The world has lost one of the greatest humans to ever walk this Earth. This is devastating.

My four year old daughter is about to get the 5th prime minister of her lifetime. It’s mental stuff.

Dermot is a legend in journalism. He was always kind and generous with his time and advice. The absolute best of us. Thinking of his friends and family this weekend.

Only one chance in this lifetime… Like watching sunset at the beach from the most foreign seat in the cosmos, I couldn’t resist a cell phone video of Earthset. You can hear the shutter on the Nikon as @Astro_Christina is hammering away on 3-shot brackets and capturing those exceptional Earthset photos through the 400mm lens. @AstroVicGlover was in window 3 watching with @Astro_Jeremy next to him. I could barely see the Moon through the docking hatch window but the iPhone was the perfect size to catch the view…this is uncropped, uncut with 8x zoom which is quite comparable to the view of the human eye. Enjoy.

This sucks. You can’t take news out of a newsroom.
NEW: LGBTQ+ publisher PinkNews is making its remaining reporters redundant, saying it wants to “move away from having a reporter-led newsroom” to a model where there “isn’t a need for the reporter role”

I really want this to be good and I really hope Sky gives it a chance to run and find its feet! Saturday nights have been missing that anarchic showpiece variety/comedy show for years now.

Amid the hysteria of the BLM Terror, I was offered an exciting opportunity by Sky News to participate in an unconscious bias course to root-out my white privilege. I say "offered", which suggests it was optional, which it wasn't. The course was, of course, meretricious, grifting bunk. "Diversity", for much of the MSM, is increasingly a fig-leaf for group-think, activism and grievance mongering. Hilariously, so many of the people who work in our legacy media think of themselves as being part of the counter-culture. In reality they are Establishment stooges and a grudging block on true cognitive diversity.

It was played twice yesterday on the BBC radio station I work at.
The BBC has banned 'Fairytale of New York' by The Pogues. Peter Barnes: "I'm offended by the people who are offended on my behalf. I don't need your help." WHAT JUST HAPPENED? youtu.be/MQe8k8wK1Fg @TVKev @PCBarnes123 @virtualash

I wouldn't tell x.com I think my newborn child is 'non-existent' for a start...
Not to start A Discourse but I was invited to a child-free wedding on the West Coast in January. It will be 3 wks after I have my baby. Does "child-free wedding" also include very young newborns? Curious about thoughts. Newborns (to my mind) are basically nonexistent.
