X isn't just lies and racism. It's stupidity too. Massive fucking stupidity.

I was here back in late 2023, when it had just started, but I lost impetus !

I think I may spend more time here X has completely gone, full of lies, liars and deniers.

According to the far right pub landlord, Bluesky is full of 'wrong uns' 👀🤣 Don't think so.

Interesting day. Visited local Prison this morning with colleagues to discuss prisoner rehabilitation in the voluntary sector and then home to a zoom call with the Prime Minister, who has just arrived at G7 summit 🤣

Mrs M is far more organised than me. For our Scotland trip, she has sourced a map of Lewis and Harris and planned possible trips. Please note the red dot laser pointer, used in her briefing to me 😂🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

A reminder that the real patriots aren’t the ones tying flags to lampposts or standing around outside 3-star hotels. They’re the ones who get stuck in within their local communities, the volunteer, the football coach, the litter picker and myriad others.

Sneaking a giant screen into the flagshagger march is one of the funniest things @ledbydonkeys.org have ever done. "STAY HYDRATED" 😂🤣😂

The utter evil I've seen on Twitter / X this last few days on both UK and US politics. It's bloody depressing. Silence is complicity.

Alex Merry @icecoldal.bsky.social · 16/05/2026

It's great to see you and to see you feel like this. I'm shouting into the void on X, it's soul destroying to see how people support all this xx

Chatgpt can do some lovely things. I asked it to sharpen up and improve this photo of my Dad, in his army days (1956-58). Amazing results.

Our little cat, Eesa went to sleep 2 weeks ago, she'd had enough. Last week, 5 days ago, little Panther came to us from Cats Protection. He's gorgeous and whilst he's a little high maintenance at the moment, we are already madly in love with him

Went to see my Mum yesterday, hadn't seen her for a week or 2. She doesn't know about my heart condition, I ain't telling her. But I needed to see her. I rarely think to have a photo together, but I felt compelled to yesterday. I suspect this will be more valuable to me, one day.

Thanks Jen, appreciate your kind remarks. Been a tough week. Hope you're ok x

In late February, I decided to get fitter and started running, eating healthier etc. After a recent heart CT, I've been diagnosed with Coronary Artery disease. No more booze, healthy food only and lots of run/walking now. There's literally no other option now.

"white people are really disgusting" Ermmm...... Okaaaaaay. That's racist.

Alex Merry @icecoldal.bsky.social · 14/03/2026

To document my fitness journey, I've reluctantly and cringing, done some photos of myself, no shirt. I can monitor progress and changes during the process. Problem is - they always look like someone quoted as saying "it wasn't me who done them murders guv", when their photos are found post-arrest.

Doing couch to 5k. Harder to shift the belly than it used to be. Damn the ageing process.

I need to spend more time here ! Hope you're ok, Imps 😁

I thought getting 2 likes on here was pisspoor, until I went back on X and started questioning Trump..😂

I’ve always expected there to be the silent shitheads. But the high volume stupidity on display in these United States is like watching drowning people refuse a life raft because they don’t like the color.

Murphy on Bovino: "That was a bone-chilling interview. I was shaking while I was listening to it, in large part bc it takes just an unbelievable amount of gall to lie to the American public. Everybody saw that video ... it should freak the public out that the Trump administration lies this easily"

Yes, I think I need a detox. At least here seems to be more sane !

Alex Merry @icecoldal.bsky.social · 25/01/2026

I need to spend more time here, after 2 weeks of using X. Too many liars, covering up for Trump, for the murders of his regime. Covering up his lies. Too many stand silent, unwilling to upset their friends. Too many, sucking up to Musk. I'm sick of the complicity, the untruths, the fakery.

Alex Merry @icecoldal.bsky.social · 19/01/2026

I've bobbed over from Twitter (X, if we absolutely must) and I can't see any racism, religious bigotry, homophobia, transphobia, MAGA supporters, UK Trump appeasers, here. I may set up camp here. All welcome.

There's clearly something exciting in Nuneaton, that we aren't being told about. I feel a conspiracy theory coming on. #area57

George Harrison at his home, Friar Park in Henley-on-Thames, England, in 1975. He is wrapped in a Hare Krishna shawl which has the mantra "Hare Rama" and the Om symbol printed on it. This reflects his long-standing devotion to Hinduism and transcendental meditation.

Bathroom pull light has broken after 20+ years. Ordered a replacement online and it's now delayed, due to Amazon having transport issues, given the weather. Currently, evening trips to bathroom involve candles and it's all a bit Bram Stoker.

The difference is that on X, JD Vance gets virtual blowies from his mentally ill disciples. On Bluesky, he's sent packing. There's the gap.
