Kim sighs. “No, Detective, you cannot.”

Weird. “Hostility to ethnic minorities en bloc” + “the social policy preferences of the craziest street preacher you can find” are not an attractive combo. Who would have guessed?

Find it funny we have our betters talking boots on the ground in Iran. Look at it! Its literally the geographical equivalent of fucking Mordor! They can go for decades fighting on their own turf. This is how insane the Western leadership has become.

someone showing a new work process isn't working by immediately trying to shove all their work through it even when it isn't suitable just because it saves them slightly more time. i hope a pigeon shits in their coffee every day for the next week

🚨 The House of Lords have STILL not passed abortion decriminalisation AND many are trying to repeal telemedicine that allows patients to end a pregnancy at home in peace and privacy. Please use this BPAS link to email, I promise it takes seconds! Please share 🙏 bpas-campaigns.org/time-to-act/...

OH MY GOD PERCY SHELLEY WAS THE ORIGINAL FOX MULDER

i already didn't like dubai but the more these people post about it the more i hate it

Cat, cat, cat, cat, cat, cat. Final batch is being trimmed!

Keep talking, asshole, ive already messaged the etsy witches

Calling AI "slop" has been one of the most effective instances of the public rebranding a product and it pisses them off.

if someone tells you "please put this number or this phrase in the subject line of your email" please do it because otherwise people like Ewa will get fucking annoyed when you sent like twenty emails with the vaguest possible subject lines EXACTLY UNLIKE WHAT WAS REQUESTED

One of the funniest things to come out of this are the brits who won’t leave Dubai even as it’s being bombed. One influencer adjacent guy went on a live stream on his balcony and said he’d rather be killed by Iran than go back to Wigan

Just been pointed out that Trumps ‘board of peace’ members dominates the nations in this evacuation order. Trump delivering only irony to the world with a sense that your pocket is being picked the entire time

over 15% of all American citizens have now replied to this obvious bait absolutely seething

no one see me i am sneak

First week in the BBC graphics department and already thriving

The Blood Moon

The observatory on top is too perfect. 'So, what you you do for a living?' "When darkness falls, I go to the horrible abomination, climb a ninety-storey staircase over five million dead people, and when I reach the obelisk, I take out a telescope and stare into the infinite void. And yourself?"

We could have had the Primrose Hill necropolis over here and the Gordon Bennett owl mausoleum in Manhattan. History has robbed us of some glorious death related architecture.

Every Labour minister

Good this. I know no-one here needs telling but the more Islam and Muslims can be demystified and shown as what they are, just people going about their day like we all do, the better. If one person with unsavoury views sees this and goes oh right, that’s how it works, that’s fine it’s done its job.

Haha, almost literally this: theonion.com/man-says-fuc...

well, i've just eaten my lunch

It's on my Patreon for £1! Such a bonkers story. www.patreon.com/posts/greeti...

I just did a talk about this, and I'm kind of sad they never built it.

Remember that YouTube essay people loved a while back by a "historian" called Sheehan Quirke that was just going on about Victorian design just because they stuck ivy leaves on everything like 'WHY IS EVERYTHING UGLY NOW?'. Because we design for practicality now! We don't build death pyramids!

Guarantee there’d be a premium to live next to the sepulchre in 2026. “Pyramid village”. Legal cases to block affordable housing because it blocks a boomer’s view of the granite

I think about this more than is probably reasonable.

"Interesting"

tried learning spanish but everyone said "gotta roll your arse" and I didn't like being threatened so I quit

"Foreign-born Citizens" are actually just called citizens. "Foreign-born voters" are just called voters "non-citizen voters" (yes, this is a thing here in 🇬🇧) are just voters.

It's really good, love a cemetery. Also see the Chinese cemetery in Thailand I went to once, they're like these cool mounds:

…but oh my god it would have been… quite the thing

If you're writing about or designing spaceships, particularly spaceships exploring strange alien worlds, the first thing you should look into is mobile Arctic research stations. There is no closer realworld equivalent.

Tbh that engineering project doesn't sound civil at all

It's much cooler that London got the Necropolis Railway instead, & if the Ghostbusters were to ever go international & open a London branch, the old terminus building by Waterloo would be *perfect*

One of the things I love about Victorian engineering is the nay-saying element. “This is too large, it’ll never work, your train will kill people going through tunnels at 500mph (not allowing for air resistance)”.

this is what they took from us

we used to be a real country
