Yet more library filth for those that just can't help themselves #libraries

My theory of why GenX are so good at finding shit on the internet: because this is how we learned to do research.

‘Browse, borrow, request, renew - lovely words to me. A library card in your hand is your democracy.’ (“Dear Library,” Jackie Kay 💜🪧) Mr Sheppie and I are ready - who’s with us? #LibrariesAreEssential

Incredible.

Conservatives trounced in the local elections, but the bbc flagship politicial programme #bbclaurak lead “interview” is an unchallenged rant from the delusional, divisive, twice-sacked, right wing crank, Suella Braverman.

Why was she platformed?

The only good thing the Tories can do for the country now is call an election and fuck off, in that order. Everyone knows this. I suspect even the parliamentary party knows it. Only one person does not and that is the prime minister.

Being as charitable as possible: I think BBC has questions to ask itself over representation and balance in politics programming. Over-representation of (very) underperforming minor parties, recycling of (very)unreliable rumours. Do they equitably represent the nation they serve?

“The reality is that the Britain truly does not need more 20,000+ capacity arenas, it needs an unwavering amount of support for the venues that are formative to each town and city’s night life and gig culture throughout Britain.” - ⁦godisinthetv zine⁩ godisinthetvzine.co.uk/2024/05/03/opi…

Paying a heartfelt tribute to #CoopLive for making me feel better about all the GetitLoudinLibraries gigs we had to put doors back by 15 minutes due to soundcheck running over and drummers losing their sticks. Respect 👊

Polling guru Sir John Curtice tells BBC Radio 4 Today: “You’re probably looking at one of the worst, if not the worst, Conservative performances in local government elections for the last 40 years.' 👀
