Good lad, that man
They should put animals on the British money, and furthermore, it should be a hedgehog, a fox, an echidna, a hedgehog (girl), a hedgehog (arsehole) and a hedgehog (robot arsehole)
I'm sorry, I am simply not open to hearing what Ed Davey has to say if he doesn't say it mid-zorb
This was of my big takeaways from it too bsky.app/profile/alke...
I went to San Francisco once, I was only there for about 36 hours but I still found time to go on a trolley. It wasn't any kind of problem, it was really straightforward, they actually make it as easy for you as they can. I think some people are making too much of this whole thing
You will note I did not specify my motives
Going back in time to 2019 to show this to Quack
The answer to the trolley problem is to get one of those keyrings that has a little circular plastic fob on it that's the same size as a pound coin
There's a huge amount of ballast in the line at the minute
Never mind in the heart of Transylvania - there's plenty of us out here in the real world, myself and @alkennedy.bsky.social included, who actually preferred Count Duckula to Danger Mouse... *ducks*

Yeah, it's basically a smartly observed remounting of an entire aesthetic
She blocked me too, though I don't even have a joke to show for it
Three Birds is my absolute favourite restaurant in Edinburgh. The food is great and the people are terrific. Sadly, the Apiary and the Educated Flea are no more (the Flea is now Bistro Coco, run by the former Flea chef)
Watch with @emmaburnell.bsky.social on Grange Hill, @markreckons.bsky.social on Running Scared, @alkennedy.bsky.social on Count Duckula, @whenisbirths.bsky.social on Emu's Broadcasting Company and @gfrancie.bsky.social on Faerie Tale Theatre.

15. Little Mix - Black Magic
The bass between verses and the drums and handclaps throughout make this feel like the anthem of a cheer squad's direct action wing. The genetic material it's absorbed from John Parr's St Elmo's Fire is entirely to its credit too

That's the one!
worth remembering, David Lynch directed “fix your hearts or die” specifically at transphobes. it wasn’t a generic “no mean people allowed” statement, it was said by his Twin Peaks character in defense of a trans woman he cared for and deeply respected.
It's really great, you've got a proper treat ahead of you
I lost that little fella within literally minutes
I had to say Sludge (from the Dinobots) in case people thought I meant Sludge (from the Malibu Ultraverse)
Looking forward to doing similar with the alien face thing with the new Powerglide
I like how so many toys of Sludge (from the Dinobots) come with that extra little piece so you can recreate two frames of Transformers: The Movie; it's reassuring to know that there's one bit you can immediately lose and suffer no loss of utility or enjoyment
Are You There, Charlie Brown? It's-a Me, Mario
instead of "better or worse" you get asked how many lights there are
I also like how they say "As well ask men what they think of stone" is "caused by the author's aversion to punctuation", which suggests they think it means "Also, ask men what they think of stone", which is an impressive bit of misreading when you're only dealing with a seven sentence paragraph

16. Pixies - Classic Masher (2016)
I'm convinced if this had come out in 1997 it would have gone to number one. Listen out for Black Francis's ASMR-tastic pronunciation of "shnook"

Ok Chip got me actually laughin w this one...
I have been a huge MAD fan since I can remember. This is a thrill 🥲🥲🥲
FOC is TODAY so please preorder at your local comic shop!
If the three of you didn't win then I can only assume one of the other teams had Andrew Pixley
"You know how we cooked this thing once already? What if we did it again?"
"Worked with biscuits"
