Today on the blog. 54 years ago today, the Queen Elizabeth 2 went on her maiden voyage. She was created as the last word in modern ocean liner design, closing the door on the traditional Art Deco past. Just one problem: her décor was from 1969 and didn't age well! Within three years she was refitted, but in those early years she was the floating embodiment of the garish '60s. #histodons #ships #oceanliners #design #QE2

#nye To 2022, I say this. Aside from getting rid of #LNP, what did 2022 do for us? #COVID19 still reeked havoc, we got #inflation, #QE2 dropping off the perch, #UkraineWar, #twitter goes to shit completely, #Floods again, we lost #archieroach #rayliotta women are still dying from #domesticviolence #Wallabies still can’t win #BledisloeCup, #Murdoch is still peddling lies and #neoliberal bullshit, I lost my #mother and #father and I needed another new #hip, and the list continues…#2022recap #GAGF I for one am very much looking forward to #2023 🫤

I left the room for 5 minutes, just FIVE minutes, and...
- #Johnson gone
- #Truss gone
- #Sunak hangin' by a thread
- #QE2 dead
It's all gone to shit, and it was not great to start with.
And now all these new people coming in here and tooting about how they discovered life outside #Twitter like battery hens set free and lovin' it.
That's a beak. Those are feathers. That's the sky. Food. Water. Enjoy.
All these happy chickens goin' ape on
#mastodon.
