Ukrainian Mountaineer and Combat Medic Who Saved Many Lives Dies in Battle Vlodymyr Vasylyshyn, 33, had signed up for a ski mountaineering competition on the day of his death.

"His greatest goal was Mount Manaslu in the Himalayas. He had plans to attempt Manaslu in 2022, but joined the army instead when Russia invaded Ukraine."

War steals futures. It kills dreams along with the dreamers.

Fuck Putin.

Slava Ukraini.

Waiting for David Byrne to do a little song and dance for my amusement.

If we're going to play this game I suggest we ban all the yanks from OnlyFans.

The gall to say this when you lead a party whose vote is propped up by pensioners.

We need an investigation into why so many former Lib Dems get radicalised.

Feel like it probably has something to do with seeing yourself as an outsider to the 'mainstream' parties and shifting your views to remain iconoclastic (in your mind at least) as the mainstream shifts.

I fear this may be my fault. I got too happy.

My pet theory is that part of the reason ChatGPT had such huge uptake is because the major players have spent years degrading the quality of their own search engines to the point where a product that recreates the speed at which you used to be able to find the same information seems revelatory.

Officially not the worst team in Premier League history, Matt Goodwin's not an MP, I go on holiday in 1 week and I'm seeing David Byrne on Monday.

Pretty content right now.

I will never forgive Your Party members for failing to give 'The Many' slate the fewest seats.

Can't wait for the ITV drama where Toby Jones plays Hoyle and we get to see him intercepting an accidental text while feeding his tortoise.

Reminding me of those early polls for Change UK that had them doing similar numbers.

There's a psephology thesis in 'Can any positive word in front of "UK" poll 7%'

Mine only makes noise to wake me up in the morning or if (God forbid) one of three people were to call me after 10pm with some kind of an emergency.

I would have destroyed it with a hammer if it binged every time I get a WhatsApp, which is how my parents operate ๐Ÿคฆ

I must request that you stop putting on so many interesting talks. I'm never going to get any work done round the house if this carries on.
