My mums birthday card arrived in Greece today. Only took TWELVE WEEKS to arrive. New record unlocked. 😂 ✉️

In the case of the Oscars I believe that every recipient since 1951 has had to sign a contract giving the Academy first refusal to buy the statuette back for $1 before it can be sold. So in that case you can’t sell the award or the Oscar.

And don’t get me started on, “A jack of all trades is a master of none, but oftentimes better than a master of one." …. No one ever completes that one!

Gigs too. If there’s a hot drummer or guitarist…

How Grok's sexual abuse hit a tipping point Nonconsensual deepfakes on X are nothing new, but now it's built into the platform.

@lucympowell.bsky.social @jessphillipsmp.bsky.social it’s grotesque that the UK gov still using X as an official comms channel… spitfirenews.com/p/grok-csam-...

Approving of the newly refitted @puregym.bsky.social at Urban Exchange. The new machines are nice and all. But the lighting is also much less homophobic and that’s definitely a win.

I don’t often share these. But quite pleased with how fast I got it today. You could even say it was a takedown 😉

Nice bathroom 😉

Actual drag name I saw the other day. Grace Wetpants. 10/10 no notes.

For me it will always be lodged in my brain as, “I’m addicted to you. Do you know Sandi Toksvig?” … which admittedly makes less sense.

The BBC news notification on my phone was truncated to “…Nadine Dorrie’s d…” and for a fleeting moment my brain autocompleted it to “dead at 68 from her own malevolence”

Love the unexpected “surprised Ben” in the mix there. 😂

And they gloss over the photos being stock shots being an unconnected failing. Even if the article had been true they’d still have illustrated it with fabricated pictures.

Those of us outside the US are just amazed that once again you’re only just getting something that’s been commonplace in Europe for decades.

Sweden once trialled an even better system. The fines went into a pot and were won as lottery prizes by drivers obeying the limit.

I don’t think I’m going to need to worry about putting on weight on this holiday… 🚶

A screenshot of a TikTok ad suggesting a search to try on TikTok shop for “jimmy savile outfit” WTF.

Seriously TikTok? Is there a big market for dressing as disgraced dead paedophile? 🤯

It’s an account I don’t follow and have never seen before that got pushed into my feed. It’s not the end of the world, there will be a new season of drag race starting within 24hrs… 😝

It’s also why we post things like “what a great winner, so well deserved” so those who know know. And those who don’t, don’t get it spoiled.
