I would simply throw a silver-threaded blanket over the haunted mirror that Tony Blair comes from and ring it with salt so that he can no longer communicate with our realm

just watched someone on Reddit ask for costume advice based on an AI generated image, then get absolutely bodied until they deleted the post.

If I was in charge of any well-off European country, I'd be Operation Papperclipping the hell out of all the fired US scientists

The alarming thing about the current discourse, though, is that the entire politicomedia class has come out to yell at the plebs for not understanding that their job is *so unique* that they should be explicitly allowed to run around hammered, stinking of booze and harassing junior staff.

Hey, look. It's a decent scan of this legendary image!

Into day 3 of 'YES, our lawmakers are very pissed from the subsidised in-work bar when they make our laws but you proles must understand: They do it late at night when they're tired and emotional, they're told what to do and it's so easy a dog could do it'

retvrn to Sega spending absurd amounts of money on sponsorship and arcade cab development.

ffffffffffffffffffff

morning

PSNI charged three times more 'terror' display cases relating to Palestine Action - a group only banned last year - than they have for loyalist paramilitaries in over 25 years. Amnesty NI said using terror law against peaceful protest was 'absurd'

EU rules on common chargers apply to laptops from today. It means that all new laptops sold in the European Union must now support USB-C charging

"Once immigration is fixed" is a very revealing phrase. It shows what a lot of Labour MPs (and the government) think of us. We are a problem to be solved, not members of the community like everyone else. And our lives must be made harder to satisfy some mythical Red Wall voters.

Absolutely incredible

if I had Stupid Money I'd build a house designed from the ground-up to be "haunted" and you can bet that I'd be deliberately engineering infrasound shenanigans

a ballroom has a core strategic weakness: the man in the back saying “everyone attack”

love 2 wake up at 4am anxious about an extremely minor work thing

Small "portfolio" landlords are often the worst landlords to rent from too since they're so obsessed with minmaxing their "investment" that every single cost you could put onto them is treated like it is going to bankrupt them

One of the most surefire pitches that one could make in the 90s was "Okay, it's like Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, but with (insert animal here)"

GOOD NEWS! Researchers have developed an HIV vaccine candidate that achieves something never before observed in the field: inducing detectable neutralizing antibodies (nAbs) against HIV within just THREE weeks after a SINGLE immunization which was further INCREASED after an additional booster.

Sherlock Holmes has officially entered the public domain! @charliejane.bsky.social discusses the Conan Doyle Estate's strict control over adaptations over the years, particularly when it came to the Great Detective's sexuality:

I am very knowledgeable about cat breeds.

I must say, the people being asked if they could stop drinking at work are definitely reacting in a way that people who don't have a drink problem would react.

This issue is a pretty neat illustration of why people are furious at politicians though. Not only are they allowed to indulge in excesses that would get us sacked, they get to do it on our dime with a pretty hefty discount too.

Oh wow really

I've seen lots of people argue what the best ever 2000AD strip actually is, but you frankly have to be a total fool not to realise this was its zenith.

Neil... Neil.. Neil, someone lives here, mate. Neil.

Move parliament to a new build near Crewe or Milton Keynes railway stations. Maybe Birmingham International. Nice semi circle chamber, that sort of thing. No alcohol on the premises. 9-5 working hours.

morning

The menu ( in Welsh ) of Caffi Spam at Colwyn Bay for the unveiling of the Terry Jones statue this afternoon.

Well done to @zackpolanski.bsky.social for calling out the fact he was being interviewed by a former Lab minister & husband of the current foreign secretary #GMB is now produced by @itvnews.bsky.social. How can they think this is tenable? Oh & Ed took it in good grace (not)

Lol what the fuck is all this defence of people drinking on the job I'm seeing? People who make laws for a living? Ok.

Fun fact: Florida's orange harvest is now only 8% of what it was 20 years of global warming ago. Increasing hurricane activity and more hospitable environment for disease and pests, has *already* destroyed the Florida orange industry. citrusindustry.net/2024/05/07/f...

Say what you want about "Michael" but I enjoyed the post-credits scene where Samuel L Jackson recruits Jarvis Cocker for his new initiative.

Today will forever be remembered for this world record broken in London

The ruling class has systematically degraded reality discernment and overshot the goal of manufacturing consent. now they're manufacturing "damn that's crazy" "who do fuck knows" and "yeah sure why not probably"

my friend jesse reminded me of my most triumphant ever $4 thrift store find. i keep this tshirt wrapped in velvet in my closet like a torah scroll

re the general discourse this morning I think I'm prepared to be controversial and say there are absolutely good tourists and bad tourists (or at least "tourists" and "worst tourists") and it feels silly to pretend that's not the case

been pattern making for a simple livery shirt. v satisfying but this is the easy part. haven't done any machine sewing since... Intermediate school?

My favorite art history genre is "Judith beheading Holofernes"

the wild thing is that the average costume level at the big UK LARPS is probably better than this now
