incredible effort from the Aberdeen travelling support first, drinking the 0930 Edinburgh to Larnaca dry, before then filling the waste tank with the resultant pish with 40 minutes to go.

@wendling.bsky.social i will assume you are not actively trying to mislead here, but come on man. the "three arrows" reference is a gaming reference to Helldivers 2. please hire someone who understands gaming culture to help you out because you cannot be this wrong on this grand a scale.

The song of the summer is a bummer | CNN
The most popular songs of the summer are either downers like “Ordinary” or holdovers from 2024, like “Die with a Smile.” Why is the music of 2025 so mellow?
