the line about how trump is just trolling or joking about the “king” thing is belied somewhat by the fact that his administration’s explicit position is he can do whatever he wants and that everyone in every branch of government needs to bow to his demands or be banished

“This is nice behaviour, that I write to you again and again, and you pay no attention to me.” This almost 4,000-year-old Babylonian letter in clay is proof that we have been finding ways to say “per my last email” for some time

The algorithm keeps serving me americans getting upset about beans on toast, which made me crave beans on toast, and now I'm having it for dinner and wondering if it was actually all a marketing ploy by heinz

You can tell the people in charge are smart because one of them says "What if we forced this entire nation full of people who are barely holding it together off their meds" and nobody else says, you know, maybe not?

planes with dei: fly me to the moon and let me play among the staaars planes without dei:

I keep thinking my body has adjusted and then BAM! I suddenly get the strongest cramp I’ve ever experienced

World’s largely unprotected peatlands are ticking ‘carbon bomb’, warns study

I met my neighbours’ new puppy earlier, she is a very cute and very fluffy old English sheepdog. She’s going to be a proper dulux dog
