If the past really is a foreign country I’m surprised so many right-wingers want to live there.

I know it’s kind of not the point but I feel like naming your tech company after a Lord of the Rings Bad thing ought to be a disqualifier at this point: it’s a key indicator the founder has zero media literacy and is probably actually Team Sauron.

No Cards, huh?

"Pancreatic cancer mRNA vaccine shows lasting results in an early trial: Scientists caution that more research is needed, but nearly all of the patients who responded to the personalized vaccine are still alive six years later."

Was this GP struck off just because he asked a Muslim woman to remove her veil? How likely does that sound? 🤷‍♀️ Did he actually ask her to remove her veil 'because he was struggling to understand her?' Let's take a look at what really happened based on the tribunal reports... 🧵 1/25

Town team v Mansfield

We all have days like this

I hear neither Reform nor donor Delo want this news getting round. Via Private Eye

🚨 NEW: ‘Hitler was right’, says one of Reform’s top activists, Aaron Lee Taylor Taylor has campaigned from Reform’s head office and twice met Nigel Farage, has frequently shared material online that promotes Nazi Germany. hopenothate.org.uk/2026/04/14/n...

And there is additional strong evidence that Shingles vaccine delays or reduces dementia. Everyone eligible should get this vaccine

Over 500 schools in Slovakia have Hungarian as the main language of instruction. What is that doing to innocent Slovak children, Matt?

Regret to inform everyone that Peter Magyar beat the world’s smartest illiberal populist in large measure by working incredibly hard for 2 straight years, meaning the rest of us are just going to have to get off our asses and do shit rather than just complaining.

This Reform leaflet from three Gateshead candidates looks like a timelapse of the same person

AI footage in the quote post. However it's a real fact, with real footage available (See my link below). Now people who believed it have a false image of how octopus act, and people who recognise it as AI question a real observed scientific fact. Utter bullshit. www.youtube.com/watch?v=RN9B...

"Ruszkik, haza" = “Russkies, home country” (the "go back to your" is implicit) (the polite word for Russians is "Oroszok")

The extent to which Netanyahu has detroyed Israel's global reputation is hard to overstate.

But apart from that Mrs Lincoln, did you enjoy the show?

Do you like defenestrations? Weird German ducal families where EVERYONE is called Heinrich? Are you Swedish and like interfering in religious conflicts? The week on Untitled History Podcast, @jonnelledge.bsky.social and I talk about the Holy Roman Empire. #history cms.megaphone.fm/channel/the-...

I'm deep down the rabbit hole on FROGFISH, 60 species of anglerfish in family Antennariidae. They are deeply, utterly WEIRD & MARVELOUS. Most walk on modified fins. Others use jet propulsion. Some are capable of air-breathing. Some are "hairy", others blend perfectly in sargassum.

Chinese carmaker BYD unveils a recharge as fast as filling up with petrol. And no need to wear gloves. Certainly not coming to a forecourt near you in America because the fossil fuel giants and their puppets in government like making lots and lots of cool money from easily-conned petrolheads.

'toos do be like that, but man there's so much AI in this it hurts. Between the dude's arms merging like some eldritch horror to the dog phasing through the side wall....

1/ This Yanis Varoufakis screed made me so angry the only way I can salvage my day is to go through it line by line as catharsis. You are welcome to come on the journey toward my aneurism with me. An angry h/t to @sianushka.bsky.social for bringing this into my life. unherd.com/2026/04/why-...

Good morning! Behold my latest adventure in film!

🚫🇷🇺 Hungarian protesters chanted “Russians go home!” (Ruszkik haza) at Viktor Orbán during a campaign rally, hours after we revealed his foreign minister conspired behind allies' back and even shared EU documents with Sergey Lavrov. The chant echoes the main slogan of the 1956 uprising.

I couldn't breathe because I was laughing so hard. That bird's an asshole! 😂😂😂😂😂 Best with volume up.

Today is a good day for children! 450,000 will be lifted out of poverty thanks to the end of the two-child limit. We're celebrating this along with 17 other orgs with an advert in The Times. The advert has been funded by hundreds of small donations from people supporting @38degrees.bsky.social.

This Reddit post is formatted like a joke but it’s actually a very dry recitation - at times, direct quotes - of America’s public war strategy over the last month. This can’t go on. This is deranged. Impeach and imprison.

Not dead, just delulu. #trump #farage

As Arthur says it's bizarre to ask the King to interact with someone so dangerously unhinged.

Checked this three times thinking “can’t be real” each time:

Lovely! The journey from a Luton man writing copy for truck adverts, to the movie Airplane. Surely you can’t be serious?

Don't subsidise energy prices during a supply crisis: give cash transfers to low-income and vulnerable households instead.

This kind of radical civic equality should be an obvious norm. The fact it really isn’t, bar a handful of outliers, should shame most of us into doing something about it.

Unless King Charles nails an egg to a rabbit, he hates white people

Surely I’m not the only one who thinks this whenever they see a map of The Strait Of Hormuz on the news?

Is there a master list, so to speak, of child sexual abusers in Trump's circle (including all the January 6th guys)?

Reading about the making of John Boorman's Deliverance and you know that scene where Lewis (Burt Reynolds) somersaults into the waterfall...?

This is Molly. She was finally found a week after her human fell down a 180-foot waterfall while hiking together in New Zealand. Her human was badly injured and rescued by helicopter, but Molly was missing. A week later, Molly was found at the base of the waterfall and reunited with her human. 14/10
