Football breakfast (🎶 cholesterol's coming home 🎶)

Be still, my beating heart! “The first order of business for the reformed Vengeance Records is to release a 1977 album that had, until earlier this year, been sitting unheard on tapes in Ivy’s Los Angeles garage. Titled Gravest Gravy, it was produced by Alex Chilton….”

For anyone watching the intro to ENG v NOR and heard the commentator say the Miami Marlins are "in-form" what he meant was "well, they aren't last"

Video Store Weirdo was like a film somelier who would give you "a look" if you said something like "I didn't really like the director's cut"

Saw a meme of GenZ baffled by how pre-internet travel worked, and realized we’ve crossed an enshittification threshold where IRL services that once seemed outdated, like travel agents, now seem luxurious: “You meet with a human expert who plans out your whole trip with you” sounds incredible now tbh

Here’s a closer screen shot 🤭😆 #nzpol

I keep thinking about this Alex Ross painting of The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen that is, for some reason, also the cast of 30 Rock

Whoa! The Swiss manager is fucking hot!

lost among the actual news (and the fact they were wearing their home kit), but we also bid farewell tonight to maybe the best shirt at the world cup, mexico's long sleeve away

Björk released her international debut album ‘Debut’ 33 years ago on July 5, 1993 album.ink/bjorkdebut

This became a thread 🧵 😅

The perfect sports commentary team for any sport: Play by Play with an excellent grasp of language and able to describe the play as though the viewers were blind. Colour commentary from a former coach or manager with deep understanding of tactics and rules who also has a wealth of stories. AND...

This is a very fun fact

Oooooph right in the dick! A legit football injury

People don’t remember how dirty swans were getting in 1995. <pictured: man looking for swans that may be hiding>

saw the worst thing in the world today

@audioculturenz.bsky.social this ones probably too easy for your quiz 😄

Did they just call football a contact sport?!

The three genders

Can’t help thinking this one has bindun

Given how small Aotearoa is, everyone knows someone who's 'gone down the rabbithole' in recent years. At safetytoolkit.nz, we’ve done our best to summarise the issue as sensitively as possible, while keeping things within scope for what organisations need to know when they’re being targeted.

Come with me and you'll be / in a world of abject exploitation

Use eminent domain to capture all the Boring company tunnels in Las Vegas. Turn it into a bicycle/e-scooter track. There isnt' the ventilation/room for a train in it, but you could do some serious commuting/traveling on bikes and scooters protected from the sun. I think it'd be fun.
