To ‘ultra-crepidate’ (19th century) is to lecture others on subjects you know very little about.

I wonder if a certain VP gives a shit about this.

Hey, does anybody know if we need to be outdoors for this rapture thing? I'm guessing if we're indoors we'll be doomed to forever float in the corner of the ceiling like a sad party balloon? On a positive note, makes it easier to paint some frescos... #rapture2025

Maybe Brain Worms McRoadkill shouldn't be allowed to dictate health policy? Dunno, it's just a thought.

Happy Caturday 😽

I hate unboxing videos. HOWEVER, I am a CARTOONIST. So.

Where's Krashi Antonelli when we need him?... #F1

Can't wait to hear how this was the car's fault, not the driver. #F1

Gaaaaaaah. That is all, carry on. #F1

Joker lap for Mr. Leclerc. #F1

Well now we know why Baku was renewed until 2030 it's so we'll have time to finish qualifying.

Hulk smash! #F1

I just want to clarify that the CDC is still recommending that kids get those vaccines! They're now recommending it in two shots vs the combined shot. Everyone is panicking in the replies and quotes here that no kids are going to get vaccinated for those diseases and that's not what's happening.

don't really know what all this synthetic fuel stuff is? got 10 minutes where if you move your mouse around on Slack no one'll realise you're not doing anything? why not read a newsletter about What's Going On With All That

good god I've written a new edition of Car Science, only about 18 months after the last one. this is basically just a bunch of interesting things that've happened with synthetic fuel (the stocks are down ...and also up?) and I figured I might as well write about buttondown.com/HSouthwellFE...

@guitarmoog.bsky.social Trying to shift the mood a bit here... I've been a bit sidetracked by <gestures widely> so haven't really checked lately, but any delay / reverb pedals tickled your fancy lately? It's not that I *need* more, but when has that ever stopped us...

Criticise the person where appropriate, but also give credit when deserved, and this is fully deserved.

I thought old-school republicans were against participation trophies?

🤔So... If MAGA declared war on Charlie Kirk's shooter... and the shooter turned out to be your basic North American Groyper... Does that mean MAGA is at war with the Groypers now? Or was that all just a lie by people who were excited about the opportunity to be violent towards trans people?

A propos of nothing whatsoever, I'm old enough to remember some VP complaining about the lack of freedom of speech in Europe.

Expert Explains Why, Essentially, You’re Fucked

Two things: 1) Black Lives Matter is not *done*. It's never done. Me Too, also not done. Y'all really underestimate our endurance.🤷🏿‍♂️ 2) It's not difficult to be an ally. Andrew Garfield and Julia Roberts made space, Ayo Edebiri took her space, and the nonsense question was exposed for what it is.

Am I just getting old and grumpy(-ier), or are all F1 pundits trying to increasingly out-drama each other? #F1

Well, he did say he didn't want to do the 2 flying laps. #F2

Spinning on what seemed to be a constant speed run? That's... a strategy. #F1

As a survivor, I can't think of a more fitting metaphor than a rapist creating loud noises with planes as a survivor tries to tell her story. I mean... just wow. Nevertheless, she persisted.

Discworld QOTD, from Small Gods “Vorbis liked to see properly guilty consciences. That was what consciences were for. Guilt was the grease in which the wheels of the authority turned.”

@jontyscorner.bsky.social Jontystradamus strikes again?

Can someone explain to them that there's still 200+ laps to go? #IndyCar

PSA re F1 fans: the rules, as stupid as they might be, should apply to all drivers on track, independently from your profile picture / banner / profile blurb. It sucks, but that's the principle: sometimes you're the windshield, sometimes you're the bug.

Ruth Buscombe-Divey just gave Jolyon Palmer a strategy lesson live on F1TV and I'm here for it. 🤣 #F1

<honse.jpg> #F1

you're the main reason to keep on going

Why the Trump/MAGA/GOP assault on facts? Because facts contradict every ideological policy they're trying to impose. Yes, #climate change is real. #Vaccines are effective and safe. It's the #guns. Trump economics is destroying jobs and the economy. Facts are powerful weapons against fascism.

When a black man gets shot by a police officer in any circumstance, "he didn't comply". When a white woman doesn't comply to repeated requests to stand down *and then* gets shot by a police officer (we all saw it, no argument there), she gets the hero treatment. Sounds about white.

this is an important message for the current situation

ffs if you're going to go full ignorant, at least get the correct keyboard

How I love clogged 3D printer nozzles... not.

also I need a job. if anyone has any uhhhhhh pub manager or bar jobs or whatever the fuck going aaaaaaargh this is my actual literal worst nightmare

Urgent: me and him and the cats need somewhere to live within the next two weeks, I've just been (I think very unfairly) fired and need to move somewhere ASAP

realistic Star Trek

Just like the "leader of the free world" thing, I don't remember voting for this, so... no. Fuck no.

We acknowledge that no one has the bandwidth for this, but if it helps: - It’s ‘voilà,’ not ‘wallah!’ - It’s ‘a lot,’ not ‘alot.’ - It’s ‘further ado,’ not ‘farther adieu.’ - It’s ‘flesh out,’ not ‘flush out.’ - It’s ‘sneak peek,’ not ‘sneak peak.’ No worries if not!!!

Welp, I guess I'm back on my tool time rants. So let me tell you about probably the most consequential tool maker of the last two centuries. A person who completely changed how we cut and process lumber. A Shaker woman named Tabitha Babbitt.

Paging @putdorianedown.bsky.social

So when is this administration resigning en masse?

Can't wait for the USA to raise tariffs on every country on this list in retaliation. Oh, Portugal has also joined, btw.

Just leave him the f*ck alone, will you? Not that he isn't a great driver, but RB? ffs.
