I'm nobody, doing nothing, but very much enjoying the cookers and cooker related tweets.

@TechLayoffLover I really think you just make this stuff up.

[Seán Ono Lennon @seanonolennon]

I am against violence. I am against celebrating violence. I’m praying for peace. I’m praying for healing. I’m praying for the family, especially the children. I know what they’re going through. I’ve been through it.

I’m deeply scared for this country. The way some people are reacting on both sides is dangerous. If I had one wish right now it would be for everyone to please just step back and take a breath and remember we are all just sophisticated apes trying to coexist on a rock hurtling through space.

If we cannot tolerate polite and reasoned disagreement then there is no hope for our society.

There is a famous quote falsely attributed to Voltaire that however does sum up a principle of enlightenment philosophy, ‘I disagree with what you say, but I would die to defend your right to say it.’

The ideas of people like John Locke and Voltaire and Thomas Paine are what lead to the American Revolution which then inspired the French Revolution. They introduced the World to the idea that individual rights were important and should be protected from Monarchs (tyrants and dictators), and ultimately led to the idea that a country should be governed by its people NOT by the Church and NOT by a King.

If citizens don’t protect and respect each other’s right to disagree, then we cannot have a democracy. If we do not protect our right to disagree then we’ll get violence.

We do NOT want a society where violence is the way we win arguments, because then nobody wins. Everyone loses.

We are ALL losing right now. The whole society is losing together. Losing to violence. It’s unbelievably sad. It took so much work to get us here. We can’t throw it all away like spoilt children.

I did NOT agree with Charlie Kirk’s views on MANY important topics. I know he helped get Trump elected and people hate him for that. But he was a conservative Christian. What do you expect a conservative Christian to believe? How can those views surprise you? He argued those views calmly, reasonably, and considerately as far as I’ve seen.

But no matter what he did not deserve this. His wife did not deserve this. His kids did NOT deserve to have their world torn apart!

The way some people are being so cold and uncaring and even celebrating is disturbing and repugnant to me. It is making me physically ill. If you are celebrating the murder of a non-violent man for his opinions then you are NOT the better person. Look in the mirror. Imagine telling his kids how you feel. Step back. Take a breath. Remember we are all humans. We are all just flickers of consciousness in an endless eternity. Love IS the answer. I really mean it.

We are quite literally ALL in this together. If this ship sinks we ALL drown. Look around you. Everyone you see is a shipmate. We have to figure this out. We have no other choice.

@DustyPee I hear you on this one. I recently bought a set. I've worked out you need to cook at a much lower temperature, and if the food sticks and messes up the pan, use Barkeepers Friend to clean it. I got some on Amazon. It's magic!

I'm pleased that my For You feed has moved on from yesterday's alien invasion to Bitcoin enthusiasts celebrating. This feels a lot more comfy.

@APompliano I had plenty of people mock me and my accountant tell me to get out before I lost everything. Diamond hands win! Such a great day!

[Ali Way @alispam]

I felt the same watching it happen!

@angry_eyebrow Wine and cheese for dinner for me. Happy with my life choices. Enjoy yours.

[Ali Way @alispam]

@JackxJewell Nailed it!

[Ali Way @alispam]

@DustyPee Wow, bloody hell! I have a few smaller tanks and now I'm going to put a smart meter thingo on them and see what I'm spending. That's nuts!

[Ali Way @alispam]

@DustyPee I learned that word a few years ago. Stray cat, tail, I still feel wobbly inside when that memory comes up, and you just made it come up. I am going to cuddle my kitty ... ooof, that's not even gonna help.

[Ali Way @alispam]

@angry_eyebrow Don't. Just, don't.

[Ali Way @alispam]

@angry_eyebrow You what, mate? Sheesh.

[Ali Way @alispam]

@FootscraysFine1 I just turned my heater off. A sad moment. No more swims for a long time.

[Ali Way @alispam]

@Mr_stiernan7563 @angijones @metpoliceuk Is this Melbourne, Australia, though?

[Ali Way @alispam]

@dresdendoll @hipstergeddon I must try this one. I've heard it's amazing.

[Ali Way @alispam]

@hipstergeddon I love that stuff. My addiction.

[Ali Way @alispam]

@DustyPee I love this. I had a debacle with Samsung over a dryer. Somehow I got the dryer and the refund. I give that a 5 star review.

[Ali Way @alispam]

@DustyPee You're gonna need a bigger tank ...

[Ali Way @alispam]

@DustyPee Is this better than the good one in Bell Street, Coburg?

[Ali Way @alispam]

@hipstergeddon That's awful. I'm so close to where he fell.
