The crow is determined to prevent the next generation of Hawks! And those poor hawks can’t even get a moment of privacy! 🤣 #Birdsky

In the Beano this week Bananaman’s enemy General Blight becomes the head of DOPE - the Department of Pure Evil.

This statement about the transphobic Supreme Court ruling by the UK's Crab Museum (yes a museum about crabs) is better than 99% of the statements I've seen on the topic www.crabmuseum.org/visit 🦀🦀🦀🦀🦀🦀🦀🦀

Happy St George' Day!

[talking to the next cell] "what brings you to CECOT?" "i broke some university rules"

Today is the last day to apply for emergency photo ID to vote in the May local elections. www.gov.uk/apply-for-ph...

I am begging anyone with the ability to commission articles in my industry: let trans people write about what is happening to us right now.

The rhyme of history

When the veneer of discipline falls away.

This is a great 🧵!

Earlier today, my son showed me some mugshots of people who had been huffing paint… somehow I was just reminded of it 🤔

I’d forgotten about this little ditty… a classic!

Loving The Onion’s Pope Francis ‘Greatest Hits’… this is my favourite!

I think it’d be really funny if the White House ‘accidentally’ added Pete Hesgeth to a Signal group about the plans for him getting fired.

You can't report on this garbage without informing readers of the literal identical policy under Hitler. www.nytimes.com/2025/04/21/u...

Today we did kind of a test drive of the 50-foot leash and it went like this

Amazing! I totally lost it at “I think he was up there” 🤣

I love that NPR was first to report that Trump is shopping for new SecDef for this disclosure notice if nothing else. www.npr.org/2025/04/21/n...

Live your life so that when you visit the Pope and he dies the next day everyone’s first thought isn’t “bet he killed him”

Could JD Vance please also pray for the good health of Vladimir Putin?

There is more evidence behind the claim "JD Vance killed the pope" than there is behind the claim that any of the people renditioned to the slave camp in El Salvador are gang members.

Liz Truss: 'i killed the Queen' JD Vance: 'hold my lettuce'

You know that awful shriek dogs make when someone steps on their tail? I once knew a dog who learned that if he quietly placed the fluffy part of his tail under someone's foot and shrieked, he'd get a treat. Anyway totally unrelated but I hear transphobes are still finding things to be upset about

I didn’t say winning Feline Rear of the Year was a disaster. I said it was a cat ass trophy

Jesus: “Hey everyone, I’m back!” Disciples: “We hid some eggs for you to find.”

🚨

Just a reminder for those too young to witness, I grew up in a hyper toxic, homophobic, sexist and racist quagmire which was seen as ‘normal.’

Excellent!

Top punning!

I don't know if this is the best humpback whale breaching footage of my life, but I SAID IT WAS when I took it! 🦑

Seems a bit harsh to shut all the shops the day Jesus comes back. He might need a few bits.

“… he set fire to a pair of sex toys — including a rubber vagina…” JFC… what did he do to those things that he thought burning them was the only way out! Also, there’s no way he cleaned them first, so imagine the stench! (that will always be permeated into that bathrobe).

I was raised in an exceedingly Christian household, and have never forgotten the Doctor Who chocolate egg Mum and Dad gave when I was ten to impress on me the true meaning of Easter: ‘Remember, remember, our (Time) Lord Peter Davison spunking fire’

Angel of the Lord: He is not here, He is risen, just as He said. Come and see the place where He lay. And go quickly, and tell his disciples that he is risen from the dead. Alito: Okay, first of all, this violates ALL sorts of rules Thomas: This was a LAWFUL execution, who is God to interfere
