During lockdown, back yonks ago, @theinsatiableones.bsky.social group on Facebook did a series of projects every Wednesday where fans contributed their efforts based on that week's theme. This was mine & @norock.bsky.social's offering for recreating @suedehq.bsky.social's #ComingUp album cover. 🤭
Three stuffed animals, a sloth, a ring tailed lemur, and a sportive lemur, are sat together on a striped fabric meant to resemble striped bed mattress ticking, recreating the cover for Suede's album Coming Up. There's a yellow background and the words Suede and 'Coming Up' are on the image.

This is such important information. Thanks for letting me know, BBC. 😒 #BarelyNews #NotBreakingNews

Looking forward to the now annual tradition of trying desperately to find a way to watch the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade while I cook #Thanksgiving dinner. 🫤 I wish there was a network in the UK that would carry it!

Okay here’s me at 14. Already just shy of 6 ft tall. That’s my dad and little brother in the photo.

I know this is very silly and immature but watching Strictly last night I had a little giggle fit. 🤭 🤭 🤭 Felt like I was in an episode of Southpark. 😅😂

Can’t argue that it is doing a great job of making a complete mockery of the government’s attempts to look fierce and strong. Reduced tension means they can’t justify their Ghorman massacre trigger that they so desperately want. Keep up the good work, Portland!
TikTok @ erinquinnh I think Portland is onto something with their weird ass, silly protest techniques — These macho military men look *so ridiculous* next to a Victorian woman having a tea party on the sidewalk as they stomp by with their big guns and shields. It ruins their visuals of authority, intimidation, and control. Be like Portland. BE SILLY.

Not the ‘world’s first’ either. The Open University and the BBC did a co-pro doing this years ago.

Text on page reads: BBC to screen first TV sperm race BBC Three is to broadcast what it says is the first televised sperm race later this month. The race, to be shown as part of the educational Lab Rats series, will pit the sperm of presenters Dr Mike Leahy and Zeron Gibson against each other. It will be filmed inside two tiny glass tubes by a microscope and relayed to a crowd watching a pub's big screen. BBC Three controller Stuart Murphy said it was being done for an audience that usually "balks at educational shows". It was a "creative risk" but Lab Rats tackled "difficult but important subjects", he added. Dr Leahy, a scientist, and Gibson, a comedian, say they will adopt different “training routines" to find out how different lifestyle choices affect reproductive abilities. They will then have their sperm measured and tested by fertility expert Allan Pacey from the University of Sheffield, who will predict which man is likely to win. The programme will be shown on 15 April at 2330 BST and is one of a four-part Lab Rats series. In other shows, Dr Leahy will go 60 hours without sleep to show the effects of sleep deprivation and the pair will ride a centrifugal machine to nine times the force of gravity.

That was a great little set… The highlight of the day was Brett recognising @norock.bsky.social and I walking down the street and calling us over for a chat. Magic!

What a swoontastic night with @suedehq.bsky.social tonight. An acoustic set that had most of the audience verklempt with the emotion of such beautiful versions of the songs and Brett’s voice ringing out across the room. A once in a lifetime experience for sure. 🥰💟🎶🎵

New one to add! My fave so far because Brett took the photo of us with my phone. This was after he went to give me a greeting peck on the cheek I wasn't expecting and somehow managed to get kissed on the eye or nose (not even sure, I was so flustered! haha).

Four chairs on stage. Speculation growing as to who will be here in Austin to a Mike Christie and Miranda Sawyer.
I’m guessing Justine and Bernard. 😉 😅

Feel free to contribute your own guesses. 😈

Not commenting on his death. But while watching the news coverage, I spotted this tent, which I think was the one he was talking from (??) and wtf is this blatant Nazi symbolism with the lightning bolt + a US flag design insert?

Love the excitement and squeeeeness of album launch day. The first of the shipments arrived bright and early this morning. 😸 Thanks #JacarandaRecords! Two beautiful new @suedehq.bsky.social CDs the first of, erm, a few. 😏
2 copies of the new Suede cd - one regular and one deluxe edition. The cover shows a man in silhouette against two huge rib cuts of beef that give the effect of wings behind him. 2 copies of the new Suede cd - one regular and one deluxe edition.
