This you @visitwakefield.bsky.social ? www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Sam Neill was a brilliant actor. Jurassic Park, obviously. Little detail I enjoyed in Event Horizon, he had the costume team update the flag on his character's space boiler suit to remove union jack and put in Australia Aboriginal flag in the Australian flag. RIP www.bbc.co.uk/news/live/cr...

Underrated tweet

If @countbinface.bsky.social is elected (and I really hope he does) to parliament. Is he allowed to sit / serve in the commons chamber in his full regalia, including the Binface? I really hope so...might even watch PMQs then.

It was Belgium that beat the US at football, not Spain

"My body is my temple"

Joking aside, a family outing to the cinema with some popcorn should not be £75!

The Tulip Mania is probably more relevant.

Brilliant thread, well worth reading.

The Labour Party is at least 3 different parties in a trenchcoat. It was the same with Tories before Reform / Restore / Tory split and electoral humiliation at the last GE.

Was it Miller?

Cue all the emergency podcasts

I guess some people who design cycleways have never ridden a bicycle or walked or wheeled or experienced any form of movement faster than 1 mph

Windows 12 should just be a clone of this minus all the electron based bloatware crap.

Bikes are so fucking awesome. This is the kind of solidarity you see when people are not trapped in their cars. Shoutout to @alexh666.bsky.social for finding this originally!

Literally and figuratively

One for @visitwakefield.bsky.social spotted in a local charity shop (nowhere near Wakefield).

FPTP is the root cause of all the volatility within the UK parliamentary system. It's simply not flexible enough to express what the country wants and wastes millions of votes. But most importantly it forces coalitions to form in secret without proper scrutiny or compromises involved.

This is one of the best threads on social media. It's delightful every time it shows up in my feed.

Bring back MiniDisc

I've just learned that the Cookie Monster has a first name...

Taking the Seinic route. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Deflate petrol by consumer prices and the real price of fuel in Britain in the three months before the war in Iran was lower than at any time since 2002

Did you hear about that time that Death had a near-Chuck Norris experience? www.bbc.co.uk/news/live/cw...

Generic

Constitutional law/amendments should be boring.

Germans buying The Telegraph...that ought to annoy a few folks. Separately, I really hope they reverse the decline of it so that it becomes worthy of the title newspaper again.

It's the product used by Andrew Formerly Known As Prince. Apparently

Boaty McBoatface should be on the new note

Anyone who has ever had an infected tooth will know how fucking agonisingly painful it is. It's constant...no reprieve. Every heartbeat is a sensation of pulsing pain. It drives people nuts and is basically torture. Draw your own conclusions.

Reminds me of the time I oiled the chain on my bike only to discover it was my knees.

That's an impediment

Best photo finish ever.

Where are the first amendment folk? Why aren't they exercising their rights under the 2nd amendment to enforce the first amendment? All being very 5th amendment, to be honest.

He already looks like he's seen things you wouldn't believe

Same...small electrical appliance ... Same

Truss is like Dolores Umbridge, only less intelligent. And I bet he has no clue who he's just met / photographed with. If he knew that she was out governed by a lettuce, he'd call her a loser.

That looks like a weird chess board

This is possibly one of the finest political cartoons of the last 15 years of his majesty's reign at 10 DS.

At the winter Olympics I'd like to see the skeleton luge. One tea tray, two people, must face away from each other.

Is her lawfully wedded partner aware?

Spotted waymo car on London roads (with human driver). Interestingly it was a left hand drive car.

Eats, Shoots & Leaves

Post a banger that isn't in English.

Just go Canadian Tuxedo

Genuinely surprised that he resigned ... And not tried to get the standards lowered to his property level .

Don't know who needs to hear this, but remember to file your UK tax return...deadline is on 31 Jan.
