I get that the news cycle is packed right now, but I just heard from a colleague at the Smithsonian that this is fully a GIANT SQUID BEING EATEN BY A SPERM WHALE and it’s possibly the first ever confirmed video according to a friend at NOAA

10 YEAR OLD ME IS LOSING HER MIND (a thread 🧵)

Literally everything wrong with the internet in one exchange.

Reggie Walsh better rock up to one of his GCSE exams wearing his winners' medal.

Never imagined sailing would be so lonely. It's rare to be somewhere long enough to make meaningful friendships with locals, and other cruisers are so transient in the Caribbean that when you do make friends you've got like 3 intense days before you have to say a goodbye that could be forever

Sorry but it's objectively hilarious and an apt summary of Starmer's Labour that Sky News have filed them under "Other"

The thing I loved about Nkunku was his utter commitment. He'd throw himself at the ball to get a chance last year. Since December he's not cared at all. All the french players have dropped off like that actually

Tinned mango isn't the one. It's like a smooth soup.

Would be okay if I could freeze it and turn it into sorbet, would actually be immaculate if I mixed some tinned passion fruit in with it. But I don't have that luxury at the moment.

Ultimately we all just want to be an active part of a small collective which we can have agency over and take responsibility for

When that's what everyone is after, then why is it so difficult to find that?

Winning against Tottenham should feel like ecstacy. Maresca has made it feel like winning against Norwich

Give it' billy til' end o'season #MarescaOut

Genuinely reckon he'd be more able to get the best out of the players than this dogmatic sideways bullshit Maresca insists on playing

Discovered @chelseafcn.bsky.social's kit inspiration for this season, the Sargasso sea

First new years at anchor, wow

Stuck in a whitecap anchorage with no engine is not fun.

I know it's Christmas season and all, but do you have any idea how confusing this lighting setup is at sea? lmao

Saw the widest boat in the world today, it's not what you'd think it is

Calling my next boat "gullible" so people go "hey it says gullible on that boat"

Maiden voyage went well 🐬

Aside from the 7 separate dolphin encounters, we had; Warm days and freezing nights, 4 metre waves and total becalming, a full moon that rose from the horizon, a rainbow at night, distant thunderstorms with endless rainbows, so so many stars

Can't believe this is my life

I always enjoy the satellite imagery for anchorages, it's like looking at loads of ghost ships

It sorta encapsulates the nomadic nature of sailing life. You never have time to put down foundations, only fleeting connections and fading memories
