A 100 lead in the 2nd innings on day 2 of a test match feels eerily familiar. Standing by for fireworks this afternoon! #TheCricket

What is happening with English cricket? 9 overs gone, I don't understand why we're not 90-7 #TheCricket #EngvsNZ

Married at First sight is seriously problematic and led to rape and non+consensual sex acts? Really? You don't say. Who could have predicted that? What a dog shit awful concept from the start, sorry for the women affected.

Kash Patel just heard about shots at the White House and he's jumped straight onto the first private plane "LETS F'ING GOOOOO!" He was heard to shout

1. London Underground station flooding has reportedly been reduced by around 90% thanks to a group of engineers: beavers. After conservationists reintroduced a family of beavers into a nearby city park, the animals built dams and restored wetlands that now absorb and slow floodwater naturally.

I always try to write down my wildest dreams when I wake up too

the overwhelming message the AI industry has sent to young people is “this will ruin any chance you have at a stable career”, of course college grads are booing it regardless of the reality of the claims, the way this technology has been sold is one of the greatest self-inflicted PR disasters ever

Sobering. BlueSky has an average 15 million daily users, meaning 14,999,998 of users actively dislike 99.99% of my posts

Gerry Hartmand arrives outside Four Dragon Ford Have enjoyed Children of Strife as much as the rest in the series, this moment arrived and I roared @aptshadow.bsky.social

Wes Streeting challenging Starmer for leadership feels like going immediately to the bottom of the barrel. At least when the Tories spiraled down they went through some semi-competent (if still useless) statesmen first.

Egwene, Nynaeve, Elayne, and Aviendha.

Not only do Democrats need to win the next election, they also somehow need to convince the Republican party to be better. And fix everything Trump has broken. And fix the Supreme Court. And society. A gargantuan task indeed

Why am I watching these back to back ? I can't take the trauma!

Finally getting to watch The Pitt in the UK. Cannot take my eyes off it. Into the 3rd hour, oh my god the journey and emotions I'm going through. This is amazing and gripping TV

🚨BREAKING🚨: Trump deploys military to blockade the Vatican

Why does the image of the article remind me of that moon/earth nipple photo? This is like Trolloc Nipples all over again Alt: OP links to a guardian article about food intolerance. Image shows what appear to be a finger tip with a red dot a bit like a smartie/m&m in the middle

Great news from the wonderful Pat Cadigan: “In case you couldn’t hear me partying here in London, I beat terminal cancer. I kicked its ass down the stairs, took its lunch money, and threw rocks at it as it ran away crying. I don’t have cancer any more.”

For a long time I've wondered how many more people would vote Green if they were confident that their vote would count. Now we're seeing that confidence.

Hunter Biden & his Laptop vs Don Jr & Eric in a doubles matchup on the Whitehouse lawn.

I just had a work call with a new starter where we spent fully 50% of the call geeking out about how awesome #TheWheelOfTime season 3 was and how devastating the cancellation was. It warmed my soul 😍

I said at the end of 2020 that America's best bet was to just make Donald Trump their King but like the UK king. No real power, just the title and wealth. It would have been a much simpler solution.

Meanwhile innocent people are dying for a pointless illegal war to distract from his other crimes

I like Last one Laughing but I have a natural instinct that tells me to boycott it because it kept #TheWheelOfTime off the #1 spot for so many weeks

Mission Accomplished

Luckily due to the genius negotiation tactics of Herr Trump we have averted WW3. And all it took was caving in to all Irans demands and returning things to roughly where they were before he started bombing them and cementing the Iranian guards position. For the next 2 weeks at least.

Feel sorry for all those Americans who would genuinely want to celebrate 250 years, but who will feel they can't because the Orange turd has made everything about him so they feel they have to boycott.

When I need cheering up in future I will go back to this post where these heroes delivered the broadcast moment of the decade. Deliciously awkward, perfect delivery of the disrespect the office currently deserves
