I was cooking Christmas dinner and drunkenly tried to tip some of the turkey juice into the toilet as the sink was full of pots. As I did this, the turkey slid from the tin and wedged itself into the toilet. I managed to unwedge it and returned it to the oven. I ate the gammon.

April 2022 Income Tax Threshold £12,570
April 2031 Income Tax Threshold £12,570

Should be about £16,970.

Meaning every person earning £16,970 or more is paying £1,231.86 more in tax.

Threshold freezes are a tax on the poorest.

beatmagazineMelbourne researchers link regular music listening to 39 per cent drop in dementia risk@monash_uni researchers have found that listening to music can reduce dementia risk by 39 per cent in older adults.A Monash University-led study of more than 10,800 people aged over 70 has linked regular music listening to significant reductions in dementia and cognitive decline.Led by Melbourne-based honours student Emma Jaffa and Professor Joanne Ryan, the research found that always listening to music compared with never, rarely or sometimes listening was associated with a 39 per cent decreased risk of dementia. Playing an instrument showed a 35 per cent reduction in dementia risk.Full story at beat.com.au 🔗Turns out all those hundreds of hours spent listening to records might actually be good for you after all! Happy listening.

An illustration of a young women yanking a weed out of a bed of marigolds. The primary colours of the piece are deep green and a saffron yellow, with some brown and moss green tones as well. The camera is looking up at the young girl with a forced perspective, as she pulls out the weed while leaning back. The text reads: PULL FASCISM UP BY THE ROOT.

Reupping for the 2025 #VinylSanta!
tomservosblender.bsky.social Leah Biel, MFA @tomservosblender.bsky.social · Nov 9
To the person who got me for #VinylSanta, hello!

I’d like to challenge you to go obscure, but I’m not unaccepting of the hits. I have a couple genres I don’t really care for, but I’m willing to be persuaded, so surprise me!

Check #vinylecstasy for some of my collection. I dig wheat and chaff!
Literal GPOY, and this is only *some* of my stuff.

Helpful hint : A quick way to see what your #VinylSanta recipient is into is searching under the Media tab on their profile.
If you don’t have any pics of what you like on your profile put some up. Links to external sites Insta/Discogs/FB are discouraged & have frustrated participants in the past.
A Bluesky profile with the media tab open.

I do post a lot of #NowPlaying️, so there should be plenty of pointers for my @vinylsanta.bsky.social, but I might get The Boy to do this again. #vinylsanta

As suggested by @vinylsanta.bsky.social, I thought I'd post even more records than usual, so I told The Boy that he couldn't have any pudding unless he pulled a random record off each of my shelves. After 10 he said "screw you, do it yourself" - my fault for caving in on the pudding deal #vinylsanta

In previous series of #BBUK the voice of big brother in the diary room, for instructions etc was various male and female voices. The ITV4 voice is always the same but apparently the voice is dubbed in post production for consistency.

🔔🔔🔔 #VinylSanta applications for 2025 are now live. Please see rules, regulations and directions below. 🎅
Welcome to Vinyl Santa 2025 For those that are new to this, the idea is for record heads to send each other a package of records to be opened on Christmas Eve. Similar to a regular secret Santa, we ask that participants maintain their anonymity. Participants will be given a recipient to send records to. They can then check out their VS’s timeline to get an idea of what they might be into. We ask that folks send £10/$12 dollars worth of records. Guidelines for records: Ideally from a thrift/charity shop but dollar bin or pulling from own collection is acceptable. Please do not use third parties to fulfil your VS as this has caused delays and upsets in the past. A good VS would be a few records (3 to 5) in good condition. Sending a tat record within a bundle is fine; sending all tat is not. And the records do not have to be Christmas records! This is Vinyl Santa, not CD Santa. Bulking packages so that they're primarily CDs, magazines, DVDs etc is not approved and may result in suspension from future VS's. The instructions… 1. If you wish to participate please drop us a DM with your name and address by Sunday November 9th. If in the UK, you'll need to verify your account to access DMs if you haven't done so already, or use a VPN. 2. There’ll be 2 draw pools: UK and USA. We’ll do Ireland too if there's sufficient interest. 3. We'll aim to let you know who your recipient is w/c Nov 10th. 4. We recommend you stalk your recipient’s timeline for clues as to their musical tastes. As many people are new on here this is a good opportunity to put up some posts to give your sender a few clues. 5. Please mail out in good time and be sure to mark your parcel #VinylSanta. Your recipient will likely receive many record-shaped parcels and we wouldn't want any opened early in error! 6. The tradition is to open parcels from 7pm GMT onwards on Xmas Eve and share photos on BlueSky of what you’ve received. This is important - if you're unavailable then by all means share a photo earlier but please do not leave it until after Christmas. 7. Please don’t participate if you’re not going to make good on your commitment and send a thoughtful and considered parcel.
