I think it needs your full handle. If I understand correctly, it is analogous to email providers, although there aren't many alternative providers for Bluesky at the moment. E.g. @davidcolquhoun.eurosky.social would refer to a completely different account.

Zack Polanski stood by breast enlargment hypnosis claim A newly unearthed interview from 2013 casts doubt on the Green Party leader's claim to have apologised.

How are the Greens going to do any better at transitioning to a zero carbon power system than Labour without nuclear power? How are they going to "reduce bills", deal with privatised utilities? I still haven't heard anything practical from the former breast enlargement hypnotist.

The story I read was that Starmer wanted George Osborne and McSweeney wanted Mandelson. Neither wanted Karen Pierce to keep the post despite her good relationship with Trump and long diplomatic career. Jobs for the boys.

Ignorant people who voted purely on self indulgent, jingoistic bigotry with no regard to the futures of their children and grandchildren.

I was just joshing. It is not spurious though, the guy is a madman:

Woe betide you if you call out his bullshit to his cult-like followers. Among other things, I was called a fascist and "Jeffery Epstein" in the pile-on after responding to one of his posts.

I once went to an Indian restaurant with a blind couple from my cycling club who turned out to be extremely racist. After being served by the waiter, who had a strong London accent, the woman said to me "At least he's not one of them." Of course, he was. I couldn't get my head around it.

Apart from his attitude towards women, PhDs and postdocs said his was horrible to work for.

I wonder which is the least bad: Trump staggering on to the end of the term, or Vance taking over?

His father lived to 93 and his mother 88. Trump also has the advantage of state of the art healthcare. I can't see him checking out before the next election.

It's so rare that we see photos like this one of an Iranian schoolboy. Maybe we need to see more of them.

My moronic neighbour who inflicts constant coal smoke pollution on everyone in the vicinity. Vile stuff.

The same thing was done in the Iraq invasion. Shut down services and industry.
