"Are you taking the piss?" - Bear Grylls, to his wife as she's preparing a picnic.

Realizing how much Worf and Hank Hill are the same guy gave me a better appreciation for both characters.

I for one did not see this coming

Everybody knows about William Hurt and John Hurt, but I only just learned there's a third Hurt brother they never talk about, named Butt.

Cnut. He's forgotten about Cnut, who went on pilgrimage to Rome in 1027. Oh, and Edward I, who spent 2 months at the court of Gregory X in 1273. Otherwise, all over the detail, as per.

I know people who still convince themselves that they have to be there and it boggles my mind. It’s not a website with Nazis on it - it’s not even a website that tolerated Nazis - it is an actively *nazi website*. If you wouldn’t be on gab or stormfront, don’t be on twitter.

Tory policy is to revoke permanent residence (ILR) for everybody who does not earn £38k - deporting most nurses who have ILR This is put in the video as "who is unlikely to contribute more than they cost" NB: video does not say EU settled status is exempt No govt since Idi Amin has done this

Idi Amin deported 80,000 Asians from Uganda in 1972. So although the Conservatives want to propose the first mass deportation of legal migrants since Idi Amin - especially with the retrospective changes in ILR - Lam is proposing to deport 20 times as many people as Idi Amin.

virgin media ron, oil on board

All these years of complex heist movies about the impossibility of stealing jewels without using special equipment and genius level cunning, and we never thought even considered....what if the museum just had terrible security?

I'm rubbish at self-promotion, so I'll just say that I've made a 2026 calendar with penguins and hope for the best. captain-howdy-shop.fourthwall.com/en-gbp/produ...

I've had a few days off and the time I've spent on the internet suggests to me that I don't actually like the internet very much.

New ham-fisted political metaphor just dropped.

Hello Dressing Tables.

Today's Hallowmeme.

Did a new one

Jeremy Clarkson, who takes a picture of a Viennetta to the hairdressers

After talking about it the other day so was able to find the Chief Supt Brownlow / American Werewolf in London meme!

I’m no Trump fan but it’s not fair/necessary for his physician to reveal that the President has what most closely resembles a custom-built mobile bathtub that’s “just for diarrhea” and that the secret service are responsible for making sure he’s “never more than 30 feet from it.”

Today marks the two-year anniversary of a great modern sci-fi show: Scavengers Reign. 🥰 A new classic that is only officially available in a few countries.

Inside number 9 stage show was incredible, lots of twists and makes great use of the fact it's in a theatre.

The nice thing about being a gay, problem drinker with Parkinson's is that on any given evening out nobody knows why I cant walk.

My brother spotted this today.

I wrote a lovely poem about the good old days, to go with the nice pink one off Facebook that's quoted below.

The BBC are accidentally running the subtitles to Mrs Marple over the Mercury Prize, and it’s rather wonderful. A few of lines could plausibly have been written by Jarvis.

Today I learned that Neil Diamond originally tried to make it big under his real name of Neil Coal, but in the end had to change it due to immense pressure.

I was not expecting to love Cyberpunk 2077, but it's blown me away. Looks and sounds incredible, actual sensory overload of a game.

The one good thing about them taking the horny restraints off ChatGPT is that we will never hear from some people again

Carol malone. “Migrants should speak english”. Zack Polanski. “ I agree, we should give them some help to learn the language and help them integrate”. Malone. “ NO. NO. NO. WHY SHOULD WE HELP THEM LEARN ENGLISH AND INTEGRATE!!!!!!!!”

Tag yourself, I'm RAIN RAIN BARKELS

I wonder if anybody has thought to design a formal waistcoat with a phone pocket? I looked it up but all the results are for high vis tabards. You could fit a pocketwatch chain to your phone, but then if you look that up you get lot of pictures of Peaky Blinders so probably for the best we don't.

Have just become aware there's a horrible number* of ai generated Ulysses 31 remakes out there and feel it's important to point out that THIS is the only remake of #Ulysses31 that you will ever need: youtu.be/QMpf1D3YohU *I didn't count, literally ANY is a horrible number in this case.

Misheard lyrics (true story)

Every time something pops up about Bari Weiss, which is far too often, I wish people were talking about Barry White instead. I'm betting Barry was a far better singer than Bari is and he made music that people actually liked rather than whatever it is Bari Weiss keeps pissing people off about.

Perfect posting from Tim Heidecker, 24 hours apart.

If eating scotch eggs in an Austin Allegro had a face.
