I don't know what the use-case is meant to be for 100-person chat groups on here. If I want to discuss something with lots of people, why not do it publicly? If I want to chat with friends then I *guess* we could do it on here in private but there are better options
This is great stuff, Will, and very well argued. Now do, "Give a man a fire and he's warm for a day, but set fire to him and he's warm for the rest of his life." GUYS, THE MAN WILL JUST DIE. IT'S REALLY TERRIBLE ADVICE!
Will Stancil@whstancil.bsky.social · 9h agoSince people are still relentlessly abusing me over this, here’s why the so-called “boots theory” doesn’t make any sense. First, what is it? Some people have suggested I haven’t done the background reading, but it’s not a deep idea. It’s from a passage that’s four sentences long.
Looking at shoes on Amazon and, "10.5 UK is your recommended size based on millions of customer orders." Guys, I don't think that is how it works.
Grimmy played something by Asha Puthli on his show this morning which has sent me down a rabbit hole. open.spotify.com/album/0HBTcZ...

Oh mate. If the bar was any lower you would need to go down some steps to jump over it

Why on earth is Kemi Badenoch so determined to push through an ex(?) neo-nazi as a Tory candidate? Are they just desperate for talent or does she think this might win back the Tory voters who have gone to Restore/Reform?
I don’t know about this, I mean, if you are going to erect a sheet fort and orgasm in the corner of a dining room, while dropping some friends at the pool, then I’m going to have questions, worst Harry Met Sally fan art ever if you ask me.
This is the most 'Sir, this is a Wendy's' thing you will read all week
Ben Collins@bencollins.bsky.social · yesterdayOh my god the dietician who is telling everyone in the White House to only eat steak and sauerkraut doesn't wipe his ass.
Facebook ads seem to have got a bit more aggressive lately
0. I don't particularly like oysters but would eat them and I am yet to try snails, but would.
Monica@softtail65.bsky.social · 2d agoThere are 12 that I absolutely won't eat. 🤷♀️ What about you? 🤔
Rod Liddle was very much like Marmite, in that you wouldn’t want him on your television screen, radio, or newspaper.
Some lovely words over on X, The Everything App™ from Cat Bin Lady
Justin Lewis@whenisbirths.bsky.social · 2d agoI'm hearing over my earphones that Jeff from Peep Show has just filed 800 words.
Prepping the tribute reel now. Just waiting to hear back from Skeletor, Servelan, The Joker and Rowling.
Liddle once RTd one of my jokes on Twitter and I had a real dark night of the soul about it
RIP. They'll all be assaulting their pregnant girlfriends at the great gig in the sky tonight
The National@scotnational.bsky.social · 2d agoBREAKING: Sunday Times and Sun columnist Rod Liddle has died aged 66 after a short illness
Not the point here but calling hotdogs 'hots' feels like an unholy mashup of Steamed Hams and that 'dust my wets' meme

This is a fabulous thread on AI, by the man who observed and then coined the phrase "enshittification."
By Cory Doctorow (GPG 0xBF3D9110957E5F4C)@doctorow.pluralistic.net · 3d agoThe greatest magic trick of them all is *lying*. The reason you can't figure out that coin vanish even after the conjurer performs it three times in a row is that they *didn't* do the same trick three times in a row! 1/

Ah yes, as seen in the iconic Man With Blue Trousers 2: Tokyo Drift

The Ronnie Scott's street party is great. Summer Pearl just did a very creditable jazz cover of Dead Prez's Hip Hop
