How many Brits could pass the Life In The UK test, let alone A-level English?

the internet went wrong in a lot of places but one of the most prominent is when you search for something specific and get generic results

Now that Rush has a female drummer, there will be at least one woman in the building during their concerts.

Shout out to the husband and wife Bryants, who also wrote Love Hurts, All I Have to Do Is Dream and Bye Bye Love for them.

We're still Enroning it. Earnings are strong. Profits up. Supply up. Demand up. Unemployment down. Productivity up.

I'm going as Smirch for Halloween this year. Hope no one makes fun of me

Be the smirch you want to see in the world.

Nice try and thank you but I still don't understand rugby.

It's criminal that both Cardiff and Newport only have a single station on the South Wales mainline. The most densely populated part of Wales and no intermediary stations between the cities. The next mainline station west of Cardiff is a ridiculous 12 miles out of the city as well

Tastes better when you tell yourself eating dirt is just a metaphor for modern American life and wash it down with a cold weak beer.

Brian Floyd @brianmfloyd.bsky.social · 6d

elsewhere in the seattle mariners extended universe a fan is eating small amounts of dirt he collected from the t-mobile infield every day because he wanted to change the vibes after game 1 and since it worked he’s trapped eating dirt every day

Why does it matter to Lays that they know? Frankly I'd be less likely to buy a bag if I stopped to think "Hey, this is just potato"

jon rosenburger @jonrosenberg.bsky.social · 4d

They're spinning this as a marketing fail but I think the real story is just that people are stupid as fucking rocks now fortune.com/2025/10/10/p...

Lay's drastically rebrands after disturbing finding: 42% of consumers didn't know their chips were made out of potatoes | Fortune

New bags—matte-ified and designed to look like wood planks (like a potato crate)—will hold the chips with revamped ingredient lists.

I'm going to conclude Duluth is too dull to live in based on it being the only city I know that doesn't have a nickname. (The closest it ever got was Zenith City of Unsalted Seas in the late 1800s, and even that was too flamboyant.)

On Sunday watch as "pumpkin pilots" paddle giant pumpkins down the St. Croix River at 2:30pm. Before the regatta, watch our paddlers compete in a friendly competition called the Battle to Paddle at n...

Just in rehearsal, watching the incredible Ensemble 360 be incredible. Oh my. This is going to be great.

TONIGHT! Come along if you’re within reach of Sheffield and/or on a mercy dash from the south to get some Hendo’s. This is going to be fab. I’m (a) super excited; (b) on my way!

He shoulda just shut up and laughed it off. Its either that or drop the gloves and say I am not a pedophile and there's no mud to drag me through so here come the judge.

Feels like there's doors Drake doesn't want opened

tincanman @tincanman.bsky.social · 5d

Maybe the strategy was to get us all talking about his illegal ineptitude instead of the P word. Like Trump and the Epstein list, only Drake doesn't have a national guard to deploy in farmers' markets.

He sure has a knack for racking up those Ls. Bet if he was Wanted on a milk carton he'd sue the cow.
