SUE THEM IN COURT FOR PAYMENT! Get judge Judy to take their hairy bums across the hot coals! Except for the fact they have a limit of $5/10k on her shows

Map Men’s book had a whole chapter about News Map Gaffes! Very good read (and listen, it’s narrated by the Map Men themselves, maps should come as an additional download, but excellent accompaniment to the physical or ebook)!

McSteamy

@samkurd.bsky.social www.bbc.co.uk/news/article... that would be a lot of free coffees….

@samkurd.bsky.social you need to watch this.

What do we think? Whee-lock, wheel-ock, wheel-lock, helcock?

I do not get the appeal of wrestling. Especially staged women’s wrestling. Even if they’re in fully covering latex suits rather than skimpy wear.

If you’re ever in IKEA (or maybe Nordic countries in general) this stuff (Lingonberry juice) is worth a try. They serve it in the cafe, sell concentrated juice (that needs diluting) and bottles of carbonated stuff in the mini food court at the exits). It’s sort of raspberry ish, very light

Ya know, I think I’d have fun decorating show homes. They might not be “traditional” or “stylish” but they’d still be fun to do. And maybe a bit more realistic 😉

@samkurd.bsky.social are these what you were looking for a while ago? Spotted in aldi (in Warrington)

@samkurd.bsky.social give Odie some cuddles and pets from me, won’t you? And tell him *I* think he deserves the occasional bit of cheese. And tell him he’s a very special boy.

Looking sexy with a fresh haircut. Yes I am as sexy as the Fresh Prince à la the 90s.

Is it pancake day yet?

@samkurd.bsky.social Tesco was selling these for Valentine’s Day and I thought of you. So happy slow valentines! 😘

Today's thing I was irrationally angry about when I woke up this morning: Anthropomorphic kangaroos in kids' cartoons that don't have Australian accents

Jonathan Ross, is this you???

Me, pretty much every time I try and make a joke.

Why do cannibals always boil people whole in giant pots? Why do they never fry, grill, roast or anything else to people they want to eat? I mean, people seem to love fried chicken….

I want to talk to whoever decided that according to the Tevinter Imperium calendar, the Dragon Age starts in 1994 TE. That the fifth blight happened 2025-2026. Was this intentional? Cause 😭

The feminist angst of “freedom means wearing whatever one wants” vs “dressing certain ways allows others to form their own opinions of us that we can’t control”.

@samkurd.bsky.social did you survive the shopping trip?

Merry Boxing Day where the cats are allowed to play in all the boxes from Xmas Day for as long as they want.

American health is just so fucked up.

Baby Draco Malfoy is in this!

Anyone else want to join me for an introverts Xmas. Everyone hanging out in a room together, but they’re all reading a book or playing their games console or writing whatever. No screaming, or shouting. Just quiet with the occasional passing around of mince pies, and other snacks.

Also the likelihood of a population census requiring everyone to return to the place of a man’s birth. Talk about a ridiculous amount of travel for everyone to return to the place they were born. Which was also the reason why there were no rooms to be had.

www.bbc.co.uk/news/article... am I the only one who sees the name Cassandra Clare and think “isn’t that the plagiarism fanfic lady?” And wonder how she’s being published?

Tiny Tim..who NEVER died…

@samkurd.bsky.social merry festive season events, Sam!

@samkurd.bsky.social I’ve been watching this guys stuff for a while and thought you might enjoy this too

@samkurshan.bsky.social the creators of The Good Place have made The Man On The Inside, and I’m on episode 2 and so far it’s pretty good

Why do I get the feeling this person would also get mad and whine if the gingerbread had realistic gingerbread genitals to show they are, indeed, gingerbread MEN.

I have done Tidying, and put a Wash in. I have Accomplished something today. That counts as a win, right? Even if I haven’t cleaned, hoovered or polished. Right?

@samkurd.bsky.social found you a mug!

“We’ve identified what chemicals are there (in a room). We’ve also identified a number of unidentified chemicals.”

I still think Elf’s on the Shelfs are creepy and weird.

Watching a BBC show about policing in the Scottish Highlands and Islands. And everytime they mention the Isle of Skye…

Cats domesticated themselves because we had plenty of mice and rats (trying to eat our grain stores), and we had nice warm fires in our shelters.

@samkurd.bsky.social so I grabbed two of these from Marks while I was out (as they were half price). I was sort of hoping they’d be dinosaur shaped. But alas.

Or else have a Miriam Margoyles Christmas. Maybe with radishes. And aging gracefully.

Wynne from Dragon Age is meant to be in her mid-late 40s. Because to the 20 something writer, late 40s seemed really really old. So Wynne looks like a 60+ year old woman.

Not a robot, not a girl.

We need to make blankets with food pockets/envelopes a thing. One big pocket, not like individual legs hanging off the end of a blanket.

@samkurd.bsky.social I’ve just got around to playing/finishing Lost Records: Bloom and Rage and I highly recommend it, if you can ever pick it up when you can afford a treat or it’s on sale or something. Swann is basically Max Caulfied but with a ‘95 camcorder, but I love her far more

Excellent album cover art

@samkurd.bsky.social please give Odie some pets and tell him he’s been a very good boy.

Lady Jane Grey’s husband was called Guildford Dudley. Do you think they actually called him Guildford? Or did they only call him by his surname of Dudley? What could you shorten Guildford to anyway?
