Oh David, how can you be so right about the roots of modern racism and so wrong about your fellow contestants.

The jury deliberated for SEVEN hours on the sandwich case, and I will bet money six of them were just talking about different good kinds of sandwiches they’ve had and how they’d throw.

Suddenly when puberty blockers are given to cis kids, the Daily Mail (the same newspaper which backed Hitler btw) finally admits that "their effects are not permanent, and once a child lets their blocking treatment lapse, puberty will just continue as normal." Which is true for trans kids too.

FULL STORY: Border Patrol chief Greg Bovino, who has led a series of increasingly aggressive raids across Chicago, must obtain and wear a body-worn camera and report every weekday at 6 p.m. in person to the federal judge who has tried to rein in federal agents’ use of force. @wttw.bsky.social

I've started HRT recently and one of the stranger side effects is that I no longer feel the compulsion to shoplift. Can't tell my GP obviously. But it's intriguing nonetheless.

Dawn Butler was ordered to leave the commons when she called a lying Prime Minister a liar - now the deputy speaker tells her that you can’t call a racist a racist - grotesque protection of the worst people while the decent are hung up to dry

I'm in my fifties and have just had my first Botox treatment. I cannot express how I feel about it. Or anything else, for that matter.

The German company that makes the mechanical ladder used in the Louvre heist has used the image to advertise, with the text 'When you need to move fast' 10/10 response, no notes

when trans people take HRT to feel normal: “look at these depraved sex freaks performing their sick fetish in public, we should bully them out of existence” when cis ppl take HRT so they can fuck real good:

@zackpolanski.bsky.social is the first politician I've heard say something sensible about drugs in my life. Clearly the war on drugs has failed, it's wreaked lives and made criminals very rich, and we need to manage drugs in a far more positive way.

Feels like this will be a useful meme for the next few years

Hey! Geeks! Have any of you used arcgis (free, personal version) for mapping stuff? I've got a lovely map of all the UK LAs from the ONS site but want to COLOUR IN various ones and I cannot work out how to do it (had a quick google to no effect...)

Smashing Machine (2025) most enjoyable. Yes, Blunt is the downtrodden girlfriend with added MH issues & it's good that any threatened badness is not realised (thus he/the film) is a tad dull but it's a solid ***
