Eh, they made #Andor so I’ll cut post Lucas Star Wars some slack. Enjoyed watching The Clone Wars with my son too. Rebels wasn’t for me but let a thousand flowers bloom, say I

It’s not the most imaginative choice but I would love to spend a day driving the Wienermobile around London. Expensive to get it here, I would think
Thank you for your service :)
The reaction that you get from sticking your tongue out at a toddler never fails to get a laugh from parents. This stuff is just absurd - and I'd feel that way even if didn't have a doofus who's just turned 18 and is living overseas
Just a reminder that from tomorrow EU #petpassports for #dogs and #cats resident in the UK won't be valid. You'll need a UK animal health certificate costing typically between £100 and £350. The rules are complicated and time sensitive so familiarise yourself soon! #Brexit www.gov.uk/taking-your-...

Ah, the land yacht. I remember them from a childhood in North America, but wouldn’t want to actually own one - particularly not today
“We just need to talk to you about putting alt text on images“
So I think it was @anildash.com recently who was contrasting with the early days of the web. I paraphrase: “You know what we didn’t need to do? We didn’t need to beg people to use our shit.” But they were building a labour of love, not a cash grab. Early web’s roots were DARPA but at least not theft
Crap, beaten to the punch. Take a bow sir

Yes, that framing is absurd but tt's infuriating that no Minister ever has the guts to say "that won't help our energy dependence at all. Anything coming out of the North Sea gets sold on the international markets. We can reserve it for use domestically as you well know."
Eh, I see where you’re coming from. I just don’t agree. Let’s agree to disagree and leave it there. A thought provoking interaction. Thanks for keeping it civil
Uh, you know that’s still about 40% of what the rest of the world pays for liquid fuel, right?
So you’re arguing that a lack of moral perfection justifies descending into your opponents‘ ethical gutter? So much for when they go low, we go high. Augustine stole pears, Jesus referred to non-Jews as a dogs. If this is the moral permission you need to become what you hate then, uh, good luck
Bless your heart; Mandela and Gandhi to name but two won with moral truth. No one is suggesting passivity. In a time of deceit telling the truth is a revolutionary act. But you do you

Both are belting songs by @wearejames.bsky.social. @timboothlyrics.bsky.social really, really knew how to write a song. Runaground always blows me away, every time. 30 years later. They're currently touring! www.thetimes.com/culture/musi...
Trump has always been a bully, and like the most effective he has the unerring ability to zero in on a target's weak spot. For the Catholic Church, unquestionably that's child abuse by priests. And yet in this screed he doesn't punch his target's weakest spot. I wonder why he's gunshy about that 🤔
Corvette. Drove on in the US. Wallowed in the corners like you wouldn’t believe. Quick in a straight line but absolutely not a drivers car in any meaningful sense
You should be better than your opponents. That’s how you win. Truth defeats lies. Lying down in the gutter with liars demeans you and cheapens your cause. And moreover, tactically it’s stupid. They have more resources than you do. They will beat you if you accept that the battlefield is “propaganda”
We are barking up comically the wrong tree, aren’t we?
This has been fascinsting. Thank you for sharing - I love this place and the interesting people we get to meet
This is fascinating. I’d thought that what they've been eating is also a function of it. Corn and acorns - fine; rotting meat - yuck? Personally I like gamey flavours but my wife isn‘t so keen. Does smoking help to hide taint?
Would have been my guess. Chitty or Treitel also possibilities
So @amandamull.bsky.social was just considering this. In a nutshell it turns out that having our noses permanently pressed to the glass of Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous isn’t good for our mental health. Who could have ima that?!

Supposedly the meat from feral hogs really doesn’t smell or taste appetising, but this from a distance and I defer to local knowledge en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boar_ta....
I feel like one of the workers at #Chernobyl trying to measure radiation with dosimeters several orders of magnitude too limited to deal with the situation. Except it’s my ironimeter that seems to have jammed on max
