Hi folks. I am a History and Politics teacher who resides in Belfast. I write occasionally for websites about film and books. I love cinema, Music and literature. Originally grew up in the Greater Manchester area. #introduction
@StaggerLee42 Morning! Welcome!
@Dusted Here lies our brave new world… 😜
@StaggerLee42 Have to get our fix somewhere. I am still baffled as to the man childs intentions for the other place. 40Bn for what?
@Dusted Surely trying to sell it off (at a loss) at some stage???
@StaggerLee42 Hello Lee. Welcome to Mastodon 🙂
I too am a GM exile (though I prefer to refer to it as Lancashire… Bolton’s my home.) Hope you enjoy stuff here! The water is warm and calm.
@johnyNocash Alright mate. My name’s Chris actually despite the handle! Yeah, I am looking forward to less lunatic fringe politics and more Arts etc 👍
@StaggerLee42 Ha! I fall victim to another pseudonym 😂
There’s quite a good writing and arts community here, though I’ve yet to find much in the way of music stuff. Might just be looking in the wrong place… lunatic fringe political seems to be all-consuming at the moment, but here’s the best place to escape it!
@johnyNocash Crackerjack! I kept the handle from Twitter in order to meet some of the auld crowd here. Otherwise I may well have changed it! Still finding my feet as I am not the most tech savvy. We shall see how it goes…
@StaggerLee42 Welcome Chris. I hope you find your people here, there's lots of good uns around, just takes a bit of time to get started
@Twoclownseating Hi Matt. Grand to meet you and yes, hoping for a new like-minded community on here 👍
@StaggerLee42 off the top of my head you could try searching on the hashtags #JukeboxFridayNight and #Bookstodon for music and book types. People reply more on here so often worth digging into replies to find like-minded folks
