Unscientific survey: do you use an algorithmic or chronological timeline as your main view here? quick poll, 3 clicks total. strawpoll.com/7rnzVXJXYnO

Popular misconception: most aren't. Though the hard-core blueskyers are using a *mostly* chronological one, the default has been algorithmic since 2024.

Today marks one year since Claire died. Claire was kind, driven, and fiercely committed to making things better, not just for herself, but for others. Her story is the reason this campaign exists. Claire’s story brought people together and continues to drive change across Wales.

I'm seeing a lot of these fake Donald Trump truths being posted on BlueSky (and lesser sites) at the moment. Its pretty easy to check, and you owe it to yourself and other people before sharing it.

BREAKING 🚨 Trump threatens to invade Greenland again if Europe doesn’t help him against Iran.

I'm really pleased with the way this photo turned out. If you look very, very carefully it's a coyote in the distance crossing the frozen lake separating #Toronto #Canada 🇨🇦 from its islands. Maxed out the 📷 zoom and very little blur even though we were traveling on a busy, moving ferry.

From last month's holiday in #Toronto #Canada 🇨🇦. We caught the Ward's Island Ferry and spent a couple of hours exploring. This is the view we got when we looked back at the city. Will likely end up on a canvas on the wall.

While in #Toronto, #Canada 🇨🇦 last month, we got tickets to watch Toronto #Marlies take on Laval Rocket at the Scotiabank Arena. First time watching ice hockey. It was the Family Day Bank Holiday (we could do with one of those here in the UK 😀! Fantastic first match to experience too.

We walked down to the harbourfront #Toronto, #Canada 🇨🇦. The ice in this stretch of water was like nothing I'd seen before. Looked impressive, but you wouldn't want to try and walk on it. The week we were there (mid-February 2026) the area was experiencing "warmer" temperatures.

Found this beast, and an old orange carriage alongside other pieces of equipment outside the museum of #rail in #Toronto, #Ontario, #Canada 🇨🇦. The amount of snow blew us away. We very rarely get snow like this in Cardiff 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿. No chance to visit the museum but hope to do so in the future.

Indulge me, but I'm going to start sharing photos from my visit to #Toronto and #NiagaraFalls earlier in the month. A little feed cleanser in these troubling times. It was our first visit to #Canada 🇨🇦. Won't be our last. This was the first proper view of the CN Tower after leaving the hotel.

World Cancer Day is a reminder that outcomes don’t just depend on treatment, they depend on timing. In Wales, delays in gynaecological cancer care remain severe. In November, only 32% of patients started treatment within the 62-day target, with wide variation between Health Boards.

Joe Todds Joe, 64, from Swansea, experienced chronic backache and spotting years after menopause. When she visited her GP, they were dismissive and declined to investigate further. Concerned, Joe decided to go private, where a scan revealed endometrial cancer.

Happy Halloween! 😱

The fundamental problem: 58% of voters want public spending maintained or increased. 67% want taxes to stay at their current level or be cut. In reality, it’s a binary choice. Taxes go up, or spending is cut. That’s it.

Jess's Rule will require GPs in England to "think again" if patients return 3 times with unresolved or worsening symptoms, or without a diagnosis. We would like to see similar ambition here in Wales, to ensure women are safeguarded and listened to. 💜 www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...
