The thing about Marjorie Taylor Greene doing the “I didn’t think the face-eating leopards would eat ME face” bit is that she very clearly thought she was one of the leopards to begin with.

Marjorie Taylor Greene told me to go back to my country and kicked our then-18-year-old communications director.

And then sent an army of trolls and death threats my way when I called her out.

She doesn’t get to play victim now.

Feel like my two year old nephew wouldn't be looking so relaxed if he knew how much pressure our family is putting on him to make this Christmas extra special and different from other years.

The conflict between "No heritage artefacts have been affected by this damage" & "between 300-400 works, mostly books, were affected by the leak - and that the count was ongoing."

It's ok, it was just 19thC "Egyptology journals" and "scientific documentation."...
Water leak in Louvre damages hundreds of books
The leak in the Egyptian department comes just weeks after a jewellery heist that put the museum's security infrastructure under scrutiny.

So love wobbegongs. Everything is good about the wobbegong. Its name. Its flattened Oscar the Grouch face. Its frondy bits. Its lazy life as a hungry rug. And it’s a shark. Outstanding animal 10/10
The Tasselled Wobbegong is a master of disguise that can eat a fish almost as big as itself in one gulp. It's classified as a shark, but when it lays on the sea floor it looks like a harmless rug if you manage to see it. But with powerful jaws and sharp teeth they are no fish to mess with.

Whoops, deleted the quoteskeet about Aardman Animation using AI. Fell for a ragebait headline before reading. Apologies, all.

bsky.app/profile/rapt...
The original article this article is leeching off of and voiding of context for ragebait points.

It's a nothing statement, Aardman isn't switching to ai. The kind of "ai" here is the same automation stuff we've had for years, but renamed ai to attract investors.

It's Toy Show night so I can't wait for American blueskyers to get mad at us because there's someone in the administration called Glenn ToyShow and he's the deputy secretary of the department of crushing orphans or something.

This by @seamas.bsky.social is out in April. it’s my favourite kind of book - a short book with loads of voices that feels like an epic. It’s all about buried trauma and how we commemorate stuff and it’s moving, angry and very funny. It’s brilliant really.
