Captain Janeway holds her head in her hand as if stressed and asks Seven of Nine, "Is it men again?". Seven replies, "It would appear so". Janeway sighs.

Excellent photo placement from @theguardian.com here.

A screenshot from an article on The Guardian website, saying: "Trump previously claimed that the new structure would not "interfere with the current building", according to the Washington Post. "It'll be near it but not touching it - and pays total respect to the existing building, which I'm the biggest fan of" Trump said during an executive order signing in July, according to the Post. "It's my favorite. It's my favorite place. I love it." Followed by a photograph with the caption, "Work begins on the demolition of a part of the East Wing Washington DC, before construction of a new ballroom. Photograph: Evan Vucci/AP"

I know we don't judge people by appearances but I can't be the only one who would much rather stick with the Beast than the pretty prince he turns back into 😏🔥

I feel seen.

A 4 panel comic strip from Fowl Language Comics by Brian Gordon. In Panel 1, an anxious-looking duck stands by a window at sunrise thinking, "Oh my God, I have so much to do, I don't even know where to start!". In Panels 2 and 3 the duck doesn't move but time passes outside the window. In the final panel it is nighttime and the duck still hasn't moved, still looks anxious, and thinks, "Well, I gave it my best shot."

So excited to have finally arrived in Vienna for our @choiroftheearth.com trip to perform Haydn's Missa in Angustiis at Esterházy Palace this Thursday! Team COTE is powered by caffeine so it seems appropriate that my first task is to try my first Wiener Melange. Prost!

My first #The30PlusClub night at #CHSq #Belfast - even got my customary cider and bucket hat (well, @pulsarsi.bsky.social's hat anyway). Reliving my youth and sure Whigfield will be on later! Still remember all the moves to Saturday Night 😂 Great accessibility provision btw! ♿🙌🏻🪩🍻🎶

I have never felt more seen than by this subtitler 🥲

A BBC reporter at Glastonbury Festival interviews an older woman who attended the first Glastonbury Festival and four young women. The subtitles read "They name young people musicians".

First proper holiday with @pulsarsi.bsky.social since before Covid, in that there London. We saw @totoroshow.bsky.social last night and just got hammered at a bottomless brunch at Piano Works, so having a great time! 😁

The best fun you can have sober with your clothes on (they insist on both). Seriously, the lads here are brilliant - they know exactly how to safely adjust the experience for me in my scooter while not patronising me or treating me differently. Great craic and definitely worth having a go! 💥🪓🪓🪓
