Screenshot of a comment by user dogboydogboydogboydogboy. Comment reads: I didn't have olive oil so I subbed it for ghee. Didn't have onions so I changed it to crispy fried shallots. Didn't have any sausages so I used haggis instead. Didn't have paprika and oregano so I added Garam Masala. Couldn't find any wine so just threw in some sake. There was no stock so just added a flavour packet from some microwave noodles. Didn't have any spinach so just chucked in a few dandelions from the garden. No gnocchi at the shops so just used couscous. Absolutely smashing xx

Really enjoying the BBC Good Food website.

I Work Very Hard, And I Would Like To Try Cake By A Horse Hello. I am a horse. I work very hard at my job of being a horse. When humans say move the heavy thing, I move the heavy thing. When humans sit on top of me and pull on my head, I carry them where they want to go. The main food the humans give me is hay and oats. But I am thinking it would be nice to have a different food. I am thinking I would like to try cake. Yes, yes. Cake. I know all about it. When humans eat cake, it is in glad times. It is the food for a celebration, such as when a woman becomes 47. I have seen cake on the Fourth of July. When humans have a cake, they stand around it and clap hands and smile and say happy birthday at each other. Sometimes there are beautiful markings on a cake, such as balloons or a pink shape. Sometimes the top of a cake is on fire and a boy must blow on the fire with mouth wind. This is the scariest cake. I do not want this kind. But I will eat any other cake. Any cake that is not the fire cake that tries to kill the boy. Please understand: I do not get money for doing work. I do not get to go inside the house. All I am either doing my horse job or standing in my pen or eating food off the floor. I always do these things. But I have never once gotten cake and I would like it very much. I have noticed that human children get to eat cake. But I am bigger than the children. I am more helpful to the farm. Children do not move the heavy things like me or let anyone ride on them. And yet they get cake. Maybe the humans will realize this. Maybe they will say, "You know who deserves cake? That horse. That horse whose back we are always on." Every day I dream about what it will be like if I get to eat cake. Here is what will happen. First, I will walk to the cake and putt my nose at it like hrrfff to make and stomping my hooves to make sure it is not a snake. Then I will trot in a circle to show that I am a horse and I am large. After that, I will nuzzle the cake to …

The horse op-ed is an instant classic. I can't tell you how much joy this piece gives me.

It should be taught in every introductory writing class in no small part because the horse arguments are so compelling. "I have noticed that human children get to eat cake. But I am bigger than the children."

This is my favorite climate change chart. Japanese monks, aristocrats, and emperors kept meticulous records of cherry blossom festivals for 1,200 years and accidentally built the world's longest climate dataset.

A screenshot of Google's AI Overview answer to the question "is haggis an animal". It says "Yes, the haggis is a small, furry mammal native to Scotland" and goes on to give the typical "asymmetrical legs" details.

DOCTOR: I told him he needed to get out to a show, that was how he would cure his depression.

DR: No, not— listen it was good advice. Pagliacci was in town.

C: Right. Is it standard to give advice before learning a patient’s name?

DR: Now look

How Markdown took over the world - Anil Dash A blog about making culture. Since 1999.

Been working on this one for a while — it's a little bit of history of a key foundation of internet technology, and a little bit of an explainer about how people _actually_ invent things. This is the amazing (true!) story of how Markdown took over the world. www.anildash.com/2026/01/09/h...

The loneliness crisis isn't just male 23,000 survey results are in.

Good article on how the male loneliness epidemic discourse obfuscates that loneliness is a widespread phenomenon that primarily affects young people and may actually be more concentrated among women

"Business dynamism measured by the job reallocation rate was lower in 2024 than 2001 in every industry." This, IMHO, is the biggest potential blindspot in this government's growth strategy, not anything to do with taxes, borrowing or fiscal policy

a cartoon character on a boat with netflix written on the bottom right Alt: This kid right here, though.

As it'll be December tomorrow, your annual reminder that Klaus on Netflix is the best Christmas film of the last couple of decades & should be as much of a standard in your house as the Muppets or George Bailey. Looks great, really funny & will make you do a lovely big old sob.
