Dear Reform-voting ladies…

Do you know you’re voting for a party that wants to:

❌ Scrap the Equality Act - your legal protection against workplace discrimination & unequal pay

❌ Kill the Online Safety Act - the law protecting you from revenge porn

❌ Vote AGAINST the bill to stop workplace sexual harassment

❌ Stack the party with anti-abortion politicians - some opposing termination even in cases of rape

❌ Push “pro-family” policies that put women back in the home

I guess the question is…

Do you hate immigrants more than you love your rights?

@NintendoUK @NintendoUK How do we qualify for an invite? I’ve had NSO for years, well over 50 hours game play, I get marketing emails. Yet still no invite 😡 and every other retailer has already sold out of stock. I’m not at all happy.

Protect Pinewood TV Studios From Closure - Sign the Petition! https://t.co/83CyRK2Tl7 via @UKChange

Tricky as if the work isn’t there how do you keep studios running? I hope this is a temporary closure, not permanent. The film/TV industry is going through difficult times.

@MichelleMone 🤣🤣 set the record straight… are you kidding us?

A good start would be hand back the money you were paid, for which your company delivered substandard PPE.

@antallan @markoftheD They were my definitive, I don’t remember John Austin and Carolyn Jones but I’ll take a look at them.

@HackedOffHugh just watched Paddington 2 again. Once more am totally impressed with your second ascendancy. We loved your work in The Gentleman, Florence Foster Jenkins and we’re intending to see Wonka shortly to see your Oompah Loompah.

I do enjoy a little Sunday morning play around with @AdobeExpress…

You’ve got to wonder about the success of your rebranding if every article you read says “on X, formerly known as Twitter”

A lot of companies still have the old Twitter logo linking to their profile on X. We just don’t seem to love X in the same way.

@JaneyGodley @bmay @PennyMordaunt what were you thinking? You’ve trashed the country. We’ll not stand up and fight for you and the rest of your party.
(PS I think @JaneyGodley ’s version is way better)

@BBCSounds @IndiaRakusen Only just discovered this series. Definitely worth a listen if you haven’t yet.

I feel a sorrow and anger for all the women killed in witch hunts over the centuries. Proud to be a crone.

@Cumberbitches oh my Zoolander 2… what was he thinking? 🫣🤭

Last image of #MahsaAmini alive moments before being severely beaten for showing hair from under her hijab. In a coma for two days before dying from her head injuries Sept 16th.

Her name has become the most shared hashtag of all time. A name that sparked 11 months of ongoing nationwide and global protests.

1 year anniversary will be highly significant.

The countdown started.

T-minus 1 month.

@grumpwitch Those old ASCII game guides are still out there. We still play Nintendo DS Dragon Quest games and the guides are very useful. GameFaq or NeoSeeker have them in abundance

@BleakExpPlay @tomallencomedy We came to the matinee today (hope we weren’t a shit matinee audience), thoroughly enjoyed the show. @tomallencomedy you were brilliant, of course.

@RadioX I’d like to see @NoelGallagher headlining. I think he’s doing his best work as High Flying Birds

@KevinTurveyRIP @sophielouisecc @metpoliceuk @metpoliceuk under Cressida Dick’s regime weren’t going to investigate. Until it got too embarrassing not too.
We have to hope the Met’s days of inherently partisan, racist and misogynist behaviour, since McPherson report was published, are over. I’m waiting to see.

@cincopedia @latimes Delighted you got past the angst to give us Schmicago. The songs have stuck with us, we’re often listening to them, singing along.

Anyone I meet who loves musicals I’m saying watch Schmigadoon & Schmicago. They’re wonderful. There’s such craft in your work, it shines through.
