The tribes of Britain c. 540 in the time of Gildas.

see? here's the thing. A lot of people are like, the earth is fucked, it's beyond salvation, it's hit the tipping point, but time and time again we see that if we just fucking fixed the problem, it rebounds so incredibly fast. Imagine what could be done if people actually cared

It being St Patrick's Day, I'm reminded of the story of an Irish friend of a friend, who managed a bar in Jersey a few years ago. After an exemplary job running the place, he was given permission to refurb, redecorate, and generally revamp the place to his own liking. He had ideas. Lots of them. 🧵

Checking in on our tech overlords, one is on his way to Rome to give a series of talks about the antichrist and another has convinced himself that thinking is fake

Just found out that Top Cat only aired for one season. HOW IS THAT POSSIBLE? In my mind those guys were hanging around by those bins for decades.

The rest of the world to Trump:

Enticed by a £300 top prize and a succulent Chinese buffet, I have foolishly entered a Hong Kong style mahjong tournament at a casino in the centre of Leeds. I've never played HK mahjong and it's in 6 weeks.

Paramount were like “yeah we’re completely evil but you have to draw the line somewhere”.

NEW EPISODE! Europe's most glittering prize (aside from the Inter-Toto Cup) is on the line one last time as RVD takes on Jeff Hardy to decide who will be fed to Triple H in the WHC/IC title unification match they went back on after 6 months. Ah, 2002. open.spotify.com/episode/7EbR...

I've just had an amazing idea

Lol they’re so mad they lost their easy “the greens are a one issue silly tree hugger party“ trump card lmao

Even for them this is beyond embarrassing. I'm sorry you've never heard of Sugababes, Sophie Ellis-Bextor or Wolf Alice, you fucking weirdos

Wickes Tradepro Tool Theft Zone really went downhill after the second album.

Shakespeare standing in front of a chalkboard, considering what’s written. He raises his chalk and makes one change (obscured by his head, shot from behind). As music becomes audible, the camera swings around to show us that he’s changed “HAMNET” to “HAMLET”. ♫ WHAAAAT IIIII’VE DOOOOONE

I love to bleed them I love to set them I'm gonna flush them And I'm gonna fix'em COS I'M A GAS MAN YEAAAH I'M A GAS MAN

Margaret Thatcher alive in Serbia

There’s a terrible tendency that any time anyone comes along and starts saying things that are popular from a left perspective, established thinking goes ‘all very nice yes, but it’s not SERIOUS is it’ even whilst all the accepted serious people fail absolutely constantly at the absolute basics.

A reminder that neither The Art Of War or The Prince were intended as the genius tactical manuals that these chuds think they are, but basically as "Baby's First Book Of Tactics/Politics" for dumb royals with no real-life experience.

The three stages of anger.

Willow really is the best. ❤️

Last year my mum decided that for my grandad's 90th birthday she'd pay for me and him to go to Spurs vs. Leeds on 9 May, as he's a lifelong Spurs fan and he's never been to the new ground. It does increasingly seem like we'll be walking into the most toxic atmosphere of all time.

Anyways.

Me waiting for Slay the Spire 2 to drop
