This is an intimidating olive.
An absolutely huge green olive in small brown dish. I'm trying to poke a stick into it, showing my finger in relation to how large the olive is.

Americans: How do Brits defend themselves against maniacs armed with knives?!?

Brits:
A tray of cheese & onion rolls, wrapped in clingfilm. The cheese is a huge thick slab of cheddar and the slice(s) of onion are a good 1 or 2 centimetres worth of raw white onion. The tray is on a wooden bar and there's a bottle of Heinz Salad Cream behind them.

I have no idea why we're supposed to take these threats by companies like Tesco seriously.
The boss of Tesco, Ken Murphy, has previously said that "enough is enough" on business taxes. The UK's largest supermarket said the higher National Insurance rate had cost it £235m this year, however, Tesco has upgraded its earnings outlook for the year, with expectations of full-year profits of between £2.9bn and £3.1bn.

A skeet from me saying "Note that they don't say which side they're advocating for." quoting a now-deleted post by Yer Party Scotland claiming that Your Party had more trans activists in it than any other party.

There's some interesting results in the "Our BBC, Our Future" survey.

This in particular, for example.
43% of you say the BBC is effective in being independent from the government of the day – which 91% of you say is important

Wait I've seen that man before!
A photoshop of JD Vance wearing a blue suit, blue shirt and pink tie, with chin-strap beard, fat face and a bald head. His eyes are staring into your soul. It makes him look like a big bald baby.

Gall & Gall you say?
The outside of a Gall & Gall liqueur store, ubiquitous across the Netherlands. The shop front is largely open, with a black storefront and a white sign "Gall & Gall, sinds 1884". There are shelves & displays full of alcohol inside the store.

A photo of a drink night out that looks like a renascence painting; a man lies spredeagle in the street with a pint in his hand and fag in his mouth, while multiple police officers try to deal with another man who's on the ground as a women shouts at them. Onlookers in the background are looking on nonchalantly. Sir Keir Starmer (Sir) at his Labour Party Conference speech saying "That's real Britain"
