If a Pakistani Muslim owned X, distributed indecent images of girls on a platform where govt do their PR, where some receive payments for posts, they would have distanced themselves by now. X would be shutdown and Braverman and Farage would be calling for a ban and investigation into Pakistani men.

This is ridiculous - iPhone photo of aircraft at 5000 ft. At one time this would have been a good photo with a long lens bridge camera. (It’s only blurred because I was walking the dog). #iphonephotography #manchesterairport #emirates

Hey, @greenleejw.bsky.social - c 1800, transportee to Oz: “… our voyage was at an end … came about two miles from what is now known as Point Lonsdale. The Natives call that place Koonan, which means eels, that fish being in great abundance in almost all the streams running into Port Phillip.”

“Not supported by science” is a beat weak as a headline - Wakefield literally made it up. He paid random kids at a party for blood samples; science had nothing to do with it.

Went to a funeral on Friday. Woman in front of me had an oxygen tube and was in a wheelchair, adorned with a big badge saying Karma. That seemed a little harsh.

No wonder some days are not productive. Go on Wikipedia for legit work question, scan deaths and find myself reading the obit of a dead Catholic I’ve no interest in (RIP to him and all that). Came on here to post that observation and end up reading @fesshole.bsky.social for five minutes.

when you're finally in bed after another exhausting day of pretending to be human:
a painting of a woman laying in a bed with a blue blanket and a white pillow
Alt: Gif with the painting of a woman laying in a bed with a blue blanket and a white pillow, there are three different cuts of the same painting, each getting closer to her face. She's seemingly exhausted and / or in distress.

If only terrorists could be more like Pete Hegseth; it would make life a lot easier for security agencies. As it is, he just makes it easier for people who think the US government is run by idiots.

I’m looking forward to Trump dumping Musk with a comment about “he’s not very smart”. I’d pay for tickets for that one.

Walking the dog in the dark on the golf course listening to a story about vampires is fine, until you think a flag is a person.
