Elon Musk, "These lovely small towns in England, Scotland and Ireland, they've been living their lives quietly. They're like hobbits"

"And so one day, 1,000 people show up in your village of 500 and start raping the kids"

"This has now happened, God knows how many times in Britain"

Here in Atlanta yesterday, more than 2,000 people waited in their cars—one woman for 14 hours—for a box of food. The giveaway ended early; there wasn't enough to go around.

Multiply this scene by countless others across the country, and you get a sense of how crushing the desperation is right now.

Kids chose potato SO MUCH around here, and when they do they are so fucking delighted about it. I think they get to a point in the night when they are bored of haribo

thinking about potato house this halloween

a post showing a bowl of candy with a single potato in the center with the text:

Tonight kids chose potato more than 25 times, each time triumphantly proclaiming to friends and family, "I GOT A POTATO!"
One kid shouted, "A potato, just like last year!" and another group said, "Oh, youre the potato house? You're legends!"

This has become an unexpected and joyful tradition. Kids are given the free choice and over and over again they choose Potato. My friends, every day you are given a choice. I encourage you: choose potato

I would sooner never write again than use an AI to beat writer's block. I don't care what anyone says, even my ADHD brain.

Jill Murray @jillmurray.bsky.social · 7d

People who aren’t writers think writer’s block is at least as big and real a problem as I thought quicksand would be, as a child.

AI can help authors beat writer’s block, says Bloomsbury chief

Publisher last week reported jump in revenue in academic and professional arm thanks to AI licensing deal

Parental scarelore has probably saved as many lives as it's claimed Stay Belows take. Children given a healthy terror of pools and rivers not through fear of flow and depth, but the seizing of hands and ankles from under the surface. – Joanna Vickers #VOH #FolkloreSunday

I'm drinking really nice apple and rosehip tea, listening to Chelsea Carmichael, tucked under a heated blanket writing about leaf litter from my @writerscentre.bsky.social nature writing course, life is good.

Last time I saw Les Savy Fav live was maybe 14 years ago and the singer told me I was hot. This time I'll be going in my wheelchair with fake blood pouring from my mouth and 4 extra legs attached because its Halloween. He'd better still be into me

NOBODY SHOULD BUY ANOTHER PERSON CLOTHES. YOU WOULDN’T BUY THEM SKIN OR HAIR - HOW IS THIS DIFFERENT? THE ONLY NORMAL WAYS TO ACQUIRE CLOTHES:

- STOLEN FROM CLOAKROOM
- LONG HAIR TO LOOK LIKE CLOTHES
- BORN IN THEM (RARE)
- GIVEN SPARES FROM LOST PROPERTY AFTER SOILING YOURSELF AT WORK

Where are the "Israel breaks ceasefire again" headlines?

Why don't the BBC, Guardian etc, have this image on their front pages?

"18 members of the Abu Dalal family — mostly women and children — were killed after Israel bombed their home in the Nuseirat refugee camp in central Gaza last night."

We think blanket, unjustified bans on trans participation in grassroots sport are unlawful.

So we're going to bat for trans people in amateur cricket 🏏

Bella needs to tread carefully. Once, I was Bella. I was in the wrong. But I accidentally birthed a monster when he became the most fashionable person in the world (on his own steam, I can't take credit), and I became a moustache widow. Don't do it, Bella.

Should my boyfriend wear the clothes I buy for him?

Bella says choosing outfits for Axel is her way of showing she cares. He wants to dress as he pleases and wonders if she’s trying to change him. You decide who the fashion victim is
