Cardboard advent calendars are so much better than chocolate advent calendars. I didn't even like chocolate advent calendars as a kid. Give me some fantastic artwork of a robin and I'll a small square of shite chocolate some other time, thanks.

I think I can define my generation pretty accurately by being born just after cardboard advent calendars stopped being a thing.

I do remember advent candles though. I'd get one, but candle smoke is as equally deadly as sugar (probably)

I just never want to see anyone wringing their hands about how much they like The Newsagents in my replies again pleeeeease.
Turns out Jon Sopel is mates with Tim Allan the former board member of the hate group Sex Matters. They even recently spent the weekend together.

Suddenly when puberty blockers are given to cis kids, the Daily Mail (the same newspaper which backed Hitler btw) finally admits that "their effects are not permanent, and once a child lets their blocking treatment lapse, puberty will just continue as normal."

Which is true for trans kids too.
Because it’s cis kids.
The NHS will quite casually give cis kids whatever treatment they need, even PBs👇
No trials. No concerns about side effects. No moral panic.

I immediately thought they had to be joke names for the article. But they are genuinely a Cybertruck-owning couple Shawn Hyman and Nannette Vaglica (or Nan Vaglica for short, apparently)
Hyman and Vaglica fucking killed me 😂

I know that I look old, but when the GPs' Surgery thinks that 1933 is a plausible year of birth for me I do think that does push things a little far.

This is the sort of shite Jewish people globally are faced with in the aftermath of attacks.

Netanyahu is a war criminal, but Jews in Manchester have nothing to do with him or the state of Israel. Their murder was anti-semitic, not anti-zionist. Stop providing moral justification for terrorism.

What we really need right now is a rehashing of the trial by social media of Lucy Letby, no need for the actual appeal to be heard. It's like a high-stakes Depp v Heard.

A mad little story of brazen food PR nonsense, and a wider indictment of media context collapse in Ireland and everywhere else.

Excellent work by @allthefood.bsky.social
It doesn't matter if you're into food and restaurants, this is a must-read on the importance of fact-checking and subject-matter experts (and a mini exposé on how a particular food enterprise in Dublin is capitalising on its absence in Irish media). www.allthefood.ie/single-post/...
Is new Dublin restaurant Entrecôte connected to the French originals?
A few weeks ago this Instagram page appeared, announcing a "world famous French bistro" was coming to Dublin. Ears were pricked, and questions abounded about exactly which "Entrecôte" was coming to Ir...

--less than 30 participants, it looks like, who thought they were trans turned out to be cis.

MEANWHILE, a large group of the control, "cis" participants discovered that they were trans over the course of the study.

Looks like there were MORE trans participants at the end than at the start.

Having been put off knock-off Dr Pepper by Tesco's Dr Fizz / Fizzio, I got some Professor Pop from Lidl today. It does a slightly better job of tasting nice than Dr Pepper Zero, so I consider that a huge success.

A lovely lady brought her VERY YOUNG baby in to my show. The baby was very good and quiet and I asked the woman to give me the baby a few times ha ha etc. It only cried towards the end when I was slagging off JK Rowling so I reckon the baby is transphobic, a real shame.

The reason this candle is so luxurious and expensive is that it's made entirely from white dog poos
Can't help feeling this isn't a good name for a scented candle
