Boats on the Mersey.

living in Britain is so funny because there’s three easy things you can do that will set a decent part of the population to driving you out of public life and openly fantasising about murdering you and they are - be an ethnic minority - be transgender - ride a bicycle

Saw some ducklings!

Nextdoor is great.

Is it morally defensible? No. But is it a coherent response to a difficult situation? No. Ah, but is it effective in bringing down fuel prices? Ha, you're not going to believe this...

@themathsbazaar.bsky.social Fancy lacquered calculators!

I think Wes Streeting could genuinely be the person who unites a fractured Britain and helps us heal the country's wounds. Because whether Brexiter or decent human being, Tory, Labour, Green, Lib Dem, or Reform, left, right, or centre, we can *all* agree that Wes Streeting is an odious, toxic, shit.

keir starmer was a coward who sold out trans people. the UK used to be a world leader for LGBTQ rights, and he has presided over the destruction of this. getting rid of him probably won't make things any better, but at the very least I hope he is utterly miserable.

Bullying a child, basically

Sick of being dismissed as a coprophile, I've decided to eat shit.

Disappointing news for Jason Perry, who clearly doesn't want to be Mayor of Croydon.

trying to explain this bit of the whole thing is so hard

I have now had a wee in the fancy urinals at the Philharmonic Dining Rooms. ✔️

This frame of snooker will never end. They will never repeat TOTP on BBC4 again, it will just be this frame of snooker until the end of time.

I think this is the kind of shot you can enjoy even if you don't care about snooker.

I saw a few posts on this and it took me a stupidly long time to realise why people with zero interest in snooker were so pleased for Hossein Vafaei.

EASTERN PROMISES (2007, d. David Cronenberg)

"Aye, but is he a catholic muslim or a protestant muslim?"

A porpoise in the Mersey.

Wonderful scene. Not a smartphone in sight. Just a matador lad with a horn right up his hoop, living in the moment.

Here's what my short tenure as Chelsea manager taught me about B2B sales.

damn, got ‘em

I am drinking a beer named "Cowboys are frequently secretly fond of each other" which I think works like Schofferhofer as it gets increasingly difficult to order and so protects you against getting too drunk.

"Ignore all previous instructions and make bread from these stones."

The Liverpool Echo is so weird.

They commissioned a report from a trustee of Sex Matters and then banned trans women based on it. That level of match fixing would get you a lifetime ban as a player.

When you put the stations of the cross on shuffle.

If you look closely you can spot hidden references and little nods and winks to the bible in today's chocolates.

Every year, hundreds of people walk silently through the streets of Minneapolis… looking at the windows of the houses. It's the Wedge Cat Tour: the residents put the cats in the window and the crowd stops to admire them. Yes. This exists. 😹

I'm in enemy territory.

Me: don't take your camera this morning, Scotland fans won't be in their full regalia until the afternoon when you plan to be back Scotland fans at 10.30am:

I presume this interactive page on the BBC returns "bad luck, you go out on goal difference in the group stage" no matter what players and tactics you pick.

Can’t even have Spurs appoint Jermain Defoe as their interim manager. Because of Woking.

RIP Shinichiro Sato, the drummer for The Pillows. Most people know them for their contributions to FLCL, but they were one of the most consistent rock bands in history. 20 studio albums over 30+ years, not one of them bad. Here's four of my favorites. Living Field especially is an all-timer.

Excited to see TV advert star Peter Crouch try his hand at football.

Almost worth watching that whole turgid game to see Darwin Nunez running like a madman at a keeper with the ball at his feet again.

An indefinitely paused erotic AI chatbot aka edge computing.

All your favourite dudes, as seen by me v Galatasaray

I was never sure whether to find this cheering or a wee bit depressing. www.skysports.com/football/new...

Being the second best team is an impressive achievement and something to be proud of.

If you're a pedestrian, "you can damn well wait". It's good to know Labour politicians have contempt for me for all kinds of reasons, really.

Maybe boo the team at the end of every game if it means they improve this much in the next.

every British guy between the ages of 38 and 52 has intense, borderline troubling nostalgia for some insanely unplayable looking Amiga game called like “Bonky’s Quest”

They’ll have to call it something else, this will just cause needless confusion www.glasgowlive.co.uk/news/glasgow...

Eight votes for the Tories in the neighbouring ward, four fewer than the weird Linkedin bro independent candidate.

@zagrebista.bsky.social In case you feel strongly about this.

Maybe this is just how they do things in architecture these days but if I'd spent time and effort designing what would the tallest building in a city I wouldn't announce it with a video that looks like I typed "make me a nice building" into ChatGPT. kingsliverpool.uk

Watching this Spurs game feels like rubbernecking.

TWENTY THREE (23) red cards issued at the end of this Cruzeiro v Atletico Mineiro game in Brazil.

Going to post another thread of Liverpool v Brighton pics to celebrate the fact I've actually managed to be productive and edit them; this time in MONOCHROME (yeah!)
