I saw this referred to as the Strait of Warm Ooze. Very good.

This made me laugh to the point of crying. I know it’s stupid but I don’t care.

They’re calling it the quote on British politics that ended the need for all other quotes

Applied for a part time job on Tuesday. Decided to try Chat GPT for the personal statement. Hated what it wrote so ditched it altogether & wrote my own. Got knock back for the job today. Maybe should have stuck with Chat GPT since that was also, presumably, who assessed my application. Sigh.

"You fool! You fell victim to one of the classic blunders! The most famous of which is, 'never get involved in a land war in Asia,' but only slightly less well-known is 'never let a man only known for bankruptcy and pedophilia negotiate terms'!"

RIP Mark Rothko. You would have loved how the hydrogen peroxide bleach is only turning the Reflecting Pool blue around the perimeter

For the Glory of the Sontaran Empire!

It’s both sobering and oddly hopeful to think back to how much safer, calmer and more optimistic the world felt when Barack Obama was the President. A leader with dignity, compassion, charisma, intelligence - whip smart, generous and visibly a healthy man in his prime. #ObamaAppreciationDay

Here’s the thing about Tony. He turned up in the NEVERWHERE studio the day before he was booked to be in. He didn’t have to do that but he wanted to get an idea of how the production sounded in studio and how the team worked. A total pro and a lovely human being.

In case nobody has posted this btw. Jpg is cruddy but alt text has the text

GNU Anthony Head. And a wail to the heavens. 💔

My instinctive response to the Kennedy Centre thing is to hope that, the moment it’s out of his hands and back in the control of sane people, there is a huge influx of top flight performers and events there, just to make it crystal clear that the only problem there ever was, was him.

Felony President Donald Trump Has wrecked the White House on purpose Off he went singing 'Trumpetty-Trump 'Trump Trump Trump!' Felony President Donald Trump Should bugger off to his bunker Lock him in with his horrible chums Chums chums chums...

Read this with a comma in the middle and thought it was some kind of Tory Ambrosia.

I’ve got this brilliant political tactic for Labour called ‘have some principles and stick to them rather than trying to work out how to court as many focus groups as you can at the same time’ but I’ve a sneaking suspicion they may not take me up on it.

Basically the conversation I’ve just had with my Mum. I can only desperately hope that maybe, just maybe, Labour might look at the USA and realise that lurching further to the right to try to compete with the hard right just makes the whole country fall apart.

Please remember to vote tomorrow. Voter apathy and low turnout is the most dangerous thing in the era we’re slogging our way through. We are so lucky to have the right to vote without the danger people in other countries face. Don’t take it for granted. Vote.

Don't fall for fascism. Not only is Reform's plan inhuman and a not-even-thinly veiled attempt at voter blackmail, it quite simply cannot happen #Farage #ConTheNationCamps

Love this. God, I wish we were in a world and a time where someone grown up and classy was in charge again.

Thinking of my Jewish friends who must be feeling such fear after the latest anti-Semitic attacks in London. Nothing justifies it and it is horrific that people are facing violence just for existing while part of a particular racial, ethnic or religious group.

@bsky.app Hi - the discover feed is reporting an upstream error 503 and it suggests I contact you to let you know.

I can't believe they got this interview with the walrus

Living in a timeline where the most PLAUSIBLE explanation is that the US President faked an assassination attempt in order to shore up his own failing regime while at the same time avoid having a few jokes made at his expense is really bloody tiring.

Farage has now declared 'war' on benefits scroungers. Well I know of one guy who pockets six figures from the taxpayer in handouts and expenses but never shows up to work, either in the Commons or Clacton.

At the start of April, we announced new Standard Play Contract Rates for playwrights in Scotland, negotiated with our friends at the Federation of Scottish Theatre. These went into effect immediately, and more info can be found through the link in our bio. #playwright #scottishplaywrights #fst #ssp

Outstanding work.

With the help of the Sandy Hook families, The Onion has reached a long-awaited deal to take over InfoWars. We've enlisted the help of @timheidecker.bsky.social, who will be InfoWars' Creative Director. Please stand by for more.

It’s finally happened. After 18 months. Finally, a media merger you can root for.

The myth of selling your soul for power and wealth is probably based on the fact that so many wealthy, powerful individuals are so devoid of compassion, imagination or appreciation of art as anything other than an investment that they genuinely seem to have no soul.

If you need a healthy dose of sanity in these insane times, BBC Radio 4 Extra are repeating our Marx Brothers re-creations “Flywheel, Shyster & Flywheel”. I believe you can listen live from anywhere on the planet but can only stream them on catch up in the UK. www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b...

Just back from Legoland and it seems they heard all about Trump's U-turns

What the actual fuck. Seriously, America, you NEED to can his pathetic, demented, malignant narcissistic arse.

"The image clearly depicts me as a simple vendor of seafood sandwiches"

Watched the last two episodes of The Other Bennet Sister and it was bloody lovely. Then read that Hungary has voted out Orban. Pretty bloody good day so far. Also - nice to see the tradition of Trump/Vance endorsements leading to mega losses continues unabated. Long may that continue.

Right?

After 7 years of writing for Breaking the News, I reached the stage where the words ‘CalMac Ferries’ were enough to give me a migraine. I did write some stuff for it this week though; it’s very funny if Scottish news doesn’t make you physically ill: www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/...

This is so well done. 👌

Greedy rich folk: AI might do all the work for zero pay, but since it's not earning it's also not buying whatever you're selling. So your quest for short-term savings now will ultimately be the death of your - and every other - company. Oh yeah, and the species.

This struck so hard when I read it just now.

Orange cats are a whole vibe. 🥰😂🤣

We've basically reached the Jonestown Massacre point in the Donald Trump Cult thing, haven't we? How can he back down now? He's basically saying he's orchestrated a revolution and when it doesn't happen by his deadline the only option left to save his ego is to die and take everyone with him.

Love that Corgi 🤣🐶

This remake of Donnie Darko sucks.

Feels like this would be more accurate if they just removed the colon.
