Whenever I prune things with secateurs, I imagine I'm a 1960s gangster cutting off fingers.

This may turn out to be one of the most photographed cars on the Internet, like the Roupell Street Citroens, but I don’t think I’ve seen it before. Whoever owns it and presumably daily drives it in Clerkenwell, you, madam or sir, are a hero #weirdcarBS #spotted

What’s your sign?
A national speed limit sign next to a massive tree in the middle of a field with a bike leaning against it - you couldn’t do 6mph there let alone 60

What Will Russia's Military Look Like After the Ukraine War?
The last four years have seen Russia suffer equipment and manpower losses in Ukraine that far exceed those of any other major military power in a conventional.

Zelenskyy will be remembered as one of the great political manoeuvrers. He is head and shoulders above most contemporary politicians in terms of his ability to put Ukraine at the heart of policy decisions, and I’m here for it.

One of the reasons that present day right wing politics is so intolerable is that everyone involved in producing, editing and publishing this take knows that it's bullshit, and if circumstances demanded they would all argue precisely the opposite way without blinking an eye.

President Trump: Would you go to Moscow? President Zelenskyy: It's difficult. There are a lot of Ukrainian drones there. It's dangerous.

Rach's new-to-us Fiat 500C has an ancient TomTom installation which I'm trying to resurrect. After a few hours of playing about with different cables I've got it talking to the PC and I was amused to see its name. Never change, Fiat, never change 😂

Love this. NHS following some of the smarter PMI firms who’ve done this for a while eg Vitality. Obesity costs NHS £500 per person per year, so if they spend £50 per person per year to reduce it by £100 they’re quids in

When walking anywhere on my own, I make all other pedestrians competitors in a race and create imaginary commentary in the style of Murray Walker. In 23 years, I've never lost a race. Even when someone reaches a destination before me a stewards enquiry always disqualfies them.

SpaceX board member Antonio Gracias's firm Valor holds $20.2B in equipment leases with SpaceX at an implied ~22.6% rate, basically credit-card debt rates, and >5x the company's ordinary equipment financing rate of 4.4%. No fairness opinion, no competing bids, no independent committee. Sweet. /5

Not only is this the (somewhat scaled down) plot of the book Enders Game, it’s another example of the Ukrainians out-thinking everyone else. “We got real war in GTAV before GTAVI” etc

In advertising we used to call that the “duck”. Where you’d make a good ad but stick a duck in it. So the client would be like “yeah we love everything else but can you take the duck out, not sure re the duck?” And you’d go “oh ok thats a shame but if you’re sure, we can make it work with no duck”
