I just typo'ed "Community Engagement" into "Community Enragement" and I really think that sums up social media in 2026 #CommunityEnragement

When I first moved to Scotland from the US 18 years ago, people would ask me, "Why would you move HERE??" Like they couldn't believe I would choose to leave a place like the US to live in Scotland. ...Nobody asks me that anymore.

This makes me giggle. Did the felon really believe there would be no consequences to the way immigrants are being treated in this country? Nobody wants to come here.

🚨 Last week MPs from across the political spectrum demanded Palantir be kicked out of the NHS. This only happened because thousands of us have pressured MPs & 65,000+ have written to their NHS trust demanding they ditch Palantir. Join us: notopalantir.goodlawproject.org/email-to-tar...

Not sure when it happened, but my backyard bird feeders seem to have gone viral on SiskinTok. I used to get one in a blue moon, now I'm seeing them daily. #Siskin #BirdsOfBluesky #Birding #Birdwatching

A siskin, Carduelis spinus. According to RSPB, the siskin is a small, lively finch, smaller than a Greenfinch. It has a distinctly forked tail and a narrow bill. The male has a streaky yellow-green body and a black crown and bib.

My dog was standing by her bed whining at me and I couldn't figure out what she wanted, and then I noticed her blanket wasn't in her bed so I went and got it and she was like FINALLY and laid down and I tucked her in and now she's happy 😄 #DogsOfBlueSky

Ministers are exploring triggering the break clause in Palantir's NHS contract. I've signed the open letter to Wes Streeting calling on him to get Palantir out of the NHS. If you're in the UK, please sign too.

Our Scottish NHS is wonderful. It's been cradle to grave for my family. It's saved my life 3 times, saved my bairn once, gave my Dad extra years. All free at point of access. No WAY we should hand it over to an English registered and funded political party, LOOK at what they've done to England's.

UK dual nationals, you need to get a UK passport before you travel abroad, or you might not be let back into the country! These new rules are disgraceful. People who have been naturalised are UK citizens, whether they have a UK passport or not.

How are UK passport rules changing for British dual nationals?

Entry requirements to the UK for dual nationals are being overhauled as part of sweeping changes to the immigration system.

💯 this. Fortunately, I mainly have succulents.

Screen shot of a post by Cliff Jerrison. Text reads: It's very hard to maintain mental health because so many coping strategies are based on the idea that your anxiety is unwarranted, and right now needs more of an "okay, extremely warranted but you still gotta water the plants or you'll have fascism AND dead plants" approach

I'm re-watching Schitt's Creek to honor Catherine O'Hara and S1:E5 reminded me of my dad explaining the birds & the bees to me & my older sister. Dumbfounded, she asked: "How many times have you done this?" and I said, "Two. One for me, and one for you." I still prefer to believe that.
