Dude's never read War of the Worlds clearly
Just seen a video from an influencer calling B&Q 'Bequah' and I completely lost it
I'm currently at the "it's not a problem if you don't look up" stage of Jyn Erso's rebellion journey and will be for the next two weeks; mostly because the snooker is now on.
Over on TikTok, the dementia experts have given Trump no more than a week before he snuffs it. And they say hope is dead.
Know the work rules comic. Panel 1: Appropriate Lee Anderson appears at an office cubicle and says “Keir Starmer is a liar” to Lindsay Hoyle, who smiles and says “Awww, you’re sweet.” Panel 2: Inappropriate Zarah Sultana appears at an office cubicle and says “Keir Starmer is a liar” to Lindsay Hoyle, who gets on the phone, angrily yelling “HELLO, HUMAN RESOURCES?!”
Dancing is overtly political because it is when the bodies that are regulated, surveilled, or violenty policed declare joy & solidarity in social and public situations where conformity is explictly demanded. It creates affective atmospheres of excess that cannot be easily coopted nor controlled.

Walking the dog early on a Sunday is great because I can walk down the middle of a what is normally a very busy road with no one around, and pretend I’m in a post-apocalyptic zombie film.
There's about 8 billion people who could do a better job
Listening to Ally McCoist and Darren Fletcher commentate on TNT football is like enduring two pissed old Reform types ranting in the pub about the ‘good old days’. They’ve no decent insight, yet plenty of references to things that happened a long time before the majority of the audience were born.
Best use of a Partridge still on this website? It's a very strong contender...
And just like that, the #totp search function has borked. I'm not skeeting on my own!
If Bluesky goes down again during #totp, I'll not be happy
🎶 Brave Sir Kier ran away 🎶
Bluesky needs a fail whale

Now he knows what a 8:00am AAG conference session slot is like.
In all likelihood, his team told him to go out and say the image was 'doctored', but he heard 'doctor', so that's what he said because he's got porridge between his ears.

So I've spent this morning going through some of the 500 or so papers that have cited my #TacticalUrbanism paper - which is a *critique* of the term - and well over half of them have failed to acknowledge that. They've obviously just seen the title and assumed I was acknowledging it's benefits.
