Another dream shattered

A writer goes in search of her most vicious online troll and finds a middle-class 74-year-old woman who has made more than 120,000 trolling comments on the Daily Mail alone, but sure, it's teenagers who need their online experiences surveilled and censored. Archive link. archive.ph/pPrha

Relief! #Genealogy

A starry night walking home at the weekend reminded me of this fancy dress costume worn by Marjorie Merriweather Post in 1926, a dark sky chock full of beaded stars plus all of the sparkly accessories #HillwoodMuseum #FashionHistory 🗃️🪡

I've just seen the cover to the Complete Trumptonshire blu-ray, and now I need you all to see it too, so there can be an outbreak of delighted cooing and "aw" noises all across Bluesky. It's done my heart the power of good, it really has.

I think I could probably post a Puffin photo every day for the next couple of years I took so many. They are just such an amazingly photogenic bird! #wildlife #birds

The gulls need oiling again.

Passive aggressive letters of the C19th: I haven’t very much more to say as we haven’t received any letter from you but I hope as soon as this reaches you that you will return one as quick as you can for I am sure from the word we have herd that you haven’t much Else to do only write #Genealogy

This is the best film complaint I’ve ever seen

Medieval bat in stained glass at King’s College Chapel, Cambridge

I have found a small piece of evidence to back up a hypothesis that everyone else just assumes is true. I *might* share nicely some day... #PearlsBeforeSwine

Guy who went on holiday to Toontown and made it his whole personality:

If anyone would like to see a short video of a dog using their tail as a rotar blade, this is your lucky day.

That time someone said, "Oh you're one of those science is right idiots" to me and I just knew in their head they were actually using "your" and not "you're".

Overnight, a masked bandit broke into our kitchen. Armed with opposable thumbs, he proceeded to sample everything on offer. I’d just visited the farmers market, so the menu was extensive. I can now share a highly specific peer-reviewed list of what this particular raider did & did not enjoy. 🧵
