"Stories are what make us human. We tell stories, we listen to stories, we live inside stories. Perhaps our souls are nothing but tiny, decorative, multi-dimensional blankets we pull over our shivering brains, woven from delicate threads of narrative."

God love Tom Lewis.

This site needs to stop normalising Tommy Robinson like he's for liberal thought. He's really not. He's for pro-white thought. There's a very very big difference.

@scottygb Love it. Brilliant first show, can't wait to see how it grows.

The antisemitism is out of control on this app.

[@springwritenow.bsky.social - Christopher Spring @Springwritenow]

Such a minor thing, but Trump wearing a golf hat at what is, essentially a funeral is so disrespectful

[@springwritenow.bsky.social - Christopher Spring @Springwritenow]

@AaronBastani To be fair, reform aren't there either. So it's a bit of a mad one to not include either.

When does satire and misinformation bleed into one another?

[Tactical Choice @tacticalchoice_]

Labour have ILLEGALLY falsified our copyrighted logo and brand to send entirely fake leaflets purporting to be from Tactical Choice in Gorton and Denton.

We will be taking legal action.

Do NOT vote Labour.

Vote Green.

@beardonsports @Boynielaad Oh 100%. I think it was careless rather than cynical though, because if he had jumped earlier I think he'd have a chance? Also, glad that it's a 20 mins red and not "GG". That new rule is good.

[@springwritenow.bsky.social - Christopher Spring @Springwritenow]

@beardonsports @Boynielaad Also, I think he did have a realistic chance based on his perception? He was looking at the ball. I don't think it was a cynical take out at all and I don't think the English player knew the Scot was there. Thought it was just... Rugby play. An ouch, penalty and move on

@lewis_goodall THANK YOU!!!!

@KnightoftheLP Really not incredible. Beautiful, but terribly bloated. (And I love Fallout)

[@springwritenow.bsky.social - Christopher Spring @Springwritenow]

Controversial opinion:

I love Fallout, but Fallout Season 2 was pointless. Could have made the whole thing 2 episodes.

Beautiful, but meandering, too many characters and deeply unsatisfying.

@LeapfrogMark Meh, I disagree. I think that Nick Robinson fundamentally allowed his politics to cloud his judgment; my general discontent and malaise dates back to 2008 and if not this hill, then which one?

[@springwritenow.bsky.social - Christopher Spring @Springwritenow]

@LeapfrogMark Exactly. So why should we start by conceding an argument that supports a more healthy society (economically and literally in this case). Accepting conservative points without a fight from the off leads to the situation we've got ourselves into: so lets win the argument.

[@springwritenow.bsky.social - Christopher Spring @Springwritenow]

@LeapfrogMark There is plenty of money to go around if there is a willingness to do so. We live in an unequal society and getting worse, but that doesn't mean that we should just give up. Tax high income earners properly and create a system that works for people. It works in Europe. Cx

Or, campaign for a more reasonable transport system whereby trains were more affordable than flights. Just a thought.

[Kirstie Allsopp @KirstieMAllsopp]

God I’m bored of the performative environmental bollocks we adhere to in the TV industry. Poorly paid staff having 10 hour train journeys which cost twice what a plane would, because @WeAreALBERT says that’s what must happen, it’s just absurd.

[@springwritenow.bsky.social - Christopher Spring @Springwritenow]

The @BBCr4today team interviewing vulnerable people in camps in Northern France is just whipping up racism and not pointing out the insanity of people running from conflicts having to apply for asylum with IDs and passports. This is sick. Sick. #r4today

The last speaker complaining of the president being a victim of an assassination attempt conveniently ignores that it was a registered republican then blames the "left" for lecturing republicans. It's the Milosevic playbook: play victim and stoke division #r4today

[@springwritenow.bsky.social - Christopher Spring @Springwritenow]

@joecrayston Ah right, and which article is that? Can you point it out and let me know what others you think are valid to lose? Also, he said to suspend the entirety of the ECHR.

[@springwritenow.bsky.social - Christopher Spring @Springwritenow]

We out here openly advocating for the removal of Human Rights on the Today programme as if this is a normal position to hold? Which human right don't you agree with Mr Rifkind? Also, "BOAT PEOPLE"?? Christ. #r4today
