Best. Art. Crime. Costume. (from Hailey Fuqua, a Boston coloratura soprano: www.instagram.com/p/DQhrnW9kpx...)

My phone has full optical character recognition of 47,000 photos. I can search individual words. I cannot search three words in quotes. Computers used to be powerful. That power meant something. It was power for making your life better in sovereignty to your own interests. And now we have this.

This is such a good illustration of how one's instinctive reckons are not necessarily reflective of reality, bc what do you mean that the Jackets are not actually Doing Crime that much compared to the league ...still too much crime compared to the PK efficiency however

i'm thankful for all the different ways i can eat potatoes

A couple more shots from last night

very cool to see cricket australia supporting this initiative to find trans and gender non-confirming people their place in cricket. big contrast to what's been happening in england....better things are possible 🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍⚧️ daisycutterzine.wordpress.com/2025/11/13/t...

Hot damn HSH!! #wbbl

It does feel slightly wrong to not have the benches at NSO anymore, that was such a nice spot to sit #wbbl

#CritRoleCatchUp "i was thinking about it so I had to say it out loud" Ashley continues to be reeelatable

It was really cold out but worth it.

#CritRoleCatchUp i said this in the group chat last night but I am still laughing at the seductively murderous kelp incubus situation Liam O'Brien characters and the irresistible urge to follow an attractive man into danger 🤣

#lrt horribly pertinent to NZ news right now too

"You can't un-invent AI!" We can't un-invent asbestos either. That doesn't mean we have to use it.

Just read The Mandela Brief, about Kentridge, who also served as a lawyer for the Treason Trialists, Bram Fischer, anti-apartheid clergyman Gonville ffrench-Beytagh, and at the inquiry into the Sharpeville massacre. Now reading Biko's I Write What I Like. Biko would be 78 now if not murdered.

Ugh, sorry for RTing this yesterday, I did not place this dude's name 🔪

Leaving aside everything else it seems clear that they gave the date in UK/Europe format not US

Here's 7 Academic Writing Month (AcWriMo) resources for you. Happy writing ✍️💻 Please share with a friend 🫶 1. A live podcast recording about public writing for academics with my friend Lisa Munro, PhD @llmunro.bsky.social. That'll broadcast on YouTube tomorrow, Wednesday, November 12. #AcademicSky

In the words of William Goldman: never go up against Beth Mooney when anything is on the line #wbbl

After midnight means delete and repost without autocorrect

Finally worked out who Emma Holland reminds me of, and it's Ebony Hoskin #TaskmasterAU #Scorchers #wbbl

#lrt I tried the last two summers to find a social team, especially for people who are absolutely rubbish at sport and honestly struggled to find info on ANYTHING that wasn't grade level stuff. Big opportunity to improve there imo for local clubs.

new post!! an ode to the social benefits of cricket clubs + a request for blokes to get off their arses and help start clubs for women to get the same experience! daisycutterzine.wordpress.com/2025/11/11/a...

Okay so are the lights at AB field cursed or something?? Bc ooof. #wbbl

Zadie Smith.

Chloe Ainsworth is just sooo fun to watch 🧡 #wbbl

Guys! Drop Crocs!! 😱 www.bbc.com/news/article...

Not an exaggeration to say I'm both a writer and an English teacher b/c of Lloyd Alexander. My 4th grade teacher read to us from The Book of Three every day after lunch, and I was hooked. I wrote to him that year, and he not only replied, he took a 9-year-old's question seriously. (More in alt text)

Every time Katie Mack goes on her back foot i flash back to her stepping on her stumps in the WBBL08 final and get the cold sweats again Like so unlikely to happen let alone again but: hoo boy #WBBL

Thank u jackets 💙 #cbj

FYI if you’re looking for ways to help refugees in Sudan, the Cut/NY Mag has put together a list of reputable orgs helping people: www.thecut.com/article/how-....

hilarious stat on TSN just now: anze kopitar is the leading scorer in the nhl for slovenians all time with 1286 second place has four points.

Antipodeans - it looks like Aurora Australis will fire up tonight, from mainland Australia (where sadly the magnetic pole is tilted away from us) that would mainly be red beams (from the highest up oxygen ionization), but maybe green in Victoria and Tassie spaceaustralia.com/news/aurora-...

happy deadloch s2 announcement day please enjoy this edit I made years ago of eddie mispronouncing literally everything

I got my 10th Covid booster yesterday and the pharmacist said I’m the only young patient she knows who’s kept up to date with vaccines. Just a friendly reminder that anyone over 30 can get boosted every 6 months in NZ. Every bit helps!

There was a spiritualism boom after the 1918 Influenza Epidemic. AI grift is just that for the COVID-19 era, fucking fight me.

Also while I am being a PSA account, extra lorde tickets for NZ and Aus dropping soon, so if you missed out go check your ticketing supplier

NEW DEADLOCH IN MARCH

Now this is the kind of galaxy brain angle that I love

#USpol ofc but the point absolutely stands in broader terms too

(which was a good enough quote that it had to go in the footnote)

Man, I was all excited going to read the Hansard report from the day the lesbians abseiled into the House of Lords to protest Section 28, but all it says is "[Interruption]" 😂

Just like the Hannibal-esque Tumblr fungus post permanently etched on my brain, you cannot kill James Bond in a way that matters. He can die one million times and make us feel it every time and pop back up just fine with zero diminishing returns. He is the Wile E. Coyote of espionage.

In the century leading up to 1975, nearly 6000 freighters went down in the Great Lakes. The Edmund Fitzgerald was the last. The last. In 50 years, not a single commercial freighter has been lost in the Great Lakes. Why? It's NOAA. Of course it's NOAA.

If the barrel keeps having rotten apples put in, or apples are turning rotten once inside, at what point do you accept there’s a system problem? Why are rotten apples put in? Why are they going rotten once in? And why aren’t (more) politicians asking this about police?

The cat is shedding so much that after I brushed him I had to brush myself as well bc so much fur had atomised into the air and was just slowly settling on everything

#CritRoleCatchUp Travis visibly dying inside when everyone else loses it over how cute the leaf sheep sea slug is, crol

#CritRoleCatchUp considering the one thing I do know must happen soon I am kinda worried Otohan is about to torture FCG to death 💀
