This cold has done the usual three days in, three days out. Then hung around in the background for a further three days and is back with a vengeance today. 2/10 would not recommend.

A Roman marble sculpture of four puppies, all curled up asleep together. Unearthed from the ruins of the House of the Faun in Pompeii, 1st century BCE, now housed at the National Archaeological Museum of Naples, Italy

Maybe the video is false flag George propaganda?

I would buy the capybari or the highland calves in a flash. And the floral one in the video is LOVELY.

I get yelled at for saying this but for many hundreds of years people went to university not to get diplomas or be employable but because immersion in the humanities was considered foundational to a good life, and school must return to its original purpose: the joy of learning.

This is what happens when your pitcher is always hanging out the passenger side of his best friends ride

Yes to this. I have no time for people who want the financially doping arm of a dodgy state to win the league because Mikel Arteta might occasionally be a bit up himself.

To pick up a conversation on commentary, only those at the very top think there's "too much" women's cricket.

e.g. West Indies' entire women's regional schedule for 2026 amounted to 9 games per side, played over the course of 2 weeks.

Scotland women haven't played a home international since 2022.

Thank you. A lot of people on here who would regard themselves as being opposed to the death penalty showing today that they are in fact not that fussed by it.

Aha! Should have remembered that. My late best friend in quizzing (TDC superfan) is looking down on me and tutting.

I’ve never been able to work out if he’s an annoying actor, or a talented actor who excels at playing annoying characters. This whole Oscar season is topping me strongly towards the former.

There was Ben Elton’s Saturday Live in the late 80s. Hit and miss but way better than SNL.

Nat says β€œI’ve been doing a lot of thinking about neurodiversity and connection – what it means to want community, to long to be seen and encountered, but also feel limited social drive and find being around other people systemically exhausting – and am finding this idea of the metaxu as something which both separates and connects, a link as well as a barrier, quite fruitful.”

Lovely, not least as another ex-Wanstead regular. This paragraph was a flash of light as an aged undiagnosed neurodiverse of some sort, thank you.
