I went to the dentist & she had a screen above chair w/Netflix, which suggested Bridgerton & I thought why not check it out and WHY DID NONE OF YOU WARN ME THAT THERE WOULD BE A TEN MINUTE LONG STEAMY & DETAILED SEX SCENE RIGHT AT THE TOP THAT I WOULD HAVE TO WATCH WHILE SHE DRILLED MY TEETH

In Tallinn today. Loads of good naval stuff here. I'm doing youtube shorts where i can (i.e. woth permission).

If you like ships or quirky museum stuff make sure you're following me on youtube.

PARTICULARLY today if British pre-war subs are your thing (spoiler alert) www.youtube.com/gariusthebrit

I'm yet to go in. As long as it's not Boba, I'll be happy.

Now, having seen these numbers, here's a little tip: if you're worried about the Reform support, if you're worried about Trump, the far-right rise in Europe, then you MUST support Ukraine. It may not look it, but it's all the same war, just different facets of it.

He's probably waiting for it now. He's hoping for the sorry spaniel look, isn't he? "Look what you all did to me."

Already seeing certain media outlets justifying their heavy coverage of Reform over other parties with "well, they got twice as many votes as the Greens". Dear god, grow up and just admit you think Farage makes for good copy.

I am so going to regret staying this late, tomorrow morning 😔 Better not make it even worse. Still, there might be some things to look forward to when I wake up, I suppose.

Suddenly, I feel an overwhelming wave of warm feelings towards the FPTP.

Gracefully blaming the leaders. Still, I was half-expecting to hear what a catastrophic result for Keir Starmer this is shaping up to be.

If that was a hashtag two weeks ago, Lib Dems would be now looking at a comfortable second place 🤭

It’s Election results eve tonight, so I’m putting out a mince pie and a hairbrush for Sir John Curtice, a carrot for IPSOS, and a letter asking for chopper bike, a Big Trak, and for Jacob Rees-Mogg to lose his seat.

I wonder how much of it is down to people actually expecting goofy stuff from him. None of this would have helped Sunak, and probably neither Starmer.

It'll be something about sign makers' guild winning the kings favour in the 13th Century or something similar.

I've supported Labour all my life, but my vote has been meaningless for 20 years since moving to Somerset. It hurts, but to make a positive impact this election I need to vote Lib Dem. Vote tactically tomorrow, please. We've a unique chance to change the political axis in Parliament this election.

With all the other news going on today, it would be easy for this story to get swamped, when in fact it may be the most important revelation of the year.
