For 30 years I thought I didn't like vegetables. It turned out I just don't like stinky mush.

Sadly I have now discovered that eating sprouts causes the sort of flatulence that shakes roof tiles loose.

You live and learn.

This anecdote clears it up.

"Terry whomst, at a book signing, asked my name, and being a young egg, I told him, adding “for now” so he leaned in, asked what it *will* be, and signed my copy of Guards Guards ambiguously enough that it can be read either way.
He was the first human to know [my name]"

If he hadn't gone bald he would have a side parting and a little moustache.

I think he practices looking like Mussolini in the mirror.

Are you telling people of colour that they are wrong? What do you hope to gain from that?

We could have had those water companies nationalised by now. Sadly The Guardian chose to campaign against that. You must all be very proud.

Sadly it doesn't fit a European standard toilet roll so I have to import pallets of Japanese paper. Sometimes it takes 2 months to arrive which can be inconvenient.

It is literally a political slogan you dishonest stenographers.

I've been quiet for a while. It's been due to a number of factors, the most prominent of which is poor health.

I need surgery, and I'm stuck in limbo. Please help.

This guy? Prison ship of Theseus more like.

A naked Theseus leads a naked boy away while another naked boy hugs his foot. A crowd looks on in confusion.

Oh my gurd! That's the Kemp's music!

(I know nobody knows who they are but I've seen this little kids fight and they scare me.)

Hull FC's young rugby players Lloyd and Callum Kemp. They are identical twins.

Why is that a good temperature for you?

The government is complicit. Why are you defending them? Do you support the genocide?

2

Count Draczilla @iamgodzilla.bsky.social · 3d

Wouldn't you describe complicity in a genocide as far-right? That seems like a far-right thing to do. Helping exterminate people based on race to satisfy a right wing ethnostate? I'd say that was in the vicinity of the far-right.

I'm having a hard time arguing with people in the Green Party about the Green Women's Declaration.

Does anyone have an article on who these people are and why they aren't just "concerned women wanting dialogue"?

Owls have a hoot that means "I'm sick of your shit."

I often hear our local owl pair call to each other when they hunt. I was outside and one was in a tree above me.

Where are you?

Silence

Where are you?

Silence

Where are you?

Then from the same tree:
I'M RIGHT FUCKING HERE! OH MY GOD!

Yep. Just bought 6 months worth. The vegan shit is a right rip off. I feel quite taken advantage of.

I dunno who it even is. Are they like the Chairman or something?

When Corbyn wins power I'm going to build BritNet the British National Social Media Corporation. It will be basic but functional with BritNet Commissars to act as moderators.
