Nice cut-off on emal text @schehera.bsky.social
A screenshot from an email inbox, the email is from the Queensland Symphony Orchestra, it says 'Venture to ancient Arabia with Schehera...' (the full word should be 'Scheherazade')

It's the Padme/Anakin meme, but the poster replied to has effectively supplied the text, so it is blank.

"Brenda from Bristol" (she was talking about elections, not hurricanes, but I imagine the sentiment is the same)

Some people want to go back in time to kill Hitler, I want to go back in time to kill the person who invented this packaging:

That Trump in a food cart story has to be the dumbest thing I've read.
The Homer//Bart Simpson 'so far' meme image, but it is blank.  It is assumed the reader is savvy enough to understand the implied meaning.

59 people read this review and thought the same as I did, which is "if you don't say WHY the description is wrong, your review is utterly pointless".
A product review - it is 1 star out of five, and the review text says "This product is not as described.  The description online is not just misleading, it is incorrect", however it does not say HOW the description is incorrect.  8 people have marked the review as 'helpful', 59 have marked it as 'unhelpful'.

Was thinking about getting some Urea cream for my heels (ignore the 'ewww! wee!' thoughts, it actually works) and can't get over this before/after image from Amazon where the two images are, quite obviously, from two completely different people.

Astonishing to me that there's no public EV charging between Melbourne and Ballarat on the M8. Plenty when you get to Ballarat, plenty in Melbourne (obviously) but nothing on the M8 itself despite there being several servos on the route. There are a couple off the motorway but hardly convenient.

Hi Americans, if you could do something begore the midterms it'd be appreciated. Not sure the world can endure six more months of this.
Unpopular and badly out of touch, the president lies and exaggerates about the state of the war, seemingly changing his position every hour on just what will happen next. Faced with the predictable blockade of fuel supplies moving through the strait of Hormuz, Trump claimed it was not a problem and suggested renaming the strategic waterway after himself.

In these days of AI images, some of which are getting scarily realistic, I'm somehow reassured by seeing a low-effort Photoshop job.

Picking what I thought would be the quickest cue option in the supermarket then finding the guy with what I thought was a full basket just had a single 12-pack of water bottles meanwhile the young couple I chose to stand behind don't have a shopping basket, they have a TARDIS.

Either this is AI or the person who posed the product for photography didn't think it through.
A picture of a storage caddy with a lid.  There are bottles in the caddy that are far taller than the lid, which is askew, and it's very clear the lid can never even approximately fit the base.
