People urge Downing Street to go fuck the selves with something large and splintery

Actual genuine lol. Very well done, you win the internet today

It is, but I felt you’d done the “5 words” bit nicely in the first place. Consider it more of “five words and a bit of a foot-note”

It’s at best pseudoscience and a scam, and also an actual cult

I was with you most of the way there (shout out to the chip butty), right up until that “pigs in blankets” abomination turned up. What in gods name has happened to them. Where’s the bacon, and why have they got that pastry nonsense on them? It’s behaviour like that this that explains the state of the world these days

Oh, you have the right to repair it, peasant, but we don’t have any obligation to ensure you can afford to repair it now do we?

One of my mates got his plums snipped in his 20s, still doesn’t regret it. Another of my mates spent his whole life saying he wasn’t going to have kids, and seriously considered the snip, but was grateful he didn’t when he met the now mother of his kids in his mid 40s. Life’s weird, and only (and sometimes not even) you can really know your own mind

One of the greatest songs ever written in my opinion

Mlem on my phone, I get on pretty well with it

Read that as “predate dinosaurs” as in “were predators of dinosaurs”. Had me worried for a second

What the actual fuck. I’ve never seen a pianola in action, much less thought about the music for them until today. This afternoon, we picked up one for a little festival, along with two crates of piano rolls, and got it working again. Now this pops up on my feed. Serendipity indeed

Mint. 80s VHS-quality special effects, a ton-foil sceptre, the random white wolf-headed girl, proper good nonsense

This is the correct answer

Yeah, would a panel farm at a heigh sheep can graze beneath not be lower impact? Stagnant water isn’t much of an ecological bonus, though the panels would be more efficient if the water cools them effectively

Crash into the examiner’s car in the test centre car park?

Appallingly. The old truck I spent most of the day in is basically all window, and now I am basically all crispy. 3/10, do not recommend

Deer herds reaching such vast numbers, and having no predators to drive continual migration means that they absolutely decimate saplings and young trees, they area huge problem in woodland management

They started trialling this around where I lived when I was a late teen, and my dad, who’d worked for a water company, was pretty convinced that the water companies knew this wasn’t safe right from the word go. He had worked designing and building sewage treatment systems, and even before microplastics were seen as an issue he was convinced that there would be no way to make this stuff clean or safe enough to go on farmland

Aww, come on, winding up oasis fans is practically a national sport at this point. The only people who rise to the bait faster are Radiohead fans

Surely they should be threatening Oasis with legal action for selling them in the first place. Calling that “music” is definitely one for trading standards
