"amplify your people" is 100% the best strategy

Rafa Sales Ross@rafiews.com

I’m not a political journalist, so was gladly surprised at the community I found here last night. To Americans anxious about the upcoming elections, a key thing we learned in Brazil that might help you: DO NOT engage with the far-right online. Don’t share rage bait. Amplify your people. Ignore them.

Onward to series 2 of The Tripods. A naff off air recording, but needs must. We're off to a rousing start with a creepy village capping and a hero squashed. The plan to infiltrate the Tripod City is bonkers but at least it's more purposeful than the first series.

Eh? Beanpole gets chosen as a candidate for the games but Henry is kept back because of (paraphrasing) his genius with tactics to defeat the tripods? The tactics Beanpole came up with? The tactics that are "knock one over and throw a grenade in the hole at the front, lol"??

The good news is all six episodes of The Power of the Daleks have been recovered by the BBC*. The bad news is every shot of the Vulcan Earth Examiner‘s badge will be edited out because it has been deemed political. [*joke]

Kick his front door in with a bazooka gun and keep his robots distracted while the real assassins slip in the back. Works every time! :)

I don't really give a monkey's about a harder or darker Bond as much as I need a movie Bond to be able to be charming and disarming. An arsehole in a book is very different from an arsehole on screen. (Get your mind out of the gutter, you! :P )

Bond being charming to get information at the resort in Casino Royale is a lot more interesting to me than strangling someone with their own bra.

New wee counselling blog out this morning. (Was briefly tempted to call it "The Nipples of a Counsellor" - been a long week!)

Earlier this week, a client asked me what keeps me going as a counsellor. I had a think for the latest wee counselling blog… www.mckellarcounselling.com/post/the-phi... #wellbeing #counselling #mentalhealth #CBT #cbttherapy

7 episodes into The Tripods now and nearly done with the Chateau. A lot of long scenes of not much going on at all were almost worth it for the creepy Queen of the Tournament payoff.

Watching The Way Back after a long day and it's kind of fun how the security crew on the London seemingly regenerate before episode 2. I assume the one who puts Blake in restraints at the end of the episode is meant to be Raker?

Finally starting to look through the boxes of family photos from my mums. Naturally the kitten is finding everything fascinating...

Started 'Crystal Lake' tonight and I was not really prepared for adorable kid Jason. Lovely work from Linda Cardellini too. ❤️ 😢

New wee counselling blog out this morning. Been an interesting week!

I was lucky enough to hear President Obama speak in Glasgow this week, and a lot of what he said really stuck with me. More in my latest wee counselling blog: www.mckellarcounselling.com/post/three-l... #wellbeing #counselling #mentalhealth #CBT #cbttherapy

Didn't twig that Clayface is the guy who was in Dot & Bubble, which was probably my favourite of Doctor 15's run. I can't imagine the film being a huge success (niche character and no Batman?) but I'm looking forward to it!

Send your journalism friends this way. It is genuinely life-changing: space to breathe, learn, grow, and innovate, facilitated by excellent humans who curate cohorts of people with an eye on how they might work together. It’s a gift. (They didn’t ask me to post this. I’m just very happy.)

What question would you pursue to help move journalism forward? If you’re eager to dig deeper, challenge assumptions and spend real time in pursuit of that question, the JSK Fellowships at Stanford is the place for you. buff.ly/3pXwsLC

Was delighted to be among the 12k see Obama speak in Glasgow this evening. Very refreshing and hopeful. A lot to think about.

My local Co-op has stopped selling the hot chocolate you can make with water and only stocks the stuff that needs to be made in a pot with milk and honestly it feels like a personal attack...

I wonder if the unending push for data centres everywhere is to make it ever harder to stop the relentless right-wing bollocks infecting every aspect of life in 2026...

John Stewart is probably my least favourite of the classic Green Lanterns (only Geoff Johns seemed to bring him to life for me) so I was never going to be rushing to see Lanterns, but anyone seen it and want to recommend it? (I have heard what it does with Hal, which uurgh..).

“Every day, once a day, give yourself a present. Don't plan it. Don't wait for it. Just let it happen. It could be a new shirt at the men's store, a catnap in your office chair, or two cups of good, hot black coffee.” ❤️ ☕ 🏔️🏔️

This is both lovely and a bit of a two fingers up at how RTD left things. Delighted to see something come from getting Susan involved again.

Ear woes over the last few weeks but FINALLY managed to get a prescription today that will hopefully sort everything out. Now to just use it and distract myself with telly/films...

Reading a local person complaining that the new drive-thru Starbucks at the roundabout only lets you park there for 90 minutes...

New wee counselling blog out this morning. Do you live to work or work to live? (And what's Red Dwarf got to do with it?).... :)
