Why you should spend less time here + on no account use the site's 'For You' tab (most people's default) unless you're determined to descend into the cess pit of evil that is the depraved consciousness of the site's owner.

@LloydsBank I contacted you on June 16 and spent ages on the phone trying to sort out my dad's S&S ISA account, which I have financial power of attorney over. The guy was helpful but heard nothing back since. Given that I'm not a Lloyds customer myself, how can I follow this up?

@HCTSong @JamesMcMurtry @newwestrecords It's great, isn't it? I wrote about the album elsewhere. Not adding content here.

@FiveLeavesBooks @kazbel I got it.

@rwilliams1947 Cancelled my subscription today. Know I left it too long. All the President's man.

Poking my head up here to share this fine Richard Lapper obituary of my friend and fellow Sheffield born author @GeoffNicholson9 who died suddenly, after a long illness, last month. https://t.co/6QXHCI2tyS

The Cineworld closure news is especially bad for members of the Indian, Pakistani, Korean, Chinese/World communities in Nottingham, who are currently pretty well served. See, for instance, the offerings currently listed on the CW website. Hope @BroadwayCinema can do more here.

Sad to receive an email saying @cineworld is closing its Nottingham cinema on February 2nd, having failed to secure a rent reduction. Their unlimited card has given great value for more than 20 years. Still, has to be good news for my favourite Nottingham cinema @BroadwayCinema

Isobel Hardman in the Observer belittling prison libraries. Annoying when writers use cheap throwaway remarks on what they know little about. I’ve visited over 70. Most are excellent particularly if part of local council service. Each is a proper library and valued as such.

Sending solidarity and birthday wishes to Gaie Delap, a peaceful climate protester who is spending her 78th birthday behind bars – all because the private company responsible for fitting electronic tags couldn't find one the right size for her. Will keep pushing for her release.

@Nicklezard Fake, I'm afraid, but kind of fun.

@GeoffNicholson9 Sadly, I only have dry vermouth, or I'd give it a shot.

The new @uncutmagazine has four acts I have tickets for in #Nottingham (The Weather Station, Richard Dawson, Delines & Nadia Reid) so I'm obviously in the right place. Hope BPB will tour too. Btw shouldn't Uncut be in the blue place by now?

As a lifelong @LFC supporter, couldn't think of anything that'd stop me supporting the club - until I read this.

Six minutes of decency, intelligence and common sense as Starmer denounces lies& praises Jess Philips while eviscerating Musk and Bad Enoch without stooping to name them. And yeah I like the way autocorrect makes me spell the Tory leader's name.
