In love with this evocative photo of outside the Atlantic House Bar in Provincetown, 1993.

The flirty, babbling chatter. The muted beats of the club. The smell of the heat of a warm summer's night. That little guy in the black vest with his cute porn star tache 💕

Poor Karoline 😬

More stretches than an Olympic athlete.
The White House is really going with "Trump said ice land not Iceland." Lordy.

Rest in peace Patsy, an absolute icon.

Loved Erica’s interactions with Lizzie (Sheila Florence).

Very well 💕
RIP Patsy, Thank you for all the fun you brought into my life when I most needed it xx

Danish MEP Anders Vistisen, stood up in the European Parliament today and made himself extremely clear. He began his speech by saying: "Let me put this in words you might understand: Mr President...f*** off."

F***ing nerve of this A**hole of a #PresidentFelon
Article 5 has been invoked ONCE by NATO, that was following the 9-11 attacks on the US & ALL 19 members responded & supported the war in Afghanistan

Most of those had fatalities. Not only has NATO been there for the US, our people DIED for the US

What better way for Trump to remain as president indefinitely than to create a conflict with Europe... 🤔

I’m ridiculously pleased to have received a statement from PLR. I’ve earned £33.61 from loans of print and ebooks from UK libraries.

I’m nine again and have just found 50p down the back of the sofa.

Withdraw Her Name Is Alice from your local library and gift me 12p and some annual childish joy ❤️

In honour of Dolly Parton’s birthday, here she is handing out safer sex advice in the 1980s.
Watching her laugh somehow makes you feel everything is going to be ok.

Happy 80th birthday to the icon that is #DollyParton. One of, if not the most, genuinely caring and kind people on the planet.

Noem doesn't want us to mention the name of the dude who shot a woman in the head as she tried to escape from him.

His name is Jonathan Ross.

Her name was Renee Good, she was a wife and mother, and they shamelessly continue to lie about her.

They say the most stressful things in life involve significant losses or major life changes, I'm going to add one to that... clipping your cats claws.

It has everything: anticipation, tension, the battle of wills, the threat of physical injury (to the human) then finally acceptance and relief 😂

If we hadn't been complicit on Palestine; if we hadn't appeased Trump on Venezuela, might the Global Majority have stood alongside Europe, with all of us stronger, on Greenland?
