I really do think this place is more aggressively reactionary than I've ever known it. It's bringing out the worst in good people & the trolls are just loving life.

Cheers Elon. I guess... 🤷🏻‍♂️

See, this wouldn't have happened if Humanist were still playing support... 👀

Rock band Jane's Addiction show ended abruptly in Boston on Friday, Sept. 13, after Perry Farrell punched Dave Navarro in the face mid-set.

@whyellokayleigh @supertanskiii @1neilc1 It's not really my place to guess so I'll just say that I've spent my life spotting undiagnosed ADHD in others. (Ironically, the very first time I saw Tom Meighan interviewed being one of them.) Hopefully someday tanskiii will look up the H part to educate herself on the subject.

@whyellokayleigh @supertanskiii @1neilc1 Was trying to explain my personal experience of actually diagnosed ADHD to her above tweet when she pulled a gaslight and blocked me.

[Not That Andrew @adbNorthernSoul]

@whyellokayleigh @supertanskiii @1neilc1 Curious what her answer is if one is posted but she blocked me for apparently being "scum and a DV excuser" for simply pointing out she got a few facts wrong.

Can say it's possible to be diagnosed but not officially recognised if your diagnosis predates NHS recognition of ADHD.

[Not That Andrew @adbNorthernSoul]

@themodernage85 @supertanskiii @1neilc1 Annnd she blocked me. 🤷🏻‍♂️

Blue ticks make for great gaslighting powers. Although, if everyone just blocked each other this place *would* probably be much nicer, eh? 🙃

/Insert echo effect here...

[Not That Andrew @adbNorthernSoul]

Now, that said...

I've seen you call out many people for the exact way you've behaved here. Really sad to see you not practicing what you preach.

I'm not paying Elon for a blue tick unlike yourself but I see you're making the most of the gaslighting advantages it gives you. 🤷🏻‍♂️

[Not That Andrew @adbNorthernSoul]

Doesn't matter how polite you are, she really can't cope with the most basic discussion. Just throws up a post & blocks you before you have chance to reply.

@supertanskiii can throw out accusations but don't you dare try to engage in conversation when you see wild inaccuracies.

[Not That Andrew @adbNorthernSoul]

I knew all of the above except that you were undiagnosed ADHD. I was diagnosed before the NHS recognised it & you should've seen the difference simply eating an orange made to my behaviour.

There are huge inaccuracies in the police report, nevermind media, according to Vikki.

[Not That Andrew @adbNorthernSoul]

@themodernage85 @supertanskiii @1neilc1 Don't disagree, just hoped pointing out the inaccuracies politely might get through better. Know she gets lots of extreme misogynistic abuse & this is a particularly emotive subject for her. I can see why she'd jump to conclusions, just don't think she'd be so all in if she knew.

When everyone's done signing petitions about Oasis/Ticketmaster, would you kindly consider adding your name to get this up to the 100k mark? A few hundred thousand died over the last 14 years which doesn't get even a fraction of the attention it should:

That's all.

No tagging - hashes or individuals.

No attempt at getting eyes on me or my account.

This is why I never tweet anymore. This site has enormous potential to be good in people's lives & also on a lager scale. But right now is a cancer.

That really is all. 👋

I was fortunate enough to get two Oasis tickets in the presale for £129 each (well my brother got them for me). I’m high up and towards the back but that’s good enough for me - it’s Oasis, I’d watch them from the roof if I had to!

However, having seen what my mates are going through to get tickets and having read reports about dynamic pricing I’m worried that this whole thing will cast a shadow over what should be a huge celebration.

I don’t know who’s responsible, but it sounds like we need a statement to clear this all up. Whether it’s from Live Nation, Ticketmaster or Ignition Management, it would be good to hear the other side of the story and what’s being done to get as many tickets to fans as possible. There is time to correct this. Maybe we could even have a report of how many reseller tickets have been cancelled a retuned to the pool?

We’ve been waiting a long time for this. I hope as we start the new working week, we’ll hear some good news and pick up where we left off.

These concerts will be amazing. Let’s pack the venues with fans.

[Not That Andrew @adbNorthernSoul]

@supertanskiii @1neilc1 Honestly tanskiii, I don't for a moment believe you'd be posting the reports if you knew the details.

Tom was undiagnosed ADHD. His now wife pointed out to the cops that she'd been the one to injure him, not the other way around.

This one is shades of grey & complex.
