This is Samsyhn. He's a rescue Great Dane who could be the world’s tallest living dog, standing between 39 and 42" at the shoulder. But officials can't confirm because he's too scared of tape measures. Still 13/10 (IG: fasttracksllc)

This is Kevin. He's a reactive dog getting some training to be more comfortable. His trainer brought him to a pet store for some socialization where they learned he is no longer reactive when given a giant stuffed dinosaur. 14/10 (TT: katieandtatesfostermates)

Best TikTok thing going is the two dudes trying food from every country without leaving NYC. If you haven’t seen them yet, it’s incredible. My favorite so far is last week’s. Legit got me emotional.

The jaw-dropping early C16th angel roof at St. Wendreda's in March, Cambridgeshire.
Sir John Betjeman said it was “worth cycling forty miles into a headwind to see.”
🤔 He was right.

Just watched the new Knives Out and I think it's really important you know that the scene in the Seminary's Gym is filmed in the same place Rick Astley filmed the music video for Never Gonna Give You Up.
I saw the window tracery and immediately made my friends pause the film so I could tell them.

I just woke up from a dream I was a lawyer practicing dog law. To be clear this was not human laws about dogs, but laws made by dogs. My client was dachshund who's dog bed had been moved by husky.

Oh God so much this. I don’t want Botox much in the same way I don’t gamble because that way obsessive madness would inevitably take me, but my God, I do think about it whenever I film a podcast.
will also add - yes, this is my personal crusade - that turning podcasts into videos implicitly asks women to once again make more effort than men, as the bar for "camera-ready" for one gender is obviously higher than for the other
‘Painful to hear!’ How podcasts’ rush to video is turning them into dreadful listens

Tonight is Christmas Eve, when we in Iceland open presents. All the Yule Lads have already come down from the mountains, but tonight the Yule Cat arrives and he will eat all the children who weren't gifted any new clothes for Christmas.

Woke at 0540 with England needing 40 odd, listened until Stokes out with 10 to win. Turned radio off and went downstairs to make tea. By the time I got back upstairs we’d won. Lesson: NEVER listen to England batting, it makes them nervous

I wrote a little thing about "Fairytale of New York" and about hope for a better year, but mostly I wanted to share the rendition of the song played at Shane MacGowan's funeral in 2023 because it's so beautiful. Happy Christmas, I love ya baby. dansinker.com/posts/2025-1...
