There is always a tweet.

The Green victory in Denton is the result which will have the biggest effect on Labour, far more so than a Reform win.

The blithe assumption progressives have nowhere else to go has been proved catastrophically wrong.

Can’t help thinking of this quote from a Labour minister, a year ago…

Was going to do a joke post about Chris Mason saying "a historic night for Reform as they finish ahead of Labour, what does this teach us about the white working class in the north? Also, the Greens won" but too many of you would, sensibly, assume it was real.

Love this!!! Denmark 🇩🇰

Please shoot me.

Officers from Thailand’s Metropolitan Police Bureau went undercover as a lion dance crew in order to catch a wanted burglar who had managed to evade arrest several times before, local media reported.

I propose to make universal the old policy of the Blackfriars conference at the American Shakespeare Center:

If you do not end your paper on time, you will be forced to exit, pursued by a bear. Literally, a bear will come take your paper from you.

Okay, this is quite outstanding from Bedford Council.

So I don't know if he counts as a 'senior royal' (probably not), but...

Arthur Plantagenet, Viscount Lisle (bastard son of Edward IV) was arrested, held AND released, and only died because he was so excited about about being released that he had a heart attack two days later...

Counts?

Somewhere, somehow, at a right-wing tabloid, the most deranged Meghan story of all time is being birthed

every British historian rn frantically trying to find examples of British royals being arrested that don’t end with their execution

Yorkie looks unimpressed to be 10 years old today. He’ll perk up when he gets his celebratory steak later 🥩

Many people have told me I should change my last name, but instead, Donald should change his.

"Donald Epstein" has a nice ring to it, don't you think?

Good grief. Everyone knows they were just friends.

Two giraffes. One looks like it is posing for the camera and the other is coming in from the side like a photo bomber

When I see anyone taking a selfie…

read that first paragraph if nothing else:

Our Grand Frais and Biocoop are next door to each other, which is perfect and worth the 40-min drive

It would be hilarious if the outcome of all of this drama was that, a decade later than advertised, we finally got chaos with Ed Milliband.

Former British Prime Minister was involved in threesome with Ghislaine Maxwell, it's obviously Johnson.

There are no good mental images here. Do not set forth upon that road.

McSweeney is gone. Time for Starmer to try to salvage his government by launching long overdue proper action to address all the flaws in our political system - peerages, patronage, cronyism, party finances, MPs revolving door, appointments, ministerial code, business interests, Leveson, etc etc.

I'd pay to watch this #RealityTV show

My photo shows two Roman gold-band mosaic glass bottles on display at the Met Museum. Made of mosaic patterned translucent cobalt blue, turquoise green, and opaque white glass, together with gold leaf encased in colourless glass. Both bottles have round bodies, flat bases, and cyclindrical necks with horizontal everted rims. The larger bottle on the left is 10.5 cm tall, the smaller bottle on the right is 4.8 cm tall. They are displayed on a clear glass shelf against a light beige background. According to the museum label: “Gold-band cast glass was a particularly opulent type of early Roman glassware. It combines canes of brightly colored translucent and opaque glass with strips of gold leaf encased between layers of colorless glass. Only a limited number of vessel shapes were made in this way, and some of the most common are small globular or carinated bottles such as these. They were presumably used to store expensive cosmetics and perfumes”.

Luxury Roman scent bottles made of gold-band mosaic glass. 1st century AD.

This opulent glass was made by encasing strips of gold leaf between layers of colourless glass.

Beautiful example of the skill of ancient glassmakers some 2,000 years ago!

Going to be bleak when we find his name in the files

hand painted uniforms, green leaves, red horse, a puffy skirt, gorgeous green head wrap. My god they are beautiful.

I don't really care much about the Olympics, but Haiti's uniforms take winterwear to epic new levels of awesomeness. The only hand-painted uniforms in the games, for a nation (to quote designer Stella Jean) 'that refuses to disappear.

☺️ Thank you, Emma!
