The House Of Splain@thehouseofsplain.bsky.social · 5h agoThinking of getting into the hauntology game for Halloween.
A thread trying to remember which one was World Of Crap and which one was BiscuitAhoy is quite nostalgic and refreshing, until you remember how they ended up.
James C@iguandonjim.bsky.social · 21h agoWeetman skull-measuring incident has reminded me of people who used to "be a thing" on twitter. It's inspired me to do an occasional thread. Feel free to chip in with suggestions/lore/questions.
well done lads, it's 2026 & you've managed to allow the fucking Sun to position itself as slightly less hostile to people who support LGBT+ rights than The Big Supposedly Gay Dancing Show
Andrew Clifford@tscnewschannel.bsky.social · 21h ago12 October 2026: The Sun leads on a row over the BBC and Strictly Come Dancing after a contestant’s pro-trans T-shirt slogan was reportedly edited out of coverage, sparking accusations of censorship. #TomorrowsPapersToday

Only 70% of the Uk population know for sure that Vampires & Werewolves don’t exist. Reform seems to have a 30% ceiling for votes. I think the maths speaks for itself. 🤣

There's a woman in this year's #BBUK who claimed to be a witch and numerous housemates expressed genuine, serious, unironic fear that she was going to cast evil magic spells on them. And that's why I still bloody love Big Brother.

If three smashing bands (plus the lovable gurrier that is Hacker T Dog) for the price of a Peroni isn't tempting enough, I'll be there too, indulging in a little bit of light heckling. Or hockling. 😀

And now the best part: Bot traffic from the #Yandex network has plunged to near zero following the strike on its Vladimir data center. Bot traffic includes automated requests from search crawlers, scrapers and other online services. Twitter must be a ghost town by now.
Alina Pereverzieva 🇺🇦@perevaa.bsky.social · yesterdayAll three Yandex AI supercomputers are reportedly offline: Galushkin in Vladimir, Chervonenkis and Lyapunov in Sasovo, whose data center shut down after the Oct 8 strike. Yandex Cloud outages also threaten thousands of Russian firms relying on it for websites, databases and payments 👏

This is something I was thinking about wrt Nick Robinson’s hectoring of Polanski. Polling has shifted so drastically on Israel in the US in three years that if the next Dem Presidential candidate is even pro-Israel, they will be the last. The UK is on a similar trajectory, and will follow the US.
Gareth Dennis@garethdennis.uk · yesterdayWe will look back in the future on Israel's domestic political and media allies in the same way we look back on those sycophantic supporters of Rhodesia and Apartheid South Africa today: as creeps, losers and deniers. It's only a matter of time.
