is possible to get exercised about hardship but only when it's a favoured demographic.

Remind me why it would be legal for a non UK citizen or resident to donate to a UK political party when, to pick a country at random, it would be illegal in the US?

Remember when they introduced an energy price cap and then every time the price of energy went up they just raised the cap? That was a lark, I muse, as I watch the smart meter spin line a top when we try to use the hot water...

Starmer and Reeves in Downing Street mashing the Toryism button harder and harder and wondering why nothing is changing

UKGov: Why do we have such a persistent productivity problem in this country? Also UKGov: *squashes the earnings of public servants for decades*

Update: No response to a very polite letter to my MP. So f*ck these guys all the way to the next election. A friend got a response saying "we will consider 6th form pay at a later date" cool cool so pay them fairly in the meantime eh?

If Labour keep offering Tory-lite it should be no surprise to them when voters go back to the real thing

Hey I've got an idea! We could fill the Bake Off shaped hole in our life by watching Masterchef! Now to take a big ol' gulp of coffee and catch up with the latest news... #GBBO

Dan O'Brien @danopedia.bsky.social · 02/12/2024

A letter to your MPs would be nice at this point folks too

Dan O'Brien @danopedia.bsky.social · 02/12/2024

So fun fact, the teachers unions accepted a pay deal that excluded 6th form colleges and are now not striking in solidarity with 6th form teachers. Got mine, f*ck your solidarity, eh? Also, f*ck the Labour Party for this too. Just going to Tory their way through the next four years.

tfw your doc insists you still have a month's worth of medication left (you don't because they screwed it up the last two times) and now they want a liver function test before they'll rectify their error but you can't get one for a fortnight smdh

Can't believe Dylan sent his twin brother that has never baked in his life to do the final for him smdh #GBBO

Dan O'Brien @danopedia.bsky.social · 26/11/2024

So, while they're busy with the showstopper, we need to agree what we're doing for the watchalong next Tuesday? #GBBO

Dan O'Brien @danopedia.bsky.social · 26/11/2024

Difference here is that in every other week you just don't have to be the worst. Finals pressure hits different #GBBO

If Dylan doesn't win I'm required to bake a cake for my wife. I have literally never baked anything in my life... #GBBO

Morning! Still news/socials avoiding. Main update is I've been channelling every spare moment into training for rock climbing and it's a miracle I've not injured myself. Oh, and the cricket match in Perth is funny. Over and out for now. 🏏

Oh FFS he's already everywhere on the timeline. Not sure SM is the place for me for the next 4 years.

It's worse than that. They like it. He gives them permission to indulge their base instincts. He shows them there is no societal penalty. They aspire to him.

Dan O'Brien @danopedia.bsky.social · 06/11/2024

The media won this election for him by laundering every statement into something that sounded moderate. They literally described mass deportations as a housing policy FFS!
