Not allowed to buy cigs (or presumably tobacco products) at least.

Screenshot of a tweet: God Save Great Britain & @GSGB01 WOW: The NHS has ordered staff not to use the phrase 'It's raining cats & dogs' in fear of upsetting people from other cultures and religion. Britain has gone absolutely

Screenshot of a tweet: @Jenny_1884 The NHS has ordered staff not to use the term "It's raining cats & dogs" as it may offend foreigners. Tough If you don't like it jog on is what I think The NHS needs to get back to concentrating on making people better & not being more concerned about offending

For the love of God, could the "common sense" brigade PLEASE develop some actual COMMON SENSE?!

No, the NHS has not ordered staff not to use the term "it's raining cats and dogs" for fear of either upsetting or offending anyone...

Please engage your brains for a minute🙏

Didn't they already bet on this, and it not pay out??

But like every wheel they have "discovered" it's different because it's tech bros 🤷🏻‍♂️

Vittorio sat next to Morgon for another comics gig and gave him a fuss, he's a good egg

Who? The comedian not the stranger. Not testing your precognition

I agree it doesn't disproportionately represent the 73 compared to the 20, but very poor design to have a percentage shown as colour in a bar without it filling that amount of the bar.

Fascinated by their visual representation of 73% being a bar of less than 50%

Luton Town won the EFL Trophy after defeating Stockport County in ‘El Hattico’ so we were COMPELLED to do some new drawings and make some new mugs. Strap in, didn’t go well. Contains Jack Wilshere.

There are some, although maybe less recently, that seem obviously written by someone else, but that could easily be him being given something to copy and paste, especially as they often have a tail in his real voice.

When I first read Raising Steam I thought Dick Simnel was Fred Dibnah, but on a reread I think he's much more Guy Martin, and it came a couple of years after Guy appeared on TV (other than racing)

Hungary election: Viktor Orbán concedes with opposition on course for landslide election win - follow live Hungary's prime minister has been ousted after 16 years in power, with Péter Magyar set to be the country's new leader.

A glimmer of hope in very dark times and another massive fuck you to Trump and Putin.

Well done and thank you, Hungary 👏👏

But why would you lie??

Photos of me with text: It’s not offensive to swear. It might offend someone’s sensibilities but that’s different. It’s always an old person like: “In my day we didn’t use those words.”

Me with text: Okay then, how about you make a list of the words you DID use back in the day. And we’ll see who has the more offensive vocabulary.

Let’s go toe to toe, gramps.

Oh mate, very jealous of you getting to watch afresh

Writing that in a quote tweet of yourself saying it, repeating enough to be clear you're presenting it like someone else did. Are the other 6 him as well?

Love to see this: A new poll conducted in Hungary has shown that JD Vance's visit to Budapest caused Putin puppet Viktor Orbán's party to LOSE 3% of its support. ⬇️

Hnnnngggghhhhhhh

The Telepgraph article about Billionaires reform backer Ben Delo pledging to move back to the UK to fund the Reform party and circumvent a new cap on overseas donations.

Patriotism isn’t leveraging wealth to bend politics in your favour. It’s paying your fair share.

That’s why we back caps on political donations - home or abroad - and why MPs must act to ensure UK mega-donors are included in any limits.

two men are sitting in a chair with the word deeelic on the top Alt: Greg Davies (The Taskmaster) sat in his throne next to a tiny insignificant bearded man. With open captions reflecting what Greg is saying, that being "Deeeelicious!"

The contrast of Kumail and Joel's interviews has made me really look forward to the new series.
I won't spoil it with which of them says "I can't do things when I've got my eyes closed"

One of the few shrewd moves Starmer has made, at least publicly, was offering Trump a second state visit. It was offered with such fawning insincerity that a child would be offended, but it was offering something that made Trump feel special, and it worked (for the 5 minutes it held his attention)

What this might teach us is that generally the shareholders or 'stakeholders' of any entity are not people with any fucking clue what the entity is or what it ought, ethically, to be doing.

This is not an interview with teachers; this is an industry brochure secretly titled “100 Ways to Use AI” disguised as an interview with teachers. Like recipes on the back of a box of Velveeta.

The rationale seems to be, "if we don't put AI in our search, we'll lose use to AI-powered search engines; we can't afford to run a full-fat Gemini query for every single search, though, so we'll offer cheaper and faster responses." But the end result is a wide perception that Google's AI is bad

A 'Dinosaur Smarties' Easter egg.

Erm, they're called palaeontologists, actually.

She always couches it "call me ill-informed", yep, that's precisely what people will do. Think you're on the money with a humiliation kink.

Earth and Moon from DSCOVR NASA's Earth Polychromatic Imaging Camera (EPIC) aboard the Deep Space Climate Observatory (DSCOVR) satellite captured this unique view of the Moon as it moved in front of the sunlit side of Earth last month. This view shows the fully illuminated “dark side” of the moon that is never visible from Earth. Ian Regan processed this version of the image to account for the Moon's motion.

I hadn't seen this before. This is pretty remarkable.

One of my long standing app ideas has been one where you record your voice and then modify it until it sounds how you hear it yourself. So you could share how you hear yourself with other people.
