YOU’RE LISTENING TO SISYPHUS FM, THE HOME OF NON-STOP ROCK

This dog must have an amazing sense of humor. Original post

This is weird - not least because it's only 23 hours since his forced retirement. Shots, and then the most hysterical healthcare discussion I have every seen and heard (helium is involved).

What a delightful article -- and couple. I, Cladius, was my first exposure to Derek Jacobi. I'd seen him again on television and in films. Never saw him in live theatre, unfortunately. This article is a good look at him and his partner, Richard Clifford. www.theguardian.com/film/2026/ma...

We met in some Invisible City, both staying at a place with a fancy name like the Castle of Crossed Destinies. I told her my name was Mr Palomar.

I bet they’re tired of being political footballs.

Nothing makes you look guiltier than forcing the Justice Department to promise never to investigate your taxes or prosecute you for anything they might find.

Very strange new trend is happening at my office. People putting names on food in the company fridge. Today, I had a tuna sandwich called Steve.

“what do you call a sleep-walking nun? a roaming catholic. I’m here all week, try the lobster“

Morning. ☕️

A wonderful, sad, and heartwarming story. Enjoy

Sneaking a giant screen into the flagshagger march is one of the funniest things @ledbydonkeys.org have ever done. "STAY HYDRATED" 😂🤣😂

We’ve been through this, Wallace. It’s a penguin with a rubber glove on his head.

All day long and twice on Sunday.

“It’s when they started singing ‘Wind of Change’ for the sixth time in a row that we knew the jig was up”

Bezos letter to shareholders 2012: "Our business approach is to sell premium hardware at roughly breakeven prices. We want to make money when people use our devices – not when people buy our devices... For example, we don’t need our customers to be on the upgrade treadmill." Not any more, it seems.

This is Jam. He said he was the highest jumping golden retriever in Ontario. May or may not have lied on his resume. Still 13/10 (IG: skythepupvlogger)

Starmer won because he was seen as (comparatively) decent and competent compared to the Tories. But, dear Lord, he's so bad at politics. How can someone with such a majority not be bold, driving change and transforming the country? Instead, he struggles to lead while cowed by polls and headlines.

Wasn't Sledge Hammer a famously incompetent, dumb, violent, laughable character with bouffant eighties hair from a tv series....oh.

Want.

1/2 Innovating tech is relatively easier than innovating the business model. Hence rarer. Yet, it's where unicorns are found. Google search. Amazon. Facebook. Spotify. Uber. So it's always interesting to find a company innovating on the business model in the wild. Like TRMNL: shop.trmnl.com

We've finally won the war against woke

Well played, @dvbishop.com, well played.

I've just been stopped by a copper. He gave me the verdigris.

You know how they throw the ball into the crowd after they win a game? That's not allowed in bowling. I know this now.

Think a 'David' is at risk of becoming the collective noun for sad poems. After yesterday's poem I promised to post a funny poem today This one by Brian Bilston shows the importance of traditional punctuation conventions The audacity of the final stanza 😁 #poetry #poemoftheday

So many questions...what criteria did they use? How do they assess this? And, most pertinently, why?

Britain's broadcast media boasts of its strict adherence to impartiality rules. Mentions per MP. LibDems: 645 Tories: 5,116 Greens: 7,763 Labour (the actual govt): 27,438 Reform: 70,732 Anyone surprised they're ahead? bebroadcast.co.uk/politics-who...

If you're in a public forum celebrating a great piece of art and storytelling, you don't have to speak out about anything. Celebrating art is a good thing. If you want to interpret it, analyse it or discuss the ideas it sparks in you, go ahead. But no-one can - or should - oblige you to do so.

And yet the voters continue to reject commonsense solutions! Smdh.

I think about this comic all the time.

My father always used to say "the first rule of theatre is to leave them wanting more." Fantastic guy, terrible anaesthetist.😂

Jaws is a good movie but Spielberg blew it by not ending it with Fin

Q. Is this legal in UK?. Spam from Interflora UK. Look for 'unsubscribe' button in email. Not there. Click to 'update preferences' - no 'unsubscribe'. Only 'pause' or cancel certain event emails. I checked to get no 'event' emails. Have I unsubscribed? Don't know. VERY VERY POOR, INTERFLORA!

Well played, @rufustsuperfly.bsky.social, well played.

Happy birthday, Dad. Wish you were here. You’d know what to do. Or at least you’d know what to write. ❤️

Ian Dury & The Blockheads 'There Ain't Half Been some Clever Bastards' did it best... 'Van Gogh did some eyeball pleasers He must have been a pencil squeezer He didn't do the Mona Lisa That was an Italian geezer' ..also features Einstein and Noel Coward youtu.be/cY2GmYE_piE?...

I don't understand why the administration is so anti-science. Filling the roles with lackeys to pursue an agenda, that's one thing but why are they eviscerating US-based scientific research? From a true America first position to America last. Were I China, I'd be laughing all the way to the bank.

"Artistically necessary" scenes sometimes genuinely are. Reminds me of my favourite artistically necessary, narratively irrelevant moment on TV. It's from Joe Barton's wonderful Uk / Japan gangster thriller series, Giri/Haji youtu.be/0cCxVR4q5V8?...

There's a lot that's wonderful in this piece but this was my favourite part open.substack.com/pub/naomiald...

If you cross Peter Cook and Ivor Cutler with Chris Morris, intense, unhinged Alexei Sayle and a dash of Vic and Bob, do you get the brilliantly unhinged George Fouracres, as here? youtu.be/6xNr97mx240?... Or here? youtu.be/-fkt15VUGgE?.... I take it back. You've seen nothing like this. Enjoy.

Well played, @robpalk.bsky.social, well played.

Whoever called the faction of the press who still want to attend the White House Correspondents Dinner the ‘Access of Evil’ I salute you
