Monday mood: this Wren. #MondayMotivation 📷️ @aintright.bsky.social

Maybe this World Cup has been directed by Christopher Nolan and last night's game was actually the final and this is one of the group matches?

I was watching the London Athletics on catch up but paused for this. Given the utter hideous nonsense I might go back to the athletics #TheSport

Shit :( #TheBikes

When you didn't die at the Viking Battle Festival

This is a joy 🩷 #BBC www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/epis...

Roses are red Boxers use uppercuts

Bar that time the women were losing finalists in the 2023 World Cup… 🙄

When will my husband return from Christopher Nolan’s The Odyssey

Furious that Chris Nolan would disregard historical accuracy in adapting The Odyssey by making a "movie" with "cameras" instead of memorizing the entire story and then going on a nationwide tour to sing it to us while tripping on ergotized barley

FIFA, her eyes wide: “You foul Messi?”

the trouble with hydration breaks is that if you cut off one, three more tion breaks grow back

Getting a few likes on this. Here’s the video for those interested. But only if you want to watch it. m.youtube.com/watch?v=pZwv...

100% My school used slightly silly cup of tea video (made by police force) to teach consent. It included, if they have previously wanted a cup of tea that doesn’t mean they want a cup of tea now. And if they said yes to a cup of tea but then are no longer conscious, do not force them to drink tea.

I don’t mean to sound like some kind of pin-up, but I’m very tired of being this hot.

@marmaladekitten.bsky.social Never share this with G.

My son just told me is favourite sentence is: “I didn’t say we should kill him” because if you emphasise each different word it changes the entire meaning

I respect France's commitment to not working on a holiday.

Well that was pointless. All the players know where they should be standing. Instead they delay the game with their ridiculous posturing and exaggerating shrugging, just for the ref to spray some shaving foam in a line on the floor. What is the point? Dicks #TheFootball

4/ SUVs make collisions 14% more likely to kill pedestrians/cyclists than smaller cars — and 77% more likely to kill children (209% for under-9s).

3/ Human error is inevitable. Death and serious injury are not. The Safe System approach means we design streets, set speed limits, and regulate vehicles so mistakes don't cost lives.

2/ In the space of weeks: a crash at Green Street hospitalised several people, a car hit a corner shop in Portway, an 8-year-old was hit during School Street hours in Forest Gate, a motorcyclist was hit on Green Street.

1/ Four people die on UK roads every day. Someone is killed or injured every 18 minutes. 1,600 deaths and 28,000 serious injuries a year. This isn't statistics. This is normalised violence in our public space. 🧵

As an academic, I have decided to pre-empt AI taking my job, so I am going to take ITS job! I am going to start hallucinating, lying to my students, and drinking 700,000 litres of water

This is beautiful awful perfection.

Please head to St Mary's Welcome Centre in Walthamstow if you can help/donate food and water to residents being evacuated due to the fire in Wood St, Walthamstow.

Well I’ve spent the whole of #NorEng drawing the three English lions on a tote bag, time well spent even if we don’t win

Makes a change for England tbh

oh my god and I thought Andy Burnham was a shoo-in

My postman told me a joke today. Wife: I'm leaving you. Husband: For what reason? Wife: I have 14 reasons plus I'm sick of you watching the tennis. Husband: That's 15, love.

Spelling Bee isn’t allowing the word ‘buttle’. Which means Spelling Bee has never seen Clue. Poor Spelling Bee.

With Penelope Keith’s passing, I got to thinking about Paul Eddington, in his final days, facing the camera that one last time, despite the shitty hand life had dealt him, and the courage it must have taken to do so. Given the chance to spin some grandstanding bullshit, he chose to say this instead:

It’s 25 ° in London. I shouldn’t be trying to sleep, I should be in Kos eating dolmades & halloumi, walking on the beach, then drinking too many Long Island Ice Teas whilst dancing my arse off. Life is ridiculous.

The penalty cycle is turning back around in favour of players who can just fuck the fucking thing into the fucking net

@seismicshed.bsky.social I’m now in stitches!

I bloody love Tadej Pogačar #TheCycling

For you football fan weirdos. Type 'Erling Haaland' into Google and wait a couple of seconds. Just passing something on that I read elsewhere, I'd never heard of him before. @bobgriffiths20.bsky.social @sarf-london.bsky.social

He is not the real Count Binface; he inherited the costume from the previous Count Binface. The man he inherited it from was not the real Count Binface either - his name was Cummerbund. The real Binface has been retired for fifteen years and is living like a king in Patagonia.

If you open and close this stadium the right number of times it will tell your fortune

FIFA have confirmed Balogun’s suspension has been lifted and he *will* be allowed to stand in the Clacton by election

WE HAVE AVOCET NEWS!!! An Avocet spotted at RSPB Middleton Lakes has been confirmed as the oldest ever recorded in the UK. At 36 years old, it's lived more than five times longer than the species' average lifespan. First ringed in 1990, it's still out there doing Avocet things. Go on Avocet. 😍

Here's a thing. The Oval was packed tonight for the women's T20 World Cup semifinal. Pretty much nobody is covering it - the football world cup, the Stokes debacle, Wimbledon, they're all taking up the space. But still. The ground was totally full. That tells you everything about the state of it.
