Whenever I prune things with secateurs, I imagine I'm a 1960s gangster cutting off fingers.

Wait what

It is always important to pursue Russian navy matters to the bottom.

This may turn out to be one of the most photographed cars on the Internet, like the Roupell Street Citroens, but I don’t think I’ve seen it before. Whoever owns it and presumably daily drives it in Clerkenwell, you, madam or sir, are a hero #weirdcarBS #spotted

What’s your sign?

Here are the things plaguing Wildberries' ecosystem right now: Customers from Belarus have been waiting for their deliveries for 6 days. Nothing is arriving.

My feed is half ENGvARG and half airborne ops into Cuba, and the former is much more violent

Zelenskyy will be remembered as one of the great political manoeuvrers. He is head and shoulders above most contemporary politicians in terms of his ability to put Ukraine at the heart of policy decisions, and I’m here for it.

Clement bloody Turpin again!! Ffs

I’m sure this was the premise of a throwaway bit on AIOTM (AIOTM!) @herring1967.bsky.social

One of the reasons that present day right wing politics is so intolerable is that everyone involved in producing, editing and publishing this take knows that it's bullshit, and if circumstances demanded they would all argue precisely the opposite way without blinking an eye.

President Trump: Would you go to Moscow? President Zelenskyy: It's difficult. There are a lot of Ukrainian drones there. It's dangerous.

On my way, Clacton.

Just go away mate please. It’s exhausting

Rach's new-to-us Fiat 500C has an ancient TomTom installation which I'm trying to resurrect. After a few hours of playing about with different cables I've got it talking to the PC and I was amused to see its name. Never change, Fiat, never change 😂

Love this. NHS following some of the smarter PMI firms who’ve done this for a while eg Vitality. Obesity costs NHS £500 per person per year, so if they spend £50 per person per year to reduce it by £100 they’re quids in

We have reached the fuel trucks ran out of fuel stage of russian fuel crisis. Whitch offcourse means even less fuel for everyone else.

Every religion has a food rule that sounds like somebody got diarrhea once and made it everyone’s problem.

Enjoyable to see @samuelmarclowe.bsky.social at the SMMT. It’s always good when two panellists disagree on pretty much everything 😆 (amicably of course).

4-0 up and cruising and Cucurella STILL has to boot someone in the calf to stop a break. He has to be the most boo hiss character in world football at the moment

Haunting and amazing thread. What fantastic work @chriso-wiki.bsky.social does.

Fire Point are a company I will be investing in if they ever IPO… and I really hope they do.

Disappointed for Scotland. Did enough to draw with a very good Morocco side. Should have had a penalty. Lots of little kicks going unseen.

Paging @actualnames.bsky.social

WHY WAS THE STRAIT CLOSED WHY WAS THE STRAIT CLOSED, DONALD

There should absolutely be more childishness in naming conventions. Bravo SkyFall

Chinooks are, objectively, fecking awesome things

Brazil vs Morocco in New York last night, and yet all the locals care about is basketball. This is why we need to host major tournaments in actual footballing countries.

When walking anywhere on my own, I make all other pedestrians competitors in a race and create imaginary commentary in the style of Murray Walker. In 23 years, I've never lost a race. Even when someone reaches a destination before me a stewards enquiry always disqualfies them.

SpaceX board member Antonio Gracias's firm Valor holds $20.2B in equipment leases with SpaceX at an implied ~22.6% rate, basically credit-card debt rates, and >5x the company's ordinary equipment financing rate of 4.4%. No fairness opinion, no competing bids, no independent committee. Sweet. /5

I have been lost in an old copy of Autosport from 1956 which my mum dug out from somewhere. I feel it is only proper that @actualnames.bsky.social should be informed of the following:

Autonomous robot clown roundhouse kicks a small child

Does a goose own this car?

Reminds me of this abstract for an academic paper.

The ZEEKR car dealership burned down completely in Kyiv from the Russian attack last night.

entered a fake phone number when setting up my microwave and now i can't cook a corn dog because it won't turn on without 2-factor authentication and it's sending the eight digit code to someone else's phone

Not only is this the (somewhat scaled down) plot of the book Enders Game, it’s another example of the Ukrainians out-thinking everyone else. “We got real war in GTAV before GTAVI” etc

Ukraine is training drone operators using a custom GTA V mod that simulates hunting Russian Shaheds in the air.

In April, Crispin Odey dropped his £79mn #libel claim against us. This is the inside story of how Odey’s battle to reclaim his reputation backfired. It's about the brave women who spoke out against him — and the new allegations the two-year legal saga unearthed. www.ft.com/content/edbe...

👏🏼 Union Berlin coach Marie Louise Eta becomes the first female manager to win a game in Bundesliga. The first one in top 5 leagues as well, huge achievement. ❤️🤍

In advertising we used to call that the “duck”. Where you’d make a good ad but stick a duck in it. So the client would be like “yeah we love everything else but can you take the duck out, not sure re the duck?” And you’d go “oh ok thats a shame but if you’re sure, we can make it work with no duck”

It’s a big Ukrainian flag of a day in the Scottish Borders 🇺🇦 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 #SlavaUkraini #GetTaeFuckPutin

Someone has actually done this on Google 😂😂👏
