Fantastic article, but particularly clear on what was widely known and covered for by the whole family but particularly the Queen.
The shallow attempt to disassociate themselves from the vicious little shit must not work.

This is an absolute cracker from J Draper: youtu.be/j7C9YUwPtGk?...
there's so much bad in the world but there's also people who lift up and carry an elderly bat around every day so he can pretend he's flying again, and that's the part of the world I think is worth fighting for

Three panel comic of two people talking. Text reads: WE INVENTED A ROBOT THAT ANSWERS QUESTIONS WE JUST HAVE TO FEED IT 10 BABY GIRAFFES A DAY BUT IT ANSWERS THE QUESTIONS CORRECTLY? OH MY GOODNESS, NO. NO NO NO NO NO
This comic is sublime

Coffee, straight out of my nose.

Just got home from this, watching @misterabk.bsky.social bravely face down an evening of quite spectacular technical hitches, courtesy of the venue, and still charm the pants off everyone π€£ Fabulous evening. You have to go, (esp if you are in Belfast apparently)
So - Maggie πββ¬ + the clonky floorboard in the bedroom. She steps over it - but if she wants me, she hits it perfectly for max CLUNK. Dimly aware during my lie-in, there was a full-on Wilson, Kepple & Betty dance going on + I kept my head under my pillow - to the disgust of my annoyingly clever cat.
A friend has just typed βRizzoβ instead of βRizzioβ and I now want The Muppets Do 16th Century Scotland.
I am especially here for Miss Piggy v John Knox. He doesnβt stand a chance.
Kansas has, overnight, invalidated the driversβ licenses of trans people, a pointless cruelty that upends their lives
If Brits think βit wonβt happen hereβ think again! Groups in the U.K. who want the same thing are routinely invited to consult with Labour and normalised in our press!
Itβs been suggested to me that βSlipping in my own tearsβ would make a great name for a podcast π
Now wondering what it should be about? π€
Comic. [Person is sitting at a desk with a laptop, turned toward voice coming from off-panel.] VOICE FROM OFF-PANEL: I got you the ingredients for dinner tonight. Oh, and the plums in the fridge drawer are for my yogurt tomorrow; you should just leave them. Be back later! PERSONβS THOUGHT BUBBLE: Oh no. [caption] Help. It actually happened. I shouldnβt. But how can I not!?

this is what blew my mind: www.youtube.com/shorts/LHKT4...
I saw someone making it on a ytube short floating past and assumed it had to be rage bait. But if you search for it even here on bsky it there are a fair few examples - so I am so confused
I'm sorry what now? Blinks

For context I had a flippin' massive TN event about 4 weeks ago in the street (fortunately friends were there) after which the pain leveled off at about a 7 or 8 without end since. I am hanging on for the next lot of Botox on Thursday.
Doubled over, leaning on the kitchen counter crying so hard that teardrops were splashing on the floor. Which I then promptly slipped in with me slippers. Didn't fall, but felt I'd rather over-done it with the drama.

Meanwhile the βpsychologically flawedβ Gordon Brown, having enacted the most redistributive economic policies in the UK for the past 50 years, and saving the UK from full impact of 2008 - is still engaged in acts of public serviceβ¦.9/
I know I buy far too many books but I like to think that lining the walls of my house with them wards off evil in some deeply important way.
Note from my notebook (2016). Nothing has changed.
A Folio edition of Pigs I Have Known (1958) by Sacha Carnegie
I try my hardest to stop buying books but sometimes it is just too difficult.
Top marks to Bedford Borough Council on both history and astrophysics. π
HELLO I WAS A QUEER TEEN IN THE 1990s AND THE ARGUMENTS AGAINST SOCIAL TRANSITION NOW ARE INDISTINGUISHABLE FROM THE ARGUMENTS AGAINST "LETTING" US BE (at the time, for me) GAY OR LESBIAN THEN.
They all rest on the belief that it's inherently better to be straight (then)/cis (now) and that's BS.
really enjoy that the bloke who won two golds on the luge is someone who was a national level taekwondo fighter until he got injured and then a government figure stepped out the shadows and said "let me tell you about project going down a hill really fast"
Out of all the hoo-ha about Malinin (annoying but obvs talented chap) - this is a deeply uncomfortable father/son picture and I have a lot more sympathy.
