Seeking and speaking truth since 1979

[Gus @Pinemash]

Sensationalism and exaggeration is a tool of the enemy. Its purpose is to disempower the individual, leaving them feeling insignificant, isolated and hopeless.

Be careful not to fall into the trap of doing their dirty work for them. Simple truth before all else.

@davidkurten I'm fairly confident Bill Shakespeare was a legitimate person. However it should be known that then Vaccine Deployment Minister Nadhim Zahawi's former Yougov business partner is named Stephan Shakespeare neé Wukowski having taken his Warwickshire wife's surname. Coincidence?

@FatEmperor I saw the History Debunked video this morning and looked into it. Quite staggering.

@wiseconnector I'm ok with this

@fenlandgent Ratcliffe I presume? Not long for this world.

@RichPrideaux @LordOtter That's what mine's for, plus a cheeky Leatherman Micra

@steonthesea On a related note, iconic 1970s movie villain Dunning Kruger is renowned in scientific circles for having conducted thorough and extensive research into the inverse correlation between perceived and actual intelligence commonly found in the human species.
One to look into?

@SartorialThug Sadly, due to both the ill-timed temporal disturbance and a lack of forethought with regard to prophylactics, my very own captive strumpet was nowhere to be seen or felt upon regaining consciousness. Distribution of ovoid confectionary to our offspring was deemed a priority.

@Bigshirtlesscol From a single factory:

CNC operator with seriously bad teeth - Nanny McPhee
Sheet Metal team leader with surname Legg - Lego
Son of the above - Duplo
Ancient Ream and Clean guy with a hunch so bad he could have easily been a foot taller than he appeared - Photo Finish

@sar247365 @BuildBackBroken @SartorialThug In fact I was so revolted by the whole scene I comprehensively reinvented my career path to work with hairy-arsed sheet metal smashers in the East Midlands and must say I've never been happier!

@sar247365 @BuildBackBroken @SartorialThug As someone who worked in the London web media shitshow of the mid-2000s I can assure you it was closer to reality than you can possibly dare to imagine.

@Beeestonia @KateBeckinsale @BAFTA Apologies if this has already been mentioned but the mural opposite Tesco is a wonderfully striking memorial to a much loved son of Beeston.

@DickDelingpole Many happy returns!

@LordOtter I can't lay my hands on a photo from '85 but it must have been largely equivalent to my look for '87 as captured in this Florentine portrait from our great Italian tour of that year. Good times.

Growing up is...

When the love of your life announces "I need a pound tonight" and you realise your daughter lost a tooth today and the fairy is due.

Today @littlebluepingu and I celebrate 13 years officially together. It's been difficult at times but here's to many more years in store🥂 💞

@_bobs__ @Bigshirtlesscol Ha! I didn't notice it had changed. Always confused the hell out of me back in the day.
