The failure of Cloudflare took down X and ChatGPT. “Do it again, daddy! Do it again!”

So, Shana Tova and, to all those evangelicals, “Bye! Have a nice time! Don’t miss your train!”

All right, I’ve had enough. It’s “cannon” to shoot bullets the size of your head. It’s “canon” for adhering to a story or myth, or for a clergyman, or a camera and electronics company.

truly one of the most unintentionally funny things i've ever seen someone post online about themself

Seen on Quora: I just heard someone at the farmers market say "The only thing Kirk has in common with Jesus is that Christians get mad when you quote him to them."

There are so many sets of speculation and misinformation swirling around right now, that I will not add to them. Only that killing is the wrong thing to do.

Was Mandelson a good ambassador because he and Trump had a mutual friend?

what a humiliating way for don jr. to find out his dad sends birthday cards.

Norfolkians, a question: why is Little Snoring bigger than Great Snoring?

We bought a new vacuum cleaner. It’s currently gathering dust.

Today’s earworm: “Doing the French Mistake”, from Blazing Saddles. Why, brain, why?

Maxwell’s statements: who to believe? The convicted felon, or the convicted felon? Gee, what a decision.

Russia bombs US factory in Ukraine. They manufacture coffe makers. Trouble is brewing. apple.news/Apmg4QAevT0K...

So, Putin charmed Trump again. Golly, who could have predicted that?

So, if the USA is the “best country in the world”, why does it have far and away the most drug users per capita in the world? worldpopulationreview.com/country-rank...

The maths of the old Tory Rwanda plan: Last year, there were 37000 illegal migrants. The max capacity of an average passenger plane is 480. That works out to over 77 flights per year, or 1.5 a week. A smallish commercial airline. Pretty costly.

I predict: Ghislaine Maxwell will give up names advantageous to Trump. Those people will be publicly prosecuted. Trump will say, “There you are! All done!” and pardon Maxwell. The files will be quietly destroyed.

In breaking news, Australia has accepted US beef, and the US will take, in trade, Australian Beef Wellington.

Striking. After Texas banned abortion, ER visits for early miscarriage rose 25% and blood transfusions surged 54%. Doctors delayed care like D&Cs out of fear of prosecution. More women nearly bled to death. buff.ly/egXhmm7 #medsky #ObGynsky 🛟🧪

Strangely, I’m fine with Trump’s deal for Coca Cola to use cane sugar instead of high fructose corn syrup. However, I neither drink Coke, nor do I live in the US.

@bbcnewsnight.bsky.social And speaking of mistakes: Nick should learn the difference between Yogi Berra (it’s Deja vu all over again) and Yogi Bear.

I’m petrified about today’s science news. Genetically modifying crabs to have cheetah genes? This could go sideways fast.

There are an awful lot of Russian players in Wimbledon. They’re very good (all of the Womens Singles games today have one Russian player), but where do they go home?

Russia has just recognised the Taliban government of Afghanistan. Anyone want to guess where Taliban soldiers will turn up?

Wimbledon is absolutely riveting this year.

Trump is trying for peace with Elon more seriously than peace with Putin. It’s all about the secrets, isn’t it?

This will be so useful in the coming weeks www.bbc.com/news/article...

I’m waiting for Musk to tweet, in an intemperate moment, how he fixed the election for Trump.

Trump v. Musk: world experiences severe popcorn shortage.

Is Israel using the aide distribution as bait?

Kremlin tells Trump, “Calm down, dear, you’re too emotional.”

“I’m sorry we don’t have a plane to give you” is one of the sickest burns ever, and it went right over trump’s head.

You have to wonder: with all the bling, how fuel efficient is that Qatari jet?

Why is Apple dumping the Watch 10?

It’s not just that Trump can be bribed; it’s that he’s so easy! Trump Tower in Syria? Trump Tower in Saudi Arabia? In Qatar? In Moscow? He’s yours. The fancy jet is just lagniappe.

Trump’s administration is working its way through Article I of the Constitution, to see how many items can be violated.

Hegseth, Pirro: for someone who claims to be teetotal, Trump is enabling a lot of alcoholics.

The Pope comes in on little fog feet.

Trump wants a new plane from Qatar. What about US manufacturers, like Boeing? Oh, wait…

Remember apple.news/A47LM5eg3Qoa...

JD Vance is proposing that an invading aggressor gets to keep the territory stolen. Setting a precedent?

The Vatican physician is Andrea Arcangeli. Does she have a higher rank than the Pope?

So, JD Vance visits the Pope, and shortly after, the Pope dies. Coincidence?

The percentage of physically intersex people in the UK is 1.7%. Trans people? .5%. So, more people have actual sexual disjoint than have gender dysphoria.
