Could you not just use DeepFake technology to replace Greg Wallace with Carrie Fisher?

TLDR for me… but is the graph saying pet owners start lower?

The specific part of my brain Freddie is boosting is the yelling—shut—up—area. Generally.

This video shows the passage of my puppy smuggling bill, from raising the issue my maiden speech to the third reading in Parliament yesterday.

I'm so proud to have delivered this massive win for animal welfare exactly a year after becoming an MP!

Oh well done Danny!

It’s a cool encounter! …but he wasn’t Swiss. Surely like Liverpool claiming to have won the 2023 Eurovision, because we hosted it?

#Eurovision… and Switzerland invented… the internet???

OK!!

Whereabouts are you seeing that wording Ewan?

🤦

Which trending feed was that? I thinking giving the Met some cheese is a great idea though.

Found a new trick to see *why trending* on bsky at least. Running bsky in Edge, click on the trending topic then ask copilot to summarise?
May save me quite a bit of scrolling of a morning!

I see ClaudeAI are now advertising $200 a month plan! That seems extraordinarily expensive doesn’t it?

A near universal annoyance of sci-fi. Helmet lights point in which would render the wearer blind to anything outside of the helmet! Always style over substance.

These rockhopper penguins have had it easy for too long, and dont get me started on so called King penguins. Who do they think they are strutting about like they were emperors?
About time we sorted them out.

@britishvets.bsky.social on Bluesky New data shows 1 in 5 UK small animal vets saw illegally imported puppies last year. #BVAVetVoice With increased concerns around imported diseases like rabies, we're urging Govt to progress the #PuppySmugglingBill into law. 1/2 @dannychambers.bsky.social https://www.bva.co.uk/news-and-blog/news-article/1-in-5-uk-vets-report-seeing-illegally-imported-puppies-last-year-as-bva-calls-on-government-to-act/

Illegally imported puppies

I do wonder what the penguins are exporting to the USA to create the surplus/deficit, perhaps snow?? America not proving very successful at selling snow to Antarctica?

@fullfact.org another one for your list?

Not much being said on what the Trump Tariff table (LHS) really shows? It is distributed widely, but what is the column on the left? Buried on the BBC website it suggests =round(100 x (trade surplus)/GDP)? Seems strange to get so little discussion. Deficit does not equal tariff or barrier obvs.

Image shared with claim about family in London is 2016 stock photo from Malaysia - Full Fact Social media posts have claimed the photo shows the family of a person called “Khalil”, who supposedly arrived in the UK by boat and lives in a five-bed home in north London.

An image is being shared online with claims it shows a man who came to the UK by boat and is taking the government to court over his housing.

But it’s actually a 2016 stock photo from Malaysia. We’ve found no evidence of such a legal challenge.

PhD position at UCL…

There is an irony, is there not, in an employer sending emails to staff about compulsory cyber-security training courses… that contain an html link to an external site…. that one is supposed to click to do the course?

A bit late on this, but it’s cool. Who gets it!?

What nine months in space does to the human body Astronauts Suni Williams and Butch Wilmore are back on Earth - but what has nine months in space done to them?

What 9 months in space does to the human body.

The human body evolved to function in the gravity of Earth. So time in the weightlessness of space can take years to fully recover from. 🧪🚀🦵🏼

One hundred And one?

This is exactly what it feels like

Who else buries the vodka, Gavascon and Imodium under the vegetables in the supermarket trolley, when you see an influx of your students filling the shop.

Interested to see it, but not sure how sound the logic is?
