Classic. This Danish road safety advert is more accurate than quite a few Viking films & tv shows... and photo shoots... ;) But above all, it's very, very funny: youtu.be/pD-f45TbvEw?...

‘Terrible things are happening outside… Families are torn apart; men, women and children are separated. Children come home from school to find that their parents have disappeared. Women return… to find their families gone.’ Anne Frank, The Diary of a Young Girl. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

"And we now have María on the line who would like to swap a Nobel Peace Prize for the presidency of Venezuela..."

The amazing detail in this story is this lad's neighbour frantically whistling to try and draw the ship's attention to the dangerous local hazard known as [checks notes] Norway. If it hadn't noticed houses are generally stand on vessels a bit of whistling probably ain't going to do it, fella.

One of my favourite threads from the other place. Classic. Anyone who has owned a spaniel or variant will relate!

I have been traveling and today I present to you...the thing I saw in the Frankfurt airport. Is it efficient? Undeniably. Does it probably work better than the normal way? Oh certainly. Produce less of a mess? Probably? But the existence of Condiment Udders gives me a deep, aghast disquiet.

It's seven years since we posted on Twitter about how kids kept coming into the library asking if we had any books about FORTNITE. We didn't back then, and we'd never heard of it so we tried asking what it was.

How to dress for Blackpool.

On this day in 1945 a brave Danish Dutch diplomat drove his car into a Japanese concentration camp and saved my grandmothers and thus my life. A thread. It is August 15th 1945, my grandmother and her daughter (2 years old) are prisoners in Japanese concentration camp Lampersari.

I have been logged out of my toothbrush.

not saying anyone should, but I bet you could convince Trump to re-open Alcatraz in under 20 minutes

Biggest commitment to a 3 second joke I've ever seen

Who can forget the events of D-Day, when mad General Eisenhower ordered the massed Allied armies to shoot themselves in the foot for no reason.

"they hate our beef because our beef is beautiful and theirs is weak" our beef:

it's good people aren't in our group chat because it's literally just pictures of giant hogs

It’s not just the tariffs that are going to wreck the US economy. There will be product boycotts as well as a decline in tourism and conferences held in the US because people have other options and won’t risk this stuff. The US is internationally viewed as a dysfunctional country (as it is).

Thousands of people are ditching Tesla. Here’s one of them with a message you can see from space. Location: Black Rock Sands, Wales, UK Led By Donkeys is 100% funded by small donations.

NEW: White House says the arrest and deportation of student activist & legal US resident, Mahmoud Khalil, is a blueprint for more. The final line here is chilling. The White House specifically says Khalil was not breaking the law. No evidence, no due process, no crime. He was just disappeared.

Our school has a ‘no dressing up for world book day’ approach which I more or less approve of. But one set of parents didn’t get a memo. So at Breakfast club this morning as I dropped the kids off there was one (1) 7 year old boy there in a full banana suit. Legend.

Look at this jolly pair

This really is ageing like vinegar

Another mad element of that press conference is that Trump & Vance were ordering Zelensky to thank them personally for aid that Joe Biden had provided. All while insulting Biden & ignoring Zelensky’s frequent previous expressions of gratitude.

A key aim of Putin has to been to delegitimise the democratically elected Zelensky and the Ukrainian government. He now has the active assistance and connivance of the President of the United States in that effort.

This is fascism.

Have written about JD Vance’s Munich speech. In what may prove to be the biggest week for European security since 1991, it’s time Europe listened to what Trump and his Vice President are telling us. open.substack.com/pub/goodalla...

Brilliantly funny! Deserves to be read in full 👇

🧵"So this is how liberty dies..." Trump’s first 3 weeks have been a relentless flood of actions. It's incredibly hard to keep up. I’ve gone through 69 actions & mapped out the pattern - showing how they fall within 5 broad domains consistent with authoritarian states 1/9

Good luck or bad luck? Violet Jessop survived the RMS Olympic after it crashed in 1911; and she survived the sinking of RMS Titanic a year later. During WWI, she was a nurse on the hospital ship HMHS Britannic when it hit a naval mine. She helped patients evacuate before abandoning ship herself.
