I'm sorry: its' just objectively very funny that the man in charge of the failed rocket shaped like a massive thingy is called Dave Limp

That's a headline and a half. If you don't know why, don't Google it.
MeidasTouch@meidastouch.com · 45m agoJUST IN: Trump is scrambling to stop the BBC from digging into the finances of his business empire after a judge ordered him to hand over records in his $10B defamation lawsuit against the network.
That was such an open goal for Kemi: just say you disagree with his neo-Nazi views, that you can't support his candidacy, and walk away. But she spent days supporting him, and has now given him a job. She's utterly tone-deaf and stupid.

Pre-birthday meal of a huge ribeye steak cooked in garlic butter, with peppers mushrooms and onion rings.
Dave Brockman 💙💛@davebrockman.bsky.social · 2d agoEarly birthday present just arrived: some steaks, pizza, beer and wine! Plus Haribo. It's going to be a good week 😁
More pop music on Pointless - I'll be disappointed if any of the #TOTP gang score less than 7 out of 7 here!
Decided not to go boarding as the wind was a bit annoying, so left all my gear in the car whereupon it immediately cleared up and was beautiful. Hey ho!
"I could have a bowel movement behind a sheet at a dinner party in the corner of the room, and nobody would know." Bloody hell, who talks like that?! And by the way: we'd know.
Ben Collins@bencollins.bsky.social · 23h agoOh my god the dietician who is telling everyone in the White House to only eat steak and sauerkraut doesn't wipe his ass.
The first image I remember giving me a lump in my throat was this tribute to Mel Blanc, whose voiceovers I'd grown up with. I saw a print of it at the Warner Brothers store, and just welled up.
Rick Schmitz@rickschmitz.bsky.social · 11h agoCan one image make you cry? It might.
Nobody is "celebrating" Rod Liddle's death, merely pointing out that he was a piece of shit; and that "don't speak ill of the dead" is a social nicety that shouldn't always apply.
Mic Wright@brokenbottleboy.bsky.social · 12h agoI was wondering why I’d got 19 clickthroughs from The Daily Telegraph…
I've got a day of outdoor activities planned, and a birthday BBQ tomorrow. So I can pretty much guarantee our run of dry weather is over 😂
This isn't a freak incident of someone slipping through the cracks in vetting, this is someone the Kemi Badenoch is actively supporting even though she's well aware of his history. Shocking.
Liam Hoare 🇺🇦@liamhoare.com · 13h agoIt doesn't say much for the Conservative Party that this is the quality of candidate who wants to stand for them now—and that they're willing to defend his selection.
This is the first night in ages I haven't cursed my lack of air conditioning.

bsky.app/profile/dave... Well duh! The disclaimer on the IPO was an utter giveaway. One born every minute!
The Associated Press@apnews.com · yesterdaySpaceX shares are down by half from their June peak as investors worry Musk may have oversold them on its future prospects.
Oooh there's some liquid heading roughly in my direction. Last time this happened, about a week ago, it passed a few miles to my north.
That should be a much bigger font. Jungle is massive.

I've got a morbid curiosity about the human condition, and pretty much nothing fazes me. But every now and then I see a story where I think, "no I don't want to click on that, it sounds too horrible"
Heather Burns@heatherburnstech.bsky.social · 2d agoI am still haunted by this longread from last week about a US fundamentalist couple who let their newborn die for lack of basic medical care and then filmed her coffin at her funeral, so they’d capture her resurrection for the socials. This is output and input. magazine.atavist.com/2026/pilands...
Tuesday. I have to physically go to work for a couple of hours to do payroll. I can barely remember how to get there.
Whoa! The #Mastermind trophy used to be presented by David Attenborough?! That's a star prize in itself.
For the first time in ages, I've been for an evening walk. Just me, alone with my thoughts. Straightened a few things out in my head, and felt relaxed for the first time in a while. Right, back to real life!
I miss Celia being on the telly. The news is depressing, we now all live in a blast furnace, and nobody's got any money. Get Celia back on the telly.
