Nik Nak’s Daily Teaser — 20th January 2026.

20th January, 2026.

For me, right now … ?

It’s getting towards pay day: on Friday.

Which means?

That right now, I’m feeling skint, blue … and mildly frustrated.

Not having cash will do that do a body, won’t it?

19th January, 2026.

Sodding X … !

It’s very frustrating … !

I’ve had my posts limited: as, apparently, I’m posting potential spam.

The frustrating thing … ?

Is that the automated Customer Help chat bot?

Is exactly that: automated, very repetitive … and can’t give me a time it’ll be finished.

Oh, and tells me I have to sign up for Premium, to talk to someone human about it.

What does Elon Musk want?   Apart from blood?

~≈Ç≈~

About the only upside to this … ?

Is that I saw a silly post on the service.

This one:

So?

I tried it, myself, and got this picture: 

I don’t for sure: but isn’t that a pregnancy test?

Quite what’s happening, there, I don’t know!

Nik Nak’s Daily Teaser — 18-1-2026 — DeSalvo

18th January, 2026: DeSalvo.

I think I’m on safe territory, here.

In saying that the 47th President of the United States of America is a screaming twat.

If you’ll pardon my language!

I’ll also say that the UK’s Prime Minister, Sir Keir Starmer, may not be helping.

The President’s demands — that the US take over Greenland — are still on-going: with the US, under the President’s orders, due to impose tariffs from February.

Something affected countries have criticised as unacceptable.

Understandably.

Additionally?

The Prime Minister tells us the allies will be “pursuing this directly, with the administration”.

Which is possibly where things fall apart.

I believe whatever Britain’s representatives say to the current US administration is going to get ignored …

Nik Nak’s Daily Teaser — 17th January 2026.

17th January, 2026.

Yes: that’s right.

It’s Saturday.

We can officially dance, sing, wave our arms around, and do stuff … !

If we can be bothered, obviously!

~≈🕺≈~

The UK’s Green Party has called for free bus travel for youngsters under the age of twenty-two.

A policy that’s in place in Scotland: and available for under-eighteens on Transport-for-London’s services.

I like the idea: and know it’s something my fifteen-year-old nephew, Jude, would benefit from.

I like the idea … but … ?

I’m mildly jealous … and wondering where the money to pay for it’s coming from … 

~≈🚏≈~

Former Tory MP, Robert Jenrick, has defected from the Conservatives, to Reform.

Normally?

I’d vote for neither party: even though, in the wake of Jenrick’s treachery, I’ve thought of voting Conservative to keep a Reform MP from not getting elected in Brentwood.

It was a close run thing, at the last General Election: with the Tories getting ~17, 000 votes, to Reform’s ~11, 000.

The Tory candidate scored ~36, 000 in the previous election: when Reform didn’t stand.

In all honesty, though?

I don’t think I’d vote for either party: both of them are too right wing for my tastes.

Either way … ?

I don’t think I’d be voting for Robert Jenrick: I feel those voters who did vote for him in 2026, voted for a Conservative MP, not a Reform one.

In defecting, he’s betrayed them: by denying them the MP they voted for.

Personally?

I think Mr Jenrick should do what other defecting MPs should do in his shoes.

Stand down, and stand, again, in the subsequent by-election.

That way, voters get to vote for a traitor: or vote for someone new.

Nik Nak’s Daily Teaser — 16th January 2026.

16th January, 2026.

Right, then: it’s now Friday.

And … ?

I’ve remember to take my Mounjaro … !

Having to inject myself is a much needed chore that’s easy to forget.

But?

I’m very aware it’s exactly that: a much needed chore.

~≈💉≈~

I *think* I’m having issues with X: the site formerly known as Twitter.

As I’m sure Olga and Debbi will tell you, it’s getting harder to find my posts on the site.

I’ve JUST had a word with the site’s automated Help item: and have a lot of stuff to go through, as a result.

But … ?

Apparently, I can talk to a human … if I subscribe to X’s premium service.

Money for which, I don’t have.

Remind me to tell you about the phrase, ‘urinating dog’.

I’m tempted to use a lot of them …
