This c*nt is now behaving as though he thinks he’s Leader of the World. It’s actually pretty terrifying.

The very first #RecipeOfTheDay of 2025 is – of course – Eggs in Purgatory. May it heal and revive you, and may the new year be kind to you 🩷 www.nigella.com/recipes/eggs...

So happy #duvetknowitschristmas has come to @bsky.app. It wouldn’t be Christmas without it. Essential follow

As always, #duvetknowitschristmas by the illustrious @rhodri.biz is a delight. I don't know why, but it always reduces me to tears. And something about the collective colour scheme looks like every family photo album from 1976. Don't forget to donate here: gofund.me/ac06a441

For any of my friends who haven't seen this before #duvetknowitschristmas is a wonderful Yuletide tradition. Enjoy.

This is absolutely appalling Terrifying actually www.thelondoneconomic.com/politics/rob...

A wonderfully uplifting story about groundbreaking surgery at Papworth, where surgeons transplanted a pair of lungs revived outside the body in a hi-tech box. Medical science doing its magnificent, awe-inspiring, life-enhancing thing 💙🫁🫀 www.theguardian.com/society/2024...

Spotted at The Vyne #NationalTrust, the most glorious Christmas tree flanking the entrance to the chapel 🎄 What would you add?

If anyone lost a monkey at the @maryrosemuseum.bsky.social this week, fear not, he's still here and having a lovely time. He is ready to go home though, so if he was with you, get in touch with us and we'll get him home for Christmas!

Hurray, delighted to see @maryjofoley.bsky.social is here and if you want detailed, thoughtful reporting of Microsoft, plus craft beer and cat content, she is a must-follow.

Tis time 🎄🥰

I love this map of places where sycamore gap tree saplings will be planted. They include the Rob Burrow Centre for MND and a plot in memory of a 15 year old girl killed by her ex-boyfriend. They stretch from the Orkneys to Cornwall. By @nationaltrust.bsky.social

Lifted a floorboard to turn the stopcock off due to a leaky pipe. Always nice to get a message from 90 years ago, the day Winston Churchill was warning the British that the Germans were re-arming.

Just checking in with you. Hope you’re all ok. x ✊

Fourth round of radiotherapy to the sound of Fame….I’m going to live forever. Someone has a sense of humour #cancer

Today's advent from Brian Dandridge - an almost pantomime proportioned, telescopically necked Great White Egret! Oh yes it is. Wonderful shot

Dad: It’s my birthday on Friday. I’m 85. Me: Yes I know dad I’ve sent you a card and a gift. I’ll call you too. It was my birthday last week. Dad: Was it? When you miss your late mum. x

As a Canadian, I say loudly and with deep conviction: what the fuck??
