Adam can grow recycled kale or whatever nonsense he wants, Alice can add a wet bar to the Stables, Kate can finally set up the cult she's long wanted to lead and Ruairi can establish the "Best little whorehouse in Borsetshire". #TheArchers
89 candles would have set off the sprinklers, so we settled for one — and one perfect slice of cake (with @bradtakei.bsky.social on ice cream duty). Thank you to every friend, fan, and fellow traveler who has made these 89 years such a joyous voyage.

Japanese engineers developed this "Sword Tip Visualisation" tracking technology specifically for this event that will make it so much easier for the average person to see what's going on!
I MUST WATCH THIS ENTIRE TOURNAMENT
Today I turn 89. I’ve seen this country at its best and its worst, and I know how much community matters. For my birthday, I’m asking you to stand with PFLAG and support the work that’s helped so many in the LGBTQ+ community, including me. give.pflag.org/page/95493/d...

Marginalizing people, ideas, or facts has no place in our state — and they have no place in a democracy.
This National Library Week, we continue our commitment to free thought and free speech.
I think Thüringer sausage is pretty close to bratwurst, though.
