On the 52 to Hillsborough there were absolutely NO SURVIVORS.

A big orange bus with “People’s Network” branding.

Digging the look of the new buses for #Sheffield / #SouthYorkshire - “People’s Network” is a bit 'Continuity Corbyn' & yes it's 🇳🇱 Dutch AF (we've done this before, *cough* Tramlines branding) - nowt wrong with that. #YorkshireYorkshireYorkshire 🚌 #SYMCA

Fern Brady wearing a camera helmet on Taskmaster and opening the task, which has a red wax seal, and reading the contents. She has a purple set of coveralls on as well, which is just fun.

Oh, in that case is 'sea lioning' just shorthand for "I wish people wouldn't ask that question"?

Oh I'm sorry I had to look that up that terminology. I didn't realise it was a pattern of relentless questioning.

tbh I only know "yes" ,"no", "I don't know" and "who?" - Just not equipped for modern online debate.

Totally open question here:
Can asking questions on social media be considered a form of research?

A div is not a button.

Not even when you are building Doom in CSS. This one is for you @matuzo.at

That's unfair. He's not technically a proven sex offender. It's just that most of his friends have been.

*whispers*: Has anyone checked Morgan's laptop? #BBCLauraK

He says he likes Trump, but doesn't agree with what he's doing at the moment.

So the stuff with those young girls was cool. The bombing of Iran, less so.

At least he keeps you on your toes I suppose. All you need to know about Morgan's character #BBCLauraK

Piers Morgan decides it's time to be authoritative on defence & claims to have family in the forces. Makes his history - losing his job after distributing terrorist propaganda - even more surprising. Maybe he hates his family?

Do you watch the videos you post?

It's okay. Payment finally arrived after 8 months. Shoes for my kids. Shoes for everyone!

Switzerland refuses US military overflight Switzerland has rejected two overflight requests from the US military. The Federal Council is still examining whether the conflict between the USA, Israel and Iran qualifies as a war in terms of neutr...

In fairness to the Swiss, they probably just don't want these chucklefucks smashing together big beautiful birds full of gasoline all over their beautiful mountains and towns. Especially now that the USAF has adopted a 'Wacky Races' approach to flight plans: www.bluewin.ch/en/news/swit...

The Sky News chuckle hour.

I don't know what Sophy Ridge, War Daddy & the Other One think is so bloody funny on @news.sky.com - Iran is seriously kicking off, meanwhile London is under attack by copies of Ramiel, the 5th Angel from Neon Genesis Evangelion.

This is all really going to hit the motorist at the pump.

I only hear the term "payment run" when I'm getting paid more than 4 weeks late. It's *never* used in any other context #freelanceLyfe

Protesters with Iranian, Israeli and US flags gather outside City Hall, Sheffield.

Been a tough week, geopolitically speaking. But at least someone is having fun. 🇮🇷 Iranian Monarchists in #Sheffield celebrating the commencement of hostilities against the current regime.

Don't see the Israeli flag too often round here. Proximity to war memorial possibly accidental #Iran #protests

Still not caught any I see. Better luck next time x

The (slightly crap) #Sheffield BetterPoints app for 'active travel' has been broken for 13 days. Protip: Log out and login again.

Shame. I did miles a day on foot, bike and bus. That's like 0.3% of a free cup of coffee from selected retailers I'm missing out on. Back to the car! Out of spite, like.

Yeah go for it. It's not like you can ever have enough "I told you so" points.

[We see a close up of a young white male, tanned, white teeth, coiffed hair clearly an influencer on social media. It is an image such as you see when social media posts are shown on the news. In the corner of the screen is named a location: DUBAI. He is staring slightly off-camera for several silent panels of the comic strip. His eyes move slightly. He is having a thought.] From off-screen a newsreader’s commentary comes: NEWSREADER: Extraordinary images here of an expat in Dubai [The influencer’s eybrows raise slightly] …Having their first ever geopolitical thought. [CUT TO a BBC news scene. The BBC newsreader CLIVE MYRIE is talking to an interviewee next to the screen showing the social media influencer’s face. The interviewee’s name is David Jones]. CLIVE MYRIE: To explain the significance of this moment we’re joined by David Jones, our Expat Thoughts correspondent DAVID JONES: Clive, this is momentous It was caught on film at the end of an Instagram post titled: ‘Dubai Is Brilliant’. [Pointing at the screen, the influencer’s expression still the same] You can clearly see in the eyebrows here, the dawning realisation that there *might* be something in the world beyond his dickhead self. It marks a *huge* departure from all the Dubai Expat’s previous thoughts. CLIVE MYRIE: Which are…? DAVID JONES: You've Got To Get Yourself Out Here Mate, Everything Is So Clean, I Don't Have To Pay Taxes, I Am Incurious As To Why I Do Not Have To Pay Taxes, and Spa. CLIVE MYRIE: And might we see an expansion of these new Thoughts in coming days? DAVID JONES: I think we can expect to see: “I Deserve To Be Airlifted By A Country I Pay No Tax To” CLIVE MYRIE: Mmm.

Even though #WCAG AAA isn't always imperative, it's full of goodies - like timing issues - still of benefit to some of your users (*whispers* & may bring some conversion rate wins, fellow savage capitalists)

PVA band performing in Sheffield.

Great to see #PVA return to #Sheffield last night and Sidney & Matilda the perfect sport to see them. I spent ages with their first album and their 2nd deserves investigation by anyone after a bit of synthyness.

The web designer equivalent of catching mummy leaving coins under your pillow after swiping up your teeth.

Devistated.

smh. They're not even 'blimps' anymore.

Everything is terrible.
