Smashed three car windows already to save dogs from the heat. Haven’t found any yet but I’m not giving up.

I’ve said it before, but there isn’t a better metaphor for project Brexit than this clip from Trailer Park Boys. It’s worth two minutes of your time. Enjoy. m.youtube.com/watch?v=lfya...

CLIENT: These federal charges seem serious. What kind of sentence could I get? LAWYER: Depending on the next presidential election, you're looking at somewhere between life imprisonment and becoming a millionaire.

For all the other disgraceful things about Reform’s leadership I still find this shocking. A man hurls abuse at a politician. Rather than defending her right to speak, Farage offered to buy him a pint and Yusuf to make him a peer. The descent is accelerating. www.thetimes.com/uk/politics/...

"hi, I'm a padded package with a book in it" "cool, padded with bubble wrap I expect" "oh, absolutely not" "so instead you're padded with..." "carpet scraps, cigarette ends, and asbestos, yeah" "and opening you might leave me covered in those?" "buddy, I guarantee it."

Happy one-year anniversary to the craziest sign I've ever seen in the window of a pizza shop

Quite bizarre "reporting"

You never really forget how to misquote sayings. It’s like buying a bicycle.

In fairness, and decoded from a Brit perspective, that likely meant 'Holy fucking shit, what *on earth* have you done!'

this seems like it’s just asking for problems

Definite @secondmentions.bsky.social in the FA Cup Semi-Final text commentary. Chelsea are “the managerless club.”

Well at least we now have more idea how a former Foreign Secretary then PM managed to attain and keep the posts despite obvious red flags.

Simple as that.

Scientists have been working very hard and have finally achieved what many thought impossible: a Mail Online comments section defending a Labour MP.

Shame he had his thumb over half the lens. Could have been a great picture

Dramatic scenes at BBC Breakfast.

uh no thanks

Jesus, they weren’t bloody joking.

Well that was a gig! Standing for two and a half hours was a lot easier in my 20’s but was worth it last night. The Feeling’s lyrical dexterity always distracts you from just how rock inspired their music is - and how ******* loud! Ears still ringing a day later.

At my first standing only gig since uni many decades ago!

CNN put together a montage of the regime's incoherent talking points about Trump's war on Iran

How does he sleep at night?

Announcing a 2nd season of Heated Rivalry already?

Guys being Dudes

Finally The Times investigative journalists unearth the reasons behind Trump’s yearning for public adulation.
