News from US brought a nightmare about dating a religious girl and her parents asking me to say grace. “there shall in that time be rumours of things going astray” Toss “where lieth those little things with the sort of raffia work base” Turn “their fathers put there only just the night before” 😱

Dear @labourpartyuk.bsky.social you may wish to fix this.

Imagine if Vance got a Nobel Peace Prize for effectively uniting Hungary with Europe and unblocking supplies to Ukraine 😆

I'm hosting #SundayPix tomorrow, and, well, there's a lot of everything going on, isn't there? So let's have #SundayPixCalm Your quiet photos, your peaceful scenes, your snoozing pets to bring some peace to the timeline.

All the band members sending this to their drummers today

This is hilarious because it implies that her husband DID call her while she was in space on the ISS to ask her help in looking for something. 💀🌌

Revealing this early as it’s a good Good Friday. This week’s #SundayPix is an Easter-themed #SundayPixEggs Can be eggs, egg-shaped things, things that grow from eggs, things that are made from eggs or anything that’s eggcelent, eggstravagant or eggceptional. Get ready to scramble.

I thought you’d appreciate this neighbour who didn’t mind me coming close to them today @chickenprincess.bsky.social

RIP Glen Baxter In my darkest moments I can make myself smile simply by thinking to myself ‘It was a small votive bust of Helen Shapiro.’ That’s the importance of comic art. Sad day, but y’know …

Audience numbers for this week's @SNLUK were in the region of 250,000 although the Metropolitan Police put them nearer to 25,000.

The opening to 358 pages of bliss. I spent decades thinking I wouldn’t like Wodehouse, and am currently in my third decade of being delighted that I discovered I did

Let's hear it for the writers.

UK Government report. Ecosystems as a national security risk. Some of you might want to ask your MP/candidates * how they intend to represent you on this matter in the House * with what priority, and * what measures and policies they see as essential assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/media/696e0e...

#SundayPixLeaf I enjoy how the weekly themes and writing Alt text for #SundayPix posts makes me look at, and think about, my photos again.

In 2008 a story broke that Robin Gunningham was Banksy. So the police looked into misdemeanours associated with Banksy. The ‘new’ story seems to be that those enquiries into Robin Gunningham were into Robin Gunningham. Making a story out of a plain tautology is the most 2026 thing possible.

Fantastic news in the UK today - the government has apparently ditched its plan to force creatives to 'opt out' if they don't want AI companies training on their life's work. www.thetimes.com/uk/technolog... 🧵 1/4

I know I keep banging on about my designs but it’s not easy being a small business at the moment. Take a look at my wares and please repost. gailmyerscough.co.uk Thanks!

I’ve never read it, but presumably there’s a reason why The Name of the Rose wasn’t just called Buddy

Perhaps a gold watch of American manufacture. But Who ever heard of a man riding a watch down the road or bringing a sack of turf up to his house on the crossbar of a watch?

Solidified in zero gravity, near-zero Kelvin, in the early solar system about 4.6 million years ago when Earth was still forming. Shattered from an asteroid during an impact who knows when. One day it landed in Morocco and eventually it found me. #SundayPixStone

THE CURE ALBUMS THREAD

People do what you pay them to do. You pay corporate executives to make stock prices go up, not to make better products. You pay politicians to get re-elected, not to govern well. You pay reporters to get a bigger audience, not to tell the truth. And so forth. Be aware of what you pay people to do

Lose yourself in this joyful little thread

Let’s talk about Smelt! We want to make an always-on podcast channel made up of multiple short-run scripted comedy series. This is because making a new channel for every series is a huge barrier to getting traction and attention, so we want to build an audience of people willing to try new things.

OK. I’ve settled on these. I’m glad I posted another tree before for SundayPixRed Locations are: Mill Hill, London Leek, Staffs Arnos Park, London Trent Country Park, London #SundayPixTrees

I’m going to have to control myself. I’ve got so many. #SundayPixTrees

Tonight, Labour MPs voted to scrap the two child limit – a move that puts us on course to drive the biggest reduction of child poverty in a single Parliament. The Tories and Reform UK voted against it. Don’t let anyone tell you voting Labour doesn’t make a difference 🌹

I just heard this beautiful poem read by Martin Sheen, which seems apposite for our poor American friends today www.poetry.com/poem/9356/co...

At this juncture if a US Republican put pencils up their nose and said ‘wibble,’ no one would bat an eyelid. Except maybe the UK Reform Party, who would applaud.
