If you have over 200 years of inward migration, you end up with the USA. What’s his problem?

I’d be careful about blaming others for leaking classified information if I’d shared some on Signal with the EiC of The Atlantic.

The pronghorn antelope can run a mile in 89 seconds, due to its 300 mL/kg/min maximal oxygen uptake. Doesn’t need super shoes. #JustDoIt? It already can, by a lot. #Breaking4

It’s the exact same operation as Top Gun Maverick.

Regular reminder that Threads starts with “The Iran Crisis” and chronicles the end of civilisation. Six days later.

Given it’s the cricket again today, I can’t stop thinking about *that* declaration on the first day of the 1st Ashes test in 2023. Everyone seemed to think it was genius. It lost England the Ashes. 1/n

He’s really leaning into the “didn’t have any friends at school, college or work” persona.

11,888 murderers you say? Suspiciously close to that phone call where you asked 11,780 votes.

The confidence interval around Faith Kipyegon’s sub-4 attempt is anything from just sneaked it to dismal failure. I’m guessing just under 4:03 if all goes well.

Thanks for the reminder @janemunday.bsky.social. Every summer, I repost this article DROWNING DOES NOT LOOK LIKE DROWNING. To date, I know of FOUR kids who were saved after someone who'd clicked on the link learnt how to spot actual drowning. Take time to read and pass on. slate.com/technology/2...

“Most of you will enter a career-long salary sacrifice scheme because the coalition didn’t want to call it a tax, and universities are screwed anyway because they didn’t want the fees to rise with inflation.”

Students graduating this summer should be told the truth: flat, sensible, comfortable shoes. Nobody will be looking at your shoes, and your height doesn’t need adding to because you’ll be wearing a silly hat all day.

One thing that shocks me from all the footage of the US 'parade' that I've seen is that the US forces don't know how to march. They are out of sync with each other, arms all over the place. Would never do for similar events in the UK. They would be in serious trouble for a performance like this.

Your regular reminder that “bubbles” are a normal part of humanity and society, and it’s the unregulated mixing of them that’s the problem. It’s why diplomats exist.

We did a short march for Rememberance Day when I was in Cub Scouts (aged about 9). If we’d marched as badly as the US Army did yesterday, we’d have got a right bollocking.
