Tag yourself - personally i'm finding it hard to choose between kangaroo and duck. Also fuck AI.

Please be Dignitas, please be Dignitas…

So Disney deleted their post on Threads asking users to post Disney quotes that show how their feeling - I suspect this is because it didn't quite go as they expected but the internet is forever so, for your delectation and delight...

That utter fuckwit's just said: “If we don’t do it, Russia or China will take over Greenland. And we’re not going to have Russia or China as a neighbor.” Does he not know about Alaska?

He didn't shoot her in the head at point blank range because he felt like he was in danger. He shot her in the head at point blank range because he was furious that she wasn't afraid of him. He shot her in the head at point blank range because he felt emasculated.

Sir Terry Pratchett is best understood as one of the most interesting, deeply ethical practical (I would say Pragmatist but I cede to actual experts) philosophers of the late 20th Century who just happened to work in deconstructed fantasy literature as his medium.

I love the phone in my hotel room...

I think I've found my place for breakfast tomorrow...

Mildly infuriating? Although, tbh, the more I look at this, the more I enjoy it. Anyway tag yourselves. I'm O is penguin.

Had to spend an hour sitting next to a retired Aus cattle farmer who thought the British Empire had been great and all the countries controlled by GB were developed and happy (but those colonised by the Spanish on the other hand were all shit holes). Big fan of Nig and Donnie as well obvs.

Honestly? This week on the beach has been lovely but I'm now in urgent need of something to do other than read, nap on the beach and swim in the sea. Thank gawd I'm going back to Bangkok on Sunday then on to Sukhothai. In the meantime, have a sunset... PS my apologies to everyone I know at home.

A heart-warming, feel-good Christmas story.

Honestly?

Oooh hello fleece-lined trousers my old friends...

Heads up 😅 Sex Matters have launched their own MP letter-writing campaign insisting on trans segregation, an exclusionary Code etc etc 📝Let’s make sure our letters outnumber theirs+++ Template here! If you’ve already written, grab a mate & get them to write too 🤗 actionnetwork.org/letters/scra...

My pension pot has ALMOST reached where it was before Liz Truss fucked it.

I have TWO doorbells - one an old wind up one on the door and one Ring wotsit with a camera next to it - plus a cast iron knocker and have been in all day. Yet, somehow, Royal Mail still managed to leave a 'you weren't in' card on my doormat. FFS

I can't believe I'm saying this: Alan Carr is the best traitor of all time. #CelebrityTraitors

Absolutely nailed it.

this one's for @jimspim.bsky.social

Am I rewatching Goblin because I've had a terrible week and only Gong Yoo can heal me? Why yes, yes I am. *especially Gong Yoo with long hair.

I just heard a version of The Special's Ghost Town that's been 'tweaked' to make it more Halloweeny and

I don't think 7pm is too early to be going to bed. Especially when the clocks went back so it's really 8pm...

Adverts should be representative of traditional British families.

Last night I dreamed that I had to play the drums for a concert (I cannot play the drums) and i didn't know any of the songs (and I cannot play the drums). Also I couldn't find my drumsticks (which I possessed even though I cannot play the drums) Quite nervous about going to sleep tonight tbh.

I've just seen someone on Reddit call Trump Tangerine Palpatine and it made me snort tea out of my nose.

Oh dear

How is this repeatedly made into a policy issue - by *all* parties - when the blunt fact of the matter is that grown adults who are obliged to pay for their own education, and relentlessly pursued to repay their loans, should be able to study whatever the fuck they want.

Ooh I went to the recording of this Taskmaster ep.

I'm not sure if I should be flattered or appalled by the fact that a workman who came round to quote on replacing some blown brickwork had me saved in his phone as Hot Brick because he'd forgotten my name.

One of these rich dudes invested in a food company with all proceeds going to kids in need. The other started Sundance Institute, boosting the lives of countless artists. Hey modern rich dudes, don't be a typical greedy AI crypto-prick, be like these two.

What utter dickheads we are… Rayner fought for workers: sick pay, maternity rights, protection from unfair dismissal Farage and his MPs voted it down Rayner gets binned over £40k in stamp duty Farage dodges £44k, shrugs & strolls on The mega wealthy win again.

The president of the United States just declared war, actual military war, not a metaphorical one, on a major American city, and one governed by his political opponents. In any other period, this would be impeachment-worthy.

If you really REALLY want the Nobel Peace Prize then renaming the Department of Defence as The Department of War is absolutely something you need to do.

Please, my cat, he very sick.

And whose fault is that eh Mitch??

Happy 'greatest correction ever' day to all who celebrate

Well damn

I'm feeling quite night before Christmasish. Of course if it hasn't happened then it'll be worse than getting a load of dud presents...

Please please please please (with extra thoughts and prayers).

I'm all for saving the planet, reducing litter etc OBVS but I've I've flooded so many bags because the bottle caps with a little tether are really tricky to get back on properly. Thankfully I refuse to wear anything without a pocket big enough for my phone otherwise I'd be completely buggered.
