Richard Warner @richardcwarner.bsky.social · 15/01/2025Just decided to flick onto gb news, haven't watched it for maybe 2 years. They seem to have evolved into an even worse kind of vile. Smelly talking headed men who are misogynistic, homophobic, and basically, vile. Sky and BBC are actually far superior as is ITV and Peston just. 000

Richard Warner @richardcwarner.bsky.social · 29/11/2024Yes, it's comical, but it's also disturbing. To spend $6.2 million on a banana when people are in such distress and poverty.

Richard Warner @richardcwarner.bsky.social · 27/11/2024The U.S. has trade and drug tensions.

Richard Warner @richardcwarner.bsky.social · 27/11/2024In the '80s, I was in a pub with a jukebox playing 45s. Between great tracks, someone queued 3.5 minutes of a guy talking over a drumbeat—odd, I thought. Weeks later, more tracks appeared: guys rambling, often narcissistic or sexist, over basic beats. It was rap—my unexpected introduction to it. 010
