When I was 15 my boyfriend at the time said when we were cuddling, "I wish we could lie here forever". I am now 43 and I regularly think, god we would still be lying there now how boring.

Liar. Small boat crossings peaked under Johnson in 2022 reaching 46,000 in 2022. In current year they are 18,565 and falling. Also prior to Boris Johnson's Brexit there were none.
It's a disaster, and it can all be traced to
Labour ideology. Burnham has no mandate
from the people. He has no real ideas, and
no plan,

Let me tell you a story about how top-end menswear retail transformed over the last hundred years. 🧵
Fiorinamarietta on Threads writes: "The death of department stores as an EXPERIENCE needs to be studied. You used to be able to buy a dress, have lunch, get your hair done, smell every perfume in existence and leave carrying beautifully wrapped boxes. Shopping used to be an event."

When I was about 10 years old I thought I would be able to walk on water if I put arm bands round my ankles and jumped in. Turned upside down in the pool with my feet poking out. Dad had to jump in and save me.

Well, happy 29th anniversary to the greatest ‘reverse ferret’ ever issued by a media outlet

So much love for the Armando Iannucci Shows. Odd how everyone's so much younger 25 years ago. Great writing, by him of course, and by @andyrileyish.bsky.social and Kevin Cecil. The whole thing's a muster station for the socially awkward, the imposter syndromers. YES. www.channel4.com/programmes/t...

Many years ago I thought mixing cream into a setting strawberry jelly would make a nice creamy desert for the then toddlers. And meat-baby was born. For the same toddlers 17th birthday, they’ve asked that I make another one…
A strawberry jelly with curdled cream set into it in the shape of a happy sloth. The curdled mixture has set to look just like shiny meat.

For at least twenty years, in every hotel I've stayed in, if there's a Bible I've signed it 'Cheers for believing, all the best, Jesus'. As a full-time touring musician it's well past the thousand mark by now.

As it’s 17 July, it must be... yes, of course: 46th anniversary of Texan millionaire Jack Grimm’s first expedition to discover the location of the wreck of the Titanic. He did not succeed, but then one of the methods he tried was a monkey trained to point at a map 🧵

no matter your politics it’s disrespectful to joke about someone’s death. don’t say lindsey graham died from smoking a cigar because the cigar exploded in his face and his pants and socks and underwear flew off and then he dropped the cigar on his penis which also exploded. don’t say stuff like that

I’m not saying the debate in the U.K. has moved to the right, but Ed Miliband is basically seen as Pol Pot for aiming for a climate target first agreed to by…I think Theresa May’s government? Definitely Johnson’s. And this chat is going on during the middle of a record-breaking heatwave
