Love my memories sometimes, brings up things I forgot, like this post about how Ice Cream is a health food

Facebook directly enabled the Rohingya genocide. Every executive involved in running the company today chose to work at a company that directly enabled those deaths. Compared to that, it is _nothing_ for their products to cause your children harm. Billions for a settlement is a pittance.

reposting my Reacher fanart because there's a new season

Adapting to climate change without ending the fossil fuel industry.

Canada is giving serious consideration to changing the name of Donald Trump to “President Poopy Britches.” Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Boxed wine lies to you. The last one I got said it lasts 4-6 weeks, but it only lasted the weekend

Fed up with people shirking responsibility by arguing that the UK causes just 1% of emissions? Here are two fantastic analogies from a primary school teacher, Mark in Coventry, who called Sheila Fogerty on @lbc.co.uk - one involving dog poo 😆 Other arguments here: www.nebriefing.org/mp-dialogue

They should give Katalin Karikó a Nobel Prize every year.

My cat doesn't actually sign cards to family and friends. I sign it for him because he can't actually write at all.

Did his ego expand his head without his face?

Good grief, this hits home.

Here it is. My manifesto for the 2026 Clacton By-Election. It's a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Join me, clean up Clacton and let's make 13th August Bin Day! #VoteBinface #VoteyMcVoteface #YesWeTinCan

I wrote about the Nolan Odyssey for the LRB. I'll summarize some of my main points below, in case you don't feel like reading all that. www.lrb.co.uk/the-paper/v4...

When shopping, if I see a young person working there looking miserable I'll remember their name then write to the store and give them a completely manufactured glowing review. I remember what it was like doing jobs like that and it makes me feel good all evening.

When does a joke become a dad joke? When it’s fully groan.

"That's too much money it's GOPPING!" So here's an idea: if there's a poverty line that says you've not got enough, why shouldn't there be a line that says you've got too much? We agree and we think it's time to draw an Extreme Wealth Line. 🎤 @adambrichto.bsky.social

Shortly after we married, hubby sent me to buy a jock strap, needed for work apparently,. Convo at the store: Me: I need a jock strap, please. Asst: Yes, what size? Me: Oh, gosh - we've only been married a few months, um. Asst: That'd be adult, then.

Bruce Wayne would have been friends with Jeffrey Epstein.

None of the consultants from big name firms who encouraged universities to transition from academia to business are anywhere to be seen now their house of cards is collapsing.

The new Google Map images of Corryvreckan are amazing! Zoom in and you can see the whirlpool.

Kyle Rittenhouse already has a deep necrotized crater where his soul should be, so the effects of this bite shouldn't be anything new to him. For everyone else who lives in the Brown Recluse's native range--generally the Sun Belt--please make sure to be very careful when unfolding clothes.

Like the vast majority of spiders (certain Australian psychopaths excepted) the Brown Recluse does not seek confrontation and will only bite if threatened or trapped. To use words Kyle Rittenhouse will understand, Brown Recluses have a Castle Doctrine and abide by strict Stand Your Ground laws.

Homo Floresiensis was an extinct human species, only 1.1m (3' 7") tall, and it's just fascinating to discover the guy who the seats on South Western trains were designed for.

Reform wants to introduce a “patriotic curriculum”. The Rt Hon Geoffrey Geoff-Geoffrey has thoughts…

Being that vapes don't vape unless sucked … if you can smell a vape, you're smelling vapour that has been in someone's lungs.

NON SVM CHRISTVS!

I can't stop laughing at this headline

Those US-Iran negotiations in a nutshell: Iran sent 4 PhDs to Islamabad. The US sent a real estate developer, a son-in-law, a lawyer and a general.

🧵Posted yesterday that Melania knew Epstein before she knew Trump. This is Paolo Zampolli, her former escort agent & good friend of Epstein & Trump. He's the one who took Melania to Ghislaine's party where she met Trump. He's also the one who secured her Einstein visa All the dirty details below

I made a whole BBC TV series (2020) about the remarkable resilience of the people of Iran and their culture over centuries of threat and callous rule. You can watch it right here: www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m...

Spring is in the air

sorry if this seems harsh but I don't think the president should be allowed to post "a whole civilization will die tonight" and still be president

In two weeks the national press corps is going to laugh at his jokes and applaud him at their annual Hilton dinner for being a fun and interesting president to write about

The UK must immediately and unequivocally suspend support for the US military. The Government have tried to appease him, then they tried to say they're standing up to him. Words aren't enough - it's time for action.

My shower in Malaysia has an option I don't really want to try

This obsession for American pickup trucks on UK roads is insane. Dave, you live on a fucking estate in Doncaster not on the prairies of Montana. Tax the bastards to oblivion
