You know the major parties are full of utter cocks when you find yourself cheering George Galloway, of all people, for thrashing them all.

Fairwell then G+, you appear to want me to use the name my employer uses for me when preaching about “Bob” etc. Um. No. http://t.co/HKGszNr1

Or maybe a ‘min price’ is better than tax-increase on booze ‘coz that only affects the poor drinking cheaply rather than champagne drinkers?

Why set a ‘minimum price’ for alcohol rather than just putting the tax up? Do we want booze firms to keep the money rather than the taxman?

My short mini-book “Do Dream Sheep Bleat?” now available as gratis, DRM-free, ePub download: http://t.co/w4jBq32f

Oops, sorry about the MLP bomb, seems my feed was stuck and it all jumped at once when I poked it.

So, farewell then NHS,and me voting liberal democrat. So much for moderating the Tory government. Hello Green Party! My vote’s lucky winner!

Well, unless there’s a Pirate candidate of course.

Hey @LibDems, I’ve always voted for you guys, but if this #NHSbill passes I’ll never do so again. You know that, right? http://t.co/LNsGVfOI

“There’s plenty more fish in the sea” is not good comforting advice to a shark attack victim.

Finished Rage then. It was good but somehow expected more from ID. Ordered Skyrim. Yay!

Woo! 1st draft of the script for this year’s “Tentacle Monster” animation is done. To celebrate, a test render pic: http://t.co/gHqNYD7f

If facebook ever forces the ‘timeline profile’ I’ll use it to periodically delete everything from my facebook history @littlearif @pootle76

It’s okay kids! They can only steal 10 quid a day. Meh. RT @robby_red: @RevPriest there’s a tenner limit per day or something?

Apparently my “contactless” debit card is on it’s way. Remote debiting without needing a PIN. Sounds safe. Faraday cage wallet at the ready!

If you don’t want private companies taking NHS money and you haven’t signed the egov petition, please explain why not: http://t.co/k2w3JVTN

Wow, even posting to the internet for help didn’t make me sort out what was wrong five minutes later! Selenium problem: http://t.co/bT86QGLI

Enjoyed this strange podcast interview with my friend @robolollycop mostly about his book: http://t.co/fVdzgDtm

Likely no video from the show this weekend though, too dark again. So if you missed it, you missed it for good. Come along next time!

Gig at @planetangel was great, lots of fun with plenty of people who’ve never heard us saying they enjoyed it, as did we. Excellent party.

Handsome Jack’s Showband play at Planet Angel TONIGHT! Doors 10pm, we’re on at midnight. Tickets still available! http://t.co/UvYyAfg7

Here’s a very very early (first really) test render for a film I’m planning to release around mid-year. Only 5 seconds! http://t.co/IVDiDFrJ

Quite excited to be playing with “BigV Hosting” as a beta tester. Looking like an awesome setup, and cheap too. www.bigv.io

Interesting looking course on visual design for coders here. It’s free too. I may well take part 🙂 http://t.co/ITdUZ65A @methodofaction

Had an eye test today. I’m officially getting short sighted as well now. Age you see. Not quite enough to bother with verificals yet though.

Glad they did block the wiki though, hope it stops those horrible bills and anything else like ’em.

The wikipedia blackout is less annoying than I’d imagined. Loads the page THEN blacks out. Noscript or well timed escape button overrides it

Impressive number of websites blacked out in SOPA protest. Here’s some screenshots: http://t.co/RWEEPn0l

We’ll be playing at the @PlanetAngel valentine ball on the 10th Feb 2012, here’s the whole band singing about the fact: http://t.co/DIp4wOI2

Getting jealous of all the people playing Skyrim which I still haven’t brought. Buy buying it now would likely mean never finishing Rage!

Sounds pretty sensible for a government minister. But where are the teachers who can code? I had to teach my teacher. http://t.co/24z7uOOy

Medium? Who the hell microwaves things on Medium? Bah. {Puts food back into the machine for another few minutes, high power this time}

Good grief, have you seen the time? It’s 2012 already. Don’t things fly. Happy new year folks.

Happy Christmas From Handsome Jack’s Showband: http://t.co/IngHrYhR – Share and enjoy!

Oh, apparently the filming of new Red Dwarf is going well. This pleases me.

Why on earth would Tories refuse to even talk about cycling deaths on London roads? They must hate cyclists I guess. http://t.co/5wEl7FvS

Today I shall be wishing that a general strike would affect government police and stop the insane war on the poor.

Hurray for @OccupyLSX – taking over a bank’s unusued building and using it for community purposes is exactly what squatters rights are for.

People seem to think we’ll be celebrating war at 11? No. We’ll be silently contemplating the stupid horrible waste & hoping “Never Again”.

Today was a second-breakfast day. Very rare. And yet still not enough! I want my lunch already.

http://t.co/gvQZbKKp – My new Creative Commons video “Oscar’s Ontological Odyssey” is an existential animation. Check it out. Tell everyone.

Sorry for the complete silence lately (if you noticed it). I’ve been so busy I can barely think.

About four hours till Channel Four shows “The Assassin” which may even feature a shot of a famous man signing my business card for me.

http://t.co/rlAsASgC – If taxman Dave Hartnett is sacked for letting corps off billions in tax, how long before he has a top corporate job?

Yay! Legal reform of the libel laws. BoO! They seem to be making them worse! http://t.co/N62axubO

http://t.co/ZMqWGkEn – New Blog Post: My New Debian Netbook

Made a USB stick with a bootable customized Debian live partition. It rocks. Still doesn’t wanna make the home-rw partition work though. 🙁
