Is anyone still trying to read anything into Trump's ravings?

Police are looking for a man having an extremely long break.

Looks like segregation between male and female choir members. I’m sure there will be outrage in the right-wing press

Maybe it’s the child that has to have ID, given that it is entering the United States?

Tarantino’s ‘From Dusk to Dawn’ felt like the longest night of my life.

Absolutely! Neither should have driven on the payment but I do accept that the one was dealt with more leniently than the other.

I can't say exactly why, but the fact that this was an ebike makes me more disapproving of the rider. Somehow riding a motorised vehicle on the pavement (apart from a mobility scooter) seems more irresponsible.

Could also be that a Lime bike went into me on the pavement as I stepped off a bus.

Is there an option to do the reverse process. I mean like, create a more difficult version of Ullyses, for example. I like a challenge.

Giving new meaning to the phrase 'cash cows'.

If you’ve managed to get through all of this by 10am, I think you’re winning!

Is Trump vying for the Iran job?

Forgot the @ for @rachelschine.bsky.social

Snap!

I think maybe rachelschine.bsky.social might be able to help

I hope he said, “I have a cunning plan…”

Correction : as any librarian will know, Dewey 420-429 covers the range of topics concerning the English language.

I was just testing.

You're right and I apologise.

I feel obligated to point out that I just made this up. It may or may not have been in the mind of the writer or director.

I get the sense now, that Americans who are living in London are assumed to be political exiles and deserving of sympathy and solidarity.

Yes, I am just about old enough to remember that! I was also on the anti-war demonstration, which I think is still the largest ever to have to have tken place in the UK.

But, while there was a lot of anti-American feeling, I don't think there was feeling against Americans. I mean as individuals.

Aw shucks!

Sorry, now I read this I understand that you were suspected of being a Republican! To be honest, I think there's a vein of anti-Americanism in the UK that goes back to 1775.

Londoner here.

You're clearly not, nor have you ever been suspicious, let alone terrible. But I don't understand (a) what kind of accent you have that might cause suspicion and (b) why coming from NY would allay such unfounded and irrational suspicions. I mean, nothing against New Yorkers, but...

One for all my cataloguer followers. Please respond in MARC 21.

400 covers all (non-English) languages so maybe the implication of the classification is that a gun is 'the only language they understand.'

I've just realised that if you can sing "algorithm" to the Gershwin classic "I Got Rhythm" and I don't know what to do with this amazing discovery.

Reminds me of the scene in "Cabaret" where Brian says to a man describing an "international conspiracy of Jewish bankers and Communists."

"lt's also an established fact that there exists another well-organized group of which you're obviously a member: The lnternational Conspiracy of Horses' Asses"

And all this could collapse due to a cyberattack, some future regime carrying out an Iran-style internet blackout or just some catastrophic failure.

I think we should be more worried about this (2/2)

Last night, due to a fault on my home landline, I had no internet access. Mobile reception inside my flat is very poor so I couldn't use tethering.

It's surprising how much I rely on the internet for so many things, from listening to the radio to ordering a library book to checking an address.
