In need of a good Shag today?

We are here to help. This is the Heard Island Shag, an endemic bird only found in Heard and McDonald Island. We have about 1000 breeding pairs, depending on weather and food conditions.

May the rest of your week be full of gregarious Shags!

(Live from the Ice House) We will be replacing all past presidential portraits with mirrors. This does two things:

1) Doubles the number of staff here. 2) Gives our sycophants a needed break from telling us how stunning we look in blue suits and makeup

Thank you total legend @glosswitch.bsky.social for endorsing Flipping Patriarchy. "I loved this book! Funny & insightful, but also fiercely radical, highlighting all the subtle & not-so-subtle ways in which 'empowerment' and 'be kind' narratives justify women's exploitation & damage our self-esteem"

You know the usual trips of language confusion, compounded by the Byzantine nuances of English intention? Case in point: “we don’t do corkage” understood today as “yep: BYO for free”. Which gave me the opportunity to reach for this - thanks to the fab book Alchemy by Rory Sutherland:
