Happy abseiling lesbians day to all who celebrate!!!

Growing up in Sheffield a lot of people only used the back door. Especially in a house like this where the living room door opens right onto the street

Right wing nut jobs: Mamdani is going to impose Sharia law on NYC.

Actual Mamdani: please stay warm by reading the free hockey smut available at your local public library.

This raises a question for @nogodsnomayors.com and @postoctobrist.bsky.social: if the Mayor of New York has a sanitation department zip jacket, is he also entitled to wear DSNY dress uniform?

Renfrew Christie Dies at 76; Sabotaged Racist Regime’s Nuclear Program

Holy hell, what an obituary

Something tells me if he actually loved trans women he wouldn't be listing us between "mom son stuff" and piss play on the bio of his secret bsky account but what do I know?

update the thing that's most confusing is "during a flight, cabin crew would take young passengers up to the front of the plane to meet the pilots and look out the front window"

YouTube video by V&A Up Next Rose Schmits Breaks Down Five Iconic (& Bizarre) V&A Ceramics 🏺👀 Unexpected Item

Did a really fun video with the V&A at their cool storehouse location! WAs such a delight to get to see some of really cool objects up close and chat about art ehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1Js3LV1KZ7M

You can and should pick up your own copy here.

Those pictures don't do the print justice, the colours look impossibly vivid irl (I think they would be impossible with CMYK!) and there's something wonderfully nostalgic about the slightly looser registration between colours.

A comic titled "I know the way out" in wavy block capitals, in white on a starry sky which fades from deep blue through aqua to fluorescent pink behind silhouetted skyline of tall, dense pine trees. "Chrissy Williams & Tom Humberstone" is written in pink. Next to it are a small pin badge of the same pines silhouetted on a dusky-blue sky, and a bookmark showing a human figure facing away from view, a glowing white silhouette with branching pink lines like roots or perhaps nerves radiating all over their body from the base of their neck. They stand in a pine woodland in shades of blue and black.

Just got my hands on this beautiful poetry comic by @chrissywilliams.bsky.social and @tomhumberstone.com. It's wonderfully written and illustrated and it's an artifact that cries out to be treasured and studied thanks to the way the art engages with it's printing process.

Jesuit Commentary Track - Wake Up Dead Man Two Jesuits provide a commentary track sharing their perspectives on the Church and pastoral theology in relation to the film.

Had more than one person tell me they wanted to hear "a Catholic commentary track for WAKE UP DEAD MAN," and it was a fun excuse to rewatch the movie with my Jesuit friend JRod as we talked about how this thing feels from the perspective of young clerics currently immersed in theology studies.

Thank you for this! It was really enjoyable and deepened my appreciation of the film and its theology

i made a bot that posts random wikipedia birds if that would help

"Webgewicht" in particular ("weaving-weight") is not exactly a term crying out for glossing if you have the first clue how weaving works.

Webgewicht – Wikipedia

Both German and Spanish have Wikipedia articles for loom weights (de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Webgewi..., es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pondera), so I think the problem might be that philologists have never been to a living history museum

Bit rich of Kid Rock to have a go at people for performatively dressing in a way which indicates their gender and political identity when he's dressed like that.

Dazzle Ships, South Docks, Liverpool Shipping, 1918, by Edward Alexander Wadsworth.

That's an awful lot of words in my mouth that I didn't say.

How do you think we should be working to stop the genocide of Palestinians? How's asking nicely working so far?

You don't get to do the "look we're boring respectable middle-class liberals" bit if you cave in two decades earlier to the people who want to eliminate you from visibility and public life. And the way you don't cave in is Stonewall etc.
