Gashapon (or Gachapon) are vending machines found all over Japan that dispense capsules containing miniature toys and other items. There are thousands of different kinds. Here’s a thread of the best ones I saw on my recent trip. 🧵

The people who should be getting jailed are oil company execs, not some protesters sitting on the M25.
@bp_plc @Shell etc are fucking our planet for money

Woke up in the middle of the night so watched the Superbowl after all. Obvs the Eagles defence was something else but I think the biggest talking point was Kendrick's boot cut jeans and how a nearly forty year old man completely rocked them. Respect.

It's cheering that all the climate change denialists are going to have to deal with the fall out rather than their grand children. Can we start shooting fossil fuel execs yet?

A big picture of HRH (or HM - we wouldn't know. Or care) the king, accompanying a Viz letter reading as follows: King Charles's late mam was addressed using the posh term 'Ma'am'. So why isn't her son addressed as 'Da'ad', I wonder? It seems it's one rule for frosty-faced royal women and another for sausage-fingered, red-faced men, who, if the late Mike Yarwood was to be believed, go "uhhhnmmm...uhnmm" just before they speak.

4-panel comic by War and Peas. Panel 1: A woman approaches a tall tree in a grassy landscape, saying, "Oh wise and gentle giant. Tell me a story." The tree stands serenely under a bright blue sky. Panel 2: The tree replies, "Once, there was a species called humans who destroyed the planet and all living things." The scene remains peaceful but contrasts with the harsh story. Panel 3: The tree continues, "One day, a particular twat came up to a tree asking for a story." The woman looks up at the tree, her expression unchanging. Panel 4: The woman breaks the fourth wayll, thinking, "That last part seems unnecessary," as the tree stands motionless, towering above her in silence.

Catching up on films. I really liked Bird. It has lots of stuff I like: pylons, crows, Sleaford Mods, Fontaines DC, Burial and lots and lots of sky. 5/5

Put a new chain and gear set on my bike as I'd worn the old one out over thousands of miles. It's very flat round here and I can't quite believe how much I'd worn the lowest cog down.
