It's real "Sam Gamgee boarding an Elven ship at the grey havens because he was ringbearer for half an hour" energy

My super modern regulatory plan is that any entity named for a thing from Tolkien has to publicly explain why Tolkien wouldn’t immediately throw it into Mount Doom

"you have a room temperature IQ" me, knowing that is 293 in Kelvin, the SI unit for temperature: th...thank you

Whereas my chest hair situation is...5. And you shouldn't have a countable amount of chest hair.

I love this. The purest essence of Kemi - incredibly wrong, bizarrely belligerent about it, and also wrong in a way where you just go “have you considered reading anything other than your Twitter feed?”

to avoid confusion I have made a little table of Mitford siblings

All these bizarre Kirk civilwashing pieces really are the logical endpoint of a decade where the constant invocation of free speech always seemed to involve wild obfuscations of what the speech actually was.

Manchester United: 2013-present

Grimsby win on penalties!

The mafia live on TV.

Bruce counting the band back in to restart the song at 3.03 after the fake-out ending is one of the great moments in music history

alright what's the dumbest thing we can get 500 people to go outside and protest about in the next few weeks, think there's a point we have to make here I'm thinking "bring forward the full release of Hades 2" but I'm open to ideas

At some point, surely, somebody in the oh-so-clever "everything will be okay, remember how Macron won the French Presidency?" strategy meetings is going to have this moment, surely, SURELY

Hating Sadiq Khan is a more reliable indicator for not being a Londoner than eating in an Aberdeen Angus Steakhouse is.

"The Israelis don't want us to film out of the window at the devastation inside Gaza. But I've spent 10 mins looking at it with my own eyes and I can tell you communities in the north of Gaza, that I knew well, are flat. There's nothing left of them." Jeremy Bowen www.bbc.com/news/videos/...

pretty telling comment here. Britain and America absolutely did feed and clothe Nazi and Japanese POWs during WWII. and they provided food and supplies to occupied territories as the war was won. the Hunger Plan by contrast was a Nazi thing

Hey girl, woke up to the news about the Iran strike this morning - wild right? What's he going to do next? Anyway, it got me thinking about someone else who flew into my life out of nowhere and exposed some things that I'd tried burying very deep... I suppose that's why I'm texting you now,

Very funny that Elon Musk has somehow managed to alienate both sides of a culture war
