@rhi.bsky.social I'm sorry to say that I have just come to the conclusion that your father's wonderful Oh-God of hangovers has been surpassed by the Oh-God of standing up from a chair.

Really like that, may not entirely work with my regular group, but it's always worth trying.
I'm not convinced though that I managed to get my head round the Rumor Mill system; Kalum, do any of the YouTube videos show it in detail please?

Every year on 19 December, the famous Christmas lights at Mousehole in Cornwall are dimmed between 8 and 9pm, leaving just the Cross and Angels shining down across the village and out to sea.

As a new Harry Potter trailer makes the rounds, it bears repeating that there’s no way to watch this show without supporting J.K. Rowling’s bigotry and the structural violence she’s inflicting on the trans community.
There is no ethical consumption of HBO’s Harry Potter series
You can’t without supporting Rowling’s transphobic bigotry.

a lot of people doubted how much the british media genuinely cared about integrity in academia and now is a great chance for the british media to prove that they’re not just gullible racists!
Just a reminder, Professor James Orr, Reform UK head of policy, teaches 'ethics' to undergraduates at Cambridge University

I am having such a hard time concentrating to read for pleasure this year. Only 14 books by mid August is unheard of. Is it the effect or the cause of the mental health slump? I don't know either way.😞

The man's skeletal injuries looked like a train hit him, but he died in 1304 CE. At #ppa26Berlin last week, @uniofbradford.bsky.social scientist Jo Buckberry concluded he was likely whacked by a flying boulder, making him the first confirmed trebuchet death in the archaeological record. @science.org
