Shout out to people who put their Christmas tree switch in an accessible place and not behind ALL of the branches.
You guys have your lives together.
Solidarity to the knee-crawlers, showered in pine needles, cracking baubles and dodging eye-pokes. You’ve got this.

In my local area I've ONE sign outside someone's house supporting a political party. Literally one. I walk past it and marvel and think "there it is, there's the sign".
Anyone else noticed a general apathy about public signage – or just a quirk of where I live?
— Rob Manuel – follow @fesshole (@robmanuel) December 11, 2019
Actually, I think it's fear.
Used to be a sign of vague middle-of-the-road allegiance.
Now, putting up a Tory/labour sign outside your house is an act of (culture) war. Practically asking for your house to be vandalised.

BBC News just explained that I was allowed to share how I voted on twitter. I never thought you were interested, but here goes: I went to the polling station, put an X next to a candidate on the voting paper, and put the folded slip into a box. #keepingtheUKsafefordemocracy

Not a fan of newspapers screaming at me who to vote for on #pollingday. Also not a fan of people on social media doing the same. Isn't it bizarre how broadcasters are forbidden from reporting anything other than 'the polls are open' while the rest of the media goes nuts?

Why Jesus is better than Santa:
1. He gives us what we could never deserve.
2. He has a heart for the poor, whereas Santa always gives rich kids nicer gifts.
3. He is with us all year.
4. He’s also, y’know, real.— Sam Allberry (@SamAllberry) December 12, 2019

88% of Tory ads contained lies.
They lied re Brexit, 50k nurses, 40 hospitals.
They faked a video and fact check site
They faked news about a 4-year old & Labour spending
They paid for bots to spread fake news.
They suppressed the Russia report.CONCLUSION

FWIW in the late 90’s I worked with a French woman. One day I gently teased with her, and she suddenly exclaimed “OooH! You are pulling my pigeon!”
Cue befuddled looks, then considerable amusement as she realised it didn’t quite translate.
Brilliant!
