A man & a dog. Come for pictures of Wilbur 🐶, stay for #Pittsburgh Sports, #mufc musings and general randomness. Ex-weatherdude. Completely preposterous, but absolutely human. Native of Manchester, now in the Democratic People's Republic of Bromsgrove.

Hello Bluesky people 😊 me and Wilbur are doing a sponsored dog walk next month in aid of MND Research, in memory of my Uncle.

If any of you would like to chip in, that would be wonderful and really appreciated - link here socialsync.app/fundraiser/c... thank you so much ❤️

I don't think anyone in his family cares for him. Along as he's around and doing things and policies that makes his family (and Republican party members and donors) billions of dollars, they don't care.

I can taste the panic these two felt doing their little stencilling. So casual with ‘own goal’ thinking they had all the space in the world. Look at the chasm between own and goal! Then sudden panic about whether there’s enough room for ‘Neville’. Eventually settling for ‘Nev’ after a crisis meeting

Best wishes to you, thinking of you and your family today. I hope the service is one of peace and comfort, but also an uplifting time as well. May she be fondly remembered by you all ♥️

This is just incredible

A tiny, tagged Monarch butterfly has flown from Southern Ontario in Canada to *Oklahoma* in a couple of weeks, as part of their migration

And they haven't got google maps open on their phones either, they just know where to go

Look at her go!

Streets are still closed off in front of the Portland ICE facility at 8:30pm. Protesters have gathered on a side street. Dance party in progress.

Gary Neville has picked the wrong kind of free speech. His ‘deluded’ rant and ‘most dangerous lapse into self-parody’ has prompted a Sky Sports sack call.

The MailOnline really does need to be careful about calling this a ”racist’ outburst, by the way...

Gary Neville has angered some middle-aged white men...but what do Sky Sports think of it all?

Jasmine is a bona fide superstar.

Which usually means she won’t win the whole thing.

Barry is right. The usual suspects have lost their collective minds over this, I don’t understand how you can listen to Neville and think he’s wrong.

Barry Glendenning @barryglendenning.bsky.social · 1d

Simon Jordan on TalkSport, unchallenged yet again.

As a Talksport employee, I am embarrassed by this rebuttal of what Neville said. This moron pontificates without question. It is bonkers.

And yeah, i'll probably be sacked. Fuck it.

It’s weird, I’m a Dave, but never when I use my first name with my surname, then I’ll always introduce myself as David.

Any newspaper this week reporting on the Tory conference should scare the crap out of you 😉😬🤣

Been saying for years that we need to bring back jazz sports music and ditch all pregame shows for short intros over synth bangers that make you want to run through a brick wall.

😂 I knew they were planned, but it wasn’t until you mentioned it I spotted them and was like “ooh! Bookmarks are here!” 😂😂😂

Jasmine still clearly the best while the others slipped away and Lesley came good, too. Aaron needs to regain his mojo next week #GBBO #BakeOff

This is Boksil. She is reaching levels of cozy previously unheard of. 12/10 a trailblazer (IG: with_bokdanji)

a small cream colored dog stares up at us. this is Boksil, swaddled in a grey robe, and tucked underneath a thick blanket on a bed. her little paws poke out of the robe's sleeves, and her toe beans are in full view. her tiny pink tongue mlems from her grinning mouth.

a higher angle of Boksil. a small yellow pillow rests beside her for scale, and her eyes are closed peacefully as she rests swaddled under a white blanket, looking very cozy.
