This fucking thing is next to a Substation... aberdeenshire.moderngov.co.uk/documents/s3...

Me to myself after every human interaction

I'm going to call it. On top of capturing the far side of the Moon, Earthshine on the far side, the solar corona (maybe some zodiacal light), Saturn, Mars and Mercury... this #artemis2 photo includes Neptune!! Just out of frame on the left were Venus and Earth. I mean, mind-blowing! 🧪🔭🚀🌙👩‍🚀

restaurant manager: hey so, sorry to bother you, but is that a service animal? it's just, we have a policy- jabba the hutt: je wonna wonga, bazda wahota shonga salacious b crumb: AHAHAHAHAHAHAHA restaurant manager: ah. ok. cool

cyberpunk has had its run now it's time for cyberska give me robot rudeboys and augmentations that turn your hands into trombones

"i could probably pilot a ship through the straight of hormuz" -next big thing 80% of men secretly believe about themselves

It'll be like all his isthmuses have come at once 😓

Netanyahu spending decades planning on war with Iran:

Earth Set! What a photo!!!

It's surprising to me how little discussion in the UK there is of the massive progress there has been of making the economy less natural gas dependent. Gas is just 3% of electricity generation today. Total gas use fell by 26% from 2022 to 2024, after Russia invaded Ukraine

Erm, they're called palaeontologists, actually.

extremely bad time for an astronaut to find out he's a werewolf

I love the Talmud

Absolute cinema watching that jar of Nutella escape contain behind the backs of the astronauts after packing other things away

The world building here is dark imo. In this world a cop doing that test at that moment is pretty blatant racial discrimination. So the "uh oh" isn't about the test, but about what the Knight has just learned re the dispositions of the cop who pulled him over. The body cam will be off.

Some absolute mad genius built a tiny submersible for his parrot — now the bird is “exploring” the underwater world in the Bahamas. And it’s not fake. According to the owner, the parrot named Bebe isn’t new to extreme stuff — he’s even gone skydiving in a special chest box before.

People going ‘who does this’ and I regret to inform you that apparently the government surveyed this and bsky.app/profile/iron...

“I will NOT sacrifice the Oxford comma. We've made too many compromises already; too many retreats. They assimilate the em dash and we fall back. They capture ‘not just X but y’ and we fall back. Not again. The line must be drawn here! This far, no further!”

Happy Easter

I've got the Artemis 2 live feed on and one of them is chewing gum. I can't describe the levels of meltdown you would see in me if I were trapped in a confined space with that. This is the only reason I am not an astronaut.

it’s true that overall likes are way down on bluesky over the past year. however, if you look closely at the data, that’s mostly an anomaly resulting from the fact that your posts specifically have gotten worse and are dragging the vibe down.

Yeah, this checks out.

Notes from the much larger and more significant war: in March Russia gained no net territory in Ukraine, and lost more soldiers than it was able to replace.

now with labels!

More context on this #Artemis II image: * This is the night side, lit by moonlight. You can see city lights in Spain & Portugal, & a sliver of day at lower right * The Sun is entirely behind Earth, which makes it a kind of solar eclipse, but w/ Earth doing the eclipsing instead of the Moon: ☀️🌍🚀🌕

In case Brits think it's just them, here is a Dutch populist politician (of the Farmer-Citizen Movement) in outrage mode because there is a wind farm on the pack of butter, and fewer cows.

europeans want you to believe they live virtuous lifestyles but this is their version of bed, bath & beyond

Absolute DGAF props to the Italian man opposite me - and he is definitely Italian - who in the best-cuisined part of Italy, itself the best-cuisined part of Europe, is slowly and methodically working his way through a tube of Hot n’ Spicy Pringles.

i asked a magic 8 ball if everything was going to be ok and it collapsed in on itself like a dying star is that good

Sometimes, the system works.

that’s quite a short flight, even for twenty five quid

Hollywood has gone too far this time.

“Why is bluesky so incredibly dull” because you haven’t carefully curated a feed of the most unhinged people on the internet, like i have

Watching this Korean guy try Greggs for the first time is cracking me up. Channeling all of us 🤣

They've seen the light of Yaweh and will be downing their arms to help build the Third Temple.

Reader, I googlied him

ACAB includes this fuckin’ guy

The 'is it a cake?' meme reaches its inevitable conclusion.

I think someone should do a radio clip where they explain helium supply chains after first inhaling a balloon. (I know, deeply irresponsible, don't try this at home etc.)

movie about all the world's nations working together to stave off an environmental apocalypse succeeds by completely avoiding politics
