I’m starting a business that makes slutty little backless tops for men in 2026

It's my first proper day back in work and a lot of things need fixing. Our RH has dropped, a mouse needs evicting, a funding bid is due, some project feedback is overdue, some invoices haven't been paid, our ticketing system is taking money but not sending out tickets, etc, etc. 🫠 #MuseumLife

ESSE LIVRO É MÁGICO!!!! Ganhei ele de natal (chegou esses dias kkkkkk) e eu tô apaixonado! Parece feitiçaria mas é tecnologia ☝🏼🤓

50 runaway sheep ram-paged through a German supermarket in rural Baa-varia, causing shear mania on Monday morning. After breaking away from their 500-strong herd, the brazen sheep spent 20 minutes milling around in the Penny supermarket before ewe-turning and seeing themselves out.

I assume this is where all the adult only paintings are.

The Philharmonia are currently giving away 80 free tickets per performance to first-time bookers, worth knowing if you haven't seen them before philharmonia.co.uk/series/80-fr...

it should be more acceptable to just go up to someone and say “i think we are the same kind of nerd and we should be friends”

Over at patreon.com/longdistancebitweird I got to see Project Grizzly for the first time thanks to @mbalazo.bsky.social! It's a 1996 documentary about a Canadian man who has made building a bear-proof suit his life's work. Join us in a full watch-a-long.

Heres the trailer youtu.be/vcrx14GZ_Io?...

Right. Time for some whimsy. Imagine a pig with a little bowler hat. Wouldn't that be lovely!

Best way to start the year: finding genius ways to make my living space lovely, and planning glorious adventures to fill me with joy and cake and other things. Wonky handles banished! New rug (that actually matches things) out for delivery! Big 'I ought to visit' item booked! 😍

YOUR ATTENTION PLEASE. in 45 minutes the earth hits perihelion. This is the closest point it approaches the sun. That means it will be going the fastest it goes in its orbit. In honour of this, today is designated SPEED DAY.

Saw a post about Sergey Prokudin-Gorsky, a pioneer of colour photography in the early 1900s. The photos are extraordinary - but I couldn't make sense of them through my knowledge of available techniques. The answer is simple genius. What a clever man! casualphotophile.com/2025/02/20/p...

This Tokyo subway poster warning passengers not to rush onto trains gets updated every year to match the Chinese zodiac. (This year it’s the year of the horse.)

When Whoopi Goldberg was getting into character for Sister Act she went over the top with research and went down a massive habit role.

Measuring up to 6.5 in (16.5 cm) long, the titan beetle can grow larger than a mouse and has mandibles strong enough to snap a pencil in half. This enormous insect can be found in tropical rainforests in parts of South America. Photo: andre_ambrozio, CC BY-NC 4.0, iNaturalist

Folks, she brought a whole plate of spaghetti to the broadcast center to do her headshot. She then houses that spaghetti. Mattia sips on an espresso during his. Truly the heroes we need during these times.

Would you like to ride on a heritage train filled with dinosaurs? Congratulations on your diagnosis. (A+ event planning; these folks 100% have their audience nailed.) spavalleyrailway.co.uk/events/dinos...

It's 10 years since Cat Food Letterbox Day! Oh happy day!

2026 is the year of the what? (🐎)

Not many people know that Hannah Montana has 49 other alter egos, such as Horegon Oregon, Helaware Delaware, Hexas Texas and Hawaii Hawaii.

This pattern has taken an unexpected turn. (If you're wondering whether I tried it on, hell yeah I did.)

What was your biggest impact on the internet? I can't say without doxxing myself, but I made national news by choosing to slightly improve the world and got a LOT of gammons on the bird site really really angry.

I have been trolled EXPERTLY TROLLED.

Jools’ Hootenanny or Ronan Keating & Friends?

Because I’m evilllll… Enjoy Rik Mayall out-performing a Beatle and Jools Holland at a charity gig in Nether Wallop!

Oh my god my little brother brought a pig home. What a menace! Our mom is going to kill him.

One of my Christmas presents was yarn to make a cat house and it is proving surprisingly difficult to finish.

Fallen into a rabbit hole exploring Werner's Nomenclature of Colours (1821). It describes colours and where to find them in nature. Lovely. www.c82.net/werner/#colours

Quite possibly the best thing I have seen all year.

In the 80s, my dad was on the crew of the HMS Endurance (the second one) taking the Scott Polar Research Institute staff to Antarctica. For some reason, there were also some American tourists on board. The ship was passing a huge gathering of penguins on the ice. Everyone came up on deck to look...

We talk a lot about the Horniman walrus but Charles Waterton's attempt at stuffing the head of a bottom howler monkey deserves some attention/nightmares too

Went out. Parked in a car park that has switched to ANPR since my last visit. You have to scan a QR code to pay (with no hint of the app or website address it goes to). The car park has no signal and no WiFi. Nobody answers the 'Call' button as it's Christmas. Absolutely flawless, no notes.

This house doesn’t like the other houses across the road

A lovely #Roman necklace, made of gold & small chunks of emerald - a delicate, beautiful, & timeless piece of jewellery, made more than 1800 years ago.

They never tell you the challenges of being an “industrial historian” - for example, I say something like “I love gaslighting” & everyone freaks out for some reason

Having such a relaxing Christmas that I've started a craft project that I've been ignoring for the last three years. What could go wrong? (This is my life now.)
