Marmaduke, six, is reported to have been the subject of near constant vocal stimming by Ellie Mulligan, 32. In response, Marmaduke concealed a microphone within his floofy orange trousers, and he is now rich beyond his wildest dreams.

I keep saying this but I remember teenage girls warning each other about him back in the Livejournal days. How has he not faced any consequences yet?

My god the amount of time I waste trying to figure out if my new followers are human. Apologies to every handsome middle aged retired surgeon with a beard who loves his grandkids and God who I have ever blocked.

It's been this way in Scotland for years now and it's an absolute joke. Fuck workers, I guess.

Taking away eligibility for the Covid vaccine from almost anyone under 75, including carers, healthcare workers and most clinically vulnerable people, is a national scandal.

Reform UK’s Councillor Dave Poole has put out this bizarre graphic littered with spelling errors.

Our favourite part is where it says Reform UK keeps being called the ‘fat right’.

Obsessed with how you can take any picture of Goblin Cat contorting herself (she does snorty, open-mouth purring) and get an album cover.

In case this escapes containment I am autistic and I know you can't catch it. I'm just curious.

Do you think if the government announced a vaccine for autism the antivaxxers would take it or would they find a new scapegoat syndrome?

I also just hate phone keyboards. My hands are too small for swipe text and I have to type with my phone in two hands. The ergonomics of smart phones continue to be fucking awful. I don't know how we let ourselves be convinced that this is the ideal way to interact digitally.

I don't mind having my French corrected as I'm learning.

I do resent having my English corrected, especially when the "corrections" are actually to Scots grammar, British English, or a simple typo from a bad health day. Oh, to be perfect and disability-free.

Benjamin Dreyer @bcdreyer.social · 4d

Correcting strangers’ grammar uninvited is an act of hostility, so either jubilantly own that or don’t do it.
