"You run like a Cassowary!" (not that much of a burn, but memorable anyway.)

Horse Whisperer? Or Neigh-sayer?

I enjoy misnoprunciating long words, especially mixing up mutlisyllabic words (I call it 'spooronism') Anyway here's a new animal based on the word 'australopithecus' this is the AUSTROCALOTHICOPUS (a primitive and not very clever cat from southern California)

From a walk earlier this afternoon... A whole murder of crows. (This is just a few of them)

In case Christmas isn't a happy time for you or someone you know. Please share

This is 100% accurate, I know there is a small raft of dudes out there who like to try to slam how I do the man thing, and my reaction is and has always been, lol, no, my dudes, I don't take man lessons from boring status anxious try hard bigots

I recently rediscovered this - it's from 2004! Enjoy! youtu.be/6DDkwdPaYmk?...

Some of you have forgotten that only three years ago you were perfectly capable of writing a text, writing an email, telling a bedtime story to a child, and it should worry you that powerful companies have convinced us we can’t do things we’ve been doing since the dawn of time.

I don't like gingerbread, but I would eat theses GingerSheds

BOB CRATCHIT: ♫ There's something in the wind today that's good for everyone. Yes, faith is in our hearts today, we're shining like the sun And everyone can feel it, the feeling's running deep After all, there's only one more sleep til Christmas. ♫

there’s a woman across the aisle on the bus crocheting a pocket onto a cardigan *that she’s wearing*, incredible, a thing of beauty

If you were to make a romantic or special meal for a loved one, the meaning and worth comes from the effort you put into it. If you just bunged a bunch of ready meals in the microwave you would very rightly earn a look of disdain. The work and effort and intent is inherently tied to the value.

Early on, I though this would be my favourite para but it was not.

I enjoyed reading this

Astonished at the number of creative intelligent discerning people who casually use “I asked Chat GPT” when talking about their daily lives. AI is bad, the work of bad people, who hate you, normalised with bad intent. You wouldn’t say “I wrote to the Daily Mail” I wish people had more shame.

Today marks the anniversary of Graf Spee being scuttled, and a unique victory for the British diplomatic service

I heard there was a secret meat With paprika, and spicy heat But you don't really care for sausage Nduja ...sorry, I can delete this. I've just seen a few posts in this format and I wanted in.

The Battle Of The River Plate is a Christmas film

In the grand library, surrounded by luminaries. Detective with pipe in hand, about to break the whole case wide open. Me: IT WAS ME. I DID IT. I MURDERED THAT MINCE PIE.

Anyway, if you think it's vaguely fucked up that Nigel Farage could well become Prime Minister on just 30%-or-so of the vote Join the campaign for a fair & porportional voting system, before it's too late! 👇😱

I have come to terms with the Thing I Hate not being made for me, and have moved on to two splendid pastimes: enjoying Other Things with my time, and being happy that other people enjoy Their Thing.

We report late afternoon: we come out at sunset to look at distant squiggles caught in light. It is cold, and the sun goes quickly, so we are back inside within minutes. It is really good; our cheeks burn, our nose runs, and we are still smiling when we meet eyes in the mirror.

Ich hope thou knowest that thou art a miracle. Your being heere doth make the worlde a bettir place. Plese be kynde to yourselfe. Give helpe when you kan, and aske for helpe when you neede.

With this piece of bread on the ground in Ottawa, Canada and the one below in Perth, Australia, @drstip.bsky.social and I have successfully created an Earth sandwich. The hot dog vs sandwich debate is concluded. If the Earth is sandwiched, everything is a sandwich. HAPPY EARTH SANDWICH DAY!

"Migrants who came to the UK on skilled work visas in 2022-23 will make a net contribution of £47bn to the public finances over their lifetime, according to new estimates from the government’s Migration Advisory Committee." Not surprising, but some observations (1/n) www.ft.com/content/10da...

Hi @adblockcardiff.bsky.social We don't want this. If you have any good hints on how to object and stop this, it'd be appreciated. #Cardiff

Butterfly cake? Mate, I remember when Colin was just a caterpillar.

Wait. This isn't a cognitive test. This is a cracker joke.* *Requires understanding of what a UK "Christmas Cracker" is. Oh never mind.

I’ve posted this before but the light was perfect today- a little Victorian cat paw in a brick at the front of the old Norfolk & Norwich Hospital. As this is on the front-facing corner of the main gates, the bricklayer quite clearly put it there on purpose, at a height where children would spot it.

"I'm not in denial, I'm in open rebellion" damn that quote goes hard

A small reminder, especially if you struggle with low mood in the winter, that this is just 8 or 9 weeks away, fewer in some cases 👇🏼🌱🌱

If some guy stole my shit and made millions off it while wiping out my job prospects, and you, as my friend, bought that guy's cheap mass market replica of my shit, you and i would for obvious reasons have a problem. It being a massive company, not a guy, actually makes it even more of a problem.

A million times this.

The human condition.

It's the 7th of December!? A day that will go down in INFAMY!

Starting point with immigrants is to remember that they are fellow human beings. Like you and I. How would you want to be treated?

I'm so mad that I understand this

Just imagining how much better it would be if ALL news stories about vaccine-preventable illnesses were illustrated with pictures of people with the disease, not pictures of needle injections. If you must show something that people will find scary & unpleasant, make it the disease, not the cure.

It’s December 1st … happy advent calendar day 1! youtube.com/watch?v=Gkcj...
