I am not joking when I say this. Spotify, Apple Music, and streaming in general is over. @alfsplaining.bsky.social is very, very good. You just don't know yet because all you listen to inferior ALF circulations. ALFsplaining has solved infinite personalised ALF podcasts.

Absolutely loving all these influencers saying "Get a pixie cut because they're low maintenance", when I look like this taking headphones off after a Teams call.

Me: *strolling in with suspicious vial of dark brown liquid* Interviewer: That's not an iced coffee, is it? I throw the vial on the floor, it is a magic potion that turns the interview panel into doves, who give me the job. In victory, I slurp the iced coffee that was hidden under my cape all along

My kid's life has been on hold for 5 years due to being on the waiting list for ADHD. This is a fucking disgrace.

My inherent politeness means I've just spent half an hour trapped in a toilet cubicle while someone has an argument on the phone about money she's owed. I was in there so long that I needed another wee.

Geraldine Moffat, who plays the White Triumph Sunbeam-driving 'Glenda' in Get Carter (the character dies locked in the boot as the car sinks in the Tyne) is the mother of the two men who created Grand Theft Auto. Decent pub quiz question there.

Have I just booked to see Project Hail Mary in 4DX in the middle of the day, an hour from home? It would appear that I have.

Happy birthday to Simon Mayo. I know it's his birthday because I remember him playing September and saying "I never noticed my birthday is in that song". I was on the way home from a job I left in 2013. Funny what sticks in your head!

The algorithm keeps advertising me this male sex toy that looks like a murder-drone designed by Feathers McGraw…

An ad for the ‘aloha man’. It is. Black, skittle shaped object that stands in a bedside table and is replete with many blue LEDs. A man and a woman’s hand touch in frame

New picture. Sort of a more abstract kind of thing.

Ink drawing with pencil colours on white paper. Stood centrally in the whiteness is an abstract shape that looks a bit like if someone took a length of black, thin wire and twisted round into odd patterns, the line crossing over and looping within itself. All this is happening, but one end of the 'wire' is stood straight on the implied ground. Some of the overlaps have created shapes that have been coloured turquoise. One uncoloured section features a small orange orb. Out of one side of the abstractness, the right hand side of a fairly abstract human head can be seen. The head has a flat top and no hair and is mainly dominated by an eye with a blue iris. The thick eyelash line extends quite far off the eye and leads to three curled up lashes.

It’s about time wheelchair users have legal priority to the designated spaces on buses and coaches instead of having to fight with entitled pricks with prams and buggies who don’t want to move. People choose to have children; we don’t choose to be disabled.

Petition: Review legal rights to wheelchair spaces on buses and coaches

Review legislation giving wheelchair users an enforceable right to designated spaces on buses and coaches, regardless of boarding order.

My ex mother in law was a school dinner lady. She told me that the breakfast club and school lunch were some kids only meals that day due to poverty or neglect. Imagine being so hate filled that you’d want to stop feeding kids. Congrats Sharron Davies, you’re a massive twat.

Has anyone else ever heard the phrase "Well, you know what thought did. He followed a dustcart because he thought it was a wedding". Is it something my nana made up? I've been using it for 50 years thinking it was a common phrase.

I went to see The Odyssey last weekend and the man sitting next to me filmed himself reacting to various scenes for his Instagram stories. After the cyclops scene he posted “cyclops summer!", and I lay in bed that night with "cyclops summer!" going around and around in my head.

Imagine what we could achieve as a species with the scientific knowledge to be gained by getting the huge internet cow, the Russian absolute unit, and Gary Barlow's massive son together in the same place. The physics would be absolutely fucked, gang.

This Finnish guy has been teaching himself Sumerian, and sent a cuneiform tablet to the British Museum to check his progress. They just emailed him that they've sent him something in the post. I'm now thrilled and excited for a total stranger! Clay tablet mail! www.reddit.com/r/Cuneiform/...
