Yes. But you shag *one sheep...*
'Wheelchair'....'spin it'. One can only hope...
I dunno. It was pretty eventful compared to others.
Some of Charles' car passed Kimi's
I was always astounded at the thought of a police station that seemed to be populated by six cops at most.
Stuff the Supreme Court with a set of bumfuckery who would die on the barricades for you and it seems you can do just about anything.
Also, she's German
That's a pretty hot take, you know. I do like John Oswald's take on Blue Jay Way, though

With you on the song and album. Worst might be TCoL, but it has some redeeming moments. For all that they are my favourite band I've only seen them once and it was a complete disappointment.
It will be the garlic crusher next...
Spare us. Take the money. I'll sign anything. Stop the pain.
He played a great sax solo
Drama teachers are similar to PE teachers. It's all about marshalling hyperactive kids through physical activities while realising your dream of being a professional athlete/actor has long gone.
I've seen this 'played' by a pianist who came out again for the same thing as an encore. The audience was actually headbanging to it.
He really had the most idiotic voice in all of music, I think. #Chapman #Family #Goat youtu.be/dcG4XFFrfqM?...
Someone once pointed out that the root of prejudice against Catholics in Scotland is because it's easier to say 'fuck the Pope' than it is to say 'fuck the Moderator of the General Assembly of the Free Presbyterian Church of Scotland' I think it's partly the same thing.
You're demented. Next thing, you'll be asking for coherent stories and actual acting.

Make Reform an illegal organisation and deport them immediately. Somewhere nice, of course. St Kilda, maybe.
Certainly a better effort than the flailing amateur who doctored up the photo of Innocent Prince Andrew with that girl.* *This is sarcasm, incidentally.
I could tell you about what they did to my digestive system once in 2003, if you like.
Another one clunks off the conveyor belt. Good lord this one was a struggle, though. Gninetsil yppaH! #ambient #electronica #skymusic #mellotron #soundscape #palindrone #I-SpyBooks
"I thought it was AI when I first opened up Instagram," [said] Chloe, who runs a Swiftie news fan account with 74,000 followers on TikTok "I couldn't believe it was real, then I realised it was their accounts that posted it," she said. "I immediately freaked out and text my group chat incoherently.
I am really hoping that the massive inbound comet will come sooner rather than later, along with all its annihilating sweetness and cleansing sense of oblivion. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...
'Desecration'?
Just like Frank Sina...oh wait. :-)
Names? You're kind of light on pronouns, aren't you?
Is that fucking worm still working the controls in his head? Said it before, I'll say it again: this twat has more brain damage than his Uncle Jack ever had.
If you stopped hitching yourself up to the Wankmaster 5000 (tm) then it might not mean that you have to beat it like a ginger child to get anywhere.
"Think of the rivers of blood spilled by all those generals and emperors so that, in glory and triumph, they could become the momentary masters of a fraction of a dot."
Wonderful stuff. There's a lifetime of inspiration in this one and #Rubycon.
To be fair, seven is a number.
I mean, I think I know the real reason why, but have they given a reason why they have done this?

I recall a story about him finding a nervous young woman at the BBC reception who was there for an interview. BC dashed into the Play School studios and brought out Humpty for her to hug while she waited. What a phenomenal guy.
I liked the revelation that Rick Jones and Lionel Morton were a pair of utter stoners.
Strangely, she looks a bit like the father of the blonde one from Abba.
“I was r*ped sometimes 3 times a day on that island… and I was not the only girl on that island… Ghislaine must die in prison, because I’ve been in hell and back for the last 17 years.” Listen to the survivors.
Their worst, I fear. By some distance.
Just noticed that apostrophe. Blame my phone for that one. #ApostropheWarCrime's
Finally got #Entitled by Andrew #Lownie and have got surprisingly far into it before realising that, had I annotated it every time I read something that indicated that the Royal Family should be nerve gassed, it's mass would be about 80% ink from my highlighter. @cheeseford.bsky.social

The wood at the bottom of the barrel would not be the biggest concern, then. I'd be concerned about the integrity of the Earth's crust.
I read Traitor King and was immediately struck by his style of writing, which is entirely lacking in sensationalism to the extent that it's possible to gloss over some of the most alarming bits. " Saw decorator re dining room. Tea and buns with The Hitlers. Drafts chapter 7 again. Retd at 11."
I should remind you that the Get Back TV series lasts about eight hours and was edited down from about sixty hours or raw footage. #ItGetsWorse
This is entirely my take on this story too.

And are they the others as well? Or they the same as we are? And if they are, then are there any others at all? Which version of reality do you prefer? Your own? Or that of someone else? Which way do the clock hands turn? Clockwise, you say? Not if you are the clock.
This is the prism through which we all observe one another: the strange distortion of the idea that there is a distance between us, when in fact there is none. Who are we? And who are the others? And why are they there while we are here? Who sets us apart? Why do they do this?
You're doing well here, aren't you?
So you were talking tripe. Wasn't Skagboys a novel written by a famous Leither?
Why did you say 'most Leithers are behind this', when the 25,000 or do within Leith ward have not been spoken to about it? Or are you just talking tripe?
I was about to ask you the same question.
I was there yesterday.
I think that was one person who did that. The locals have entirely different objectives in their lives. #Leith #SkagBoys
Depends on what she was making out of them. A net of a dodecahedron ? Sure. A scale model of the Eiffel Tower? Problematic.
Done that too. The dilemma now is this - do you stay and brass it out, or do you try and ghost out so no one thinks you were even there? #WorkplaceChoices
Time to bring on the cleansing fires of purging oblivion, I think. #Ai #WeAreDoomed
Perhaps that's because a substantial number of people voted for them, and that they are not in the minority. Amazing and repellent though it might be, this is what the USA wanted, and this is what it has got.
Good shout.
This is incredible! www.bbc.co.uk/news/resourc...
As much as I like his music, I have found this one just a little bit too much to take. It's not that the content is in any way, particularly different. It's just that it is so relentless and never really lets up. I passed up the opportunity to see it performed one time. I regret that now.
As the morally wizened Ms Arcuri once reminded us, it was like being 'shagged by a boulder'.
when we were not looking. No one knew why or when it happened.And still no one knew what it was there for, or for who. Some time soon there will be no one who remembers it at all. And if we cannot remember it, then it did not happen. That's what the truth is.
were sure it all meant something. And then we stopped thinking about it, because we became adults and had to think about better things like house prices and the government and new cars and binge watching box sets. One day, one of us noticed that it had just disappeared
It stands alone, cold and far away. Something that represents something to someone, but no one knows what or why any more. Sometimes we went to visit it when we were younger. The words were obscured by the weather wearing down the soft stone and spreading the bitter yellow lichen. Back then we
Favourite story about Pallas: their way of auditioning a singer was to see if he could sing all of 'Yours Is No Disgrace'. That's it. 'We were so naïve', reported one of them.

Yeah...saw that. 'Wales'

Maybe the person in the car *is* more important than they are.
Just when you think this newspaper could not mine the depths any further, it somehow manages to blast through the igneous rock to get that bit further.
This interview never really gets over the whole 'working-class' thing, does it?
I'm not sure if a song could be better written and performed...I've always found this simply stunning. It's almost unbearably emotional - like watching Jacques Brel pleading to a camera. #BeachBoys #Dennis #Brel
GENIUS Maybe the best live recording I have ever heard, ever. youtu.be/_ul7X5js1vE?...
There is much to love about this song, and maybe some to dislike about it, but seldom have I found a song so electrified by one chord change near the end. #Jam #Butterly #TennisRacquetOnATieInTheBedroomYesYouAliTaitRIPx
You'd never tire of getting Maurice Glasman in a set of stocks, and booting him up the hoop, would you? With steel-toecapped boots. Organise a rota. Make it 24/7.
I was within about ten yards of an opportunity to hoof #Farage in the nuts a few years back. I mean *properly*. Maybe even *life-changingly*. It's a source of immense regret.
Let's just say 'Woolly Wolstenholme'
Love that band, hate the band leader
So. Many. Bill. Nelson. Albums.
Consign them to the political wilderness. Forget all the milk shakes and symbolism: they thrive on that. Hit these stains where it hurts. GET OUT AND VOTE.
