Election night. I’m not sure why but I’m staying up. Dual screening. Having a whisky 🥃
Today’s kitchen experiment: Lacto-fermented green beans. Results will be known in about a fortnight 🤔
New premises in Aberdare for our local independent craft brewery Grey Trees Brewery 🍺
UK General Election
Vote! 🗳️
If you are bored and disgusted by politics and don’t bother to vote, you are in effect voting for the entrenched Establishments of the two major parties, who please rest assured are not dumb, and who are keenly aware that it is in their interests to keep you disgusted and bored and cynical and to give you every possible psychological reason to stay at home doing one-hitters and watching MTV on primary day. By all means stay home if you want, but don’t bullshit yourself that you’re not voting. In reality, there is no such thing as not voting: you either vote by voting, or you vote by staying home and tacitly doubling the value of some Diehard’s vote.
Up, Simba

Live election results watch-along: July 4th from 9:45pm - Freedom News
We will chart the winners and losers and assess the new political landscape with a panel of anarchist voices. Stick on a news channel, mute their mainstream noise, and have us on a second screen for up-to-the-minute anarchist news and views.
This could be an interesting watch/listen on Thursday night. A lot of time to fill though.
Having an oak aged gin to celebrate 🏴⚽️
Huge sigh of relief 🏴⚽️
FFS. Cutting it fine. Nervous wreck 🏴 ⚽️
Euro 2024. England 🏴 v 🇸🇰 Slovakia. Half time. 0-1. Worrying ⚽️

That catch by Suryakumar Yadav! 👏👏👏
Very tense last couple of overs. But South Africa just fail in the run chase and India win the 2024 T20 World Cup 🏆🏏
4 overs to go, only 26 runs needed. South Africa impressively attacking the spin bowling. But as I type this Hardik takes the wicket of Klaasen 😬🏏
Also keeping an eye on the football ⚽️
