Bluesky is still a work in progress. For a while I got loads of ornithology posts (not the worst thing). Now I’m getting lots of home baking tips.

This should get a Pulitzer. It's going to be an all-time classic.

What an admirably clear statement from the Jewish Leadership Council, especially when all of those involved must surely have been dealing with so many other urgent challenges in safety, security and grief + shock today before having this further divisive and distracting intervention to address too.

“Most British Jewish voices have consistently been clear that they reject Robinson’s bogus claim to be an ally of their community. It is important that we hear that again now.”

David Webb @webb-site.com has been appointed MBE!

Ooh, I got a gong!

I am of course delighted that the UK Government, with its keen interest in Hong Kong affairs, has chosen to recognise my contributions here over the last 27 years by appointing me as a Member of the Order of the British Empire "For services to Raising Standards of Corporate [and] Economic Governance, particularly in Hong Kong". What matters to me most though is how my work is perceived by the people of Hong Kong and beyond, and I’ve been deeply touched by their many tributes over the last few months as I began to withdraw from public life and prepare for my final battle. The honour also means a lot to my family, who have supported me so well along this journey.

Carpe diem, and Ga Yau!

David M. Webb MBE
Founder, Webb-site.com

I’ve often wondered if Richard Brody is just a troll. (He claims Godfather 3 is the masterpiece of the GF trilogy, for example). I’ve only glanced at headlines about the new Wes Anderson film, but the vibes aren’t great. And The French Despatch wasn’t all that.

@skynewsrss.bsky.social it’s bizarre watching this laughable Dominic Cummings interview. How was he ever seen as a brainiac / master of the dark arts? He just seems a bit dim, vague and hate-filled.

TIL that Russell Brand auditioned for the role of Super Hans, which was eventually bagged by @thatmattkingfella.bsky.social That would have killed one of the all-time great comedies. So glad the Spurs fan beat the ‘West Ham fan’.

I had to stop watching SpaceX launches and landings because I couldn't stand all the whooping from the overcaffeinated millennials working there. I guess it's the same kids doing this - often unpaid, according to the article. www.wsj.com/politics/pol...

Donald Trump can’t join in the laughs with the rest of the front pews during the Carter eulogies. He’s such a damaged person. #Carter #Trump #MAGA my ass.

I see that Trump is now calling the Governor of CA ‘Gavin Newscum’ and it’s gone largely unremarked. Crude, puerile name-calling is now just normal.

Only just noticed that McBain is a mash-up of consulting firms McKinsey and Bain. Nothing happens by accident in The Simpsons.
