if you believe in yourself you can work within the existing constraints imposed upon you to, in some cases, accomplish a subset of your dreams www.qwantz.com/index.php?co...

Off panel: If you believe in yourself, you can do anything!
T-Rex: ...I can?

T-Rex: I CAN?!?

T-Rex: Okay Dromiceiomimus, I believe in myself, utterly and completely, and what I want to do with that belief is get boats for hands so I can walk around and say "wow, these boats sure are handy".
T-Rex: HAND-y, Dromiceiomimus.
Dromiceiomimus: I got it, yeah. I guess we COULD make some boat-shaped gloves that -
T-Rex: NO! They have to be REAL.

Utahraptor: You want to cut off your hands and replace them with ACTUAL full-sized boats?
T-Rex: I believe in myself!

T-Rex: BUT: they still have to work as hands too. They must be actual boats that are also flesh and allow me sensation.
Utahraptor: How about this: if you believe in yourself, you can do SOME things, not all things. Perhaps not even MOST things.

Off panel: But you can do approximately as many things - and perhaps even slightly more - than you could if you DIDN'T believe in yourself.
T-Rex: Okay you know what that's actually WAY more reasonable

Condemnation is pure hot air if in the next breath you’re telling everyone you’re doing your best to give the fascists what they want, just without the masks

In fact, these are scenes we have not seen on British streets. Immigration needs to be deal with, I will be the first to say that and we are dealing with it. The boat crossings have been halved since six years ago, net migration is down massively.

Looks like a Hollywood studio made a Garfield movie in the 1990s, inexplicably decided to try (badly) to make their animatronic puppet look like an actual cat, and had the plot centre around Jon's ailing but rebellious mother.

Ad from between Facebook reels. Caption: "RoboPets - Robotic Interactive Companion Pets - UK and EU".

An elderly lady in a care home is sat up in an adjustable bed, with a ginger robot cat on her lap, sporting chunky fluffy cartoonish features that make it resemble a nasty child's toy that will run for about an hour at best on 6 AA batteries.

"you don't know the completely legitimate legal arguments we're going to use, they go to another school"

On Friday, it was announced City had been found guilty of the vast majority of the 115 charges brought against them and Al Mubarak has responded with a letter to fans on the club's website.

"Following Friday's media reporting, many of you will have spent your evening answering questions and responding to messages from friends, family and colleagues. So have I," Al Mubarak said.

"Here's what I said to my family: The Premier League process still has a long way to run, and our confidence and intent in proving the club's innocence is just as strong as when this began.

"There are so many things that I would like to be able to share with you to help you understand why we feel so confident in our position.

"But the strict confidentiality of the legal process and our determination to respect it means I cannot do that at the moment. Even this letter underwent several legal checks to make sure it complies."

I grew up in Little Rock, a place named as such because it's right next to a relatively small mountain. I currently live next to The Ozark Mountains, named as such because they are near (aux) Arkansas (aux Ark --> Ozark). Place Names are often just very practical.

The other day I used an otherwise empty women’s restroom at the movie theater and as I sat down a male employee opened the door very loudly and yelled “BATHROOM CHECK”. He was just trying to clean. But for the first time in many years I panicked and got scared. It should not be like this.

Just found this really tiny portal in a tree in Blackborough Woods near Cullompton

Some tiny mushrooms we spotted in the knot of a tree.

Turns out the tiny mushrooms frame a gravelled path for microhobbits to journey into the tree.

The RNLI rescued Luftwaffe pilots in WW2 because the organisation is there to 'save life at sea' - it's something to be immensely proud of. But as I've said many times before Farage and Co don't seem to have pride in Britain and its institutions beyond flags and crap Enoch Powell said 60 years ago.

Jim Ratcliffe. A man so ‘patriotic’ he pushed for Brexit, then jumped ship to Monaco as a tax exile. Loves the prestige & benefits of his British knighthood, of owning a British club, and of UK tax payer money being pumped into his companies. Just not paying into the country that provides these.

You can't be apolitical and claim you're making a "safe space for everyone" because by being apolitical you're explicitly saying you're creating a safe space as much for the bad guys as the oppressed. "Nobody should have to examine themselves buy my CD and tour tshirt." This really boils my piss.

How do the crossword sticklers feel about today's minute cryptic? [*trying not to spoiler it*] It's nearly a certain type of clue but not quite fully the type of clue. I'm guessing most are basically fine with it, but some purists may be rankled. On a scale of 1 to Ximenes, how annoyed should I be?
