Needs to be a vaping equivalent of carnivorism. (The current substitutes don’t really cut it).

This is the most incredible footage of blue whales I’ve ever seen

A reminder, before a certain movie probably makes a big thing of it again:

A young Irish couple did not provide the critical data that made Stagg tell Ike to delay D-Day.

The most critical data came from HMS Hoste, alone out in the Atlantic.

The Blacksod story is nice. But it's not true. /1

NASA has confirmed it's targeting March 6 for the launch of Artemis II

Fifth exclamation mark successfully compensates for social skills A fifth exclamation mark has successfully masked an autistic man’s social awkwardness, it has been confirmed.  Ryan Wilkins, 34, who struggles to compose work emails without sounding like a regency…

Ryan Wilkins, 34, who struggles to compose work emails without sounding like a regency gentleman challenging a rival to a duel, recently decided that five exclamation points were the sweet spot for conveying that elusive laid-back enthusiasm.

Keely Hodgkinson broke the indoor 800m world record last night - set on the day she was born 24 years ago.

She becomes only the second Brit to hold a WR along with Jonathan Edwards' triple jump mark.

There were five spin-offs from Happy Days.

Halfway through Small Prophets.

Mackenzie Crook is the premier chronicler of the modern English.

I hope Boney M. will be properly credited.

Also, Tom Hagen *was* a wartime consigliere.

Today Milan. Tomorrow Minsk. (If she’s not in a pinsk).

Place Colignon, Schaerbeek. Incomers acquiring plots here were forced to choose a façade for their new home from among the prize-winning entries in an 1896 public competition. These had to reflect the values of art "that the Renaissance spread among the civilized nations."

One lone wolf road gritter and this could all be over.

The artisanal brewery of traditional drinks called Maslow’s Hierarchy of Meads.

Just made this. I’m a widely respected intellectual, you know

Random episode of #TheSopranos flicks on. S3 finale. Jackie Jr’s funeral and wake. Uncle Ju sings Core ‘Ngrato. It’s actually Dominic Chianese’s voice. His performance. Still incredible.

A contemporary engraving depicting the execution of Cromwell, Bradshaw and Ireton – b/w image shows gallows in foreground, a bonfire, a crowd of people and horses, and at the back a building with three outlines of heads on spikes

Well, as it’s 28 January, it must be time to mark the 365th anniversary of that most rational example of that most sensible of judicial measures, capital punishment. Yes, this was the day Oliver Cromwell’s corpse was exhumed so he could be hanged and beheaded for regicide 🧵

Nigella to GBBO is, and will be, the best piece of business in the January transfer window

The last surviving WW2 auxiliary pumping station on the Thames at Charlton
