Man’s not hot

What’s the family dynamic here? I’m down with anything, just interested

Busta Rhymes has guested on so many choruses, he’s the Michael McDonald of hip hop. But the Yang to his Yin, because he brings the rough and Michael brings the smooth.

Not denying new worrying drought conditions - but that looks like leaf miner moth which affects horse chestnuts this time of year making them shed early www.woodlandtrust.org.uk/trees-woods-...

Horse Chestnut Leaf Miner (C. ohridella) - Woodland Trust

Not denying the drought-like conditions, wildfires in countryside are a worrying new trend BUT I have to say that actually looks like damage from leaf miner moths which cause horse chestnuts to go brown and start shedding months early www.woodlandtrust.org.uk/trees-woods-...

UK online safety law in practice.

Conversely at Anthony Minghella’s ‘Breaking and Entering’, another hard lad who was probably expecting more of a Guy Ritchie-esque burglar thriller got up and walked out halfway through announcing loudly to all “This film is shit bruv!” He wasn’t wrong.

Couple of hard lads sat behind me at Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon. When it started they were all “Aw no! Subtitles, I can’t read and watch the pictures” They were about to walk out when the first rooftop flying fight kicked off and then suddenly they were shouting “This is the best film ever!”

It’s every man for himself at the all inclusive

Taking multiple photos of the same subject and altering these variables each time (while maintaining the same overall exposure) is a good way to help you visualise these different effects.

These three variables all control how much light gets to the sensor or film. If you decrease one you will need to increase one of the others to maintain the same exposure - but each has a different knock-on effect. Shutter speed: amount of motion blur. F-stop: foreground/background blur. ISO: grain.

Drove past Bibury the other day and saw it’s stunningly beautifully preserved cottages, unsullied by modernity - thus attracting busloads of brightly-clothed tourists wandering past which doubtless would have got right on Jenkins’ tits. I suspect he would prefer a world with no humans at all.

Very droll but can I remind you that the *actual* US Secretary of Health doesn’t believe in germ theory and thinks diseases come from bad air

Time to buy shares in VPN companies I reckon

Glastonbury - Osees Powerhouse riffs from the veteran psych-rock band on the Park Stage.

I already knew Osees are the best band on the planet. Should you need convincing… www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/epis...

‘Interestingly’ watching that now it seems that the lyrics were “Here comes the Lilt VAN” all along #mandelaeffect

My advertising pitch for the Royal Albert Hall today didn’t work out. I still can’t figure out why they didn’t go for my “Up the RAH!” campaign.

‘Boris’ bike scheme was initiated under Livingstone’s tenure I believe but launched under Johnson. Heatherwick Routemasters are lovely though, shame they were too expensive to roll out fully. Maybe some of the millions wasted on a non-existent garden bridge might have covered it

Me too

Not the first time I’ve read a headline and found myself muttering “Bloody Tories” before remembering that we now have a Labour Party government. www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2025...

Have they stopped doing the ‘hilarious’ John Peel meme over there yet?
