I am genuinely considering starting a YouTube series where I document the numerous issues I experience as a driver who observes and sticks to the speed limit.

I defy anyone to discern if a bay leaf was or was not used in the cooking of any dish. Bay leaves are the biggest culinary scam of the last 100 years.

What kind of crazy risk taker doesn’t do this anyway?

@willsmith.fun I’m not crazy right - there IS a problem with websites presenting ads for bizarre stuff like foot fungus treatments which is divorced from anything related to stuff I would have searched for myself? Am I crazy?

Iran already couldn’t develop a nuclear weapon under the terms of the agreement Trump inherited!

Bangaranga.

I think Chris Mason instantly stopping an interview in order to yell at a distant minister ‘WHERE DID IT ALL GO WRONG MINISTER’ is the most irritating thing I’ve seen this year.

Why do I love this game so much? Something about it definitely resonated. The framed and installed Hobs Barrow poster:

I really tire of the stock pictures the BBC website uses for everything, especially ‘concerned person at petrol pump’. It did make me wonder if there was ‘happy person at petrol pump’ stock imagery, and there is! Roll on the use of this!

All things considered, the survival rate on the Titanic seems pretty good?

Has @patrickklepek.bsky.social seen www.bbc.co.uk/news/article... ? Roblox seems like it should not be legal in its current form

www.bbc.co.uk/news/article... Real ‘I’m sorry if you feel offended’ energy from Benn here. Honestly the decision to double down on Kanye is even weirder than the original booking.

I am back. I am not under the table. The dog it was that died.

One of my lasting pet peeves is people mentioning what year it is as a supporting factor in an argument. ‘It’s 2026, and look at this ketchup!’

Maybe I’ll go to Taiwan.

How is it that Grayson Allen looks like all three Beastie Boys?

Macron - startlingly cool in aviators.

Stephen Malkmus’ first solo album was released 25 years ago. Good lord.

I’d be genuinely curious if there’s any footage of an NBA player believing they actually did commit a foul after one is called.

If I Stop Reading Mein Kampf and Writing “No!” in the Margins, Then the Nazis Will Win

Extremely this. The government should not be on Twitter. The BBC should not be on Twitter.

Cultural sanctions against the US, do it now!

The guy is unhinged. He’s off the deep end.

It’s wild to treat a chatbot like it can give an official response to a news story. You could make it give 10 different contradictory responses with no effort. You could fill an article with ‘in response, Grok said…’ and then have that lead down 10 wholly different paths.

As a person who watches a lot of NBA, at this point I’m struggling to remember how the American national anthem is meant to sound when sung by a human.

When Banjo-Kazooie was released I received it on release day. I remember my mother suggesting I wait a day to play it and I thought that absurd. 25 years later, I get it!

New Veronica Maggio! This is not a drill!

I’m known for not being fun, but my latest not fun opinion is that Letterboxd reviews have eaten themselves and the platform should delete every single one and ensure they never come back.

If there was justice in the world that would have been Veronica Maggio finishing Glastonbury

I didn’t go to Stockholm just to get these Veronica Maggio vinyls which seemed completely impossible to get from the UK, but these are extremely nice to now have

@shaunaitcheson.bsky.social look at this guy, superb stuff

Trump’s pick for Postmaster General is just going to be some guy who does loads of middling Snapchats or something, mark my words

There’s a bit in Excavation of Hob’s Barrow where you go into the pub bathroom and there’s this intense mechanical sound suddenly whirring in the background - really great atmosphere building, the instant sense something is weirdly wrong with the town.

Masterclass in poise by Zelenskyy.

So Avowed seems superb

It’ll always be El Golfo de Mexico to me

The cool thing about being a Miami Heat fan is you get 3/4 of a great team and 1/4 a team who seem to forget what the object of basketball is

I’ve always been the world’s number one Andrew Wiggins fan, I can guarantee I knew all about Wiggins before he joined Miami.

Let Twitter die.

Not a serious country

Niggling desire to watch WWE again now it’s on Netflix. Is this it, is this my midlife crisis?

Is there a novel called The Death of the Author? I’ll write it if there isn’t

What kind of sicko is a ‘new Facebook user’ anyway?

Feels like the most fitting response to anything Musk says now would be to laugh at him, roundly and squarely, the same joy you get from laughing at how pathetic Hitler is in Jo Jo Rabbit.

Outrageous choice from the UK

I’ve become so obsessed with checking to see if other drivers are watching video on their phones while driving that I’m now just as much of a risk as them

Brutal, this is basically a fatality from the BBC to this parking company

As Lydia Loveless once said, there’s nothing quite like some relaxing time off to help you freak out about your entire life

Turning off the post-processing features and correcting the aspect ratio on televisions, one hotel room at a time
