stop thinking right now

The image is a cartoon scene featuring characters from the Winnie the Pooh series. Piglet, Tigger and Winnie the Pooh are all sitting at a table drinking tea with blankets wrapped around them The text on the image reads: top: "Anxious? Depressed? Burnt out?" bottom: "You might be suffering from Seasonal Affective Disorder" with "Seasonal Affective Disorder" crossed out and replaced by "CAPITALISM" in bold letters.

1817 map snipping, "Well. Well. Well."

Look what we have here then.

sisyphus but it’s just me opening and closing the door for my cat all day

Forgive me for sounding like an extremist, but if the purpose of society isn't to house, feed, and care for its members, what the fuck is the purpose?

When I worked in historical archives, I received an enquiry from someone who thought an ancestor had been part of the 1924 Everest Expedition. Letters revealed he was a grifter who tried to pass himself off as such and had been giving lectures on the subject. Awkward reply to write...

think if you're broadly a centrist and were suuuuuper concerned about attacks on free speech from the left and so you decided to give the right a hearing then you need to realise you were taken for QUITE the ride (and don't really have anyone to blame but yourself)

If you need a tl cleanse... let me offer 1 minute of sunrise over Carmarthen Bay, from North Beach, Tenby (Wales, UK):

oh just FUCK off

St Catherine's Island, Tenby, cut off by the tide. Eight people visible on the beach.

Looking south from The Croft, Tenby, towards the old Lifeboat Station. Overcast sky with sun breaking through near the horizon in the centre of the image.

Tenby, Pembrokeshire. View of boats in the harbour, at high tide, with a view of the town behind.

Tenby at dusk. View of the floating harbour at low tide. Harbour buildings in the centre of the image with Georgian house behind and above. Cloudy skies.

In Tenby. One of my happy places. Weather is... undecided. I've already had chips. And fed coppers into the arcade machine. Low key bliss. ☺️

2h ago 10.29 BS1 Police are not using live facial recognition in its policing of the 'Unite the Kingdom' demonstration which is beginning on London's south bank, reports the PA news agency. It said: • We're using a mobile CCTV van to help monitor the build up of crowds. Officers have been asked if it's using 'live facial recognition' - we can confirm it is not. The live facial recognition technology - which captures people's faces in real-time CCTV cameras - was used in the policing operation at the Notting Hill carnival.

Ah yes if black and brown people throw a party we need to scan their faces.

White supremacists organising a hate march do not need to worry about their privacy. The police have them covered.

This btw is also why everyone arguing for digital id in this country is either naive or dangerous.

Aw. Maru died. RIP boxcat.

The image features big bird sitting on some steps, holding a book titled "Communist Manifesto." Next to big bird are two children sitting and looking at the book. Text in the image reads "S is for Seize the means of production."

Let's be clear: The flood of hatred sloshing across Britain right now is 100% a product of the political and media elite scapegoating minorities for the harms that those elites have visited upon the country.

Can anyone make use of a single train ticket from London Paddington to Bristol Temple Meads on Thurs 11th Sept?

Leaves at 7.30pm and has a bike space booked. Face value when purchased ws £32.50. I'd like a £20-25 donation to Medical Aid for Palestine in return. I can post 1st class to you.

This is AMAZING.

Twanged my lower back!

Currently in the midst of a sitting issue. Standing and lying down actually marginally better. Might take a 3 month bed sabbatical. I am fifty, so I think it's time.

That's nearly 40 seconds of my life I'll never get back. I am also traumatised.

As someone who sees to have twanged her lower back in the last few days... it mals right there.

Ooo. I need to get some of these. I've discovered you can also buy whisky pipes!

Racists are like bears. You get one bear scoping out your house, leaning against the doors at night, and it's freaking you out a bit so you think "well maybe if I leave it a nice big jar of peanut butter, it'll go away."

And now you've got 20 bears, and they KNOW you've got peanut butter in there.

This makes me happy for reasons I don't understand and don't want to understand

"I've got their current hit on wandering minstrel..."

Ah, there were Circumstances. Still...

They really don't help themselves, do they?

Can't even build death star anymore, because of ewok

A cat curled up next to the model of a building, creating the appearance of a giant cat.

this is what happens when everyone feeds the same stray

Who doesn't enjoy an impactful horning...?

It's simple, if you throw paint on a plane then you get proscribed and any 80 year olds defending you get arrested.

If you ask people to burn down hotels, and they try, you get an interview in the Telegraph and positive coverage in the BBC.

That's sensible, proportionate policing.
