I’ve done something terrible

“You have one remaining wish.” “Summon a hydra in the middle of my enemy’s fortress, but one with so many heads that any new heads will be crushed immediately, creating an ever-expanding mass of hydra heads that will destroy the entire stronghold.” “You mean…?” “Yes. A hydra-djinn bomb.”

Installing Discord on my Honda Accord’s media centre to see if the whole thing annihilates like matter and antimatter.

Only 90s British kids will get this

It's that time of year again.

When I used to write for The Guardian, every time I wrote the word “meow” the editors would change it to “miaow”. It used to really get on my wick. Don’t try to make my cats sound like your upper middle class London cats, you fuckers. My cats did not go to your posh cat schools. They say “meow”.

At least Thatcher's grave remains a gender neutral toilet. The queue is going to be murder now it's the only place we're allowed to piss.

There's a lot of bad Trans news about today. If you want a safe space to discuss it, or just somewhere to be silly and ignore the cruelty of the world Emoria has created that space.

paradox forum nerds be like

two of the four escalators at Cutty Sark DLR not working today. a station which only reopened last month after an 8 month closure specifically to fix the escalators.

so the chinese tax code has the registration taxes for both land vehicles and watercraft under a single item of "vehicle/vessel tax" and there's this joke referring to situations like this that essentially goes oh well now you're making use of the *vessel* part too

I wish to make a complaint about self-raising flour. Not one single time has it ever raised itself into the cupboard! Lazy sod.

I don't think I'm getting that hand back any time soon...

The US-sanctioned Russian-flagged handymax tanker PEGASUS (9276028) keeps going in and out of the US blockade perimeter, just out of spite. We have multiple satellite images confirming that this is not an AIS spoof.

I am always having so much fun with scale drawings. These images are usually depicted quite small on a page in books, there just to show the size of the animal. I love adding some extra details and funny situations to these. :) Here is a series I have just made for an upcoming book. #SciArt

So it turns out if you go cybernetic in Stellaris, then there's a risk that your species will invent the War Thunder forums.

If the actor with British accent is evil then you’re watching Sci fi. If the actor with a British accent is good then it’s Fantasy. If the actor with a British accent knocks something over then it’s a Rom com.

Post a meme made by you

your morning earworm and eyeworm. There was a period in the 1980s where the Pet Shop Boys were throwing out S-Tier pseudo-story music videos. Often with big name actor friends. Joss Ackland is glorious in this one. "I smell youth" youtu.be/FyWnABhpGU4?...

If you see this, post a Star Trek (or two).

I think this maybe the most niché bit of trivia I’ve ever heard.

I presume Streeting is struggling to get appointments with the 4 different doctors he thinks are necessary to allow him to transition out of government.

I told you this place is always crowded, we should’ve called for a reservation 😩

When the ancient Romans believed that Britain was a strange and terrifying land full of ungodly barbarian magics, this is what they were thinking of

Chad Johnson is CEO of 'Grain Weevil'. His son did robotics competitions in high school, which inspired this little fella that breaks up hardened surfaces & levels grain to ensure it behaves like a liquid, avoids clumping. This probably saves 10-30 human lives a year. NO BOOTS IN THE GRAIN.

Labour MPs calling for an orderly transition but unfortunately their government needs to be at least 18 years old with four doctors to sign off first

MAN: Hello, police? It's a terrible thing, you see, my wife was killed last night, I was hoping you could send someone to investigate OFFICER: Certainly sir, the great detective Columbo is in town. Go and see him, he will solve the case MAN: Ah, I see, very good. Oh, officer, just one more thing,

A fellow Labour Party member once described Wes Streeting to me as Zippy from Rainbow if he'd been radicalized by Mumsnet. which is a very specific set of references but also disturbingly accurate.

BBGN is truly a cursed hull classification.

This 1952 memo from the Pentagon UFO files is superb There is no point preparing for aliens ‘because no one of consequence is going to take this rubbish seriously unless it happens. At that point, our policy will be determined in the traditional manner of grand panic.’ 🤣 www.war.gov/medialink/uf...

Happy 100th Birthday to Sir David Attenborough Thank you for being a friend to all animals and for helping the world to cherish us x

I still love the theory a Year 6 child proposed to me that David Attenborough is actually God and he got fed up with people not noticing the amazing things he'd created, so he made documentaries to show off.

Please sir, my first past the post electoral system, it is very sick.
