unconfirmed reports that I ended up in tears (ironically?) on the tube while reading this piece on the bus drivers of 7/7: www.londoncentric.media/p/july-7-ter...

you guys are being very cynical about this but the real explanation is that bears and Bigfoot are buddies. They like to hang out and do stuff together

Hello chaps. Today we've launched the #TakingthePIP campaign to push back against the government's proposed reforms to Personal Independence Payment, a benefit for disabled people. Here's a great write up about the campaign. www.theguardian.com/society/2025...

This video made me realise we have a whole new generation about who have no memory of the late 2000s atheist movement. Well,

people talking about the number of followers they had on Twitter vs here and about the sort of posting they did over there that worked vs on Bluesky and from the bottom of my heart:

Women don't want flowers, but according to one of my GCs, women want all those tiny Lego f1 cars from wh smith.

Behold! A Puffin is sat in your feed. Adorable.

Please don't put in the newspaper that 28 children laughed at me

When he should be getting in that dim sum to appeal to the east asian vote.

Every time you watch Conclave or Two Popes you have to follow it with Spotlight. That's how Catholic guilt works.

I've seen a lot of people compare AI products to the rise of the internet and warn that if we don't start using them we'll get left behind. But I don't think that's what happening. I think AI is "pivot to video" 2.0. My latest for @spitfirenews.com spitfirenews.com/p/ai-is-pivo...

Much discussion exists about grief following adult neurodiversity diagnosis, very little exists about the majorly bummed out feeling of realising you're a savant in a really lame area.

everything I hear about the way new mothers are treated makes me think that if I ever have a kid, with my temperament, running on no sleep, I'll probably end up punching someone in the mouth

Sinners (2025)

Performative bullying of “soft” jobs and performative celebration of “hard” jobs is one of the most boring things in the world. And… god, it’s just miserable isn’t it? A thuggish fuck-you to loads of hard workers, and a denial of potential of the next generation. Know your place, kids.

No no, its fine, I don't need *all my work notes and the one of two hands I use to type* you can sleep on and hold *all my work notes and the one of two hands I use to type*

@youngvulgarian.marieleconte.com new reaction meme/terrifying reminder of a game that ruined your life for you.

based on how often the naughty teens of major cities throw the rentable scooters directly into the river i've formed a theory that the many iron age swords and cauldrons found in lakes around europe that we've previously assumed were ceremonial and sacrificial in nature were in fact thrown by teens

been on the telly talking about the welfare changes www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/epis...

one of my favorite things in the world is when someone gets a medium amount of followers for some silly thing and it totally destroys their life and they start posting like sephiroth

Taking your partner for a trip to the big supermarket so they can check on olive oil prices.

Btw: if any radio/broadcast producers are looking for someone on Universal Credit who knows the system to talk about the welfare reforms today/tomorrow - or next week about any changes to benefits in the Spring Statement - drop me a line! (and please RT/QT to amplify!)

Has anyone done the leg work for me and investigated the best weekend newspaper for the balance of good puzzles and good articles? I feel the two are always off balance and no I wont just use a games app I am trying to break loose of this hell.

beaver's return

I've helped literally hundreds of people get an ADHD diagnosis purely because I publicly talk about the symptoms and how they affect me. The stereotype is so pervasive and so different to the reality that a lot of undiagnosed people don't realise that their struggles are caused by it.

the most important thing about the new season of the white lotus is aimee lou wood’s teeth. this is the representation us gals with Teeth need in the world

Some thoughts from your girl in the latest NYMag Critics Newsletter, in which several critics on staff were asked about the worth of negative reviews. “I’m a born lover. The best haters are lovers at heart who are just disappointed in the world.” ♥️

“Repair vouchers, which give people 50% off the cost of repairing broken electrical items, will be available in a trial across north London. A similar scheme in Austria has had a huge impact. Experts estimate it has saved about 4,000 tonnes of e-waste.” www.theguardian.com/environment/...

incredibly depressing to think we could have had a neon release for hit man or may december. they could have gone all the way with a good distributor

Went to a cinema with 5 pound tickets and 1 pound drinks. Change is possible, rise up and physically fight the Odeon big O, only a few thousand of us will disappear into its mysterious middle.

When the Oscars are a even teeny toe close to being done well (great host, mix of films win, fab speeches and dresses) it really butters my bread.

Isabella Rosselini - wearing her softly crushed blue velvet, at the Oscars 38 years later. An elegant & timeless tribute to longtime friend, David Lynch.

This Is Just To Say I have eaten the sausage that was in the tupperware and which you were probably saving for the photoshoot

I know a lot is said about how appliances dont last anymore and we are being driven to buy new things, but its really been hammered home by trying find fridge repair people; the big box in your house thats expensive and vital to food preservation? Experts; thin on the ground.

No one had died of measles in America for ten years, until yesterday. That 2015 death in WA was preceded by a 12y period of no US deaths. www.nbcnews.com/health/healt... HHS Secretary RFK Jr. says it’s “not unusual.” apnews.com/article/meas... It is unusual. www.cdc.gov/measles/data...

Every post and video about girl dinner, picky bits, or adult lunchables confirms my strong belief that Ploughman's lunch fulfils all basic needs.

Really good to see an MP raising the issue of postpartum depression, which still feels like something of a taboo subject, despite how common it can be

As ever with these bits of research I’m reminded of the 1933 Oxford Union debate in which 275 to 153 voted for the motion "That this House will under no circumstances fight for its King and country", and six years later that wasn’t the case at all

This one, three-legged coyote, is helping researchers understand how landscapes form connectovity. Camera footage provides data that traces where roads pose barriers and divide habitat. This helps find solutions that make roadways safer. www.tahoedailytribune.com/news/how-a-3...

Hahahahahahahahhaha www.telegraph.co.uk/business/202...

Just out: my new Cato piece on why public officials, unlike some startup founders, cannot simply "move fast and break things," at least not if what they are breaking are things like the law and their oath to the Constitution. /1

Signed up to my local toad count. Was turned away from another local toad count as I was told there is "a lot of interest in toads from pictures online". You freaks.

I have so little skin in the journalism game anymore that I can really take or leave credit, but I do find it a little funny that while content in this is credited, there's no mention of the host's knowledge stemming from his former team - including international reporters - digging into the panics.

"Some species are now functionally extinct in the wild." "Indigenous knowledge that has long supported biodiversity and livelihoods must be brought into conservation strategies." www.dfa.co.za/news/from-na...

Extremely hot thing to do

What is going on with the British museum's hiring process?

Have I seen the Robbie Williams monkey film? No. Have I watched hours of making of footage as Im fascinated by the concept far more than I could ever be about the finished product? Yes yes yes.

Please take this reminder and make better choices than I did today; luna new year is earlier than you think this year so your local asian store is going to be busy with people who aren't usually there when you go to get kimchi ingredients you dumb bitch.

i love that quote from the lady who played the behind-the-dumpster-being in mulholland drive where she was like "so we all know how david lynch is really hot right" because we DID all know but only she was brave enough to say it
