Must be hard for a Met Officer to solve a murder without being able to turn the cameras off 🙄 #traitors

Film # 5 of 2026. #CarryOnCowboy Not great. The only brilliant thing is the casting of Charles Hawtrey as Chief Big Heap. Somehow it’s absolute genius to give no explanation as to his perfect English speaking and magical mincing performance. As always, he is solid gold and the highlight of the film!

Hi @thetimes.com This video is now 3 years old. It was clearly fake news at the time, and is even more fake news today. The firm didn't attract a single client, and the man making the claim in the video has been ousted from the law firm. It's time to publicly retract. youtu.be/TofQjUf6jtY?...

An autistic man listening to his friend’s tedious droning has surreptitiously set a reminder on his phone to remind him when to nod and smile, sources have revealed.

"Sir, it's CEEFAUX" "What?" "They've gone MORE NICHE sir" "Dear God, don't they have any idea about social media?"

Can’t believe we are still having to describe the term “ambulatory wheelchair user” to people… And that most wheelchair users can, in fact, stand up, and even walk a bit. Sigh…

Happy Fiftieth Birthday Rentaghost!

The Free Speech Union commissioned a "security" report on us, so we tested their security. Turns out - it sucks. We've now published the names of everyone who has donated to a FSU fundraiser, along with how much they gave and to which campaign. www.transbashback.com/fsu.html xoxo BASH BACK

Film # 4 of 2026. #CarryOnCleo Patchy. A cast trying their best with fairly flimsy material. Part of our Carry On marathon. We shall soldier on. The thought of Kenneth Williams and Charles Hawtrey keeps us going!

Film # 3 of 2026 #TheGhostOfFrankenstein Absolute dog shit. Watched as part of an ongoing mission to view all films which fall under the Universal Monsters banner. A plot-free retread which isn’t even accidentally fun or exciting. A stodgy plod - which felt far longer than the 1hr 7m runtime.

@morgfair.bsky.social Hi. Can you repost this beautiful dog. Her name is MELIA. At the shelter 843 days. She needs a quiet adult only home. No dogs. Cats are ok. Town of Hempstead Animal Shelter (516) 785-5220 3320 Beltagh Avenue , Unit Wantagh, NY 11793

2026 can absolutely get to fuck already.

What a bloody night. Was washing everything I needed for my trip to Amsterdam (leaving at 07:15 - yes I could have done my laundry earlier in the week, but ADHD) and the tumble drier blew up. Literally. There was smoke. I’ve had to buy a new travel outfit at… TESCO. Dear lord. Finally in bed.

Film #2 of 2026 #CarryOnSpying Rather a good entry in the series. Babs Windsor’s first appearance and the last shot in black and white. Kenneth Williams on fine form alongside a brilliant turn by Bernard Cribbins - but Charles Hawtrey steals every scene he’s in! Wonderful stuff.

Film #1 of 2026. #TheHoldovers Hadn’t seen this before. I started out hating all the characters and worried it wouldn’t come to much, but I found it quiet, charming and beautiful.

I’m guessing the stock music selector for #TitanicSinksTonight doesn’t listen to Dear Joan and Jericha! That theme music sticks out like an hilariously inappropriate sore thumb! (Used here as ‘steerage music to dance to’)

Last few days to make use of this special discount! Still some tentacle pots and cups available www.roseschmits.com

Another dreary, dull vegan Christmas dinner… 😔 What *do* vegans eat? 😉

Merry Christmas everyone, especially my #Playschool Babies. Be kind, considerate and compassionate as the festive season continues. Spread joy everywhere you go and remember the best gift you can give is unconditional love ❤️🎄❤️

Thought I’d run out of Maldon Salt. Absolute SCENES in this kitchen. Found it. Christmas no longer cancelled.

Ok, controversial, but I’ve decided that - space-wise - I probably don’t *need* migraine relief tablets, Max flu cold and flu tablets and an empty box from a neoprene wrist support in the dry-goods food cupboard.

Well, there was custard left over from prepping the trifle. What I am I supposed to do? Waste it?!

Absolutely love this woman shopping for a Ouija board for Christmas in this 1967 BBC News item on ‘Christmas shopping in America’ #christmas #ouija #uncanny @dannyrobins.bsky.social

Kind Strangers Band Together To Help Pay For Trans People's Healthcare "The gift of gender affirming care is one that can’t be minimised. I finally feel human," said 17-year-old Sonny.

Just watched a puppet k*ll itself on the Paul Daniels Christmas Special. Yuletide Felicitations to all.

As Christmas orders are now closed, I'm going to post some pieces that I have sold in the past. Here's a little drawing of a turtle for you. My shop is still open for buyers not needing delivery before Christmas. #Turtle #Drawing #AnimalArt #art #Artwork

Can’t believe I still have two days of work left (Monday/Tuesday) and yet I’m already adjusted to the stage of “two croissants and two mince pies with a cuppa” is a perfectly acceptable brunch.

💔 829 days is far too long. MELIA is just a sweet, playful, loving dog who just needs that right person & a peaceful adult only home. No dogs. Cats are ok. Shes only 3.5 years old. 🏠Hempstead Animal Shelter ☎️(516) 785-5220 📍3320 Beltagh Avenue , Unit Wantagh, NY 11793 💻[email protected]

"This promise of an AI future, is really just a collective anxiety that wealthy people have about how well they're gonna be able to control us in the future." - @tressiemcphd.bsky.social with an absolute mic drop moment about AI bullshit. Incredible words. Listen to all of it!

I used to teach an undergrad historical methods class and their favorite day was always the one where we listen to @drmatthewsweet.bsky.social telling Naomi Wolf (live, on air on the BBC) that she misinterpreted her data and based her whole book around something that didn’t happen
