The first time I saw Diarrhoea Man, I knew I was witnessing a moment of cultural significance.

The real enemy is the bags of piss you've got your feet in.
Big lad just paddled past in a kayak, wearing a white t-shirt and black life vest; at first I thought he was a community policeman.

I just abandoned a post halls Way through because my phone’s predictive text was being ridiculous and it kept highlighting the wrong words and, hang on, ‘halls Way’? What the fuck is that? What’s that capital W doing there? Fucking fuck
Dear phone: Please do not put a capital K on ‘kip’ unless it is followed by ‘Winger’. Thank you.

Perhaps the most awesome feature of this map is that the area indicated as Côte d’Ivoire is: – on the wrong side of the continent – completely unrelated to any actual country – LANDLOCKED

Apparently today I'm v cross with @lewisgoodall.com who is not doing journalism but click bait science misunderstanding and doubling down despite evidence. As a nurse in covid palliative, a research nurse who coordinated vaccine studies, partner of a teacher and mum of kid with asthma, he's wrong
British persons: a friend would like to get a short run of t-shirts printed, maybe 50. He’s looking at Teemill. Does anyone have any experience of them? Any other recommendations?

Hill Street Blues theme on the radio. There used to be an old bloke in my neighbourhood who drove around in his knackered green Ford Orion, blasting music from the original factory stereo. Hill Street Blues was one of his favourites.
Shit cunts like Infantino, Bezos, Miller and Tate are giving bald men a bad name. Shout out to all the bald men who aren’t shit cunts!
Apologies for late replies, I got a puncture.
It’s generally acknowledged that authors shouldn’t respond to negative reviews but I have to say @guillermostitch.bsky.social and publisher @saggingmeniscus.bsky.social are going about It methodically, reasonably and successfully.
Alternating sun and cloud, light breeze, piston engined aeroplane grumble
Why does that pet insurance ad on the telly have Shimmy Shimmy Ya as its soundtrack? It doesn’t seem to fit at all. Have I missed something?
Consecutive (yet completely unrelated) Quatermass posts on my timeline. Am I in a bubble? Maybe. Am I following the right people? Maybe.
I'm sure I'm not the first to say it, but imagine this on a Ryanair to Magaluf.
Hemant Mehta@friendlyatheist.com · last wk.Evangelist Whitney Lynn says she preaches on planes because she loves “a captive audience.” She's not alone. It's becoming a trend. If spreading your message requires listeners who can't escape, maybe it's not as compelling as you think. www.friendlyatheist.com/p/christian-...
Do any of you have access to any kind of newspaper archive subscription and would be willing to help me find an article from the Huddersfield Examiner from 1923? All help and reposts greatly appreciated with this.
