Surely that story was first broken by @thedailytism.com ?

In other news, I don’t know if it’s the UK weather and pressure changes but this month I keep having #migraines. Basically every week. I am not a fan of this, whatever is causing it needs to go away.

We call it Pride Rock 😂

Croissant the tuxedo cat is reclining on a carpeted wooden platform attached to a window. Her eyes are wide and ears are perked straight up, with white whiskers contrasting with her face’s black fur. Her back feet have little white boots and their pink and black toe beans face the camera. Her front feet are primly in front of her, like little white slippers. Below the platform, her sister Brioche, a tortoiseshell cat, stares out of the window, away from camera.

I just found out that #WhiskerWednesday is a thing and what do you mean I could have spammed people with #cat pics outside of Saturdays?!
Anyway here is Croissant with one of her classic expressions.

Yeah no that’s the part I did get! It’s the first word I was trying to math! Have now been instructed that the “or” helps explain it 😁

So I got it because I got the second word and *gestures at chemistry degree*. But how does the first word come in?!

Tap

…if this happens I swear I’ll crawl my way toward Guy’s house, bringing cat pictures in return for currywurst

I didn’t know this, did you? Amazing!

Very much recommend doing this - will improve your reading life!

TBH one of those did allow a very very small sausage dog to actually be quite menacing. Maybe it’s secretly about canine inclusion.

As a 6'4" man who has spent the morning flyering, people who have their letterboxes at the very bottom of the front door should be fed to wolves.

Someone with the handle @velocity69.bsky.social is sharing a video with the caption:

"The highest quality video of the moon was just released…
so beautiful

* Artemis II"

It's gone viral, but it's not from Artemis II. If you've shared it, you might want to un-share.

Next week’s disability cuts will make people destitute – and you might not understand how bad they are until it’s too late | Frances Ryan If new claimants don’t meet strict criteria, they’ll lose half of the health element of universal credit. Don’t ignore that: in life’s lottery, that could easily be you, says Guardian columnist France...

“Ministers justified reducing support for people too disabled or ill to work by arguing it would remove the “perverse incentives” that discourage employment… as if a twentysomething bedbound with ME just needs “incentivising” to get back to the building site”

Okay FINE it’s pretty cool I guess

Thoughts and prayers 🤞

It is utterly terrifying that Palantir is being pushed onto the NHS whether patients want it or not. The Good Law Project page makes it ridiculously easy to write to your local NHS trust- take a minute to help us all keep our data safe from their hands!

NGL this makes me feel better about the typo I put in a work email yesterday.

Oh this has made me lose it 😂

A meme image of Sigourney Weaver as Ripley, wincing away from the head of an alien xenomorph from Alien 3. The text on the alien says 'click here to use our new AI features!' And the text on Ripley's face says 'Me'.

Every. Goddamn. Company.

NB. extra context for each in the alt text!

Three cats sit in the sun wearing colourful harnesses attached to extendable leashes. In the foreground are my legs, sitting crosslegged on the doorstep. Brioche the tortoiseshell is on the left wearing a pink harness. Mousse the grey tortoiseshell is a bit further out in the middle, wearing a purple harness. And croissant the tuxedo is on the right, wearing a blue-green and black harness. Not to do advertising but these are Mynwood jacket harnesses and they are amazing!

A picture of Mousse taken today- she is sat on wooden stairs and looking above the camera. Her ears are really big now and her eyes are open wide. She is and looks very clever. Her fur has peach coloured patches, including one side of her upper lip.

A picture of Brioche taken today. She is resting on a dark blue couch, one front paw forward and her eyes half closed. She looks like a truly noble beast. She still had a big orange stripe down her face and one side of her lips and chin is black, the other side is cream coloured. She is gorgeous, if extremely weird (still eats soap).

A picture of Croissant taken today. She is sat on a wooden floor, right by a cardboard roll that contains her favourite feather on a stick toy. She is looking up expectantly, eyes very wide with her white whiskers somehow adding emphasis. We have to keep that toy away from her because she literally gets out of breath from playing chase a bit too madly, but will keep playing and would probably keel over rather than take a break.

One year later we have Big Girls 😍
I sang them happy birthday and gave them treats this morning. They do not understand the concept but also it is important to celebrate cats.

A screen showing a blurry photo of tiny newborn kittens seemingly suckling from their mother or huddling together. They are inside a blue-green cat den box, which is padded with furry lining.

A picture of Mousse as an 8 day old tiny grey kitten, sprawled on a garden chair. Her head and front paws are near the camera, her little eyes are closed and her ears are ridiculously small. Looking at her is making me want to cry she is so cute.

A picture of Croissant as an 8 day old tiny tuxedo kitten. She is held up around her middle by a large man’s hand, in front of a garden chair. Her tiny claws are out, her little eyes are barely open. Her white belly and paws are partly pink. The black hair on her tiny head is sticking up. She is smaller than the hand holding her.

A picture of Brioche as an 8 day old tiny tortoiseshell kitten. She is on a garden chair but leaning and nuzzling her face into a large man’s hand. One incredibly tiny front paw is on the hand under her head, the other sticking to the side like she’s trying to swim forward. She has an orange streak down her face, and her tiny eyes are closed. If you would not be ready to die to preserve this kitten from harm, I’m afraid you’re a monster.

It’s the girls’ first birthday! 🥳
In 365 days they have gone from tiny sprouts to chonkausoruses. Please enjoy a before and after. Again, brace for unbearable cuteness… #CatSky #CatsofBluesky

the thing is, people could easily just watch the fucking shitty wizard show and keep their mouth shut abt it. but they want to not only do whatever they want, they want to tell people about it and argue about how they're still a good person. they want everyone else to assuage their guilt for them

A close up picture of Brioche the tortoiseshell cat sleeping. Her face has an orange stripe down the middle. Her back foot is in front of her face, with perfect little toe beans. Two are pink and the others are black and pink. She is twitching in her sleep as I take the pictures, clearly dreaming about all the ping pong balls she’s going to hunt.

No but seriously 😭

A tortoiseshell cat sleeping on a dark blue couch. She is short haired but quite fluffy. Her little front paws are crossed in front of her face and a back paw sticks out from under them. One front and one back paw show some toe beans that are black and pink. She is precious and beautiful.

In the last hour of #Caturday please let me bring you my biological daughter Brioche and her perfect little sleepy face and toe beans 😍 #Catsky #CatsOfBluesky

No one is trying to tell you that you are not allowed to feel nostalgic for what Harry Potter may have once meant to you as a kid; they are literally just asking you to not fund their destruction.

Re: my last reposts

“Do not put money in the pocket of a woman who has sworn publicly to use it to disenfranchise vulnerable populations” is the smallest ask imaginable. It’s not oxygen, it’s not food. It’s television. You can do without. There are thousands of other shows for you to watch.

user abbiistabbii: The Germans really cooked making "Hobbyless behaviour" an insult. It is both devastating, applicable to a wide range of people and behaviours, and doesn't resort to swearing. Man ranting on the internet about the Superbowl halftime show or complaining that something is "woke"? Hobbyless Behaviour. Girls mocking another girl for not looking right? Hobbyless Behaviour. Mindless vandalism? Hobbyless Behaviour. It is more powerful than "get a life" or the English "You're Sad" because it gets to the central point of the matter, and that is wonderful. Danke, Deutsch.

I don't normally subscribe to the "German has a word for it" thing because all languages can invent and borrow new words!

That said, I can't stop thinking about "hobbyless" as an insult since I saw it a few days ago, so here you go

It promotes a growth mindset!!
