Having your first mince pie is the winter equivalent of having your first wee on a night out

This is refreshing. Well worth a couple of minutes of your time.

Joy. That's what is missing way too often from the current discourse on learning and education. I don't mean being overtly happy all the time, nor having endless fun at school (as if!), but an underlying belief that learning can be a joyful, engaging process, not just stuffing more into your memory.

Underreported News Alert! '2010-2023, energy from wind lowered electricity bills by £14.2bn. A reduced need for new gas infrastructure saved £133.3bn. Consumers paid £43.2bn in green subsidies. A net reduction of £104bn in energy bills.' #politicslive www.theguardian.com/environment/...

Love this! Said this many times before, but: There’s no other medium that so routinely plays with both form, and the reality it constructs, as comics. I think that sense of play is fundamentally part of why children love the medium, and why publishing dropped the ball for so long in not making them.

Straight to ‘let’s have a debate about whether racism is racism’ for *almost* all of the UK media. Nothing learned from the lessons of Brexit, Trump & Johnson. But on we go.

Unbelievable… Framing racism as a matter of opinion is how prejudice gets normalised. If someone’s “driven mad” by seeing Black and Asian people on TV, that isn’t realism, it’s racism. You should be ashamed to dress that up as discussion

Yes climate breakdown means more turbulence for flyers. It’s also on track to heat the planet by 4C+ this century, kill billions of people & collapse our civilization. Keep on seeing the deadliest crisis our species has ever faced framed as some minor consumerist inconvenience.

🔴Asylum hotels are in nobody's interests. They're bad for new arrivals, bad for local communities - and it's not a great look for the government, either. So why, when it's costing £15 billion, can't they just get on with it and close them? My thoughts.👇 open.substack.com/pub/nicolake...

If you're watching advertisements on tv and counting the races of the people in them you're not only a massive racist - but you're sad as fuck.

My older bro is sorting through his old comics… GotG looked a bit different in 1979…

I guess I'm just not a “block and move on” person. The same divisive rhetoric, the same right-wing gaslighting... it’s tedious, it’s toxic, and it needs to be called out now more than ever imo. Fuck em

Yet another mixed-race couple in our British adverts. Sadiq Khan's Britain.

Chris Philp is an arse. While He was a minister there were the following mistaken releases of prisoners. April 2021 to March 2022: 54 releases April 2022 to March 2023: 81 releases April 2023 to March 2024: 115 releases This included serious sexual and violent offenders. Pot Kettle

Mrs M at HD stad Bit jealous ngl…

THE ADVENTUROUS AUTOMOBILE TRIP (1904) directed by Georges Méliès is the earliest example I have seen of the cinematic "fruit cart!" chase scene. Each character and every orange were meticulously hand-colored on every frame of every print by an army of skilled women with tiny brushes.

Just spotted th’Animal taking the Moo for a poo with one of my hats on! Peaky Blinders fancy dress for a party tonight apparently… 🤣

Fudge duty @bwianair.bsky.social ! Bit pistachios cost eleventy billion quid so I’m using some home dried cranberries. And dark spiced rum. And orange

If Sarah Pochin doesn’t lose the whip we can only assume her disgraceful racist comments are endorsed by her party. And if diversity on TV is really driving her “mad”, maybe she could try educating herself on why it matters - and why her language was completely inappropriate for an MP.

Two weeks on the bounce that our resident Narci-nonce has appeared to watch The Animal playing lax without any need/connection. It’s reassuring that it’s not just us picking up on his unwanted presence Am keeping receipts
