Nope, not me suddenly crying in public reading this, you must be thinking of someone else

An absolutely beautiful piece on grief and the small holes left behind from loss. My family have never been without a cat for very long precisely because the world feels emptier without them and it acutely felt.

Read this. Please.

AND HE WAS LIKE, BUT NOT MY FACE, RIGHT? AND I WAS LIKE WELL IT'S A FACE, SO

An impressive list, girls, but I know we can do better

If you aren't seeing skeets from some of your fave people, they might have been labeled "Rude" by bsky mods. Idk what they are thinking, I don't need a mommy to tell me who to be buddies with. Anyway, go into Settings > moderation > bluesky moderation (advanced) and turn Rude off.

Wondering why no one likes your posts anymore, even among your friends? It's because @jay.bsky.team and team have decided to hide a huge amount of content from all of our feeds by default. Here's how to turn it off. First go to the hamburger menu in the upper left corner

Stephen King: hey guys guess what? King: the blue wave is back!🌊🌊🌊 King: it's curtains for DRUMP! King: end of the line for mango mussolini! King: no more orange julius caesar! King: i haven't been so excited since we finally defeated bu$hitler back in '09!

THIS IS SO GOOD

this looks like a trick daffy duck would put up to get bugs bunny into "the oval office"

Excellent. What I'm getting from this is fridges and filing cabinets could be either archives or databases

Hoping this helps our colleagues across the industry

"hmm, what's that? Fireworks Night? Wow, must really suck to be an outdoor cat tonight. Anyway..." 😴

Important news: after ignoring two different types of cat beds by pointedly sleeping on the hard floor next to them, we finally found one that Roquefort considers suitable! It's important to us that this little man be as comfy as possible at all times now he is embracing the indoor life 😻

New awareness campaign

I am trying something in November. National novel-reading month, basically. It is the PERFECT month for reading (at least in the Western hemisphere). naomialderman.substack.com/p/november-i...

Lots of Ozymandias memes going around at the moment and I am choosing to believe they are all about this cat

look I know it's ragebait Graun-style but I am indeed raging at the thought of the Andrew formerly known as Prince potentially getting a six-figure payout plus a stipend multiple times my annual income to sit on his arse and not abuse any more 17-year-olds

Calling up Buck Palace to offer my elite services specialising in not abusing 17-year-olds for half the sum that inbred ingrate Andy will cost them

Genuinely such an interesting long thread on why these suits look crap and yet how a particular type of crap suit has become a cultural signifier for right-wing men.

this thread 👌

kind of annoys me when people use the aesthetics of graffiti to show they're edgy and cool while also calling for more punitive laws, which punish the graffiti artists who give that aesthetic its cultural meaning

Ctrl + shift + T for those it aids

LONDON (AP) — Buckingham Palace says King Charles III will strip Prince Andrew of remaining titles including “Andrew”, curse him to wander the Earth as “the nameless one”

you say "i asked chatgpt" i hear "i asked [an improv comedy group]" an improv group wrote this report instead of a therapist i use an improv comedy group

I hate to be this person, but this is not one of the Louvre suspects. As far as I can tell, no photos of them have been released. This appears to be a decade old stock photo, of a man who may or may not be a French jewel thief. Contain your thirst!

Yesterday I started my new MS meds. I was warned that the first dose is rough, but my MS nurse reassured me that the side effects are short lived and I'd be fine by the following morning. Friends, that was NOT TRUE. Today has been a total write-off. Finally feeling almost human again now!

“Are you wearing the-“ “The poorly but enthusiastically sculpted Samhain turnip earrings I made a few years ago? Yeah, I am.”

It's the Fesshole/Vagina Museum crossover event you've all been waiting for. Tons of you tagged us into this across all of our socials, asking for a fact-check. The consensus of the reply guys is that it Didn't Happen. However, this is in fact very possible. Here's why...

This thread makes a point I find myself coming to often these days. It's hard to make this point in a way that doesn't sound like a threat, but it's just a fact that for centuries the wealthy in America worried that the mob would come get them and did all they could to avoid that fate.

Good morning from these Halloween goblins

A couple of weeks ago, Trump struggled with a broken umbrella as he boarded Air Force One. Let me tell you how we got to this point — and the tragic downfall of the noble umbrella. 🧵

Derek Guy deep dive post, DEREK GUY DEEP DIVE POST! I love these.

But look how much fun she was having! 😭 Let the tiny criminal do tiny crimes, as a treat

#TraitorsGreekMyth Part 2! David Olusoga: Patroclus. David is calm, kind and watchful. As others raise the drama stakes, David calms the tensions, just like Patroclus to Achilles. I am obviously biased because I like him, but I hope he avoids what we must refer to as Book 16...

Apparently some folks are playing real dumb about skull symbols so let’s play a little game I like to call “Nazi skull or not a Nazi skull” First up, the Jolly Roger. This is a pirate skull, not a Nazi skull. It means you might get robbed, but prolly not genocided. With me so far? 1/x

If you missed our recent ‘Submitting a LILAC abstract’ workshop with the @infolitgroup.bsky.social catch up on the recording, which is full of ideas & advice on writing a presentation proposal for #LILAC26. Our call for presentations closes on the 13 Nov: www.lilacconference.com/lilac-2026/c...

Tried to sneak a photo of a cute doggo and accidentally had long exposure on and I believe I have created man’s greatest expression of art

no time to explain get in the spaceship from Flight of the Navigator

in place of a king, you would have a queen! dark, but also beautiful and terrible as the dawn! treacherous as the sea! short of legs and close to the foundations of the earth! all shall love her, and despair!

Roquefort wants to know why you don't appreciate his neat kitty paws 😭

Roquefort and I have been critterposted!! What an honour 🥰

in 20 years, the most extreme, reactionary, "return to tradition" masculinity influencer is going to adopt this uniform and you'll have to calmly explain that this was once considered non-traditional

I saw a tragically AI-generated version of this poster, so I have recreated a 100% human-made version for all your protest sign needs.

The weekend is here!
