Between a "No Other Land" crew mate filming himself being killed by a settler, to a journalist being killed by airstrikes he was covering minutes earlier, I'm not sure how much more televised Israel's genocide can be

I was going to say that I'm sure I remembered him standing on a box. Hahaha. What a band!

Seeing an awful lot of people sick with Covid right now.

Many saying β€œCovid is back”.

It never left. That’s why some of us are still advocating for mitigations.

Every infection is a dice roll with disability.

Wear a mask. Clean the air. Stay home when sick.

Ivor’s obsession with Paw Patrol has led to us buying him a larger version of the car belonging to Chase, the police dog. The added burden of carrying this item about has caused Ivor to name it β€œheavy Chase”

Once, as a TV reviewer, I remember watching the first episode of a new series and delighting in its lack of tedious exposition, how it allowed us to learn about characters by their actions, with no thick wodges of lore or backstory to digest. Turns out I'd started with Episode Two by mistake. 1/2

Ahead of the US President's historic meeting with the Russian premier in Alaska, let's just quickly catch up on the situation live from Moscow:

A man with a spectacular 1970s mullet, wearing big wellies and a v-neck jumper over a T-shirt, looks at camera as he stands on a boat which is itself standing on the muddy bottom of an empty canal. He is holding up an enormous wooden plug on a long chunky chain

Today is the 47th anniversary of this clearly unimprovable photo, from a story so absurd that it shouldn’t be true, but is: the day a team of workers from British Waterways pulled the plug out of the Chesterfield Canal, and all the water emptied out

My guess (as a musician) would be that lots of us have the genes for neurodivergence that also cause adhd/asd/EDS, and make you more likely to get LC.

If you're contemplating sending your Legos in to help make ramps, or canes, or wheelchairs..

Don't.

Instead:

1. Send Lego bricks here, they will get them to kids in need - www.lego.com/en-us/sustai...

2. Then send $20 to a disabled person requesting mutual aid, because what were you thinking.

"PhD-level experts in your back pocket" is a completely nonsensical description of AI but a pretty good description of social media if you follow the right people

Currently listening to this and absolutely loving it: out in a few weeks via @handofglory.bsky.social but recorded well over half a century ago. A proper lost gem.

Bishop's Stortford Independent

A Β£10 purchase of a broken electric piano on eBay led to the chance discovery by a Bishop's Stortford record label of 80 previously unreleased songs and a rock opera - written by a Luton band called Genesis over half a century ago - that could rewrite musical history

A black and white photo of four young men wearing paisley either side of a tree. Next to it is a colour photo of two men in their 80s, both grinning.

Absolutely love that our superb local paper The Stortford Independent got the international scoop on this!
More to come very soon...

"carbonara" means "in the style of charcoal makers". He just took that a bit too literally
