Think it might be a mental illness that I'm still listening to this Rosalia album as if it's water in the desert. I don't even speak Spanish. She could be explaining why Ayn Rand was right, actually, for all I know.

Between 2016 and 2025 I harvested the details of all series in the National Archives of Australia four times. The data is now in Zenodo and I hope it will help people understand more about the shape of the archives, how it changes over time, & what that means for our understanding of the past […]

Rather sick of hearing from that disgusting bigoted hatemonger, how about we try and raise up some trans folks instead? If you are trans and are an artist, writer, gamedev, musician, or creative of some variety? Reply below with links to your work(s)! Only one rule - strictly no generative AI.

I needed a break from the political BS coming at us at light speed so out into the garden I went. I was pleasantly surprised to find Swallowtail caterpillars munching on my mammoth dill. Now, they're tucked safely under insect netting for a better chance at life. 😍

Getting vaccinated saves lives. New data shows that global immunization coverage has moved forward in 2025. 85% or 110 million infants were immunized in 2025—nearly 1 million more infants than the previous year. Let’s make sure children don’t miss out living healthy & joyful lives: bit.ly/4pvS1uX

Took the kiddo to the local raptor centre today and he was chuffed to help out showering "Jefferson" the Bald Eagle. I managed to get this shot, which really shows the nictitating membrane (aka 3rd eyelid) well. #raptors #Alberta #Canada #birds 🪶

UK commentary team currently commenting on how much more interesting the Argentine commentary team has been in a monotone so profound that you have to admire the commitment to the bit.

Well I’ve spent the whole of #NorEng drawing the three English lions on a tote bag, time well spent even if we don’t win

Didn't buy enough booze for extra time

Not to worry. Kane's played golf with Trump, FIFA will overturn that goal.

Sorry but they should have let Ally McCoist commentate this one he's just good at it

Been drinking Karsk because it's the only Norwegian recipe I could find that doesn't contain a pint of reindeer blood. If this game's half as good as the Mexico game I'm just straight up dying of a heart attack.

Had a great time out here tonight. Fuck you you gorgeous little weirdos, gnight.

@shoomer5.bsky.social Bethany, if everyone did the deep dive I do on people before they follow someone back, the Internet wouldn't exist. You are impeccable. So many posts that feel like sort of thing why I still believe in humanity. Thumbsupemoji.jpeg.png

@petalsketch.bsky.social hi! If you don't mind me asking what do the three hearts in your bio mean? I'm an older fella trying to negotiate the Internet and failing every time. Is it just your basic trans positivity or something more particular?🌈✊❤️

Good reminder from Mr Vonnegut.

Government agents killing people on the streets isn’t big news any more.

Unfortunately, a stunned Paris is how they all got into this whole mess to begin with

It has been criminally underreported but Kelsey Pfendler has just rowed solo across the Pacific Ocean from the US coast to Hawaii in record time. A 2,400-mile unsupported journey in 43 days, 17 hours, and 55 minutes. Notably beating the Men’s record by 9 whole days.

Binface is on Ko-fi. Just thought I'd mention it. ko-fi.com/countbinface

That was extraordinary

Eleven?

So...... Mexico have got it back to 3-2, there's twenty minutes left, England are down to ten men and this is one of the best soccer matches I've ever seen. I'm not saying wake the kids but I am saying don't let them go to bed

120bpm sitting down is normal, yes?

That's a tremendous penalty

No matter. He'll definitely be allowed to play the next game if trump just calls up the FIFA peace prize board

Remembering why I love soccer right now. Bristling with anticipation for the second half

An absolute banger of an exclusive from the Sunday Times. It's devastating. For the first time, I'm uncertain if Farage can actually survive this www.thetimes.com/uk/politics/...

Do the Germans have a word for the feeling of only understanding which team you're actually supporting when they score?

The real story of the FOXP2 gene, & what it can & cannot tell us about human language, is complicated & fascinating, & it does not involve any extraterrestrials.

seeing all the trump-FIFA stuff and i’m making the call to root, anti-colonially, for Belgium. now to look up anything they ever did just to make sure,
