I took a picture of a hippo yawning, I was reminded of a video recently doing the rounds on Bluesky and other popular social media sites…

Depends on the comedian, for some their general way of walking the stage adds to the humour IMO But you are right the clubs are always best, just alas I can’t always get to them

I always knew it was nonsense, but I was inspired by @aiannucci.bsky.social and his ilk and also proud to have, temporarily beaten my writers block. But now that fucking idiot in America has gone and made it real The dark recesses of my mind have started to come true; bad times 8/8

… The crowd are upset and getting restless and I can't blame them, they have come here to see a man hanged for his crimes but instead have been the witness to a horrible murder.” 7/8

“I can't understand what is happening here, the man is simply trying to do his job and he has been killed for it, I worry this will act as a deterrent to other would-be executioners… 6/8

After trying to build up the tension I finally started the slow walk to the gallows, treating it like a boxer’s ring walk. And then had an unseen sniper take out the hangman My concerns over subtlety were then swept aside as I decided on using a sledge hammer with the presenter saying: 5/8

Highlights from the hangman’s previous executions An interview with the killer and a look back at his life and the lives of those he killed. I decided that making their guilt questionable might have been too on the nose so I ensured he admitted it 4/8

This sent the little grey cells spinning away and within an hour I’d managed to write a 10 page script based on the imaginary channel Sky Justice and their weekly televised hanging. It had a phone in vote for the condemned’s last meal An interview with the hangman 3/8

The inspiration came from the Murdoch press and their obsession with leaving the EU. I remember a column written around the time of the Soham murders, probably by Littlejohn or similar level twat, decrying the inability to sentence Ian Huntley to death and stating it was the EU’s fault 2/8

For most of my adult life I have had quite horrific writers block; in the last 30 or so years the only thing I’ve ever managed to write beyond a couple of paragraphs was a script that a few years after writing I submitted to the BBC writers room (sadly nothing came of it) 1/8

I’m only amateur conspiracy theorist, but I must say arresting Andy and searching his home with flawed warrants is some sublime work to make it look the government tried to do the right thing whilst making sure he gets away scott free. Trump might try the same thing

@soozuk.bsky.social Sooz, sorry I appreciate the preference to turn off replies but I couldn’t let the toast tip go by without suggesting this: Squish a circle in the bread and then crack an egg into said circle, air fry for the same time Kind regards A culinary reply guy

Young Lad, in about 40 years: “Grandad, who has scored the most goals for England” G: “it’s a man called Harry Kane” YL: “did you ever see him play? Was he amazing” G: “yeah but i spent most of the time complaining he’d dropped into midfield or taking the piss out of the way he talked” YL: “twat”

Agreed, Foden is next; we’ve already had Dele Alli’s downfall, Wilshere too Too many young players’ careers ending early There’s probably a pattern but I doubt anyone is looking to find it

Not quite sure what brought it to mind, but I was thinking about the time my parents bought this phone from a relative (as did many members of the wider family) after he managed to get hold of a few of them I think this type of thing no longer happens, lorry doors must be much more secure

The self scan machines at Morrisons have a new AI that claims the shopper has not scanned an item Twice today I was, basically, accused of theft by a robot who couldn’t tell the last item scanned is the same as whats on it little video Guess they want people to return to the cashiers
