Tim @tim-pb.bsky.social · 19/08/2026What we need is an independent dashboard for all the basics. Government A won’t prepare because the reward will be reaped by Government B so no votes. The dashboard would show when a policy/budget makes an indicator go red. So the votes would be in not breaking preparation. 160
Tim @tim-pb.bsky.social · 15/08/2026Agree. The underlying problem remains the same - social media is not compulsory. It no longer serves us, we serve it. If we paid monthly, most of us would have already moved our accounts to ones with more filters and control. I did 3 years ago with no regrets. We need to expose the real cost of SM. 000
Tim @tim-pb.bsky.social · 03/07/2026I hope your husband put up at least a token of protest before getting up at 4:30. Thank you both for the gentle kiss of dawn. 121
Tim @tim-pb.bsky.social · 20/06/2026Sitting with your descendants in 20 years talking about the old days ….. and this is about a guy who always did the exact opposite of what he promised. This is what happened when he promised to drain the swamp. 000
Tim @tim-pb.bsky.social · 15/06/2026Worth trying one of these for ebooks and audio books www.kobo.com xigxag.co.uk 000
Tim @tim-pb.bsky.social · 15/06/2026As we are north or the boarder we need to abide by the Scottish rules. So it would be the sixteenth quadrant that is in Nidd or more historically Niddrie (EH16) so may need to do a reversal 140
Tim @tim-pb.bsky.social · 14/06/2026Do I detect an active mind on a Sunday evening in an uninspiring hotel… maybe I spent too much time travelling for work, but Love what you do 110

Tim @tim-pb.bsky.social · 01/06/2026There was one on the drive of a cottage near Bath. Every Sunday morning it would be washed and polished. In the afternoon it would be loaded with a rug and torch, the gates would be opened, wife would stand in road and ever so slowly it would reverse out. It would normally return an hour later. 000
Tim @tim-pb.bsky.social · 06/05/2026After pressing ‘not now’ the message ‘would you like to buy a new blade for for saw’ 010
Tim @tim-pb.bsky.social · 26/04/2026Democracy holding ? Looking from the outside it’s like the story of frogs sitting in water as it comes to the boil. And still you are all talking about the emperors new clothes. 000
Tim @tim-pb.bsky.social · 14/03/2026Years ago I shared a house in Milton Keynes with a lady that several wardrobes full of blouses. She would regularly fall asleep on the train home from London, miss the stop and awake somewhere north. Wait for the first train back to London in the morning buy a new blouse and go to work ! 000

Tim @tim-pb.bsky.social · 11/03/2026We are surrounded by radio waves but can’t hear anything without a receiver to tune into a specific frequency. Radios use a crystal as a reference to tune into a specific frequency. Maybe you just happen to be attuned to a frequency that is particularly useful? 000
Tim @tim-pb.bsky.social · 03/03/2026Thanks for dropping by our fluffy bit of cloud. You are always welcome to join us in a little reflective contemplation. 010
Tim @tim-pb.bsky.social · 24/02/2026The beauty of BlueSky is the ability to block those who don’t want to understand. Good bye. 000
Tim @tim-pb.bsky.social · 08/02/20262 - makes you want to go through the doorway- perfect for a cover. 010
Tim @tim-pb.bsky.social · 20/08/2025@valentinatoth.bsky.social #edfringe #FatalFlower If you can possibly get a ticket, go see Fatal Flower. Valentina commands more talent in her one person show than the whole of some other production companies combined. A pure delight. 010

Tim @tim-pb.bsky.social · 31/07/2025You have started a trend, just seen a guy playing the role of a vicar spend an hour on stage with radically different socks. 010
Tim @tim-pb.bsky.social · 30/07/2025@edinburghminute.bsky.social @edfringe.bsky.social The fine city of Edinburgh has said goodbye to students, rolled back the carpet, filled fridges with food & drink, put up lights, synchronised schedules, cream of theatrical talent arrives… Standby Curtain … We are go for EdFringe 2025 Previews. 🎭 020
Tim @tim-pb.bsky.social · 27/07/2025A self centred execution of privilege that seems diametrically opposed to his position. Yet another bishop demonstrating lack of ability to lead. The church hierarchy seems to be all out of Christianity. 010
Tim @tim-pb.bsky.social · 27/07/2025A self centred execution of privilege that seems diametrically opposed to his position. Yet another bishop demonstrating lack of ability to lead. Christianity is not safe in church! 000
Tim @tim-pb.bsky.social · 15/07/2025Already spent my budget booking tickets for #edfringe2025 but “The End is Near” #endisneartheplay is Ticking all the right boxes so just had to buy a ticket. Boxes “Tick, Tick, Tick….” 152
Tim @tim-pb.bsky.social · 15/07/2025Are there not millions of seeds waiting patiently in parched soil for a cloud to pass by, to release a single drop of water so they can start to grow. The impact of our interactions are not always known but can be huge. 030
Tim @tim-pb.bsky.social · 11/07/2025#bloomscroll can’t decide if this counts as a bloom, it’s tiny and doing its best. Part of my effort to “Notice the subtle” 020
Tim @tim-pb.bsky.social · 05/07/2025Random thoughts: (1) In Edinburgh today there is lady sat behind a table with a sign saying “American Apologies” would you wish that she speaks for herself, the US government or nation? (2) 60 year old American Teacher says to Daughter, “No you don’t remember” does this mean we are now ‘post Truth’ 010
Tim @tim-pb.bsky.social · 05/07/2025We are meant to feel more content when we can see a natural source of food and water from our home. Think I am settling on costal as well, or at least with a stream or lake. Happy hermit home hunting 🐚 220
Tim @tim-pb.bsky.social · 05/07/2025Dogs could certainly be a large part of the answer, feeling the call to explore some of the Scottish islands this summer. Do you think you are a forest, mountain, or costal hermit? 110
Tim @tim-pb.bsky.social · 04/07/2025As responsibilities fade away and the possibility of becoming a hermit comes close, there is another question. Are our experiences real if not shared? Or at least do we need some way to calibrate our thoughts with another? 110
Tim @tim-pb.bsky.social · 23/06/2025The Fae rest easy after solstice celebrations, she who contemplates in the tower this morningtide is familiar and walks lightly on the Tor. 000
Tim @tim-pb.bsky.social · 10/06/2025‘Managers’ should have contingency in their plan so by not using 8.3% of plan time suggests they have set themselves surprisingly low objectives which they are barely able to meet🤔 000
Tim @tim-pb.bsky.social · 05/06/2025Apparently the Emperor has a new suit made from the finest thread. And something about a child catcher ! 010
Tim @tim-pb.bsky.social · 04/06/2025Loving your posts, spent a few days coming the other direction from Glastonbury across to old Sarum, stone henge etc. Great to slow down sufficiently to hear the land speak. There be wisdom in that there land! 010
Tim @tim-pb.bsky.social · 03/06/2025Today was the launch of the Edinburgh fringe programme, loving this years themes : Rebellious women, The paranormal, The apocalypse, Nostalgia, Queer joy. Living with illness, Rave and club culture. 000
Tim @tim-pb.bsky.social · 31/05/2025Aged 18, I went on a ‘date’, she turned up wearing black lace gloves, a little unusual even post New Romantics. Turned out she had been painting a stable and was covered in black (creosote) paint. I probably would not have noticed, but remembered the gloves today. 🍷to working hands. 010
Tim @tim-pb.bsky.social · 23/05/2025Congratulations on your first year. Love your work and the magical web of connection you weave. The moment of pause you provide us to synchronise with the earths heart chakra is very special. Thank you for those early morning climbs and wish you much success. 020
Tim @tim-pb.bsky.social · 19/05/2025If song lyrics are ingested as training data into a large language model, the model can support generation of new material, translation of original lyrics into a different language or simply for retrieval of original lyrics. All can be distributed to public users of the model in any jurisdiction. 100
Tim @tim-pb.bsky.social · 19/05/2025It’s a change to the ‘definition’ of ownership. In the analogy we still own the house but any AI company can sell guided tours of it at will. We may still hold copyright, but AI companies can distribute our work at will. Any contract with a publisher would become meaningless. 100
