Rufous @rufous.bsky.social · 26/09/2026We have proudly fertilised the land for the majority of our time on this island. History lessons told of centuries chamber-pots being emptied onto the heads of passing pedestrians. Not to mention the horse-shit. The less-golden era of free public facilities must have lasted less than 40 years. 000

As many of you know I took in a young Ukrainian woman under the Homes for Ukraine scheme. As part of that process, soon after she arrived we were visited by the local authority rep and a Fire Brigade rep. 13455199
Rufous @rufous.bsky.social · 16/09/2026I'll always try to better understand the inherited fear that causes so many Jewish families to keep packed cases by the front-door 'just in case'. But I worry about the impact of these years of Netanyahu apologists trying to silence even friendly but critical voices as "anti-Semitism". 100

Rufous @rufous.bsky.social · 14/09/2026All for this. Dansak and Lentejas are two of mankind's greatest achievements When I were a lad you only ever saw lentils on the art table at school alongside tubs of dried beans and pasta shapes. Then at some point in the 90s people realised you could actually eat them... 010
Rufous @rufous.bsky.social · 13/09/2026Another F1 race ruined by stupid regs applied overzealously by stupid race stewards. Am old enough to remember when there were no safety cars, let alone in-race penalties. If Mansell gave Senna a lift back to the pits today they'd probably both get a points deduction. 100

Rufous @rufous.bsky.social · 08/09/2026Hamas committed an atrocity on October 7th. 828 Israeli civilians slaughtered. 36 of them children. Over the three years since, Netanyahu has killed 74,500 Palestinian civilians, of which 21 *every day* have been children. He has no exit strategy to prevent either from continuing indefinitely. 120

Rufous @rufous.bsky.social · 07/09/2026Listened to Somnapolis for the first time in a while this morning. I think it may be a perfect album. The instrumentation as beautiful as the song-writing.
