My experience is the bigger the crowd, the less likely the cops are to fuck with people. At the 2003 demonstration against the Iraq war, we had about 2 million people in London, and the cops didn’t like those odds and were generally polite and helpful.

Huh, the link must’ve been broken. Appalling.

“One more treat before bed, mother?”

Gerald, a fluffy Siamese mix cat, sits on a kitchen rug, with his tail modestly wrapped around his feet, and gazes soulfully into the camera.

Not a great photo, but a rare event, as all three baskets are occupied. Gerald, in one of his frequent displays of toxic masculinity, has claimed the top basket, after evicting poor Siobhan.

Skechers go walks are just about the only shoes I can wear for extended periods of time, and I endorse your suggestion.

Can attest to how good these things are, and how much my cats love them, and also how my thighs are no longer covered in scratches.

I have some absolutely miserable work to do tomorrow cleaning out our disgusting garage, and I am very glad I will have this to keep me entertained.

I love this episode so much. It’s my go-to comfort podcast when I really need to laugh.

Ah, so that’s who all the dead nonce jokes are about.

God, he is such a recognisable Michigan Type, just totally the dumb, spoiled rich kid of the local reactionary car dealer.

Ana Haunt @theweind.bsky.social · 3d

Really looking forward to this.

I used to love shrimp, and ate it without problem, but the era of cheap farmed shrimp brought me gastritis out of nowhere, and I firmly believe these things are connected.
