A comic referencing Amazing Digital Circus Episode 5. Spoilers Ahead. Panel 1: Jax bites into Evil Jax like he did at the end of the episode. Panel 2: Zoom in on Evil Jax's face. He's blushing from the bite and lets out a "Mmmph ❤" Panel 3: Zoom back over to regular Jax, no longer biting Evil Jax. The background is pure black, and Jax has a look of intense disgust and anger. He says: "You're ruining this for me..."

Including diverse customers & employees strengthens business

Miller's America First Legal agenda of hate will lead brands foolish enough to follow it right into a dead-end with customers

It's a thing of absolute beauty, a form of beautiful art that continues to glide along, doing its thing nearly 50 years on 😍

Dr. Who is a terrifying premise. Don't like the idea of an alien that can go any where any time but still chooses to mostly hang out with the British.

#SemaphoreSunday just visible through the halo-like haze of clag from 58023 at Kidderminster station during the Severn Valley Railway spring diesel gala last month. Great to finally see this fairly rare survivor in action & get some mileage behind her. #Class58 #BritishRail 15/5/25

Morning all. Into a new week, I hope it’s good for you all.
Still sporting its British Rail corporate blue, 37154 sits inside Eastfield TMD receiving a bit of TLC. The loco survived until 1999, and met its end in 2000 in Wigan.

#SundaySeventyThree Once almost unheard of this far north, nowadays so common that I think I was the only person photting 73961 'Alison' as she passed through Kettering yesterday afternoon. A closer look at Colas Rail 1Q99 Tonbridge West Yard to Derby RTC. #Colas #MML 31/5/25

For photo 20 of 200 to celebrate 200 years of railways it could only ever be a photo of a class 20 😊

Reform to begin Musk-style audits of councils – BBC News headline

If you’re looking at Elon Musk’s DOGE and thinking that is how we want to have our bins collected and potholes filled - you might be learning the wrong lesson.
