I take that back it’s a label they say you have to use for ai generated imagery.

A parade of images all with so slop text. I think there’s even an option to have ai write the caption for you.

No kings lithograph

A lithograph I made for my new Wines upcoming label.

My life would be immeasurably improved were there an ai has been involved with the caption blocker for instagram 😂

Finding the original RL Stevenson opening sentence and seeing how it was once more different. Brilliant. Properly made my evening.

@brianrobmoore.bsky.social hey, read your translation of Mari's the Black Arrow last night and as soon as I realised the protagonist was interrogating the different translations of English to Italian, the metatextual joy of realising I was reading it translated back was brilliant...

The alt text killed me 😂

La Spia Valtellina PR28 label, showing a handsome pale blue steam train.

Thomas the tank engine, a handsome pale blue steam train.

Would anyone fancy photo shopping Thomas the tank engine onto the La Spia PR28 wine label for me as it would please me greatly.

If I had explain American history in one sentence, I could do worse than "John Brown was hung for treason, but Robert E. Lee was not."

I just wish the lyrics weren’t so incelly

Just popped the Echo Falls in the fridge.

discovered today that Americans do not know the word 'more-ish' when my entire zoom group was confused as to why I would describe fruit gums as "Moorish"

Exactly, fruit leather, of which they somewhat resemble is more of a Persian speciality... Moorish would be what you'd call an ice lolly on account of it's evident descent from sharbats...

My first wine was named 'Not my King', it went down brilliantly in Chiswick 😂

I know

Remind me again how much dear old Queenie paid to have her boy's rape case go away - £12,000,000

am somewhat baffled by the people being referenced here... why is Owen Jones being brought into this? 😂

@henrygjeffreys.bsky.social going to have to stop calling you babes and switch to the slightly more cockney aw'right dolly bird

I have a theory that there's a rough line that bisects Europe, below which parsnips are horse feed, above which they're much loved winter veg and it's roughly where the winter freezes occur early enough to affect the veg

yeah, a bit like parsnips the freeze breaks down some of the starch in them so they end up tasting sweeter...

That’s a rabbit hole I don’t think I want to go down.

Name a protest movement, anywhere or at any time, that has achieved its goals without being annoying and obstructive.
People like this enjoy the freedoms our political ancestors gained for them, while attacking the means by which they were achieved.

THE GARDEN'S PERFECTION IN VEGETABLE SOUP 75 I took one can of concentrated vegetable soup, half a can of milk, and three stewed apples, mashed. The result imitated the original to perfection. We still keep it as a special treat on our menu, especially in summer, when we chill our puréed vegetable soup with apples Normande and drink it from twelve-ounce highball glasses. We have given this recipe to countless guests, for with the first sur-prised, pleased taste they never fail to ask.

I gift you all the most cursed recipe I’ve seen in some time.

Cartoon. Venn diagram of two circles intersecting. The left circle contains the text 'Tristram Beer', the right circle contains the text 'Tristram lemonade'. There is no text in the intersection, leaving the reader to fill in the gap.

You don't need to have read it to get the joke

spider no?

love this

I don't, am also a little ambivalent about exact grammatical rules. So long as meaning is clear I think we should allow language to evolve with immigration. Imagine if we didn't have the poetry of Benjamin Zephania..

I don't think this goes far enough. I think we should demand A level standard competence of English from all people that are allowed to vote.... if you can't correctly place a comma you can't vote reform 😂

Love a turnip, that savoury radish adjacent flavour. How cold a part of the world are you in? Do they get the heavy frost treatment that makes them sweeter?
