I know it's not within the hundred most awful things here, but... the nearest penguins to Greenland are in the Galapagos, five thousand fucking miles away

Just saying but 'David Baddiel:Cat Man' is such a joy 🐈.

For anyone who's interested, James O'Brien is discussing Trump's comments about NATO on his programme this morning with traumtaised ex-military and bereaved families phoning in. Callers in tears at the sense of betrayal and anger. It makes for difficult listening. @mrjamesob.bsky.social

Misogyny much? Like boys can't be vile. They had two opportunities to elect women, and balls it up both times. So leave women and girls out of it.

457 British troops lost their lives in Afghanistan. Trump avoided military service 5 times. How dare he question their sacrifice. Farage and all the others still fawning over Trump should be ashamed.

This should be front page on every UK newspaper tomorrow. Help for Heroes and British Legion must be incandescent with rage. Wootton Bassett's stood still over 400 times as British coffins arrived back from USA's request of NATO article 5. Over 300 more lost limbs. A new low for USA's turd-in-chief.

Amazing stats on #winterwatch tonight. Domestic cats in the UK kill 55 million birds ever year. Our Lillie is like

😂

Britain isn't broken. You just hate multiculturalism and wish we were living in shitty 1942. Be honest.

He means Bored of Peace, right?

I know it's not #caturday but how could you not not love this little face?

The fact that a man like Farage who praised Putin, made himself Mr Brexit, and campaigned for Trump is considered anything other than a crank is a fairly damning indictment of the political climate in Britain.

I feel like America plotting to annex Greenland while masked state goons terrorise their own communities at will should encourage British press and politicians to reflect on what happens when you act like "far right" is an unfair slur rather than a necessary descriptor of a real political position.

Funny...

Blimey! Someone give this bloke Sam a record deal! #michaelmcintyre

But mainly embarrassing for the US. A second hand prize accepted by a man who has publicly stripped other women and black people of acknowledgement for their work, contribution and achievements.

the European mission to Greenland was fourth in the BBC news running order this morning, which feels a bit like doing a light "and finally..." item about the archduke's motorcade taking a wrong turn in Sarajevo

#catsofbluesky This photo came up as a memory on another platform. Our lovely Mishka 12 years ago. I still miss her quiet elegance and poise. She was a beautiful cat, a rescue who chose us ❤️

The Government is planning to send King Charles to the US to celebrate with Trump. Giving him a royal visit right now sends a terrible message that his behaviour is acceptable. We can stop this if enough of us speak up. Will you add your name to the petition? you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/ca...

Let's see what FIFA does now, with an unpredictable, warmongering dictator in DC, and both Canada and Mexico being threatending with invasion/bombing. So far, crickets. The silence is deafening. That peace prize looks f-ing embarrassing though, eh?

Looks like our holiday to Mexico in two weeks isn't such a good idea then...

Report X to Apple to get it removed from the AppStore: reportaproblem.apple.com/store/333903... And for Google Play, report the X app “com.twitter.android” here: support.google.com/googleplay/a...

I call on my party and my government to remove themselves entirely from X and communicate with the public where they actually participate online and can be protected from such illegality.

Deleted X in September 2024. Was has kept people there so long? The writing was already on the wall and the alarm bells were ringing.

Disgraceful article by BBC News. It's abundantly clear from the videos what happened. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

This sort of thing was shocking in the 1980s, when one of my academically-brilliant friends was insulted and patronised at interview for daring to apply to Oxbridge from a state school. In 2026 it's completely beyond the pale. www.theguardian.com/education/20...

"The dominant predator force".

🔥🇪🇺 “Europeans enjoy more free time than Americans, a higher life expectancy and lower levels of inequality – all with roughly comparable productivity. Whichever way you look at it, this is a significantly superior economic performance.”

Robson Green and Richard Coles retracing the steps of a holiday Mr H and I took to Northumberland in 2024. Happy times ☺️

Britain left the EU because people told us we had greater security and financial relationships with the USA. Happy now?

Love these pods.

#totp I'm growing my hair like the dude from Smokey.

Was too young to do the peace camp, so will have to settle for parkrun 40+ years on.

Oh excellent news. Brexit sovereignty strikes again. ‘Global’ Little Britain gets to plead with foreign powers not to screw us over. And foreign powers say no. We will be doing this shit for years. What an idiotically avoidable waste of our time and resources. www.farminguk.com/news/chlorin...

Just saying but Amol Rajan is so irritating on University Challenge. That condescending way he says "well done" when contestants get an answer right really grinds my gears - like they're dimwits or something. 😂

So..in the 48 hours I've deleted hundreds of emails from gmail with photos and attachments and managed to get my storage down to 85%. This morning, with no new emails in my inbox, it's telling me - again - that I've exceeded 100% of 15GB. Why is this happening. Now they want money for extra space.

David Lloyd wouldn't need to spend £0000s on TV ads if they looked after the members they have. Extortionate price hikes and no loyalty to existing customers, with them since opening three years ago. So, sod 'em. #davidlloydclubs

My God, what a pos

This is literally what the Telegraph campaigned for.

Man who bought up 33,000 acres of farmland to avoid tax and moved his business to Singapore after the Brexit he voted for wants your sympathy.

Michael Crawford? What THE Michael Crawford!? How disappointing...

Lovely morning for a #parkrun. Could be as many as 300 here.

Happy Christmas, everyone 🎄. Ours started last night with the traditional Polish Wigilia, but we plough on today 🧑‍🎄.

His voice was a backdrop to my uni and early career years. Always wondered if he got there OK..

Animals all around the country are being killed using catapults that have been easily bought in shops and online. We need to ban the sale of catapults to those under the age of 18 to stop these horrific killings. Add your name now: you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/en...

Anyone know where I can get celeriac? Employee at Tesco says they don't sell it over Christmas - though it's a Boxing Day staple for us. Loads of horse fodder like swede and turnip on the shelves though. And you wonder why British food has a reputation for being bland. Ffs.

Haha, yes!

The White House has been caught. The administration inserted a photo of Bill Clinton, Michael Jackson, and Diana Ross into the Epstein files and falsely implied it showed them with victims. In reality, it’s a publicly available fundraiser photo featuring Jackson and Ross’s own children.

Nobody works this hard for this long to cover up something this bad unless they are guilty.
